| - The other day, me and my brother were helping clear my grandpas’ old house, as it was being put on the market. In the attic, we found a whole host of things that he had brought back from the war in a box. He was a translator (they came in handy, as they could talk to POW’s and speak with civilians) in the Airborne, and his unit got separated behind the Siegfried line. He had never mentioned the box really, or shown us.

He had never mentioned the box really, or shown us. I don’t blame him in all honesty, mainly because of his diary that we found in there. It wasn’t very long, but it was disheartening to read. We reckon he made it to try and keep his nerves. Anyway, these are the only pages, and it was moving to read.
