Well, the last acknowledged bout of it seems to be totally forgotten by today's youth. Here's hoping Prince Harry isn't representative of his generation

Hi Hanno,Thr one thing I'm pleased about is that Jimmy Shipton had a small part in feeding your people.He used to like telling us about tossing chocolate bars from the CMP to children,every time they came across them.Before going out of camp,they'd load boxes of them in the cab .He loved children.He just did his job,and went about it.But,after May'45 they were called upon to go to a concentration camp just inside Germany.I can't recall the name of it.But THIS experience haunted him to his dying days.One troubling item he mentioned was seeing lampshades made human skin,which he never forgot.So I think someone shud educate the young prince form England very quickly.
