My grandfather John Morris was a WWII bomber pilot. He had very complicated feelings about Anzac Day (mix of trauma, guilt, shame, ptsd I think). I remember him and his mates but not in a glorious hero way, in a that-was-a-deeply-terrible-thing-to-put-people-through way.

Some of the earliest looks of Carbine, I was very much into WWII history, primarily US and the Allies. I was playing a lot of Day of Defeat and the old WWII themed Call of Duty games at the time. Art by and and J.C.

Definitely some oldies, but some of my favorites.

During the Second World War, children and those at risk were taken to places of safety to protect them from bombs and war damage. Some children were evacuated to British Dominions like Canada, what happened to these children? https://t.co/qmtgc0vEM9
