I thank Don Knox, author of "The Death March" for friendly advice. He used my sketches.
I thank Peter Collins, Art Editor of Time-Life Series on World War II, for his visit to Vero Beach, and for the time he spent going over the material for Blood Brothers. He used my photographs.
I thank all those good people who have made my life worth living
since "The War."
I thank the "Good Lord" for forty wonderful years of "Borrowed
Time." It's fun to still be alive in eighty-five!
THE LEGACY OF WORLD WAR II TO OUR CHILDREN
In his book, "The Second World War," Sir Winston Churchill called World War II, "The Unnecessary War," stating that "Hitler could have been stopped in 1935, in 1936 and even in 1939, if two Western democracies had not been too timorous (afraid) and too stupid to react."
At that time, the political leaders of the Western democracies were:
Franklin Roosevelt
Joseph Stalin
Winston Churchill
