I could listen to stories from Vets all day. Thank you for your service Mr. Miller.

From Belgium: in the name of my grandparents, parents and myself: Thank you, Mr. Miller for what you did during the second World War in Belgium. Without your dedication, courage and the sacrifice of your many brothers in arms, we wouldn't exist today. It's the plain truth. People were afraid in december '44 when the nazi's tried to come back, during the battle of the Bulge. You did a hell of a job. Thank you!

This was amazing to me. My dad served in the Pacific and refused to tell us anything about what he went through. After his death when he was in his 90’s and we had access to his service records we found out he had bee shot down twice and captured by the Japanese. He and several of the other captured airmen escaped back to safe lines. He was nominated for the Congressional Medal of Honor but turned the honor down because he felt it was his duty to do what he was nominated for. We were always proud of him as a dad but I gave him so much more forgiveness for our personality differences and head butting throughout my upbringing. Mom always said I was just like him. I was proud when I found out what he had the courage to do.

My grandpas were also in the Pacific. Neither would talk about it, and I need to get their Army service records. My dad told me that his dad was a bomb loader who was burned terribly twice when Japanese planes were shot down and came to rest over where he was in his defensive position. Both times were 6 month hospital stays, and both could have been his ticket home, but he refused, going back to his unit until the end of the war. I saw the thick, twisted ropey scars on his back a few times. It was horrible. I married a man who reminded me of my grandpa, and 25 years later, I know I made a great choice!

This gentleman brings back to my childhood memories in the early 2000s at the local VFW post. The stories that those men would tell would knock your socks off. And when I was too little to really understand, I remember standing there, looking them in the eyes, and nodding my head. I just felt lucky to be in their presence. I will never forget them as long as I live.

Wow, that was the fastest 26 minutes of my life! I could just listen to these old veterans for hours. As long as they wanted to talk.

When listening to WWII veterans talking about their experiences, it never ceases to amaze me how nonchalant they sound as if it wasn't a big deal. I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for every one of those combatants.

Just another Tuesday, gramps would always say when I asked him about his service in WW2. I was probably 10 when I realized the war lasted more than a day. Later, obviously, I learned these fine men did not talk about their service much and he was nicely changing the subject. Not long before he died at 94, he shared one story about a good friend dying inn his arms. I had never seen him weep before, but I instantly realized his silence was from humility and his way of not remembering the horrible events that formed the foundation of his life. A great man, as they all were.

(I have a copy of his service record.) As a young man (35 +/-) I once asked him if he had any friends killed in the war. He answered with a single soft spoken word: "Many."

The greatest generation. They had a harder life before the war, so they knew hardship. They didn't know the other part of war-- but they found out. Not speaking of it is how they pushed down the horror. My mom told me grandfather Stan used to wake up screaming sometimes. He was one of the founding officers of the original US Army Airborne Rangers Battalion-- often called Darbys Rangers. They are quite different than Rangers that are jump qualified.

Best he could describe my grandpa's feelings on the war was their heart's were shattered. Many were able to get over it. A lot had more difficulties than others. My father's way of dealing with his memories were always telling us the great times hea had with his friends. That was it.

I could listen to this gentleman talk all day. My father was in WWII and was charged with repairing and cleaning up the tanks that were damaged in combat and reading them to be redeployed. Some were filled with body parts from being struck by German tanks. Those who were in our tank corp had a rough time and I give all of them my utmost respect.

I thought my WW2 veteran Grandfather was going to live forever. He walked more at 93yo than I do daily… and I walk. Sadly he has since passed. Makes me grateful for each one of these stories you record. Brings me (OEF vet) a great sense of peace hearing these war stories. My grandfathers was lost so each one of these that have been captured is a real treasure trove.

Glad he can tell the story. We grew up around a lot of Vets in the DC area and only heard a few stories that they shared with our Dad. Understandable considering what many of them went through. But I think it's good for my generation and the ones behind us need to know these parts of history.

Very impressive. A man's reminiscing actually covered some of the most pivotal battles of the Second World War. I recall seeing pictures of tanks tearing up the concentration camp fences and to think this soldier was there, doing an important act so matter of fact. The crushing of the 1st SS Panzer Division spearhead was Pieper's kampfgruppe. The Ruhr pocket battles trapped 317,000 German troops. Thank you sir. My own parents greeted the 7th Infantry Division in the liberation of Korea at the end of the war in the Pacific.

To me what is equally impressive besides his war experiences is the fact that he can remember seeing soldiers that fought in the Civil War. Amazing.

You are the reason we must see what we are doing to the Country you were willing to give everything for . Thank you in no way is enough. You ARE a hero sir just as those who did not come back. As for the rest of us we have let this country down failing to realise there are things worth dying for just as you did so many years ago. We learn from those who were there and did that and the fact that you did this interview tells me you are still giving and I wish I had your courage and your incredable sense of Patriotism.

