Hi,
Congratulations, very good idea for an interesting thread. I will write nothing about WWII from my own experience because I am 43 but I would be ready to write the books how much WWII still impresses a stamp on our life. I am observing for instance how much the nightmares of WWII still are alive in my parents' minds. Due to my profession I am working with WWII historians and veterans. You are unable to imagine how much old war emotions are still alive in these men, how much they hate their old enemies, how much they still try to rival against their Allied colleagues.
Look also at newly-elected Pope Benedict XVI. There are the people, also tabloid media, that would prefer to remember that Josef Ratzinger served during WWII in the nazi Hitlerjugend than he is wise and good man.
Best regards
