Dads only older brother Roy. His remains did not come back for 2 years. Dad was in the Philippines at the time fighting in Manila, then awaiting the land invasion of Japan. And people wonder why I still refuse to buy Japs cars. So glad we dropped the A bomb as a land invasion might have, in all probability kept me and brother John from ever being born
