Just when I thought the war was getting boring. Moving up the Solomons with naval, air and ground fighting, the invasion of Sicily and Kursk.
A titanic world-wide struggle. I liked the cartoon of Hitler and Stalin playing the high-stakes game. It illustrates the way I’ve always looked at their struggle. But instead of cash and chips, it’s the bodies of their soldiers on the table.
And the Jews and other civilians they murdered.
An awful lot of people died on the Eastern Front.
These daily postings have really brought home to me the vastness of the struggle in the East.
