WWII war correspondent for Vogue. Very powerful true story.

I guess since last fall, I've been thinking more and more about WWII and my uncles' fight against the Nazis. I have all the letters written by them to my mother, their Purple Heart citations, and the letters from FDR notifying my grandmother of their deaths. I've been watching movies related to WWII and the rise of Hitler. Saw "Bonhoeffer" in a theater and "Zone of Interest". I can't stop making comparisons, so much so that I am leaving this country.

Please keep us posted on your new life as an expat. Prior to retiring I lived in China and Spain and found both to be a wonderful adventure. Wishing you all the best!
