<p>[QUOTE=&quot;thaivic, post: 838161, member: 23991&quot;]Being half German but born in England in 1952 I grew up with a fascination for WWII but I always had an irrational feeling of guilt for what <u>some</u> Germans did during that period. Then, about 18 years ago on a family holiday in Poland we had an opportunity to go to Auschwitz.</p><p>That tour had a most profound effect on me. My children had never seen me cry and I&#039;ll admit to breaking down and sobbing uncontrolably on two occasions. I couldn&#039;t even talk about the trip for a lot of years (it&#039;s still emotionally upsetting for me even as I write).</p><p>It made me much more aware of the frailty of human beings and made me a much more tolerant person. <u>So let us never forget what happened.</u></p><p>As for the coins of that era? Yes I have some in my collection but I just don&#039;t think of them as specifically Nazi coins. They are just coins from Germany from the 1930-40&#039;s.</p><p>Vic[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
