“I'm a Veteran. I was in the Navy, in the submarine corps. I come from a military family. Both of my grandparents were in World War II and retired as officers. One fought in the Pacific and one fought in Europe. The whole family was in the war. I grew up exposed to it and hearing the stories, but the stories I heard weren't kind of the whole "Rah, rah, rah! We saved the world!" They were about the personal price and the emotional price.” WorldKindWarWholeStoriesHeardMilitaryEmotionalGrewGrew UpEuropeHearingSavedWar Of The WorldsOfficersExposedWorld War IiWorld War IGrandparentVeteranNavyRetiredPacificMarine CorpsWhole FamilySubmarinesMilitary Family Author:David Ayer
