QUOTING HITLER: Contradicts bravery of WWII veterans
I really appreciated a commentator’s recent article about her repulsion at people quoting Hitler. As the daughter of a World War II veteran, I couldn’t agree more with her sentiments. What is particularly ironic is that people spouting such idiocy and hate today, were born into freedom and live in America. Further, they have enjoyed its many freedoms as a direct result of the heroism of the World War II generation.
My late father, Joel, spent over three years in the Army Air Corps during World War II. He signed up the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed. He was stationed in Italy, England and North Africa. As an adjutant of a bomb squadron, he was a man on the ground. He felt the “men in the air who went on dangerous missions” were the real heroes. Hitler’s Luftwaffe killed his best friend and numerous others in the squadron.
