    No one ever said they weren't the finest of people. Considering that the US had millions of first and second generation Germans living here, it was a great fit. The best thing we could do today is to close the southern border and allow millions of Europeans to emigrate as we did in the 19th century.

    John McCain was the pilot. He disreguarded safety and did a wet start causing the rocket to fire killing his fellow sailors when they were putting it out. Because of this event, every sailor is trained in firefighting on ship.

    At Ft Custer National Cemetery in Battle Creek, MI there are graves of 26 German POW's who died there during the war. 16 of those graves belong to POW's who were killed after the truck they were in was hit by a train while bringing them back from working on area farms. It was reported that all 26 of these men were model prisoners, happy to be out of the war. Many of the others immigrated to the US after the war.

    I was stationed in teh Berlin Brigade 1980-1983. My girlfriend's father was sent to the Russian Front where he bacame a POW and survived. She said her father told her that before being a POW theyq ll drank a lot of good wine and good meals. Out of approx. 90,000 POWs only 6,000 survived and came home to Germany. Sometimes we would catch a cab and tehy told us they were teenagers or younger during the war. Once some workers found a bazooka but I didn't find it interesting. I got used to see the wall and run beside it occacionally and stare at the guards. Once in a helicopter we flew right above the walll and oculd see the East German guard's straight in their eyes as the walk with the german shepperd. Russians would drive by the base and stop and walk staring at american cars. It was legal for them to go to West Berlin as for us to go to East Berlin. I pull guard on Hitler's Deputy Rudolph Hess at Spandau Prison for one week. Th eprison was guard by russians, french, british and us americans one month each and then change of the guards. One prisioner in the whole prison.

    Morphine & Codeine are the two primary opiates extracted from Opium. Codeine is actually metabolized by our bodies into morphine metabolites before passing into the bloodstream. Known as a “pro-drug” it has no effect when injected directly. It’s a marvel of nature how this plant produces this bitter substance that protects its seeds from birds, & insects, while also causing mammals to become addicted (ensuring its survival). It’s thought that the majority of soldiers during the Civil War became dependent on opioids, taken as an anti-diarrheal, & pain killer.

    I visited the prison recently. It’s now a museum. It was originally built by the French to house Vietnamese nationalists and then by the Viet Cong to house US servicemen. What was amazing was how the museum portrayed life for the nationalists as being truly awful but then when it came to housing US POWs it was supposedly like a holiday camp. The winners get to write history. In truth it was hell in earth for everyone there.
