Hey ! I though cross posting was against forum rules !!!

Just kidding... that is awsome !

I have a document written by my uncle which is basically a journal he kept while in action in WW2. I have no where to host it but if someone wants to step up Ill send them the files (scanned into .pdf format) its complete with hand drawn maps etc.

Oh he was in the army so uh... not sub stuff.

I thought this particular Ubi post was worthy of a mention as the pics are so good. Nice that you have your Uncle's journal.

Certainly worthy of a cross post. Great he was able to add some more to his puzzle of family history!

great post, however this caught my eye. The man in the middle appears to be african-american, although he could be latino. Based on my readings, african-americans only served aboard ww2 subs as stewards/cooks, but is that a chief's cap that he is wearing?
