My Grandfather was 1st Marine Division Guadalcanal he passed away in 1971 from lung cancer I was 1 year old I'm a Grandson of uncle Sams Misguided Children it's an Honor and I Have the most Respect to you Thank you for courage and Keeping America Free 🇺🇸
God bless you 🙏 ❤ Mr Billnitzer for your service to our country.. You were in some instances of pure evil and hell. Thank you for sharing your story and helping to enlighten future generations. Thank you Rishi for continuing this incredible labor of love 💘.. God bless you for your work and God bless our veterans from all the wars. WWII was bloody hell for many. I'm from Michigan and I heard him mention it a couple times.
Thank you sir for your amazing service to our great nation, the war in Pacific must have been so brutal, I read a lot about it and it’s hard to imagine how sadistic the Japanese were at that time. Our boys over there gave so much and I’m very very grateful, God bless you sir
God in heaven,...I would be proud , just to shake your beloved grandfather's hand . I personally am very proud to be an american.but to me.....a 1rst marine , who possesses the combat infantry badge , and if his service was during the second world war .....if there is such a thing as a "hero" a 1rst marine division soldier during WW2 fits the bill . I recall seeing film of Marines in the back of a truck...when they were relieved, on Guadal canal...there are no words that could describe the looks on their faces . What men ...in my opinion this was what a hero looked like .what does a real man look like? A 1rst division combat marine in WW2. Guadal canal...new Georgia ...Munda...Tarawa ...iwo jima , what a glorious record. The Solomon's...the Caroline's....all those islands.you must and should be extremely proud . My father fought in the European theatre...North Africa.. Sicily..Salerno , and was wounded and captured at a place called Anzio. To hear one of these combat veterans tell their personal story , is something rare...and valuable... so many of these stories are lost forever .the fighting men of the united states of america and their sacrifice , were truly...the greatest generation in world history. I am proud to be an American.....and these days a lot of loudmouths put the U.S.A down. I say go fuck yourself and get the fuck out .I will love my countey till the day I die....and consider myself as lucky to have been born in the greatest country there ever was.....or will be. Because we're free ......because the culture raised such young men as my dad a your grandfather. God bless the United States of America!! No substitute for VICTORY!!!!!! May we always........ "Go For Broke" Semper Fidelis
Amen. We are all God's children... No room for all this biggotry... get rid of of this critical race theory and teaching our children to hate each other.
I love these interviews. I wish there were also pictures shown of when they were Young and the places and things they tell of. I also wonder why you sound like You are shouting across a empty room.
Morphine is a blessing when you use it for pain.....but it becomes a curse from hell if you take it for recreation. If you take it for pain its easy to come off of but if you take it for recreation its a nightmare to get off of.....i speak from personal experience. Worst time of my life but I got over it....thankfully before resorting to the kinds of behavior that causes family and friends to disown or push you out of their lives.
Maybe ppl should just STFU and lay off all Race bulls##it and focus it towards more productive matters like Jobs moving overseas and people hurting at home. I LOVE these 100 million dollar commercials on the Television or radio about these Major companies donate 1 million dollars to some Corona organization that's owned by them and they get a tax write off for it. That caring music they play and that soft voice that explains how Big Corporations CARE. What a fuc#ing scam. People are so ignorant and play along..... because they care too. Yeah ok.
@@haydenlogston2164 Please tell me you're not that damned stupid to believe the party you support is not responsible for what led to the anger and unrest that ultimately resulted in the assault on the capital.
Couldnt believe interviewer said the African Americans stories werent as good as his because he didnt see combat!! Everyone that served was valuable! This great couldnt have succeeded without support
Interviewer, doesn't know so many things about American life just prior to WW2. Only, about 10% of Americans went to college prior to WW2. Many American military Officers had no degree during WW2. Hell, many Americans had no.birth certificate, it was not required when they were born. A full, 12 year high school diploma was just becoming the normal, but many only had 6 years of school.
@@RememberWW2 Oh when a vet is telling a story about a battle, and says for instance, hes taking fire, and hes asked " who was shooting at you?" Kind of a silly question. Can sometimes hear the frustration in the mans voice.
@@RememberWW2 I appreciate you finding these men and getting their stories. Maybe listen more to them with less questions. Just let them tell their stories
Hi Sir, you have to understand that those "dumb questions" as I call it are done on purpose. The interviewed will be edited with my voice taken out eventually so we need to have as much in the veteran's words as possible to make the story flow otherwise it would be a bunch of they and them which can be confusing for people who don't know about the particular battle etc....
@@RememberWW2 I guess from my point of view, im being a little critical. You are doing a good job overall. Thank you for getting these stories for future generations. I suppose for people who aren't familiar with WW2, they may not know who we were fighting! So with that said, I apologize for my harsh assessment.

When a ww2 marine hero vet says we don’t need bigotry in this country, you listen to him.

Used Iodine tablets in Viet Nam. It does add taste, ha.
Interviewer is so ignorant!
Can you be specific?
