Notes.
My Pops fought in the Spanish war. He was a cabinet maker and had three bullet cases in his workshop mounted on a wooden base he had made himself. He told me sugar-coated stories of his time as a soldier, but one thing I know for sure. He never committed an atrocity unless he was forced to when in the trenches.
My eldest son took this picture of me in a graveyard in Bourton-on-the-Water, England. I've edited it with the help of Prisma (just the background).
Thanks for reading.
