Happy Birthday Jay. Just beginning the downward arc. I never expected to reach 28.
My light reading is the same as last year. I just fished it out because it's the only thing I can concentrate on
"The SS Alibi of a Nation" by G. Reitlinger.
It has this truly wonderful quote at the beginning that illuminates a mindset....
"Through Charlemagne Christianity and with it Jewry got a foothold in our regions. (Ten minutes ago another alert was sounded in Munich.) I explained this to Eike and Gertrud. Let's hope they grasped it."
Gerda Bormann to her husband, 12 September 1944.
