I went to visit my grandparent's today. I haven't seen them in almost two years. My grandfather fought in WW2. He was stationed in the Phillipines, New Zeland, and Japan. He said his troop was the one that helped Manila, Phillipines get their independance and then he was also stationed in Yokohama, Japan. He showed me a lot of his war pictures (which I've seen before). He also showed me a yearbook of sorts from his hometown which had pictures of people that had served. I guess his troop was also passing through some place in Japan when the peace treaty was signed.
I'm very greatful for those who have served (and always have been). I hope they get a WW2 memorial up sometime in the next 10 years. I think it's very important that we recoginze those who fought in that war!
