You said it it's gorgeous! I have seen the same pic on board panda before but it is gorgeous in color

Indeed

Tell that to the Russians, they've been great at adopting it as a state ideology all while accusing pretty much everyone else of being fascists... :/

there is. On top a couple of stamps and coins and at least 188 schools named after her or her and her brother Hans.

He does have a Scandinavian last name though

The wonders of wool. Modern fabrics are great at being light-weight, but they suck at keeping you warm. A loden jacket will keep you seriously protected

Ah the good ol' days when you wrapped your gift in pretty paper and then in brown mailing paper. No having to look for a box just the exact size so you didn't have to pay extra. And today, how many of us even know the name of our letter carrier?

People were built different back then.

How did the old saying go? Through rain or snow or sleet or hail... Something like that

He looks like the monopoly guy (jk) but this picture is rlly nice

A lot of these returning GIs were terrorized on their return to the U.S. as well.

Prime example of being the better person (s)!

Well they were fighting against a country that would gas them to death

I know a WWII vet, he's 97 and he said although the troops were segregated, everyone knew that they fought hard and deserved as much respect as anyone else.

Id heard that many joined because the social benefits. When you come back, you're no longer white, black, yellow, red, etc. When you return from fighting for the country, you were a Veteran, regardless of skin, at least among other vets. It gave a sense of comradrie they would've have recieved otherwise. Besides, I can imagine that being in a war zone, even the hardest racist wouldn't care if they guy keeping him alive was a different race or not. Its more about "we both live or we both die".

Ever heard the story of the battle of Bamber bridge in England. A the time, the England folks didn't accept the segregation of soldiers in they're pubs. So some of them decided to make they're pubs a black people only pub. The Americans did not appreciate that and decided to try and make another country act as barbaric as them by forcing the pubs to stop what they where doing and accept segregation, but... They didn't. So the Americans decided to try s**t against the pubs and ended up starting an American civil/race war in another country when white American troops started attacking the pubs and the black American troops took arms against them to protect the people in the pub. (This is a true story by the way. I am making none of this up. This really freaking happened)

Yea. You are very virtuous. Thank you for signalling! You are the most virtuous today! Heres a cookie.

And the comment about us all moving forward as one people and actually making things change gets downvoated to the point it gets hidden and I have to click to view it? Yall dumb.

You are very virtuous! Thank you for signalling today! I know we have all taken note.

Ain’t that the disgusting truth. 😡

I really wish this country could stop seeing everything as black and white (literally and figuratively). These are the kind of comments that are continuing to divide our country. They are not helping to bring us together. We all know the past, it's time to move forward as one people. Why can't we just see two strong, determined soldiers on a mission?

Now that country allows men to use women's restrooms and assault them and get away with it

I love her !

Or any of them from the article. They all sound very determined.

Especially with that expression, she reminds me of Erin from Derry Girls. Give her blond hair and they could be sisters.

I noticed her, too. Definitely a fighter. ☺️

I bet, she was the one with the pole, going ninja style! She does have that look!

She's stunning.
