During a lull in the fighting, Dad was sitting in the mud drinking coffee from a metal cup, and set the cup down for a moment. When he picked it up again, as he was sipping the coffee, he noticed that he had set the cup on the chest of a dead Japanese soldier. It always bothered him that he was not bothered by that.
