    2012, The new challenge

     
    My father, his father my grandfathers fought with the underground in Europe. My grandfather was shot in the back on his bicycle by teenage Nazi SS troops near the end of the war WWII. bringing vegetables home from the garden. My father brought us to America, so this would never happen again. I can never forget how my grandfather always had to sit straight up, from the bullet wound. My dad lectured me on the evil of some in the world. They are all gone now, so I must think for myself. But as I have learned .. 'History tends to repeat itself' .. We must all learn to think for ourselves. We must then see that it never happens again.
