5 uncles and 4 aunts in WW2. 2 Uncles died at the base of the cliffs
at Les Falaises, one uncle survived having three ships sunk under him
on three voyages on the Murmansk run. 2 Uncles went all the way from
El Alamein to Berlin.
13 of my European relatives came back with the tattooed number on
their arms, 1 cousin survived Mengele but was paralyzed forl life.
All the rest of my relatives went to the ovens,
If it wasn't for the thousands that gave their lives that year I too
would probably have gone to the ovens
In England today is called "Rememberance Day"
I remember and am very grateful to them all..
