Thanks for your post James, I could listen to those types of stories all day long. I used to get some stories from my dad when he felt like talking about when he grew up as a farmers son, apprenticing to become a blacksmith when he gets drafted into the German navy. He ends up in northern Africa as a radio operator and gets captured by the Americans and sent an Illinois peanut farm as a pow. After the war he was sent back to Germany where he married my mom then emigrated to Canada were they lived until they passed on. Sorry to ramble on here but after reading your post I started thinking about some of the fascinating stories I've heard mostly from people older than my 50 years that I realise that although I think I've lived and seen alot, I ain't seen nothing yet. My hats off to your acquaintance and others like him that have given us what we have today. Have a good one.
