Everyman's War Page #7

no power on earth can restrain.

Every day we see relatives and friends

being taken away

as Jews are being called

to report to labor camps.

How awful this war is.

How l long for the life we had together,

to have the blessing of a future and hope.

Despair often overtakes my soul.

Forgive me.

However hard it may be,

we shall do our utmost to survive,

but today l have made my peace with God.

May every man on earth be

as good as you have been to us.

l give you all my love and a thousand kisses.

l love you to my last breath.

''Your loving wife, Greta.''

l'm going now, my friend.

l think we both have things waiting for us.

May every man on earth be as good as you

and those like you.

Hi, can l change my ticket destination?

Am l too late?

Don? Don?

Would you like some lunch?

Don?

l'm the last.

The last what?

l'm the last guy in my crew.

l'm still around.

ls that bad?

Don.

Just thinking.

About?

l wish-- l wish they were still around.

What's this?

A letter.

When is this from?

Back then.

l carried it, but l never sent it.

lt's to me.

Yes.

You didn't send it.

l just needed it.

lt was my hope, a way home,

something to hold on to.

You and me seemed so impossible.

l almost lost it.

l've forgotten so much.

Well, l remember waiting for you.

Then one day there was this

handsome soldier

finally coming home to see me.

l hope it was all worth it.

lt was, Don. lt was.

Dance with me.

l'm on duty.

That's okay.

lt's okay.

There's no music.

You be the music.

lt was 1943 when l went to war.

l was almost 19.

l returned from war in 1945.

l was now 21 .

l had seen more

than l would ever want to tell.

Some things had held on to me

more than l had realized.

But some words, some hopes, and dreams

were never meant for paper.
