When I gave tours in the museum we had Harold Pie Kellers family come down during our Iwo Jima memorial. We also the the worlds most expert on Iwo Jima give a speech. He is currently writing a book and it’s going to be a must read.

Soldiers in the heat of battle never lost their sense of humor. During the Japanese attack on my cousins ship, which sunk it, I was able to get a copy of the radio logs from their operator,
“We are under attack from 16 Japanese planes.
“The enemy is jamming our signal.
“Mamma always told me I’d have days like this.”

In the Battle of Midway, we sent 27 ships. Two years later in the Battle of Phil Sea, due to the American industrial might we sent 129 ships. And unlike the Japanese, the same month, we sent an Armada to France that had even more craft. It was incredible how the United States was able to manufacture all those ships in a short amount of time. The navy at Midway was not the same navy at Phil Sea. Not even close.
Original images and soundtrack of the landing on **Omaha Beach**, on **June 6, 1944**.
Boundless homage and admiration for those young soldiers who came to liberate our country.
It is widely known that Hitler executed 6 million Jews in the Holocaust.
According to AI the broader impact of the Holocaust included the following statistics on non-Jewish victims:
- Approximately 5 million non-Jewish victims were killed.
- This includes around 1.5 million Romani people (Gypsies).
- An estimated 250,000 disabled individuals were murdered under the T4 program.
- About 3 million Polish Christians were also victims.
- Thousands of homosexuals, political dissidents, and Jehovah's Witnesses were persecuted and killed.
- The total death toll from the Holocaust is estimated to be around 11 million people.
At that level it’s all about politics. Same reason Chesty Puller was awarded 5 Navy crosses and not at least two medals of honor. Back then the president and or VP didn’t like a general, they would not let them advance
