@ApexSeeker_ I also saw a WW2 Veteran out in town on the weekends who was missing a leg. I always put some Yen in his cup and sat and chatted with him.
@ApexSeeker_ As I have been to Japan I had nothing but respect for Japanese Military, especially WW2 Veterans.
Our soba truck driver was a kamikaze pilot but the day he was to ship out the war ended. He was always smiling We called him Smiliesan.
