I have an uncle that was with the marines that landed at Iwo Jima, among other places.

My mother in law was a school girl in Japan during the war (my wife is 1/2 japanesse). I have asked her about those times a couple of times, but she never really seemed to want to talk about them. The most I could get from her is that one day things were fine, the next they are being tuaght how to fight with spears, then hiroshima, nagasaki and the war is over. All she will say is that times were different then and I didnt want to press her anymore.
