Hard to believe it has been 75 years.
Growing up, among family or on television, one often heard names like Remagen, Colmar, the Reichswald ... and a bunch of others that weren't commonly
mentioned, like Heilbronn and Hammelburg. And then the discussions would inevitably mention other names -- those of the concentration camps. The war
cast quite a shadow over the world for many years.
I used to occasionally visit the war cemeteries in Europe. Very humbling experiences.
