HappyGamer071705,
My Grandad too, he never spoke of his time stationed there. The only thing we know is that he was a medic, and he enjoyed the food.
I often think, that he didn't want us to know the full extent of what he witnessed. ☹️
Lady V
My uncle was a POW war there, at the age of 93 he'd still get nightmares over what happened to him during that time. He was traumatized for life.

My grandad was part of the remy and was stationed in Burma during ww2, he never talked about it much but once he let slip about standing on a hill and bullets just whizzing through the air! It was a terrifying sound he said, that might not have happened in burma but it's all I remember him saying about the war.
