re: #57 Barefoot Grin
In a related note, the last Japanese survivor of the Battle of Peleliu died a couple of days ago at age 98. He had become something of an anti-war activist, apparently.
Thanks for posting this .
My father Capt. John S. Todd (Ret.) USMC. Lost his leg and another Marine was killed in a shell crater when another artillery round landed in the same hole.
Peleliu will be ingrained in my families history for a long time.
I see the island now gives me some feels…….
