Last year I read Jeff Shaara’s book, “The Final Storm”, about the battle of Okinawa. It still haunts my memory.

What our Marines did there merits all of them being awarded the MOH posthumously for the dead, and with full national honors for those still living.

It was chilling, disturbing.

Yes. More than I can comprehend.
