Whether you like her (Fjotsdale) term or not, it is how she views us. Remember also that she did have to endure everything first hand. Not through others. That can amount for a great deal too. My step-father had to endure Vietnam first hand. It was almost more than he could bare. You gain a totally different viewpoint like that. Please don't infer an attack unless you are sure one is given.

I think the point here is Flots might be somewhat phycologicaly scared by what happened to her (who wouldn't be from living in Britian during WW2) and at first Moni was offended by the term Flots used and then tried to show Ms. F her (Moni's)point of view to help her understand and maybe address any issues.
I also served in the military but I would never say that just because I did that you and I see things the same way. It gets even harder when two people are from different countries.
