I had two uncles in the navy and army (sherman tank driver)at the time, both with great stories and alot of respect for the germans who I was told were tough SOB's. I also have two customers that were in the war and still with us today. One piloted a Higgins boat on Dday and is a member of his LST organization and the other was a B25 pilot and was shot down only to be helped by the underground to return to his forces and fly a total of 42 missions ( before the Memphis Belle rule went into effect). As I was told by them it was a different time. They didn't know what lay ahead you just did what you were told. Great guys during tough times.
