Yes, it is, which is the reason I brought this up here. I'm sorry if you don't like that, but was hoping some people here would understand why I brought this up. My mother escaped the Nazis while my father did his best to help RAF pilots shoot down Luftwaffe pilots, which included him flying as the radar/RDF operator on mosquito night fighters. I'm simply trying to get a little more perspective on my family's history in a forum I know, feel comfortable posting on and within which I've made a few friends who share a common history whether it WWII or later conflicts. I apologize if you don't approve of it. And again, thank you everyone else for your responses, they have been very helpful.
