Fascinating. My dad was hit by an 18 wheeler that ran a red light, tearing the front clean off his vw transporter (1950's ish model). He never wore a seatbelt whenever we drove, and maintained that he and I would not be here now if he wore his seatbelt that day as he was thrown into the back of the van, not kept in place in the wreckage. I have no doubt seatbelts save more lives than not, however in the back of my mind there is always the thought of that freak accident where it would be a hindrance.

What was your view of the Japanese during and in the first years after the war?

Have your views changed over the years and what are they now?

Also, my (aussie navy) grandfather said they kind of envied the Americans during the war because they would show up in the cities and all the girls would flock to them thanks to their flash uniforms etc. Did you have a similar experience?

Thanks for this AMA.

Anyone know where I can buy an F15? I'm pretty safety conscious.