He never wanted to talk about his war experience. His parents, my grandparents, were very patriotic Germans, but were shot for refusing to support Nazis. My father at 15 escaped, and he was understandably bitter about the whole thing. Well, these interviews help me understand a little what it may have been like for him in the war, what he may have seen and did. They are also just incredibly interesting, with cool people. Thank you for these. I sure hope America doesn't become fascist.

This guy has had a very interesting adventurous life. Fighting in Europe in WWII, serving under MacArthur before and during Korea, joined the Air Force after the army, and went to Vietnam but never was there long enough to get the darn ribbon for serving over there. What advantageous spirit

My neighbor (101 years old), was a Sherman tank commander in Europe. He, and three other Shermans, were traveling down a narrow country road in Alsace-Lorraine. Muddy fields were on either side of the road. He said a "turretless" German vehicle was on a hillside, it knocked out the first Sherman, then the last Sherman. The crews of the other two tanks bailed out and ran for cover. He said they rarely used the .50 Browning because it was so heavy to lift onto it's mount. In the spring of 1945 (?), they were driving in a valley. There was a single haystack sitting in the middle of nowhere about 600 yards away. He fired a few bursts from the .50, the final burst went into the haystack. At least one person (presumed German soldier) ran out of the haystack. He did not go to investigate. During the winter/spring 1945, he observed the Germans using oxen to pull an artillery piece through a muddy field. The mud was up to the oxen's knees, but they just pulled it along at a steady pace.

Mr Miller, you mentioned that your tank unit joined up with the 63rd ID to cross the Siegfried Line. My Father was in the 63rd and was involved in that action you mentioned. I also recall him frequently speaking of fighting against the 1st Panzer Div and how tough they were.

Really enjoyed the interview. I did 27 years and it was an adventure that I can only appreciate now. I wish the same adventure could be found by young people today. There was both good and bad, anger and wonder.

What a sharp memory ! Greetings from Brazil Sgt. Miller. You are a true hero !

I am absolutely mesmerized by how he described his tour like it was yesterday. Though I’ve never been in combat I was battle ready for a couple of operations. My old unit destroyed 34 Iraqi tanks and only had 1 casualty. Just because a war has ended the soldiers tour doesn’t . Like this gentleman he can’t unseen the horror of war and I can attest that to my big brother who died young so many can live their lives free. He wasn’t killed in combat - he died from the visions of what he saw.this Memorial Day please pray for the souls of these soldiers “Only the dead have seen the end of war.”

I could listen to that gentleman for hours. What a blessing you have spent 20 some odd minutes hearing his story.

Mr. Miller is typical of the Greatest Generation and is an American treasure. Today's Americans, for the most part, are clueless by comparison. I clearly remember when I was about 8 or 9 years old my father took me to San Francisco to see Gen.MacArthur return from Korea. It was quite an event for a young boy to witness. Ours was a citizen military. Those young men and women of WWII who came out of the Depression were the greatest in all they accomplished.

Even at his age he's still pretty sharp. A man that has experienced so many things, including war and firefights but the only time he got emotional was talking about the camps. 80 years later and it still effects him. You know that if he can't handle it, nobody who is sane and human could.

Came Back All Shot Up And Disabled The Rest Of His Life. He Spent Weeks In McGuire VA Hospital In Richmond VA.

I rented a house from World War two veteran His name was Art Marty, one of the stories that he told me he was at Pearl Harbor across the bay from the battle wagons he was stationed on a light cruiser. He said I stood on the deck, watching the Japanese come in. He said they never came after his ship. very much. All they had was light arms, all the other arms were locked up. I asked him what was the scariest moment of all he told me it was ship to ship battle. All you could see was the flashes over the horizon. I new shells were coming in. One hit next to a bulkhead where his friend was standing when shell went off, he said his friend disappeared was scattered all over. The battle went on for two days. He said we lost a lot of men that in those two days of battle, he said all we could do was throw them overboard and keep fighting . Just like many veterans of Wars It was hard for him to talk about all of the things that happened without tears.

Great interview. One small suggestion though: Please ask more follow-up questions. It would've been interesting to know when/how they finally got proper sights and equipment for their improvised armor during the Battle of the Bulge --and also how they made do in combat without those critical pieces of gear.

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Sgt. Miller. He has been one of the most impactful people that I have ever met. The last time I saw him, he gave me some items he signed for me, and I still treasure those items to this day.

Thank you for your service Harry! I wonder if you knew my grandpa? His name was Charles Stanley Walker and he was a tank commander in the 740th Tank Battalion. I met one of his tank crewmen, Herchel "Herk" Wahl. Walker (grandpa) went on to serve in Korea and Vietnam. Sadly, he passed in 1972 after losing his battle with cancer. He was a full Colonel.
