“I am imprinted with the whole sense of European history, especially German history, going back to World War I, which really destroyed all the old values and culture. My grandparents had been reasonably well-off but they became quite poor, living in an attic apartment.” WorldWellsWarWholeValuesCulturePoorDestroyedWar Of The WorldsWorld War IApartmentGrandparentAtticsEuropean HistoryGerman HistoryOld Values Author:Lisel Mueller
“I'm a Veteran. I was in the Navy, in the submarine corps. I come from a military family. Both of my grandparents were in World War II and retired as officers. One fought in the Pacific and one fought in Europe. The whole family was in the war. I grew up exposed to it and hearing the stories, but the stories I heard weren't kind of the whole "Rah, rah, rah! We saved the world!" They were about the personal price and the emotional price.” WorldKindWarWholeStoriesHeardMilitaryEmotionalGrewGrew UpEuropeHearingSavedWar Of The WorldsOfficersExposedWorld War IiWorld War IGrandparentVeteranNavyRetiredPacificMarine CorpsWhole FamilySubmarinesMilitary Family Author:David Ayer
