Corporal Marine Corps - Allen, Robert E | Georgia in WWII 

Surprised at the lack of views!! One of the more interesting marine WW2 stories I've listened too.

Thank you! For your service. For your honest straight forward story. For going before us and setting the standard. For keeping the faith and making the world a better place all your life. SemperFi!

This is one of the best Marine Veteran Video’s I ve ever watched. This man is awesome.

Phenomenal memory! Amazing these brave Marines could remember names and details!

Great man. God Bless.

Mr.Allen was a very gentle, well spoken man for sure.

I believe that a book I just finished was created by this gentleman and published around 2015.. It should be recognized here, as it is a treasure for military history buffs, especially former Marines particularly. The book is entitled "The First Battalion of the 28th Marines on Iwo Jima" and is a very detailed, very valuable record of day-to-day suffering of humans on the terrible stage of Iwo Jima. Nothing else I have found is entirely like this book. So I will add my additional "thank you" to this man for his physical and mental strengths.

My daddy was a Marine. Joined in 1946 when he graduated high school. Named after his uncle Thomas, his mother's brother that served with the Marines in World war 1. He served in Korea and met my mother when he came back home. He retired as a Master Sargent in 1971. I was 15 years old. He was a true Marine!

You can’t make stories like this up… After his 2nd trip back from the ammo dump, His machine gunner found a giant piece of mortar shrapnel in the middle of the ammo box, which was full of bullets, that he was just carrying, that came from the mortar he had just nearly been blown up by… Like, what!!!!??? The unimaginable amount of men trying to kill each other with an unimaginable amount of machines & exploding metal in that war, all at once, created the most insane & unreal sounding true stories of the best & worst possible luck anyone could ever have. Probably in the shortest time span throughout human history…

It's true ... Once a Marine, always a Marine!

More then one marine should have to live with.

I just bought his book, do we know if he is still alive?

I more so respect The Black Foundational Descendants of american holocaust SLAVERY that had fight 2 wars! Black's fought america, Germans, Italians, and Japanese! It was sad to hear this guy say that the jar heads fought their fellow american!

I wish that you hadn't edited the truth... the true definition of his hatred of Black soldiers!
