Hubert Lintz German Citizen in Cologne Germany

Hubert will be at program for Q & A.  Hubert tells of the rise to power of Hitler and what it meant to the German people.  He will tell  the audience about being in the German Youth.  Hubert remembers when Germany declared war on America hearing a German soldier who had just returned from the Russian Front saying that America will out produce Germany and the America could bury Germany under their trash.  I have two hours of Hubert talking on DVD but, will show only the last hour talking of the actual war years from 1939 to 1945.  Hubert manned a anti-aircraft gun though not in the military because Germany was so short of men.  He was also a volunteer fireman rescuing many people from  fires and collapsed buildings as well as extinguishing the fires in his home town of Cologne which was about 800,000 people before the war but was bombed into dust by the American and British bomber raids sometimes as many as 1,000 planes would bomb Cologne.  Try to imagine losing everything you have.  Not just your home but work place, Dr. office, grocery store, church, all of your adult kids homes, drug store, EVERYTHING !!!!!
