If you have a spare 10 minutes and 55 seconds, I highly recommend this YouTube. I found myself simultaneously laughing and cheering. I love this guy, I absolutely LOVE HIM. I couldn't find his name, and if anyone can please ping me. I'd LOVE to reach him or his family and tell them how much I appreciated this.

WWII Marine Talks About How Evil the Japanese Were

Funny you should mention that. My father bought a 1986 Honda Accord after the trouble he had with his POS 1982 Dodge Omni. My uncle (a Chevy station wagon
man) asked him how he could buy “a Jap car”. He said that he could fit in it (he was 6’4”) and he could afford it.

My Dad was in the Battle of Manila. He saw what the Japanese did there. When we were little e told us about the goofy things they did in the Army. When we got to draft age and Viet Nam War was at its worst, he didn’t want his sons to go. He told us about some of the horrible things he saw.

It was always understood (mostly by mom and dad) that I would grow up to be a Marine, just like my dad.

When my WWII, China, Korea, and Vietnam veteran dad got off the plane from Vietnam at El Torro, he hugged my mom, gave her a big kiss, then hugged me, held me at arm’s length, locked eyes with me, and said “If I ever see you walking and you start with your left foot, I’m. Breaking. Your. Leg.”
