Wilton wrote recently about how as a youth he hated Hitler and Tojo.
I was born in 1940. One of my earliest memories is of drawing
crayon pictures of American fighter planes shooting down German and
Japanese planes. This involved a sort of generic aircraft
distinguished by either a star, swastika or spot - the ones with
stars always shooting down the others in flames and smoke. I
remember showing a batch of drawings to my mother when my seven year
old brother wondered aloud whether kids were doing this the other way
around in Germany and Japan. I was horrified but later came to the
conclusion that probably he was right. Maybe a first introduction to
philosophy.
Here is a great collection of mostly civilian photographs of that era.
