50 years ago my hometown
was hit by a severe storm
and flood!
About 350 people were killed!
As well as hundreds of animals.
I remember it, although I was
quite small.
My dad was a life guard with DLRG
and he was out in the most hit
places for days.
He went away as a young man
and came home with a gray
shadow on his face...

´"He went away as a young man

shadow on his face..." That says it all really. Terrible events like that tend to leave a shadow that might fade with time, but does not disappear.
Oh, daran kann ich mich noch sehr gut erinnern, obwohl ich damals erst neun Jahre alt war.
Lieben Gruß, Petra
terrible! Fortunately, I have never experienced such devastation.
