“..(great grand dad war stories) but he said that Eleanor Roosevelt wanted to intern returning soldiers in camps because of the violence they did and saw would make them unsafe to return to society.”
Sounds just like Eleanor Roosevelt. She could give Hillary & Michele lessons in how to be a power b!tch. All three had flaky notions about American democracy & liberty.
FWIW, my grand dad, a WW1 vet & coal miner, hated the Roosevelts & in 1941 forbade my Mom from visiting Hawaii with friends. He warned, “that rubberlegs SOB will get us in a war with the lousy Japs before the year’s out!”
I tried researching under different key words but nothing really showed. I’ll keep trying to pin it down. Unfortunately GGD passed away so there’s no finding out.
