My father was an Army officer and before I was born was stationed in Germany. My brother and I were both born there. We lived in Dachau....yes, THAT Dachau. If fact, we lived in old SS quarters. Opened in 1933 and was one of the first and longest running concentration camps.

I'm well aware of how this starts and where it goes. I'm in mourning for this country. It certainly isn't the one I thought it was!
