RE: Odds and Ends — 21 January 2025

I’ve been meaning to watch that movie. My dad lived through the Nazi occupation of Norway. His parents were peripherally involved in helping Jews get over the border into Sweden. Unfortunately, like many of his generation, he didn’t talk much about the war years.

Sort:  

I was born in '47, so I grew up in the shadow of WWII. I used to have nightmares about airplanes strafing me in my bed, and Nazis storming my door. Too bad your father didn't share more. But, my husband was in Vietnam and it's only in recent years that he's opening up about it.

Precious stories, from your father and my husband.
