"I bet you think I have forgotten you... Well, I haven't." Three brothers go off to World War II. The youngest goes to the South Pacific. The middle brother to North Africa, then Italy, then France.

They showcase my grand uncles' down-to-earth humanity, as well as their heroic journeys-all in "just a few lines."
