Monday, December 05, 2016Pacific resumed.“From then on it was a bit of everything. Out in the South Pacific I think we hit every island they had: Marianas, Guadalcanal, New Caledonia, and others. I didn’t know there were so many islands out there,” Malan said.America and its allies won World War II. Japan surrendered in August of 1945 and the USS Preble was decommissioned later that year, four years to the day of the Pearl Harbor attack.Malan completed his six years in the Navy and returned home — spending just enough time in his native Illinois to retrieve his seabag before moving to Fairborn. He had a long career with the U.S. Postal Service in Dayton and a 53-year marriage with wife Geneva, who died in 2010 and who he “misses every day.”As Geneva’s health faltered and she had to go to a nursing facility for care prior to her death, Malan moved into an apartment on North Third Street next door to Joslin, 66, who also is a Navy veteran, former machinist mate (serving stateside during the Vietnam era) and a retired Dayton postal worker. The two swapped war stories — including their many years sliding down icy steps and encountering unfriendly dogs and cats while working for the Post Office — over fishing trips, at the shooting range, and while going out to dinner.“He’s not a pretentious type. He’s just a nice, genuine man,” Joslin said of his friend and neighbor. “He lived through a harrowing time. It’s just an honor to be around him.”...
