This is very interesting. I'll back up and start reading from the beginning.

Yeah, I also find it interesting, but I made my dad mad, so so much for that :(

Whewwwww....so glad your dad hurt his knees!

[days_unfolding]

Yeah. I'm amazed that he survived everything.

Will all these related posts be under the tag, "dad"? I want to read them all at once sometime.

[days_unfolding]

Yeah. But there won't be any more because I made my dad mad.

[madman101]

I would have thought he would have been proud. But I'll read up on that in your post soon.

That's horrible! Thank God he wasn't there. To this day, now and then an un-detonated bomb will be found here.

[days_unfolding]

Even to this day? That's scary!

Yes, to this day. We used to live in Mannheim where a 500-kg bomb was recently found: https://www.msn.com/en-za/news/other/wwii-bomb-discovered-and-defused-in-mannheim/ar-BB1fX0d7

A more recent find was a 250-kg bomb found on 29 January of this year in a suburb of Mannheim, but I could only find German news articles on that.
