My Dad was a medic that went ashore in the first wave at D-Day and was in every major campaign in Western Europe in 1944-45, wounded twice and receiving the Bronze Star during the Heurtgen Forest campaign, winding up with Patton’s army in Czechoslovakia by VE Day. He never talked about any of this until my son started asking him questions while doing research for a paper he was writing about WWII in high school.
My father was Army Corp of Engineers, when the Bulge hit they pulled anyone they had to plug the hole, including him. He had his backpack ripped off his back by a unexploded German artillery round. Thank God that was the worse that happened to him. He ended up being occupation troops in both Germany and then Japan.

Horrible, pero lo bueno es que él sobrevivió (horrific, but the good part is that he survived).

That doctor looks an awful lot like Walt Disney.

When Walt Disney was a doctor in WWII?

I’m sorry if this seems weird, but the doctor in this strip reminds me of Walt Disney. I’m sure it’s just a random coincidence.

No, yet people do. Alot have the “us and them”-syndrome (no matter what side you are on).
