As a native here in San Diego, with both the largest active and vetern military in the world,
I know many who served in WWII and speak with them often.
I live less than 3 miles from Marine Corp Recruit Depot, San Diego where most of the Marines in the Pacific went through and I am around 45 miles south of Camp Pendleton here in San Diego, home of the 1st. Marines, over 40,000
And, I am around 12 miles from Mirimar Marine Air Station
here, Home of the 3rd Air wing.
My Dad was in the Marines in WWII and at the Frozen Chosin and Inchon Landing, Korean War
I currently have several Marines relatives serving in Iraq and Afghn.
I hear first hand About the Pacific in WWII along with Marine history.
I also know the results of Hitler, with my neighborhood having many many dozens of people a few years out of the Nazi concentration camps with their numbers on their arms.
You call this revisionist crap, I call these people who
knew war first hand, heroes.
Give it up. I wasn’t calling you a revisionist. I do know that FDR was an a**hat and nearly cost us the war in the Pacific. He caused many Marines to die for nothing at the Canal, Marines that would not have died had he properly equipped them. You think you are the only one who knows veterans? I know many of them and almost all of them hate(d) FDR because of his BS. As I said, think what you want, but don’t try to convince me FDR wasn’t a jerk and ran the war poorly because history shows the truth.
