World War II Navy Seabee: A Profile.
second edition
This book celebrates the 90th birthday of a World War II Navy Pacific Seabee. "I pulled my own weight," says thus underage WWII Navy Seabee of the 32nd Sp NCB. He served with troops much older, average age 37, in the Philippine Campaign and the China Defensive. A Can Do Seabee helped the road to Victory in the Pacific War.
"I didn't know beans of my destination." He claims the mermaids in the sea help guide him through perilous seas...
After the WWII, Doubrava, unable to find work, enlisted in the Army Air Corps (AF) and served in the Cold War on Iwo Jima island with the Japanese on different terms, and, there becoming the Knight of the Black Pearl. Still spry, witty, today, meet Chas. J Doubrava from a sharecropper's Czech family of Texas who enlisted in the Navy Seabees in 1943; he joined the 32nd Special NCB and 32nd Special NCB A operating in the Philippines and China. Much has been classified until now. Underage @ 16, he had never seen the ocean, RI, CA, not to mention war troopships, troop trains, yet as the family provider he brought in $19/mo for his mother back home in Texas.
A must-read for history buffs, veterans' stories, memoirists, and for today's generations. A very human story before and beyond the war. Doubrava resides in Colorado today.
We keep the story alive!
