My grandfather was arrested for working against the German occupation force in Norway, and only the wars end saved him from being sent to a concentration camp. He was always adamant that we needed to put the war behind us live as friends.

Hate has it's use, but great men and women will see the time for hate is over. People like Tuck and Galland probably had more in common than each with most of his countrymen, despite flying for opposite sides. I believe they became friends during the filming of the 1969 Battle of Britain.
