Hello Sarge:

 

Nice to hear from you. While all this may not be very pleasant, we all need to be reminded from time to time of the atrocities that occured during the war. Yes, I AM glad you added,

 

I know of NO Documented actions such as these by the Allies. Isolated

instances could and did happen I agree.

 

because sure enough someone is going to jump in and say, hey wait a minute I know of... Those people are always out there. I always try to point out to those people that we are not here to make things equal. We don't have to go point for point about everything in life. That's like a little kid crying, "Well Johnnie did it too!" :pdt33:

 

And no, the Americans, the British and the rest of our allies did not make it a case in point to do such things. No orders ever came down from HQ that said, "Round up those women and children and off 'em"! If someone wants to point out an isolated incident, don't waste our time. Right Sarge, right Dogdaddy?

 

I am sure that you and many other WWII vets, are carrying horrible memories, and for that I am so sorry. I have had small things happen to me, and it's hard enough when they come flashing back, but I cannot imagine going through months and/or years of war, and have those memories surfacing. :(
