No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

Secrets of the Dead is on PBS. I DVR and just finished watching the latest episode "Bugging Hitler's Soldiers"
Britain's M19 group bugged three mansions where they housed German soldiers and then recorded and transcribed the conversations that took place amount common soldiers and officers (they were housed separately). Some German historian asking for documents was given some of the transcripts and went looking for more. There are almost 50,000 pages of transcripted conversations.
My WWII history is pretty basic so I learned alot from this episode.

No, but I wish I had. Sounds fascinating.
