My dad was deeply affected by this war often. More than anything else he drank. Which we were? All victims of that. He loves to so we love him so he was a brave man.
My father, whose name is not on the flag also turned to alcohol. From many families I have heard stories like this and also wonderful stories. For what the men went through it seems it changed them all when they came home. Most families say their loved one never spoke of the war once they returned. When this flag surfaced I know it has brought joy and excitement to the families and the men that are alive Trunks in the attic have been reopened, memories relived and stories passed on now through the generations still alive.
My husband was in both Japan and the Phillipines and his name is on the flag. He never talked about the war, never watched war movies so we never heard very much about what he went through. My children are very Interested in the flag.
My father Albert Ford Cole signed the flag,he also served sentry duty in Japan. He never spoke about the war. he passed in 1995. I am very grateful to Debbie for sending me the FLAG.
My dad James D Smith didn’t sign the flag but he was on corregidor and received a Bronze star for his part in taking out a pill box.He never talked about the war.He suffered with depression his whole life and mom use to tell us it was because of the war.he’s gone now but I still thank him and others who served in that war for what they did.

Daddy never talked about his time in the service. I like learning about his time served, where he served.
