now this story i a big thing to me because no one will listen to it because their all busy with their jobs and kids but i can now tell it. i was in my house when a alarming sound. my father came rushing in shouting 'the germans are bombing the germans are bombing' so we rushed out of the house to the nearest shelter. once we were there the were loads of people their and before i knew it my father had dissappeared so after the bombing died down we all surface and there he was on the ground with a women in his arms.they closed the doors on him becaus ehe was helping a woman who had fallen. but she wasnt the only one.
