    1. Re: [FOLKS] Indians in Niagara Falls
    2. Foreigners? :-) ... During WWII, my dad was a radio man. He spent several years in different parts of Europe. Two of the other guys in his company were Printup and Aarons. (Vee will recognize the first name.) Both of them were Tuscaroras. If you've seen Windtalkers, you know why they were radiomen. Germans never could figure out how to break their code. When they returned after the war, Mr. Printup was probably one of my dad's best friends. My brothers spent weeks in the summer at his place, where he taught them how to hunt, with real bow and arrows. They considered it some of the best times of their childhood. He gave them each their own bow and arrow, and I know they still had them a few years ago. If not for the war, though, they probably never would have met. And if not for that they both were from western New York, the boys would never have had that chance. Kathy
