my apologies if the topic came off as "fun" war stories. by no means did i mean to imply that these are fun stories, mostly my gramps and my uncle never talk about them unless they get around other veterans, which was the case with my gramps, got to spend some time luckily with him at his local vfw (veterans of forein wars) and got to hear all types of interresting stories. i only wish i had a tape recorder as i was too young and dont remember most of them, i just remember at being in awe of the horrors endured by these ordinary men that were put into extrordinary curcumstances. every one of them will tell you that they are not a hero, the only heros of war are the ones that didnt make it through alive.
i like to hear and share stories of these brave men who died and made it through these horrible wars so there sacrafice is not forgotten.
