[QUOTE="ORothlain, post: 310953, member: 13427"] My Grandad was a courier for the US Armed Forces in WWII. He was in the UK before the Americans showed up and ran a route both within London and from London to Ireland (not sure the full extent of his duties outside of running mail back and forth between high ranking officers stationed there). He described the blitz in pretty amazing detail. One day his route would be fine and the next day he'd have to figure out a new way to run his messages as streets would be impassible from the debris. It's amazing when you look at the buildings in the city of London in particular you can see how many buildings were blown away by the new architecture in the rows of homes. [/QUOTE]
