Happy heavenly birthday to this sweet soul. It’s also Veterans Day, Syl is from Belgium. When the Nazis were storming through his town, his father came upon a US soldier whose plane had crashed in his field, they hid the soldier in their massive haystack.
The Nazis came looking for the soldier, and threatened to kill Syl’s entire family if they did not give him up. He said I don’t know what you’re talking about. The soldier and the whole family survived.
Happy birthday, Syl
@Armchaircouch what a wonderful woman who obviously raised wonderful humans.
Syls mother had 16 children. When the dead Nazis were lying on the side of the road, she had her boys go out and cover those boys up with sheets.
out of respect for their mothers.
