The WWII Relatives thread
.
I posted this pic on another thread, these are my parents. My father joined the Army after Pearl Harbor and island-hopped around the Pacific, the Marines took the islands and for he most part the Army cleared and held them. He had a framed picture of Gen. Douglas MacArthur above his bed until the day he died. I have 3 photo albums full of pictures of his time in the war, they are full of some of the most horrible pictures of dead Japanese soldiers(the had to count the casualties for record keeping purposes), and there are also some great pictures of him and his men posing with topless island women.:D
