My DMom's first husband (my siblings' dad) and her most beloved brother served together in the same regiment deployed to Italy in WWII. My DH's Dad was enlisted his whole childhood but it was always peace-time and he always served on bases here in Canada; never deployed overseas or saw combat of any kind.
My dad served during WWII in the Air Force. He was stationed on Tinian Island, which is where the planes took off from when they dropped the atomic bombs on Japan.
