Good pic of the day! I had a uncle my favorite out of 6. Anyway he is gone now, but I remember him telling me about Pearl harbor when I was a young boy (he was there that day a Marine). Well his daughter ended hooking up with a Japanese fellow and they decided to get married, this would have been the 70s now. He was not very happy about it, for obvious reasons.
One Christmas about a year later at a family gathering we were talking about different things, he said to me.
Seems like not long ago, though it was. I was killing these people to no end, day in and day out, and they were killing my friends, now I have a house full of them. As a kid it really scared the hell out of me, and I will never forget it.
He did come to know and love the guys family and it all was good. I know in his heart it was something that was hard to live with, though he never let it show to anyone.
