Did your WW II vet dad ever talk about his experiences ?

Advertisements [?]

I've always wondered about this. My dad said very little about his experiences, and he was in the Artillery behind the lines. He rose to the rank of Captain and actually was the military mayor of a town in Germany for a while. At any rate, compared to some older guys on documentaries, my dad is practically mute. Trust me, I've tried to get him to talk about it. Is this common ?
