August 31, 1939 Dear Diary, My stupid cousin Oswald Von Voch keeps writing to me telling me about his

glorious country and all about the wonder and majesty of the Third Reich. What a bunch of nonsense. His dad works for the SS. He runs some labor and relocation camp for the Nazis prisoners. What that means I have no idea. My dad told me that the Nazis dont like the Jews. I love the Jews. I have a ton of Jewish friends. My dad, being a lawyer, has represented tons of Jews and they eat at our house and bring their friends. I have 3 very close Jewish friends Joshua, Alexander, and Michael. I cant imagine why anyone would completely hate a whole race like the Jews. Maybe some other racesnevermind that. I am very tired. Goodnight. -Owen.

September 6,1939 Dear Diary, On the first, the idiotics Nazis invaded Poland. Pretty much begging France and England to declare war on their sorry selves, which thank God they have. I cant begin to tell you my absolute hatred for Germany and the Nazis and their ridiculous torturous rampage theyre inflicting on Europe and its innocents. My stupid second cousin Oswald with his Nazi racist father who runs a relocation camp couldnt be happier about this event, he says the war will be over shortly. How little he knows. What a complete idiot. The war is far from over and the Nazis will not win. I just hope the US will get in soon so that we can be enemies. My father has been monitoring my letters to my bloodthirsty cousin forcing me to be nice. It wont last long. Tensions will continue to build between the US and Germany and I will be forced to tell him exactly how I feel. -Owen.

June 24, 1940 Dear Diary, Hitler conquered France on the 22. The weak and girly French government surrendered. Now poor England has to fend for itself. Thank God they have a leader as amazing and willing as Winston Churchill to lead them through this war. If England falls, the whole of Europe falls, and then Hitler will be knocking on our door in no time. My parents have already talked to me about how they feel about Hitler and Germany. They have heard rumors about what he has been doing to

Jews in these camps and wont even tell me about it. It must be dreadful. Maybe hes not giving them enough to eat or making them work or something. That would be really bad. My parents also told me that as Americans we should be worried about the German threat but since were family with the von Vochs we need to be cordial and nice despite our strong disagreements. All I can think about right now is how scared everyone in England must feel now that their main ally is gone. Poor Winston Churchill. Franklin Roosevelt, my honorable President, enter this war and help our dear British friends. -Owen November 18, 1941 Dear Diary, FDR has just won his third term! The first President to ever do such a thing. I bet you none of the other ones even thought about it. Thats how smart FDR is. His only fault right now is that he hasnt gotten in the war yet! This stupid country doesnt want him to well who cares! The British our suffering. We need to preserve freedom and democracy and kill these German beasts before its too late and they are sending their Navy straight to New York City. My dad says that we musnt be rash but I disagree. The sooner we enter this war the better. If we take too long Germany will only be stronger and more capable to attack us. So I think we should just enter now. Build up our army swiftly and then surprise attack then in Berlin. Thats an idea Franklin Delano Roosevelt should consider. -Owen. December 9, 1941 Dear Diary, Two days ago, out of the blue, the Japs attacked our US naval base in Hawaii, Pearl Harbour. More than 2000 were killed and our naval ships there were either severely damaged or destroyed. My government declared war on all the Axis Powers yesterday. That means Oswald will soon be at the hands of the American army. What a great feeling. Germany hasnt declared war yet but they will and within the week. Im proud that my nation is going to go against these ravenous wolves hungry for innocent life. I am very sorry that the Americans at Pearl Harbour had to die, but I am very happy that the US is finally entering the war. I am confident it wont last too long, however you never know. Churchill must be elated. I wouldnt be surprised if he planned the whole attack himself. Just kidding. Churchill is the most brilliant leader on the face of the Earth, second to FDR of course. I will pray for the souls of the departed at Pearl Harbour and pray

for the German army going against the best country in the worldtheyre going to need a lot of prayers. -Owen.

June 7,1944 Dear Diary, Three days ago the Allies took Italy! Finally! I knew it was inevitable but when it would finally happen I didnt know it just went on and on and on and on and on and on and on. We soon will invade France and then head on to Germany. Italy took such a long time. Germany must be on pins and needles. I heard Hitler is getting even more cranky and has been crying! But I heard that from my stupid friend Nick so it probably is just a stupid story. I hope everyone in Germany, including my lovely cousin Oswald and his family is beginning to see who is boss. America owns. Period. -Owen P.S. I will be dreaming of victory tonight.

June 11, 1944 Dear Diary, On June 6, the Allies invaded France. They invaded on the beaches of Normandy. So far all we know is that there have been heavy losses but that we are pressing on. I am so happy that we are still on the up and up. We are on the verge of winning the war I know it. Taking France will be a piece of cake and after that with the help of the UK and the Soviets, on to Berlin! I cant wait til we close in on them. Oswald told me how scared he and his family are. Good! I hope the Allies bomb their town! No just kidding. But I do hope they get what they deserve. Maybe they should be put into one of those camps! When we win, the armies will surely be able to figure out what was actually going on inside them. Then his father and his family will probably be shamed for the rest of their life. I just hope my relation to him wont have any effect on my future political career. Im going to be the next Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill combined. That might be hard considering their political opinions are so distinct. But who cares. I will make it work. -Owen.

April 13, 1945 Dear Diary, Yesterday, FDR died and Harry S. Truman replaced him. I am speechless. I dont even know what to say. When my parents heard the news on the radio, my father looked like he had seen a ghost and my mother cried. I am so sad. The US is in mourning for the best leader it has ever seen since Lincoln. FDRs name will go down in history as a strong leader leading his country through the Great Depression and putting us on the right track to finish up the war quickly and win. I hope Truman will be able to continue in FDRs path of glory. I really hope that he will be able to. Harry S. Truman, you are in my prayers tonight, you have a lot to worry about. -Owen.

May 13, 1945 Dear Diary, Im so sorry I didnt write to you sooner but Ive been too busy rejoicing. GERMANY SURRENDED ON MAY 8!!! WE WON. THE WAR IN EUROPE IS OVER! I received a letter from Oswald yesterday saying how scared he was. YAY! Hallelujah! My prayers and the prayers of my country and all of Europe have been answered. Hitler is dead and Germany is ours. Thank you Jesus! This is amazing. Such a glorious victory. Now all we have to do is kick some Japanese behind in the Pacific and its over once and for all. The bloodiest war in the history of civilization will be over. My parents both cried when they heard the news and throughout the whole neighborhood people ran out of the homes and celebrated. Church bells rang and people shouted things like USA USA USA! And God Bless America! I am elated. Now our boys in Europe will come home to much fanfare. The war in Europe is over.wow. -Owen May 30, 1945 Dear Diary,

The US has continued to liberate camps throughout Germany and its old territories. The horrors found in these camps is beyond beliefe. Gas chambers to kill Jews by the truckloads then crematoriums to burn their bodies after. Thousands of living skeletons skulking around the camps looking for food was all the Army saw when they entered the camps, including Mauthausen, the one my uncle, Oswalds dad ran. My parents told me there is no need to have any connection with them anymore because they are no longer our family. I feel bad for Oswald. I doubt even he knew what actually went on behind those camp gates. Apparently millions of people were murdered in these camps in the German way, swiftly and efficiently. Its really depressing. I cant believe I am related to someone who could be so cruel to so many innocent people. -Owen.
