My Dad was in the Pacific campaign, I don’t know details, wish I did. I found an Aussie military hat badge in his military stuff.
His dad was in ww1. Carazy. Both generations had to deal w/ both wars.

My Dad was also in Pacific theater. 2 landings in the Philippines and a third on Okinawa, was preparing to invade mainland Japan. They were expecting a loss of 1 million allied forces if mainland Japan was invaded.
