I had an uncle that served in England(support unit)and another on the USS Idaho battleship in the Pacific.
The uncle in England had orders to go to the Pacific after a brief rest in America.
Thank God for the A Bomb.

My Old man was going under the Golden Gate Bridge on his way to the invasion of Japan the day the war ended, tossed his Chiefs Hat over the side, only part of his day uniform I Don't Have.

I have a great uncle buried in Russia after his merchant marine ship was sunk by the Nazis.
