One girl said to Lt. Halvorsen, “After your bombers had killed some of our parents, brothers, and sisters, we thought nothing could be worse.” How would you feel if the people who just bombed, and maybe killed some of your family, were now the people who were there to help you?
When Lt. Halvorsen first gave the 30 children the two sticks of gum, he said there was no fighting; they shared the gum with everyone. Did this surprise you? Do you recall a time when someone shared something with you, or perhaps you shared with others? How did you feel?
