The War: Dedicated to Col. Marciano Calderon & Dorotea Calderon

Published: July 1, 2020, 7 a.m.

b'I\\u2019d always known that my great grandfather, Marciano Calderon (Mars for short) died in World War 2, but I didn\\u2019t know much else. Then, when I was texting my mom about my podcast, she asked if she ever told me the story of how they found Lolo Mars\\u2019 body. She hadn\'t, and so my mom reached out to her aunt (my Lola Terrie) to make sure she had all the details right. Then, she emailed me my great grandmother\\u2019s memoir page by page, so I could also get her perspective of the story. And so, with my grandmother and Lola Terrie\\u2019s permission, I\\u2019d like to tell you a story of the brutality of war, and of my great grandfather\\u2019s last moments, as told by my great grandmother, with some edits for clarity.
