your uncle lied about his age to join the war? actually, it was quite common. or are you asking if your tearing up is normal? very normal. it was a sad time and i think it's good that you understand the fate of many men and boys who fought for our country.

Yes. During WWII many young men would lie about their age to fight for our great country. My father did. He was 16.

Yes, it is. War causes many tears, even many years later.
