And yet another perspective....

My grandfather was killed in action over the Pacific flying a B-17. Our family has never forgiven or forgotten. My dad never knew his father (Grandmother was pregnant when Grandfather was killed) and I was robbed of a grandfather. I don't hold any hate towards any individual Japanese but I don't trust them culturally to this day and the same goes for the Chinese. Interestingly most South Koreans I know feel exactly the same. That area of the world is going to be responsible for the world burning again one day.
