From a 1943 letter from my grandpa to his 6 year-old son, re WW2: "I wish I could be there with you. Hitler and the Germans want to make everyone in the world work for them and not be able to have homes and enjoy Xmas and free schools and think like you want to think so some one has to fight them so that they won’t be able to do this and I have to be in the army to help keep them from taking our house away from us and so we can go to shows, school, church and enjoy our family as we please."
