Thank you Veterans !!!! Your courage and defense of this nation has kept us free. God bless each of you.
I had said several months ago that I would tell the short story of a WWII POW I knew that went thru a german prison camp . He parachuted out of his plane with a few other men after being shot down. They were shortly captured. As one of the german soldiers marched them to the camp. He (the german) asked Hunter if he would like a piece of bread. Hunter said no defiantly. That was the last time he wasn't hungry. At the prison camp he had his US jumpsuit as clothing from the cold. He also had a package of "smokes" in the pocket. Oddly , the soldiers wouldn't take the cigarettes but instead seized his jump suit to get the "smokes." that was the last time he was warm during the stay. I don't know what he had to wear after that. Once during the "stay" a mule had been shot during an air raid near the camp. Even the guards were hungry so they all had meat for a little while. Thats the story he told us and it was also on local tv before he passed away. about 10 years ago.
Thank each of you for your service ! I respect each of you.
