RE: Hidden History: The Sinking Of The Lancastria, A True Story Told Through The Eyes Of My Grandad
Great writeup! Its very sad families will never get to hear the stories of those who did not make it, but then its a wonder the survivors can talk about these horrors at all.
Thank goodness your grandfather could, because all the readers here are the richer for it. Thanks.
Hey, @leftmessage thank you for the support and comment my friend. To be honest my grandfather only started speaking about it again when Marie came back into his life. It must have been difficult for him to have kept her alive for all that time and for then to be pulled apart and sent back to war, wondering what had happened to her and whether she had a good life. With her visit he knew and perhaps felt free to talk about it. Thanks again!
