Barking . . . absolutely barking

as only the English can be at times. I made time to watch Two Men Went to War at the week-end. It is an account of events that one would believe could not have happened. But they did. A sergeant and Private of the Army Dental Corps land on the northern coast of occupied France in 1942 on a mission to blow up the Scharnhorst . . . with hand-grenades . . . and without permission.

     The paragraph I quoted in the last post from the book I'm reading made me wonder if a journey in the opposite direction made by a Jewish boy with crates of artwork and furniture would have been possible in 1942?
