Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU
for your service!
Good evening, radu...a payroll snag right now. I’m just watching. I don’t think I’m needed for anything, but I will stand by.
Hope your day has gone well. No rain for a while, or is it still raining?

Here are comments sent to me with this story:
“There are very few people that I’m completely in awe of, it has nothing to do with success, money, doctor stuff, fame, education, voice talents, etc.. None of that is anything compared to Victor Brombert’s life.
Professor Victor Brombert is worthy of that honor. He is awe-inspiring to me. Unbelievable , & so elegant & educated & not bitter at all. Having gone onto Omaha Beach in 1944 on D-Day!, and on and on, getting very important intelligence information from the Germans (He is a Jew who speaks fluent German. He saved so many allied troops with the intelligence he obtained. And after that he went to Yale & taught all of these wonderful literature courses. Unbelievable to me. 100 years old.
