Dad brought hundreds of pictures back which we kids were too stupid to save. One showed pits filled to the top with human bones.

The stench in the pacific battles was overwhelming no wonder many of the men started smoking just to survive it.

Horrible things were seen by our Dads. My Dad was in China-Burma-India theater of war.

I also lost some very neat pictures our Dad had from the war.

Artillery or mortars would hit rotting dead bodies and pieces and maggots went everywhere and covered the troops.
