The two witnesses at Littlecote House graciously let me take a picture of them with my son at the end of their presentation. Rosemary, on the left, worked in her father's barbar shop during the war so met a lot of our military who came in for haircuts. She shared her private picture albums and memories of the time. Monica, on the right, grew up in the era and had some wonderful stories to share. Both of the ladies really brought the war to a reality that hit home with us. It took World War II from something read in a history book to something that really impacted people's lives.
