A grandfather is telling his grandson war stories.
“At the end of World War One, I was awarded for my bravery after saving a group of my men,” the grandfather says. “You see, we were fighting in northern France and one of our enemies threw a grenade at us. I managed to pick it up and throw it away before it exploded. So right after the war ended, a General gave me a sword, engraved with the words ‘Awarded for Bravery and Valor, A True Hero, World War I’.”
The grandson thinks about the story for a minute and then says “Grandpa, that story can’t be true!” How did the grandson know?

The “Awarded for Bravery and Valor, A True Hero, World War I” gave it away. World War I was just simply known as the World War and it didn’t have its numerical title until or after the 2nd World War. Thus, it’s a fake.
I remember this riddle before. You are today’s winner!
(Don’t know where riddle dude is, so Ill help him out)
Correct Ryver, you are today’s winner.
The General wouldn’t have known that it was “World War I” when he engraved the sword
