AS THE INSTIGATER OF WAR, WHO DO YOU THINK, THE MASSIVE COST, FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF FRANCE, SHOULD BE PAID BY ?? THE VICTORS ? FRANCE HADN'T FORGOTTEN THE 1871 FRANCO -PRUSSIAN WAR, WHEN THE GEMANS, WERE VICTORIOUS. THEIR SAVAGE DEMANDS FOR GRABBING FRENCH LAND AND MASSIVE OTHER COSTLY DEMANDS, WERE NOT FORGOTTEN, BY THE FRENCH, OR THE COLLECTIVE MILLIONS OF IT'S PEOPLE, BOTH MILITARY, AND CIVILIANS, KILLED.

Bruce Ismay wasn't the owner, He was the head of The White Star Line, which was owned by 'International Mercantile Marine,' which in turn, was owned by John Pierpont Morgan. richest man in the world. He was booked to travel back to the USA on the Titanic, but cancelled , saying he wasn't well. He had all his Art Treasures ( bought during his European holiday) taken off the ship, before it sailed. He was seen sunning himself on the French reviera , with his teenage mistress, 3 days after the Titanic sailed. Other rich people cancelled. including Ismays wife, saying she wasn't well, but went on a motoring holiday instead.

Born in SEPTEMBER 1941, later, I was given a Mickey Mouse shaped and coloured Gas mask, but I didn't like it, the inside smell of rubber, put me off. Wish I had it now, But I still have the birth identity tag, that was tied around all new borns big toe With Name, Date, and Weight ON IT. My mom said she heard Air raid warning SIRENS that day, but, the PlANES PASSED OVER US AND WENT ELSEWHERE. But, even today, the recorded sound of the Air Raid warning Sirens, I find Haunting and scary.

, ZEPPELINS RAIDED LONDON IN 1915, WITH HIGH LOSSES. BUT, BRITAIN WAS MORE SHOCKED, BY THE FIRST DAYLIGHT RAIDS, BY GIANT GOTHA BOMBER'S. IN ONE RAID,
162 CIVILIANS DIED, 432 INJURED. A HINT OF WHAT WAS TO COME IN WW2. THE EXPRESSION, ''THE BOMBER'S WILL ALWAYS GET THROUGH'', BECAME THE SLOGAN OF THE ERA, AND IN THE EARLY YEARS, WE HAD FEW EFFECTIVE DEFENCES. I'D ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT, THAT THE GERMAN NAVY, IN WW1, ALSO SHELLED SEVERAL DEFENCELESS SEASIDE TOWNS AND FISHING PORTS ALONG OUR NORTH AND EASTERN COAST, WITH GREAT DAMAGE AND MANY LOSSES.
