Tell about yourself and your interest in WWII
I got interested at age 6 after watching
the movie "Heaven
Knows Mr. Alison" in Germany one winter. I thought that
it must be nice and warm there. Also, my granduncle went to Japan
in WWII on a German submarine. All I know is that he was in Japan.
He always showed me one photo where he is standing on the steps of
a hotel in Kobe with a few Japanese Navy Officers. I have to check
if my relatives still have his stuff. Today, I live in Osaka, Japan. |
