My uncle Harold was a navy medic on Omaha beach. Saw a lot, no doubt.
He also served in a MASH unit in Korea, and volunteered to serve in Vietnam to save his 4 sons from being drafted. Uncle Harold, the only boy of 7 offspring, was an absolute hero as far as I’m concerned.
And so were all that took part in that invasion.
If they knew what their country was to become in present times, I wonder if they’d have been inspired to fight as hard.

Re I wonder if they’d have been inspired to fight as hard.:
I ask the same question.
Thanks for your family history lesson. I really like reading all these memories.
