<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jeankay, post: 473575, member: 12159&quot;]Hi RichieB,</p><p>When I saw the One Peso note of the Japanese occupation I got a chill. This note could carry some significance for a soldier&#039;s surviving family. It appears that one soldier/sailor/marine was from Clarinda, Iowa. Chances are quite slim, but these soldiers might have survived the terrible occupation. </p><p><br /></p><p>Even though I was born at the end of WWII, I know about my own step-granddad, a career Marine, who was a casualty in the Bataan Death March. He received the Silver Star for his selfless valor in battle. My grandmother was presented his Silver Star and flag posthumously, and they were given to me after my dad passed away in 1985.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for sharing the notes RichieB. </p><p>jeankay[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
