Those old guys were really something. God Bless Him.
I'm finishing up a book now, With The Old Breed by Eugene Sledge. It is about his experiences as a Marine in WWII with a mortar squad in Peleliu and Okinawa.
Very good read.

I have dived around Peleliu and took the opportunity to walk among the abandoned war wreckage on the island, both US and Japanese, including downed aircraft and tanks. What a hell hole it must have been.
Incredible! If you can, please pass along my highest thanks and salute. Godspeed to one hell of a warrior!
A real war horse from the old breed! God speed to what sounds like a great man!
Your Grandfather has balls, really really massively huge made of steel balls.
