Years of war had taught me a great deal, but war was nothing like Dachau. Compared to Dachau, war was clean.Collection: War
Despite official drivel about clean bombs and tactical nuclear weapons, anyone who can read a newspaper or listen to a radio knows that some of us mortals have the power to destroy the human race and man's home on earth.
