Letters of Note

Here is a link to an entry in my current favorite blog:

Kurt Vonnegut's letter to his family while in a repatriation camp - 1945

Its horrible. Its exquisitely expressed. It should be required reading post Slaughterhouse Five.

As my friend Alina said - "It's all (Vonnegut) minus the sarcasm".

I was just thinking the other day about how many WWII I've known who have died recently. I guess they will all be gone before long.Good they leave some written history, but sad to see how little some things have changed in the "game" of war.
