I love the old stories. I had a book my Grandma gave me at about 10 years old. A Pictoral History of WWII. I studied it hours on end but lost it over the years. Great book.

Thanks for post Jong. My uncle(RIP) was in the 38th ID, the "Avengers of Bataan" and was wounded in the battle of Zig-Zag Pass. He stayed Army and later fought in Korea and Vietnam.

Near the end is an interesting photo of an M4 Sherman carrying the remains of what looks like a Japanese light tank (possibly a Ha Go ?) above the Sherman's engine. I wonder who put that thing up there?
