My grandfather on my mother's side was a navy engineer who landed at D-Day (a few hours or so after the initial invasion; he wasn't one of the soldiers who took the beaches). He once talked about how he had to drive his bulldozer over the bodies of the dead Americans, and how he hated it but knew it had to be done.
My grandfather also has this little sticker that pretty much sums up his and my feelings about the dropping of the A-bomb. It says; "If there hadn't been a Pearl Harbor, there wouldn't have been a Hiroshima"
