Every once in a while at VA facilities, we have the honor to visit and listen to the WW veterans. Always humble and never think they were a hero, just lucky to survive. One tells how he lied about his age to enlist, was so proud he did. You need patience, when you visit, but their faces light up if you get that privilege. Family is few and far between.

Korean, vets are becoming more common place, with some interactions.

Not sure if there will be any Nam guys will survive to their 90s, but not sure if some will talk even late in life.
