"Bjarne that is a weeks week's ration." "It should not be like this." "We must make the best of it." "It is hard to see what that would be?" "You held your big brother in such high regard." "You were always right behind him when he was going somewhere." "I was a little boy, and didn't understand anything." "I didn't understand why he had to go, and why dad was so angry about it." "Why they shouted Nazi pig after him at school." "Not before dad died." "Not before the Germans came." "Then I could see what it was." "People change." "We all do." "Do it for my sake, Bjarne."
