What did your relatives do during WW2?

We spend a lot of time discussing the men of Easy Company, and a lot of other veterans of WW2, so I’m just curious about what some of you guys relatives did during the war, so we can appreciate their service. I’ll start

-My first maternal grandfather was a Staff Sergeant in the USAAF, B-25 Flight Engineer in the China Burma India Theatre

-My other maternal grandfather was a Technician Third Grade (Corporal) in the Army, medic on a U.S. Army Hospital Ship, and served in the Mediterranean and the Pacific

-My Paternal Great Uncle was a Pvt and Machine Gunner in the USMC, and was KIA in July 1944 during the Battle of Tinian, he was only 18 years old

Edit: It’s amazing hearing about what all our ancestors did in the war! Truly shows they were the greatest generation
