When ‘Remembrance Day’ happens every year on 11 November, I
am always humbled by the fact that humanity came together to defeat an evil
like no other in the history of mankind.
In this respect the world would not be like it is today if Hitler had
built the ‘bomb’ first and where historical information uncovered after the end
of WW2 determined that he was not that far away from securing the world’s most
destructive weapon of all time - for just only one of these bombs had a deadly
killing factor going into the hundreds of thousands as was shown later. Indeed,
we in Europe would now most probably live in a
world controlled by dark forces (the 1000 year Reich) and where humanity would
have been subservient to the will of this evil.
My late father who was a medic and stretcher bearer always
at the front once said to me that it was like hell on earth as they were
relentlessly pounded 24 hours a day by the Nazi war machine for months on end.
One minute a colleague at his side, the next completely obliterated and nowhere
to be seen. But his most distressing scene of all was when the British army
liberated a Nazi death camp on the way to Berlin . He then knew the reason clearly for why
he had been fighting this horrible war and why he had risked his life time and
time again. It was not for the bravery and valiantly medals that he had been
awarded from D-Day onwards, but for the overall future freedom and inhuman
suffering that humanity would endure under such a tyrannical and evil controlling
power. That was the only time that he
ever opened up to me or to any others and where I have found the same with
other war veterans. Over the years I have come to understand the reason for
this and where they only wanted to forget the living nightmare that they had all
experienced. Therefore when 11 November comes everyone should reflect on the
fact that millions gave their lives so that humanity can now live predominantly
in a free world and where freedom is a reality, not what it could have easily
become. We should never forget what happened and our young should always be
told what their forefathers did for their freedom.
