There's a lot of bread on that table.


Schweinfurt, Germany, about 1946. My Dad's twin, Jonė—on the right—joins fellow scouts for a meal at the Displaced Persons camp. Recall Jonė's mother, Tatjana, had complained about the lack of bread elsewhere in postwar Germany.

UPDATE: I earlier misstated Jonė's position at the table. Thanks to commenter Meade for catching the error.

"Jonė—on the left"

On the right, wrong?

Ah! Typo. I hate when that happens. Rats! I will fix it.

Thanks, Meade!
