My grandmas brothers both were in ww2 and so was my grandpa.. My great Uncle Alfonso was on the USS Missouri i think.. I dunno.. he was an AA gun feeder.. Anyway they told him never too look up, and during a Kamikazi attack he decided to look up. He must have seen planes comming right for him becuzz he abandoned his post and ran, about 15 seconds later the plane had hit the AA gun where he was.. He never forgave himself for that, so he went nutz.. He never talked at all to any1.. NEVER after he came home.. When i was at a family renunion a plane had flew overhead and my grandpa covered her ears and ducked a lil bit.. Uncle Alfonso turned to her with a blind look and said "You should have been were i was" and never said anything again...
My other Uncle went AWOL after a battle in New Guienea and moved to Australia.. LOL he had about 6 beautiful Australian women on his nutz too. When he came home he was pretty normal. He showed me some of the chics pictures but never spoke of the battle
My Grandpa was an MP.. It was pretty fun from wut he told me. His freind went to Omaha and survived but was wounded. When he got wounded they transfered him to where my Grandpa was staying back here in the States.. He told him about the landing.. "I remember getting off the boat.. Trippin over a leg (dont know if it was attached or not) The Sergeant yelling something.. A guy getting his stomach shot and his bowels pouring out, then heat in his leg and passing out..
