Merry Christmas 2010 With An Old Luftwaffe Veteran
Spent a very enjoyable Christmas Day with my old friend, former flak battery commander and Luftwaffe Hauptmann, Hans Wasner. For age 92 (93 in May '11) he's doing remarkably well! Made Christmas Dinner for him, his wife (age 90), and my mother (age 86), who lives at the same independent living complex. Of course, Hans and I had to make sure we had some great Asbach Uralt brandy for our dessert! I enjoy my time with this friendly old veteran of WWII. He and his remaining comrades are becoming ever more scarce as time moves on. Anyone who is as lucky as I am to have such a veteran as a friend should appreciate any time spent with them, as they are here today and gone tomorrow.
