Always good to be reminded that almost a third of the US Army was deployed to the Pacific. It wasn't all John Wayne and the Marines :) |

Just wish a third of the marines had been deployed to Europe… |

ScottWashbrun: Shame on you. You know that the Marines have won all American wars single-handedly -- even if they were barely there. It is heresy to say the Army was in the Pacific and did anything useful. I wouldn't be surprised if Google, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram aren't getting ready to ban that site has hate speech. :) Buck |

A third of the Marines would have been two divisions. I'm sure they would have conducted themselves as gallantly as they did in the Pacific. Although fighting the Germans would have been a whole new experience for them. |
