Thanks for posting the pics!
Now War is a not a good thing but thank someone I dont know if I were to thank god but whomever. But now a days with all the new bombs that are guided to targets alot less civilians are dead.
Just to let you know I moved to the states in 89. Most of my great grandparents, uncles so on fought for the 3rd reich during ww2.
I actually have a great uncle whos still alive and he has told me stories about the war. Its crazy but things happen for a reason. I belive it was the right thing for the americans to drop the bombs. It shorten the war by years. Us americans/canadians should be happy that we were only fighting on a different part of the world not on us or canadian soil.
My fiance is a big anti-war person. I'm not a war monger but I belive there is time to put a foot in someones ass for actions they have done. Hitler was a tard and needed to be stopped. The empior needed to be stopped and saved thousands of lifes by dropping the bombs.
I am lucky enough to be bavarian so when I go back to germany I dont visit Berlin. I want nothing to do with that city. I do however want to go to the camps in poland and what not but there is too much bad history in Berlin. That has nothing to do with the 3rd reich its the wall and all the cold war issues.
I always found it funny the family that I have in Austria and the family that we have in Bavaria are so close but yet so different. Its kinda cool. But the fact is that it was needed and it saved alot of lives. Just think how bad it would of been if that nut job Hitler got ahold of a nuke.
Again I love history and I think its important for people to know history so it doesn't repeat itself.
Just be happy that none of this war took place on us/canadian soil.
