I don't want to put any of that in my mind. I lived in Austria after the war and my mother hired women in the Displaced Persons camps so we went back and forth there a lot. One day, mother told me I couldn't go back because there had been another bombing there. I remember the stories (I spoke German very well - actually my first language, but now English is my only language) and I don't want to know more, they told me (really my mother) enough.
