My mother and uncle were 8 and 5 in a small italian village when the bombers came and caught them by surprise. My uncle took refuge against this wall and Mum thought it wasn't a good idea and ran amid the mayhem and bombs to coax him away. They got away but a few moments later the wall was demolished. Can you imagine. That was their reality at ages 8 and 5.
