COMBAT STORIES FROM World War II

Harry McMahon | 1st Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division - Marines

4:39   |   It was the best thing ever. Harry McMahon was in the 2nd Marine Division but some of the men returning on the ship were from the 5th Division, the heroes of Iwo Jima. That meant the press reports in San Diego were that the Iwo Marines were returning home. That meant that every female in southern California was waiting to meet him.
