Amazing life Mr. Bauer has led. Very fortunate to have been captured when and where he was and interesting that he and his family were embraced by the occupation forces so quickly as "American" Germans. I have feeling if he had been captured by the Russians we wouldn't have gotten to see this description of such a fantastic life. Great story.
