    I am a historian a baby boomer born after WW2 I really developed my interest in history because of my dad also had this interest. At college this gave me the opportunity to develop my studies in European history. I really enjoy your programs. I often heard about those cemeteries in Munich. Keep up the good work. When I retired in 2015 I had planned to do my travels in Europe. Unfortunately, I had a major relapse with my MS. which has sidelined me

    Traudl Junge (Hitler's secretary), Josef Kammhuber (Luftwaffer General), Kurt Huber (Nazi resistance hero), Wilhelm Von Leeb (Field Marshal and commander of Army Group North in operation Barbarossa), Otto Schury (General with Knights Cross) are also there...great roam around that cemetery LT, obviously the younger generation will know little about WW2.
