Day 147- another email sent today no name!


I just received this email - author unknown!!!!!

I have continued to read more of your Dad's memoir on your blog.


I think you should read about how German soldiers were treated by the
Allies after they surrendered to end World War II.


Read this website for a start:

I wrote about Eisenhower's death camps on my website at

I wrote about how German "war criminals" were imprisoned at Dachau on
this page of my website:

The attitude taken by your father in his memoir makes me very angry.  He
was legally a war criminal.  Yet he expected good treatment at the hands
of the enemy when he was captured.  The Germans were legally Prisoners
of War after they surrendered.  But General Eisenhower changed the rules
of the Geneva Convention so that the Germans could be legally mistreated
in his death camps.


You need to look at World War II from both sides, not just from the side
of an illegal combatant who was not satisfied with his treatment.  If he
had been in one of Eisenhower's camps, he would have had something to
complain about.


I am now through reading your blog.  It is too upsetting to me.
