@bethroots @Dianora Thank you for your kind note. My dad never talked about the war & very little about stuff that he & his family had to deal with during WWI & its aftermath, i.e. inflation, then #GreatDepression, then Hitler and then WWII. And yes - I am sure your in-laws could tell a tale - most likely of man's inhumanity to man. Reading the history of #Europe is horrifying for sure. The #FeudalSystem, #BlackDeath, #Famines, #LittleIceAge, #SpanishIquisition, and war after war after war.
