There are no ordinary lives.

WARNING: Real Battlefield Violence and Death Depicted.



Ken Burns' new PBS documentary The War tells the story of WWII through the eyes of ordinary people from 4 American towns. One of those towns featured is Waterbury, CT, where I live. I'm looking forward to watching.

Our neighbor Tony was in the war, and participated in the liberation of a small Italian village. He told us that to this day he can still see the faces of the people that were hiding in a church when he and his fellow US troops rescued them.

The War is a miniseries that will begin airing on PBS this Sunday, September 23rd, at 8:00 PM.
