[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 442136, member: 3306"] My dad was in WWII. He built gliders, something that is a little known chapter of the war effort in Europe. I am 43, so I came along late in his life. I have heard the stories all my life, and now I am passing those along to my sons, lest they should forget what a wonderful and awful time it was. We were watching last night and he wanted to know why you could not go get a new car when you needed one. It turned into a history lesson about rationing, something that he nor I can imagine. I would like to think that this country could come together today in a similar way, but it would be hard to do anymore. We all seem so self-centered. [/QUOTE]
