Details like "My German ancestors settled in Washington D.C., and they had nothing but troubles during WWI & II.". Go figure, people with German accents and/or names being under suspicion at a time of war, against Germany, in the nation's capital. I'd be just as shocked to hear the same story for residents of Norfolk, VA (major Naval station). ;') Brian On Tue, March 29, 2011 6:41 am, Pat McCoy wrote: > My German relatives lived in the D.C. area so > that may have been a factor in the kind of grief > they got during both World Wars. > > Pat McCoy, M.S. > > Addiction Psychology > > Slow Down and Enjoy Your Garden!
