Navy Veteran Charles Samas saw combat on both sides of the globe. In the campaign to free Africa and Southern Europe from Nazi occupation, Charles endured German submarine and air attacks - ultimately culminating in the sinking of his ship. But he wasn’t finished. After returning home for a short time, Charles was then sent to the Pacific theater where he encountered the Japanese Armed Forces through brutal island invasions and kamikaze attacks.
