My Dad served in th eNavy during WW II. He doesn't talk about it.

My Mum grew up in London during the war. They were at war from when she was 6 to when she was 15, if I remember right. She had nightmares of buzz bomb attacks all her life.

Mum and her friends were in London on D-Day and went to Pall Mall together. They said the crowds were huge, the roars deafening and everyone in a great mood. The bombings stopped, even though rationing of food stuffs went on for quite a while after that.
