GrauGeist
Generalfeldmarschall zur Luftschiff Abteilung
I grew up hearing the accounts first hand from those who were there. But the interesting point is what I heard.
One Uncle held absolutely no appreciation for the Japanese at all. He carried this attitude from his first battles in the Solomons all the way to his grave. My other Uncle (as well as my Great Uncle) held no grudge against them at all and never had anything unkind to say about the Japanese people in general.
Two very different (and emotional) perspectives on the same subject.
