My Dads brother was drowned after the ship he was on was torpedoed, and his son, an only child, died 2 months later aged 21, flying over Burma dropping supplies to the ground troops. I never knew my aunt but I wonder how you cope with a double tragedy like that. Neither bodies were ever recovered. But many women had the same experience.
My Dad served on a minesweeper in the Mediterranean, and at the end of the war in the Far East, but never talked about his experiences. My Mum had a stillborn son, then had to work in a factory making barrage balloons before becoming pregnant with me. How resilient they were. God bless them all.
Is there such a thing as delicious ready meals?
