JK2006 My Mum drove an ambulance in the Blitz; my Dad was captured by the Nazis and escaped; and I was born in December 1944, just at the tail end of the war, and thrown from my cot by the last bomb that fell on London.

May have affected me. Compensation please.
Innocent Accused 70th Anniversary of the Second World War today,03 September 1939.

Have we learnt the lessons millions died for yet? The second war came about because we didn't learn the lessons from the great war.

No doubt y'all have different views on it,but I sincerely hope we all deeply regret the hurt and suffering that befell about 20 million dead Russians,8 million dead Germans,the Holocaust and God only knows how many others.

Both grandfathers fought in the Great war,my father who is now slowly sliding into dementia fought in the second.None of these people shirked their 'duty',but by the same token they all thought the end results did not justify the price paid,and the risks taken.
My mother who spent most of the war in the home guard,and manning a first aid post almost every night grew old wondering what it was all about too.
