Danksound's Musing

By Danksound

My Dad VJ Day

My dad was in Burma serving in the Royal Engineers. He was one who built and destroyed bridges and was first in and last out. He never ever spoke of his war years. My mum had years of him leaping out of bed in the night and not being able to go to the cinema or enclosed spaces for years. After the war with several years of separation my parents couldn’t wait to settle down and start a new settled family life. Dad was a very quiet and reserved polite person. Love u Dad.
