Sanny Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Some of you might recall my M's story, how she was in a "civilian assembly center" in China under the Japanese. The camp was liberated in August 1945 by 7 American Heroes. M was a child. One hero, Tad Nagaki, is still alive, and celebrated his 90th birthday this past month. M was there. He was the Japanese-American translator for the liberation. He still farms in Alliance, Nebraska. (Let me boast on M a little... she's 77!)
Conodo12 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I always enjoy hearing about folks that honor our Vets. Thanks for recognizing this man for both his birthday and his contributions Sanny! Mom looks great too!
primeats Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I still say that story should become a movie!
Duk Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I'm with Dave--I remember when Sanny posted it and it was very hard to keep a dry eye
