Excellent review...
I’m old enough to remember the joy and celebration of the first raid on the Japs... I was 8.5 at the time...
In particular, my Dad, who had joined the Marines in January, was home on furlough...
It was the last time we would see him until 6 months after the war ended...
Wow. We forget that, don’t we?
Not so see your father for three or four years. Or never.
