My wife was born and raised in East Germany, so I've experienced the whole spectrum of Germans at their best and worst. My neighbor, a really nice old guy, was 16 in the Spring of 1945 when the Americans (including the Band of Brothers) got to this town. Shortly before, an American bomber was shot down right outside the town. My neighbor was nearby and went and pulled the survivors out of the wreckage. He got shot and wounded for his trouble. The war was effectively over, and people knew the Americans would be there very soon, so some of them hung white flags from their windows - they were hanged from the lampposts on the bridge down the street. I've got lots of stories like that, but I'll stop hijacking here...

Damn your neighbor is 95? And you mean they were hung by the nazis by putting white flags up?
