- Introduction:
"I went where they sent me, and I did what everybody else was doing when I got there."
– Merrill Steeb
Where did they send him? To battles in WWII's Pacific - Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Saipan. What were they doing when he got there? Fighting to end tyranny and secure freedom...for us, and for the world. Meet Merrill, and you'll be introduced to yet another member of the Greatest Generation who doesn't know what all the fuss it about. Precisely. We fuss because we love that generation - men and women thrust into a worldwide conflict for nothing short of freedom's fate. We fuss because they did what had to be done. We fuss because they didn't, and still don't, trumpet their own accomplishments. We fuss because they won...and because we still enjoy that victory today.
This is: "Steeb, a service story".
