They were following orders. Many of us have done the same albeit with not nearly as much on the line. I'm sure they looked at it like that. They didn't know they were untimely saving the World ...They were just following orders and fighting for their Brothers. And the fact that they were still here years later missing pieces and not sleeping well they probably thought they got a deal. Hero's !!! America is different today.
My grandfather landed 2nd wave. He never said a word about it.

I particularly like these quotes:
“In the end, maybe what Andrew Jackson Higgins' life and contributions best show us is that a once-expelled student who became a hothead, cursing, bourbon-loving "normal American with normal struggles" can change the world. And you don't have to be famous or have fortune to do it. You don't even have to leave your own backyard. Most of all, we learn that sometimes the key to success and victory is thinking smaller, not bigger, just as Higgins did with his LCVP boats.
Higgins' life reminds me again of the words of D. L. Moody, who once wrote next to Isaiah 6:8 in his Bible: "I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. What I can do, I ought to do, and what I ought to do, by the grace of God I will do."”
My great uncle (married to my grandma's sister) served in Europe... Don't think he was involved in D-Day but landed shortly afterwards.
Grandma said he rarely mentioned it... But if he had been drinking he would slip and tell a few things occasionally... She only ever relayed one of the stories he told. And it was some horrible ugly stuff.

When I was 21( in 1976) I worked with an ornery old guy who was a medic in the second wave on Omaha Beach and ended up going all the way to Germany in May of1945. Our supervisor was a Navy corpsman on Tarawa and at Iwo Jima. Two of the finest and hard "old men" that I I ever had the pleasure to work with and for. RIP " Moose" and C A !!
I don’t know but makes me want some chocolate!

My grandpa was in Europe during the war and he never talked mush about it. Only told me he slammed his hand on a tank lid and that was the reason he had no fingernails on his one hand. Also showed me a German Luger he acquired during the war. Wouldn’t tell me how he got it, but we all know how that went down. Other that that, he would always change the topic if we asked about the war.
Just ignore his ass, like literally set it up so you can see the bullshit he spews, life is happier.
I never tried to appear to be a victim, he made an ass of himself and I merely helped. Ive been an idiot ever sense because I didn’t let him w(h)in(e). I don’t even care, it’s fun I’d talk to him about normal shit right now the internet isn’t real life.
You sound like a crotchety old man too, you should be friends.
And do things a 25 year old won't.
25 year olds are a little different these days, they were brought up on freaky shit. Half of them pay bills selling asshole pictures lol
