My Dad's dad, was a Marine Pilot in the PTO. He flew a Helldiver and was shot down twice. Both times rescued in a little rubber raft in the Pacific and sent back to battle.
My Mom's dad was in the Army, but was shot in the knee during his training and was not sent over to Europe.
Most of my Great Uncles were in the war as well serving as pilots in the PTO.
