How good could it get?
I worked with a German machinist from there who had experienced it at the time.
He didn't think it was so good, and it was a very long time afterwards. Me neither the more I knew.
Just doing his job back when he was a teenager, like I was when we were doing our project.
Not really sure even then if we were contributing to a military device or not.
But it's a high-tech factory, so.
And he was one of the lucky survivors.
Think how everybody else felt.
As they were dying.
They were his friends and co-workers.
Who shared their last words with him. They hated America worse than ever. Not easy to forget.
But he was still able to forgive the average American, including me, and build real friendship.
I even played in his polka band a little.
Would still have the sheet music if it wasn't for a damn hurricane.
