but have you ever thought how weird it is to have an Italian
(enemy) name on an English school board? (I did and added it to Peace ;-)


Good for you! I hadn't thought of it, but only because I was busy trying to figure out what said Italian nun was doing in Nazi Germany....

Come to think of it, I'm not sure EBD (or the English at large??) ever fully grasped that the Italians were the enemy too! You never hear a Chaletian patiently explaining, "It's not the Italians, it's the Fascists" or exclaiming uncharitably "If I could get my hands on old Mussolini, I'd give him a talking to he wouldn't forget in a hurry!"
