Wolfgang:

Many thanks for this thoughtful and important article. I hope you will feel free to add to it. It casts light on an area I have always wondered about. I grew up in a similar vacuum on the other side, in New York. While history always paints the so-called victors as so-called angels, it was quite mysterious to me why I so rarely heard anyone discuss the war and events they were part of in it. I think they, also, were horrible stories not daring to be let out, regardless of side.

Warmest regards,


A
