@RealTimeWWII Literally every time I’m doom scrolling and come across one of these tweets, I’m instantly like “WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS???” And then I realize what’s happening. Not sure I need this kind of spice in my timeline. LOL.
@RealTimeWWII This is so tragic.
@RealTimeWWII I read this in a novel. The Japanese ships sunk by US had US and other allied prisiners in them.
@RealTimeWWII Oh man.
