I had a German uncle. A Jew who saw the writing on the wall, got here in the early'30s. His sweetheart was unable to get a visa. My uncle went back to Germany wearing a US Army uniform. After the liberation, he found his sweetheart. Miraculously she survived as a laborer in several concentration camps.

Either way I hope you plan to support the president.

My uncle was a fabulous story teller and could mimic any language.

In Japanenglish he shared the story of a Japanese admiral who instructed the pilots of his ships airwing:

"Locate the enemy fleet! Identify the biggest aircraft carrier!. Attain full dive speed. Crash into bridge and flight deck of carrier!! Are there any questions?"

A lone pilot stood up... "Yes Admiral-san...are you out of your fucking mind?"
