My dad never talked much about WWII either. As kids we had hints, but not until after I came home on leave from Basic Training after enlisting di dhe give me details.

Interesting how that works...

I know I can only guess, but you've told some of your Dad's story, before. He must have seen things in Warsaw that would make your hair stand on end. I wonder if he didn't think you had to have some kind of military background before you'd understand those things...

I know my F-i-L was very old fashioned in his thinking...his experiences were compartmentalized, and nobody in the family needed to know what he knew.
