Veterans Day 2021
 

May we never forget all those who served so we could have. Thanks Dad.
L.W. Kuhn Jr. U.S. Navy 1942-45.

Did he serve in the Pacific theater ?

:flag::flag::flag: To all of those who served :flag::flag::flag:


My dad, Alfred Blythe served in the Navy both in WWII and in the Korean Conflict. Then, he continued to serve his country throughout his life, although he could never talk about his actual role(s).

Pacific theater
 

Yes Dad was in the Pacific Theater.

I had an uncle that was a Seabee, building landing strips ahead of the planes and troops on the islands leading to Japan. Japs kept bombing them and the Seabees kept repairing them until they were secure and they moved ahead again.

What ship was your Dad on ? They all seemed to see plenty of action over there.

Veterans...
 

My Dad was a Seabee too...spent a lot of time in south Pacific.

That was a long time ago...

Amen, Great Day to rememeber all Vet's

Thank you

Oh, And GO NAVY!

Dads carrier
 

I ashamed to say but I don’t know the name of the aircraft carrier he was on. He said he loaded bombs on planes down in the second deck. He was there when the kamikaze pilots were hitting the ships.
Long story about Dads PTS he suffered the rest of his life. RIP Daddy!
