Makes me wonder how many people I’ve known with stories like this....

Book marked for later, thanks.

My grandfather was in WWII, but he passed away before I was old enough to ask him about it. I know he was involved in aviation and I have a few old silk aviators maps of Japan from his estate . The family never talked about it, and now most everyone who knew him has died.

It would be great to so back and record the stories all these men had of the war.

See someone in a retired military hat, shake their hand, they all have great stories.

I talked to a retired army man once (happens to be the man with the longest active service in army history) who stormed the beaches at Normandy. He was probably 90 at the time I knew him and his recollections we’re amazing.

Thanks for sharing.
