    The Greatest Generation, including my father who served in the Pacific, fought bravely to stop the threat of the spread of authoritarian and Fascist rule. I can’t help but imagine the despair they would feel if they saw the internal war between democracy and the real threat of possible authoritarian rule going on here in the USA Today. Though I miss my dad, I am glad he and many of his peers, have passed on so they don’t have to witness this threat again after all they sacrificed for us.

It hurts my heart knowing what they fought and died for being taken down bit by bit by our changing society who has no idea or concept of SACRIFICE the Greatest Generation made for all of us. I’m grateful neither my uncle nor father are alive to witness the slow demise of freedom. 😢

      @@diannemiller1895 My dad was born in 1918. He was a fighter pilot in the China Theater during WWII. Flew with a squadron known as Terry and the Pirates. Apparently there was a comic strip later that was named after them. Dad died in 1988, just shy of his 70th birthday. Heart attack. Not unusual for fighter pilots, as I understand it. Mom was born in 1922, and, bless her heart, she lived until 2019, and passed peacefully at the age of 97. She was mentally with us until the end. I was raised the middle of 5, but both my older sister and brother died young. My bro in a motorcycle accident at 22, sis from a brain tumor at 44. I am now the oldest at 75, with 2 younger brothers, ages 72 and 68. Yes, we’ll have a big family reunion in the heavens, with dad in the cockpit, by and by. What’s happening right now is so worrisome. Looks as if several countries in Europe are moving to more authoritarian candidates. I guess all the people who could remember Europe in the 1930’s-‘40’s are passed, and the young people are ignorant of all that terrible history. 😪

    What's sad is that as time passes & society moves furthur & further away from that time, the majority of youth/young ppl lose interest & honestly could care less about the WW's., Korea & Vietnam. They don't realize the hell our soldiers & all the others' went through. The way they behave: burning flags, dancing & stomping on flags, looting etc. Only to have this behavior shrugged off & even condoned? What a disgrace. May they never be forgotten.❤

I wonder what would happen if those who "protest" and hate America so much were to be given the option of living in a Soci*list/Com*unist country, would THAT make them happy?? Most of them are woefully ignorant of what that would actually entail. "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it!"

Some hiding from snipers, other in tanks or standing in what are now busy roadways. As you say, the futility of war, but also the passage of time. The men in these photos were probably the age of our grandsons now, or younger, and in the blink of an eye, they are now grandparents, many deceased.

    Moments, minutes, hours, days, months and years pass us by, and each day takes a day of our lives. Generations have passed, and more generations will come. We were created from dust, and we will return under the dust, and only your good deeds that you have given to yourself and others will remain, in which you will remain eternally.

    Wonderful photographic work!, what a pity that the new generations have no idea of all the suffering and chaos that was experienced in the WWII , it was a time of pain and despair, although I am not of that generation I have read and wacht so many documentaries about that war but hearing that melody I have been carried away by emotions,thank you🌺🌹

    同じ場所なのに、戦争によって、建物、人の心は崩壊しています。平和となり、何もなかったように静寂に包まれています。戦争が不幸しかもたらさないのに、人間は戦争を繰り返します。二度と戦争は起こすまいと誓ったはずなのに。全ては為政者の責任です。尊い命を大切に、平和な世界を築いて欲しいと思います。
    Even though it's the same place, the buildings and people's hearts have been destroyed by the war. There is peace and silence as if nothing had happened. Even though war brings nothing but misfortune, humans continue to fight wars over and over again. I should have vowed never to start another war. Everything is the responsibility of the politicians. I want people to cherish precious lives and build a peaceful world.
    Хоча це те саме місце, будівлі та серця людей були зруйновані війною. Спокій і тиша, ніби нічого не сталося. Незважаючи на те, що війна приносить лише нещастя, люди продовжують воювати знову і знову. Я мав поклястись, що більше ніколи не починатиму війни. За все відповідають політики. Я хочу, щоб люди цінували дорогоцінне життя і будували мирний світ.
