Who from WW2 would you like to have a beer with?

I would buy Rommel a beer and ask him about his part in the plot against Hitler.

A bloke called Weary Dunlop, a brave and decent man who saved the lives of many Australian and British servicemen on the Burma railway.

Weary would be good too but not between 1942 to 1945 .

I'm a bit soppy with Weary, I had two uncles - both brothers who were taken prisoner in Singapore, they both were forced labour on the Thai Burma railway.

First question:if your not going to drink that can I have it? Second question: didn't you have enough toys when you were a kid?

3: What did you have against Jews?
4: Operation Barbarossa... what the hell was that about?
5: Why didn't you give up in say, January of 1945?
6: What did you think of the movie, "Der Untergang"?
7: Can I have your uniform?

and so, so many more...

I've had the opportunity to do this already, with my father (USMC Ret 1945 - 1975) and my grandfather who was in the Dutch Royal Army and too was held in Burma Prison Camp.
