Wow man..
I think we in the states dont truly appreciate the war torn towns in other places.
Sure we had 9-11, and the south got torn up pretty bad in the war between the states, but we have not yet had constant bombing from an evil enemy.
I watch History channel with scenes of London getting bombed night after night and I just cant imagine what that would be like.
Glad you guys made it through.
Thanks for posting this, we all need reminders from time to time to let us know how good we really have it today.

Yours is very different than mine was about that time.
