I did find out some things bit by bit. I remember my father sitting me down and talking to me about antisemitism

My father went from fleeing Nazi occupied Austria, to the US Army, to a VA hospital where he stayed for the next 40 years.

In the late 1950's he explained that an associate Doctor invited him to attend a John Birch Society meeting at their home, perhaps not realizing that my father and his brothers had been active in anti-Nazi activities in the years prior to Krystallnacht.

My father also steered me away from the bigoted youth group that wore militaristic uniforms that reminded him of the Nazi Youth.

The increase in Nazi propaganda being distributed in America is a blatant reminder that bigots and racists continue to fester and plot, seeking any opportunity to spread their hatred.
