I know that, my friend... just getting him to understand that (and he is older than me.. and not much knowledge about FR, nor American thinking..) is difficult :/ I am now getting to reading the comments; took me awhile to get the pics up, having to input a ‘capcha code’ for each pic and addingg the HTML for each took awhile ;::/
Appreciate your doing this. I met a guy from Holland years ago, when I was still quite young, and one of the things he told me was that he could tell that Americans liked him because they busted his b*lls. Everybody’s cultures are different. What we find amusing can be offensive to others, and vice versa. I hope he will eventually understand that we mean no harm, and are grateful for his sharing his family’s photos with us.
Thanks for the work you’re doing to bring these images to us, Bik. Much appreciated.
Please tell your friend that we thank him for sharing these important historical images with us. We’re enjoying this little seen look into history.
