Skull works post inspired me to share my own. This is also my grandmothers brother. He never married or had any kids. And of course never talked. If this article had never been printed it would never been known by us.

I hope you can read it.

Very good reading of what that soldier did and went thru.


Get the F out of the BATFE. The F is guaranteed by the US Constitution. Those other letters are not.

Yeah great story. Japs were referred to as Nipponese back then! It's still valid grammar just few folks use that term
