I'll bet he has some stories to tell. Although, if he's like a lot of those guys, he may not be eager to talk because of bad memories.

My father pass away a few years ago, he did not like, to talk about the war to much. My father was a tank driver in the 6th Armored Division, he was wounded many times. He landed on Utah Beach in Normandy, took part in the Battle of the Bulge, and many other battles, plus freeing Allied prisoners of war and the notorious German Concentration Camp at Buchenwald, he drove his tank right through the Front gate. He saw the bodies and said to could smell the odor up to twenty miles away.

This is why I give the Jews and Israel the benefit of the doubt and support Israel.
