Alps by Tank

Dad was 85 when Sis pulled the WW II stories from our father. Even dementia is a blessing when it opens up the way past. As a radioman on a tank destroyer, they rolled through Europe and North Africa. Imagine the Alps by tank! When it ended, they rolled into camps and saw the survivors. He saw the very best and very worst of humanity - in living, stinking color.

Nothing unfinished
A good life lived fully reconciled
He can go now God
