BACDBLove in the War Transcript: "Going to war was the greatest thing to have ever happened to me," said Albert Thomson, a former soldier. Some people might find this strange, especially considering that Thomson lost an arm and the use of both legs in combat. "Of course, I didn't like the fighting," Thomson said. What he did like was that, by going to war, he met the woman who would become his wife and the mother of his four children.One effect of World War II was that it brought many young people from different countries together. When peace was achieved, these young people often fell in love with people of different nationalities. During World War II, an estimated 1,000,000 American soldiers married women from over 50 different countries. In the Pacific, 16,000 of the 1,000,000 American soldiers married Australian and New Zealand women.

ACABBLove and Hate Transcript: There are approximately four things in this world that I love. I'll put them in order for you, from first to fourth: No. 1, my family; No. 2, my work; No. 3, my friends; and No. 4, my books. On the other hand, there are three things that I hate: No. 1, the suffering caused by war and violence; No. 2, drugs; and No. 3, my ex-boyfriend. And my hate for my ex-boyfriend is growing. By the end of next year, I might hate him even more than drugs.But how does this happen? I once loved this man. How is it that love can change into hate? I think that hate must be grounded in love. In my case, I loved my ex-boyfriend more than I had ever loved anyone else, ever. I suppose that if I hadn't loved him so much, the bad things that he did to me wouldn't have disappointed me so much. As it was, every time he did something hurtful to me, he really caused me pain. When he lied to me, I felt as if someone had kicked me in the face.
