My Dad, who turned 92 last week, also does'nt talk much about his service in the Pacific theater while serving in the army during WW2. He and a childhood buddy of his by the name of John Basilone came from a small town in New Jersey, Raritan. My father was in the National guard at the time of Pearl Harbor so he just stayed in the army. John Basilone joined the Marines. Google John Basilone Guadacanal and see just what these guys were made of. God bless America and all the servicemen who made this country great.
