I wish my Father had lived long enough for me to ask him about his experiences in the Second World War.
I would rather read the books. 
I often write veteran stories … Some as historical fiction like “In the Shadow of Suribachi” which is a fictional rendition of my dads experiences at Battle of Iwo Jima plus several other marines. I also have written bio/histories with vets like “Lucky Enough” by Eddie Beesley who lost both legs when he stepped on a mine in Vietnam in 1965 … And “The Road to Iwo Jima” by Tom McGraham who recently passed away but his book is still available.
Also did s book called “Sunchon Tunnel Massacre Survivors” about 250 of our POWs who were shot in North Korea in 1950. Only 33 survived the night. We covered the stories of nine.
There are lots of others we cover as articles in blogs and magazines. And there are two who have passes mans their families withdrew the books … One is by Bikly Templeton about the Bataan Death March and the other is “In the Blink of an Eye” about a frog man at Iwo. I post many of theses stories on Facebook along with pictures too … All this month focusing in Iwo Jima.
Thanks Nate.

My dad was a bombardier in a B-17. He NEVER told any stories about any missions he flew. The farthest he’d ever go was to state that he figured he was the most important man on the aircraft, because the sole purpose of any mission was to get him to a particular place so he could work for 3 minutes. He did have a pair of stories about how stupid the group’s operations officer was.
Haw! Let’s steal his lunch money!
Thank you, we’re off to Amazon!
Welcome! I have ordered one of your books on Amazon.
I’m sure I can find embarrassing out somewhere … Lol my dad had a major breakdown when I was 10 and they gave him weeks of shock treatments … When he came home, he couldn’t stop talking … Plus I had great resources through Marine Corps and other vets …
A few years ago, I was a part of a radio show dedicated to the Sons and Daughters of Iwo Jima. It’s an hour long but I think a good show …
Thanks for book buy…
My Dad could have told some stories, he was a whiskey drinking poker and pool playing Texas country boy roughneck and I’m sure he learned all his bad habits in the Army Air Corp. Edward Jablonski’s book Flying Fortress is a great read, it’s an old book but covers everything you could want to know about the bombing campaign in Europe and also has lots of great individual stories in it.
BuckChongo … Ever think of writing your dad’s stories down?
I say this with no disrespect for the necessity of recording in fact and expressing in fiction forever the experience of war’s individual hells and experience; in fact, humbly in gratitude to those and family posting here: perhaps only Primo Levi’s If This a Man ranked with E.B. Sledge’s With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa (Amazon.com) as a modern memoir that continues to inform my day-to-day understanding of the blessedness of peace.
