People focus a lot on the European theater, but the Pacific was no less important. Those are quite the photos. As for members of 'your people' dying from Axis tyrrany, well, the Japs slaughtered 10,000,000 of my Chinese 'brothers,' I lost over 400,000 Italian 'brothers,' 500,000 French, 400,000 British, and 7,000,000 Germans. Add those to the 400,000 Americans that died, well, whatever. It doesn't matter what nationality they are, all that matters is that they're human.
"Powerfull images. And @ Andriy, it's a shame you only care for people
serving in the Eastern European front. In the end, no matter the race or
place of origin somebody is from, it's still a human death and should be
treated equally."
Disguting what humanity loves to do to itself. But it's human nature.
"Oh and didn't you guys go to highschool?! Only 6,000,000 people died in
WW2. They were all Jewish, and they freed themselves from the
concentration camps. You know nothing." - HEY!!!! HOMOSEXUALS died in the camps also. They worked together with the Jews to end the war. Jeez, go back to middle school, noob.
