Message 1 - American food?

I'm 48. My dad was in field artillery in France and Germany. My grandfather fought Bolos. in Russia in 1919 under English command.

Sorry we disgust you. I'd rather eat Spam than not eat. I just finished Churchhills memoirs. You might want to read them too. Things were tough then.

A soldier from an Army Reserve unit in our town was killed in Iraq two days ago. Left a wife and two little kids. Sometimes you give up things sometimes you give up everything.

Read about Chamberlain. Maybe if he had done the right thing..

There were a lot of millionaires created out of the war in the US. But it wasn't just the food imports. Does anyone remember the armaments, in particular, the 'Tommy Cookers'?(Tanks).
