Interesting enough. It's hard to imagine living during wartime and how the war touched so many lives.

This book and ‘Shadow Divers' made very interesting comparisons between the German and American soldiers as people and the ‘honor' of fighting for one's country. I'm not sure I'm ready to think there was much honor in what Nazi soldiers did, whether they knew about the atrocities being committed or not. Either way, they were the aggressors and I don't know how they justified the actions of their country.
