To the editor:

Most Americans today were not around during the late 30s or early 40s to know the hate Americans had for the group in Europe known as “Nazis”. The rally call for the Nazi party was “Make Germany Great Again”.  Sound familiar? This concept was received with great enthusiasm by the general German  population.

I was a young boy at that time and really didn’t comprehend the meaning of that concept but it sounded great.  How did that work out?, ask the surviving residents of the rubbles of Berlin and the rest of the large cities in Germany or ask the survivors of Auschitz or any of the other thousand  concentration camps that sprung up under Nazi Regime.

One night we were all sitting in our living room and the suspense was tense.  We were listening to our radio, TVs were not around then, and our President was telling us about the Japanese attack on Pearl harbor.  It seems Japan had decided to join Germany and then Italy to take over the world.  All I remember is the next morning, all the men were gone.

When our brave young men were making the ultimate sacrifice at Normandy, my dad was on a battleship in the south pacific trying to deter the Imperial Japanese Navy.  My mom, in the meantime, was doing her part at an aircraft company as a “Rosie the Riveter”  We had ration books, war bonds, air raid sirens and blackout curtains. These were the some of the men and women that truly represent the defenders of our constitution.

Our biggest worry at that time was attacks on the East and West Coasts. Our biggest problem now is a “Yes Man” Supreme Court plunging us into a dictatorship and politician’s porn dialogue to describe their opponents instead of focusing on positive campaigns.
