Wow, my dad was preparing for the invasion of Japan. He never had to go overseas, fortunately.

About 15 years ago I had the pleasure of meeting a "plank member," of the USS Missouri who witnessed the signing of the surrender documents firsthand. He still carried his "surrender card," (his term) in his wallet and said outside of pics of his family...it was the most important document in his wallet.
