(27:21) Gib was sent to the northern part of Okinawa. The men met opposition and took casualties. (28:25) The Japanese shelled the Marines quite heavily. (30:11) He did see some natives and civilians but not too many. This was due to his close proximity to the shore. (31:10) After 10 days near the shore the men walked inland. (31:45) Inland, Japanese soldiers would pop out and take shots at the Marines. (32:20) Due to his position and rank, Gib was not as much on the front lines as others. (33:48) While fighting on Okinawa, a man jumped on top of Gib to protect him from a bomb. The man died but was honored as a hero. (35:00) Gib was given tasks ranging from taking care of equipment, aiding casualties, shooting mortars and sniping. (35:50) �      Gib’s battalion took a lot of casualties.

(39:34) Gib’s battalion was pulled back and replenished. Then they were sent to Okinawa’s capital to attack the airport. (40:00) Near the end of the fighting on Okinawa, Gib did not see very many POWs. (41:37) Gib was very happy to leave Okinawa. In 1969 he revisited the island.

(48:37) Gib was unsure as to why is battalion was in China. They spent most their time there on liberty. (49:05) While in China the men stayed in old dorms and hospitals. (50:30) Gib was in charge of making sure deliveries were sent on time. (50:55) The Chinese treated the Americans well. Much of the Chinese could speak English. (51:28) When Gib left, much of his unit was left behind because they did not have enough points. (52:49) The men that Gib worked with were very reliable, due primarily to their military discipline. (54:00) April 1st 1946 was the day that Gib arrived home. (54:20) He was discharged in San Diego, California. (54:58) After graduating from college, he worked several small jobs. (55:20) Gib started a laundromat. (56:55) Thoughts on Service (57:36)   Gib was no longer lazy due to his service in the military. (57:45) Gun shots still trigger reflexes for Gib.
