I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
A year back I met a Latvian. Told her Riga was one of our targets. She didn't understand why we would attack Riga and had no knowledge of the cold war, an event years before her birth.
Would those aged 35 been as aware of WW1 in 1943 had WW2 not occurred?

There will be some on here who served in Germany at the end of the eighties with memories similar to mine..... my 8 month pregnant wife having to search for bombs under her car before driving. There is a politician who will NEVER get my vote.

Or do you throw your vote away on UKIP, before marching off to Dover to shout across The Channel?
I worked for a short period for a large US company in the UK when it was Veterans Day. They wanted photos of all ex service men and women and presented them at a team meeting where everyone celebrated their service to their respective countries. It's the only place I have worked as a civvy where people came up and asked me what I did when I was in.
And on a similar note to Riga, my wife told me a few years ago that I was never in a war (we were talking about soldiers mind). I said what about the Cold War?
What was that? She replied.
It's not just the youngster that are unaware.
