VJ Day 2024
The 79th anniversary of the end of World War 2 triggers the recollection of what my late father’s family had to go through.

VJ-Day 2024
There were certainly a lot of people on the move worldwhile as boundaries were redrawn, armies demobilized and all manner of humanity were just trying to return home. Thinking back, it was quite a resilient generation as I cannot think of too many 14 year-olds these days who could or would these days set out on their own. I like to think that the fruit from all that termoil, destruction and death is at least now a united Europe and hopefully someday, all huminity will learn something from the past.

Well said, Ed!
My Father, having lived through WW2 as a young boy, never felt remorse towards his oppressor, but always emphasized the importance of international peace and stability.
