Subject: RE: BS: 80th anniverary of the Battle of Britain
The vast majority of the German military cooperated with and did the bidding of the most inhumane, corrupt and murderous regime in modern history, so though there may have been bravery and incidences of humanity within their ranks that's not something I feel compelled to celebrate. I reserve my admiration and appreciation for the the boys and men and women who put their lives on the line and may very well have saved Europe and the rest of the world from Nazism. I'll add that I'm no nationalistic flagwaver but more of a universalistic peacenik.
