i understand your point I believe, but that mainly is a comparison of lives lost rather lessons learned that are applicable today, and IMO the lessons from Peral are or should be much more significant.
I would agree, but maybe that's due to being a boomer. My grandfather fought in WWI. My father and many relatives in WWII. Some in Korea which gets little acknowledgement and many friends Vietnam.
My interest has always been more towards WWII as it seemed I could relate to it more and maybe because we were attacked.
I escaped the draft as Nixon abolished it and both of my brothers had physical issues that kept them from serving.
I sometimes fantasize about the leaders sitting down and working out the differences but sometimes wonder if there isn't more to it than we are aware of
A big thank you to all that served 👏👏💛
