About the author
I grew up in a country before that time. I was in the Protestant youth group, refused to do reserve service, lost my job, did odd jobs for the Protestant church, was visited on an irregular basis by two men in trench coats. The usual games of power. I simply took the "bigwigs" at their word. That was enough to embarrass them and make myself unpopular with them.
