My country and other European countries at the time are fighting a war with Germany. Before I was born, in 1918, Britain was at the end of World War I when the Germany surrendered to the British and French forces. Now Germany was controlled by a man known as Hitler. He controlled the Nazi Party who had reared their ugly heads. They said war was their intent to regain the lands, which was supposedly stolen from German nation after the end of World War I in the year 1918. The German Army, early in September 1939, marched their troops into Poland and took over their country.
