<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2766495, member: 19250&quot;]I do have some Nazi medals taken from prisoners&nbsp; my father in law captured while he was in Europe&nbsp; during&nbsp; WWII . Dad was in Europe&nbsp; towards&nbsp; the&nbsp; end&nbsp; of&nbsp; the war. He fought in the battle of the bulge,then went on to liberate the concentration&nbsp; camps.</p><p>To this day at 96 his eye fill up when ever this subject&nbsp; is talked about. He doesn&#039;t&nbsp; say much his looks tell it all of the horror&nbsp; he witnessed. I also had at one time two Nazi pistols . Taken also during the end days of the Nazi party. The medals will one day be donated&nbsp; to a museum in his name so no one will ever forget. As yes I concur&nbsp; they also creep&nbsp;&nbsp; me out..... and for the 2 guns they were sold to a collector ,&nbsp; and money donated.</p><p>After his service in Europe&nbsp; he was placed on a troop ship heading for Japan.....as if witnessing what he had already wasn&#039;t&nbsp; enough&nbsp; he was going to invade Japan.</p><p>Well we all know the rest of that story.</p><p>He then spent 2 years in Kobe&nbsp; Japan as occupation&nbsp; forces. </p><p>And yes he and men and women&nbsp; like him of this era are my hero&#039;s......[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
