bread was hardly palatable as it had been made with wine instead of yeast uine and the sweepings of the local flour mill the y east factory had been bombed by the british and wine wat the best substitute available the boy couldnt speak english ei thcr but with the phrase book we learned that they wanted us to stay put the woman came back later with the boys and led us to an isola ted barn a bit apart from the town it turned out that this barn was a safe place to hide as it was owned by the towns quisling we hid in the hay german search in the morning our friends came back again with a razor cold water but no soap we noticed that the ra zor was american we must have been a bit delirious then because at tb sujht of the razor we jumped up and ran out into the town banging on doors searching for its owner the poor people who answered their doors slammed them again in terror once they saw we were allied invaders we cornered one poor soul on the street and began peppering him with ques tions in english just then a german staff car sped through the village we werent not iced for some strange reason but it sobered us up but quick we dashed back lo the barn we still hadn t ac
