Read by chance today, as I am sorting papers out for action this week .......
Hitler adamantly refused to go and see the bombed streets of Berlin, despite Goebbels pleading with him to do so for propaganda reasons.
By contrast Churchill insisted on visiting the bombed areas of east London in 1940 and stood in the ruins of humble houses with tears streaming down his face. Lord Ismay, who was with him, tells how a woman in the crowd said "Look, he is crying. He really cares!"
Now that gets to me.
Triggers tears in me!
I think why.
Not got the answer yet.
