I'm having a Band of Brothers marathon, then going to watch Saving Private Ryan.

Have to remind myself of the brutality of war.

My grandpa's dad served for the Allies and my Opa (my dad's father) was part of the Hitler Youth. Luckily my Opa was able to flee Germany and came to Canada. Sadly I never was able to talk to him about any of this as he died 10 years ago now but from what I have been told he didn't talk about it much anyway as he hated that time/Hitler/Nazi's, so RIP.
