They were better men than I'll ever be.
I remember a story my grandfather liked to tell about going ashore on Utah. He was driving a little thing (Not a jeep he said, but something smaller. I can't remember correctly), and when he went off the ramp it was just a touch too deep. Only one wheel was touching, so he was spinning around in a circle. He said he kept seeing splashes all around him. He said he was too dumb at the time to know those were bullets. Had he known then, he wouldn't have been laughing so hard about spinning around. Miss ya, Grandad.
