A Forgotten Chapter: Holland Under the Third Reich

[Norm Cromie (RIP)]

Hanno, Snowtractor and Carman:
Please do not think I am immune to feelings regarding the disgusting behavior of all mankind to one another. As I can attest to during the war, seeing the terror and frightful faces of Italian families caught in the cross fire and young German teenage soldiers who raised their hands in surrender expecting to be shot for the dreadful behavior of their officers having killed two of our scout platoon without military reason, will remain with me as to why. When we look at our behavior in past history, we have not changed a particle of this atrocious behavior against our fellow men. We still live in a world that is beyond our understanding and comprehension and reinforces my belief that there are dimensions beyond our present day reasoning power of which we have no control. May I say that the mind provoking thoughts that the MLU members confront us with is maybe a small step that places us all on this planet in one simple family and that men like Geoff. who put so much effort into this sight must surely give some of us hope.
