Autumn 1946. A pub owner in Hanover wipes a glass—and freezes. Two British soldiers stand in his doorway.

Only on a small slip of paper—which a father carried in his jacket pocket for decades, never speaking of it. A German man in Hanover wipes a glass—and freezes two. Two British soldiers stand in his doorway. What happened between the German man and the men in khaki over the next few weeks was recorded in no report, in no newspaper. Only on a small piece of paper—which a father carried in his jacket pocket for decades, without ever speaking of it.
