Well, maybe it is time to stop for the moment all nightmares of WWII.

I found very important influence of WWII upon my life however. This influence takes place thanks to ex-UNRRA*. Imagine that this influence takes place since 1945 and it is an important factor for all generations of my family including me. I writing about the greatest military invention ever. I am writing about the genius machine worth the Nobel Award. I am writing about it and it and it and it. Ladies and Gentlemen, yes I am writing about the most famous US war machine called P-38 Can Opener. I do have two pcs. of this genius device at my home. They come from my grandfather's home and they were delivered to Poland in 1945 by the UNRRA from the US Army stocks. Both my 60+ old P-38s are fully serviceable and they have never been sharpened. When I get irritated against all sophisticated hand- or electrically-powered modern can openers that are unable to open simple can -- what am I doing then? Yes, I take P-38 and then open every type of can without the smallest problem.

BTW, my grandfather had greater number of the US WWII militaria and today they are small part of my WWII militaria collection. For example the UNRRA-delivered US Army WWII sleeping bag today remains inside my US WWII M1928 Haversack you can see below.
