The US Department of the Interior had a project a few years ago where they were interviewing and recording WWI and WWII vets.

If they're sailors, I love to hear the wild shore leave stories.
 I've never met a WW2 story I didn't like. I got a chance to talk to Mularkey, from BoB, it was interesting to hear what points they changed from the actual story to the show. If you want to hear the GOOD stories, get some whiskey in them, then enjoy.

I wish I had more time to talk to Mularkey, he seemed like a great guy, very friendly. Our youngest pt boat vet has some pretty funny stories, especially his first shore leave in the Philipines.
