Joe:

 

Actually my dad's battalion, the 2833rd, was supposed to go to the Pacific. It was all planned out. I'm sure as hell glad they didn't have to go, because we might not be speaking to each other right now. Thank God that bomb dropped! :pdt34:

 

I agree, I'm sure many of these "outbreaks" were just childish tantrums. Young guys with raging hormones, having too much to drink. Just an interesting observation how I saw more of this as I read on in '45.
