Per my father, "....Dad never wanted to talk about his Iwo Jima experiences. As a boy growing up, dad hunted and killed things to help feed his family. After the war he never picked another gun except to shoot tin cans. He told us he'd seen enough killing. The comments in his letter explains what he saw that changed him...."
