        Not as such, but her parents were also partisans, against the Nazis, along with most of her village. The village was rounded up, and what happened to them is unknown, but there were no one left who my mother knew when the Americans liberated the camp.

        Interesting note there -- my mother said that the first American she met sounded like someone trying to talk with a mouth full of bubble gum, but he didn't have any gum!

          Condolences for your loss.
          The reason that the American Army does so well in wartime, is that war is chaos, and the American Army practices chaos on a daily basis.

            Paul,

            I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I hope that we can provide some level of support to you in this trying time for you.
            I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
