Our son was also tall. (Now nolonger with us). My uncle, his son, was also around 6.4. So it's in the genes. My grandfather was blessed during ww1. He was at many of the blood baths involving the Australians. He was no more than cannon fodder. But survived. (He was recommended for bravery awards but refused due to his 'off field' activities!) Albeit in the lockup at the end of the war. Long story but it involved women and wine in Paris!! It's a noble project you are on. I love the stories people post. The ANZAC and Canadians were the tip of the spear late in the war. They were also the highest paid, so could get into the most mischief in town.
