    I posted a version of this image elsewhere, so I thought I'd upload it here too. It's part of a Luftwaffe emblem (JG 11).

    I was not born then. Nor do I speak German, but thanks for the link.

    I was born in 1953. Oddly, though, my first memory in life is a nightmare I had as a very small child in which I was a full grown woman running from farmhouse to farmhouse along with several other people. There were WWII period war planes flying overhead. But we were running from soldiers on the ground - I'm quite clear on that.

    What really spooks me is one of my nephews, who I feel particularly connected with, came to me one day when he was very small and told me about a dream he'd had the night before - when he dreamed he was "a big boy" and hadn't worn his seat belt and rolled his truck.

    It really makes you wonder...

    I mean, I've never dreamt of myself at some other age, other than that one time...

    BTW, that is one hell of a photo you have on your profile page [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

    Deb... I was born in 1960 but I know about WWII
    and the Luftwaffe was the air force for Nazi Germany. Les's picture is an Emblem from that time. I hope that your nightmare has gone away.
    I am glad that you like my photo on my profile page. That is a photo of me next to the emissions chamber at work. Perhaps I have absorbed too much radiation there at work. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

    Did you know your birthday is the same day as Paul McCartney?

    Bit of trivia for you. I have always remembered that because I'm born June 13.

    Great recreation Les.

    I remember WWI by the way. And the Civil War. And the Spanish American War, and the war of Independence, and the Boar War, and...
