    I am not aware that someone fought in the war, but my grandfather was a forced labourer in Hungary and Austria. He was taken by the axis to work. He then fled austria and escaped, he went on his feet through woods etc.

    Unfortunately for the Axis for most of the war. But hey you can't really choose that. My gramps, who was normally a dentist, was a surgeon during the war but stayed in country. My other one I think was an officer and stationed at some barracks for the most part but they encountered Russian troops on the counterattack toward the end. Then the government switched sides. I had some more distant relatives who actually fought and died as part of the Axis push toward Stalingrad, where the tide was turned. I believe the vanguard was mostly things like Romanians, Hungarians, and Italians rather than actual Germans.
    The worst potential competition for any organism can come from its own kind. The species consumes necessities. Growth is limited by that necessity which is present in the least amount. The least favorable condition controls the rate of growth.

    Memory never recaptures reality. Memory reconstructs. All reconstructions change the original, becoming external frames of reference that inevitably fall short.

    Historians exercise great power and some of them know it. They recreate the past, changing it to fit their own interpretations. Thus, they change the future as well.

    Those who would repeat the past must control the teaching of history.

    My dad's side (Danish) did nothing and just sat there, like a good, obedient occupied nation usually does.
    All the men on my mom's side (Russian) of the family (that I know of) got BTFO by bolsheviks or died in the first war so there was no one to fight there.
