RIP

I have been thinking about this a lot lately, but in the next 5-10 years we’ll be seeing a lot of articles about this.

Japan Surrendered 78 years ago. i’d you were in the military and 17 you’d be 95 right now and that’s pretty young.

That's why all the efforts to talk to veterans and collect their stories have been so important. It is good to see that expanding to Korea and Vietnam now. While not in as high regard as the ones before for it, those stories should be preserved as well.
