Scott,
The history channel had man all day marathon yesterday about the marines and as lot of the combat photography was included. After what they went through on the beaches and those islands, I am surprised that anyone who survived could ever get back to a normal life. To me those and all the others like them will always be real heroes and we owe them more than we can ever repay. I believe that Churchill's remarks about the RAF could also be applied to them. He said, "Never have so many owed so much to so few." Very true and appropriate.
