[QUOTE="scratch, post: 81953, member: 1674"] Good story Moreluck, I have an uncle, his name is Billy Willingham, he was one of those young Marines on Iwo Jima and a couple of the other island invasions. I have another uncle who aimed a bomb site out of a B-29 bomber over Japan. My own father carried a machine gun across Italy and used it against the Nazi army. All these men in my lives went straight out of High School as teenagers to serve their country. They never would talk about what they went through, the horrors they saw, only about where they went. They were truly "The Greatest Generation" . [/QUOTE]
