I love listening to your stories. Over and over again i replay them and drift away into some sort of daydream. Your voice is so calming and lovely. Thank you, Grandad :) xx
Ah precious little puppy. Shame he must have been so traumatised. That is such a scary time, one that I'm sure is difficult to recall. Thanks for sharing history with us. Song made me sad for some reason? Very nice song.
Nothing makes the terror more poignant and real than a young man's concern for the family dog. Poor little puppy just as "shit scared" as you. I'm so glad you found him alive!
they should not be moved on their way to heaven ... god bless all those who fell for their countries, whether british, american, german, french or any others who fell in that awfull time my heart goes out to you all
My dog adopted our family, and she lived outdoors like that, but came home for the night. "like most family pets, he was a great little dog" to quote you :)
I loved your story about you and your dog, it made me cry, i never really cry, but this has now a special place in my heart. I lost my dog about 6 years ago and i could never pick her up, and i wish i could once again, i thank you.
Hi, Peter! Just got back from vacationing in my childhood home of Hawaii - glad to see there are some videos for me to catch up on! I loved the song at the end, btw. I'd like to hear about the religious experiences in your life if you have time. I'm curious how you feel about God and the like. Thanks! Love, Wendy
Peter...i think you are more "clever" than you think. your description of you and your pup's transformation into veterans was priceless..please keep the stories coming
Saying shit may not be "becoming" but i guess if ya have bombs dropping around ya then it may be quite an accurate way of describing it..it can't be nice to say the least..
I disagree with brandy333, Peter. I don't swear myself, but I know people who use it only do so to accentuate a situation. For you, who doesn't swear a lot only seems to do so when describing war tales. I fully empathise and young people today can't imagine what WWII could have been like. Swear away, Sir.
Well I think it's very interesting, not everyone has to go through an experience like that and it's important to know. You are an amazing person and storyteller, you move me. I can tell all these experiences made you a terrific person and i thought you couldn't get any more perfect. I can't even imagine how terrifying that must have been. And your dog sounds so cute and he looked beautiful. Poor little thing. And I love the music, it's amazing.
pete. dont let people get to you. they do it just to look stupied. and they get injoy ment from it. y there are strange people all we all know out there. dont put wood on there fire and they will stop.
peter you are seriously " the man"...i love hearing all your stories. Don't let these people get to you...and for you assholes who keep talking shit...no one asked you to watch the videos so go else where and shut the fuck up. He is sharing a expierence from his life and if you dont care to listen to dont listen. Leave your insults elsewhere!
I can only speculate that if you were trapped in an air raid shelter at the age of 14, every moment in fear of losing your life and of your family theirs, you too would learn the true meaning of the words 'shit scared' and climb down off your high horse.
"not every person wants to hear someone bitch about their life story" <--- that makes my comment an opinion, so how am i an idiot for giving that opinion?
well dont you feel stupid, ive seen the other videos and up to this point i thought id let it level out and decide what i thought of it when i had seen enough.
anyways what do i care what you think of me? between you and geriatric youve got a handful of years left.
Oh, smart, Mr. Reaper. You're a genius. Some people in this world actually do care about what he has to say. Some of us are more interested in other things, rather than ourselves, ya know? And here's a genuine idea! Wow, I have it! Get this, this is a great idea... If you don't like it, don't watch it! Isn't it such a smart idea? Wow, what a good idea! I'm so PROUD of myself!!! man oh man! Don't watch and reply to things you don't like. wow....
That's a beautiful story about your dog. That is a priceless picture of him, too. What was his name? Thank you, Sir Peter for sharing that with us....
All Peter's videos are much better than average... but this one was a 10 out of 10 for me. Brought back memories of my dog 55 years ago, and the Texas prison music... incredible!
Listening to your story Peter, reminds me of watching "Masterpiece Theater's UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS". My generation has been blessed, only being brushed past the Viet Nam war. Loved the spirtual at the end!
Hello. I'm so glad to see so many people interested in the lives of older adults. I'm going to help a 106 year friend of mine record her first youtube posting tomorrow. What do you want to know?
Are you serious? Assuming you're not pranking, I think virtually anything someone that age would have to say would be fascinating. Can't imagine having lived the space of an entire century! What does she think is the best invention, and the worst? What government leaders did she admire/feel contempt for? On and on and on....
Thanks again, I really enjoyed that. It's always great to hear someone's firsthand account of something like this and I am honored to have actually heard it, from you, a survivor. That may sound mellow dramatic, but it's true, lol.
The music you choose always provides a wonderful conclusion or comment on what you have shared. "I shall not be moved" reminded me that in the face of wars that we had no part in starting, all we can do is refused to be moved from our goodness, like a tree standing strong at the edge of the river. Thank you.
will you shut the fuck up old man, you talk such bullshit and you do my fucking brains in. you bore the shit out of me, go away, the internet aint for you my friend
you really orta get a life instead of trying to ruine all of what this bloke has achieved, he is an inspiration and he's amazing, i sit up late at night watching his videos. and he has tought me alot over the past to do with life when he was a young lad but only mature people would appareciate that which obviously you arn't one of them
Go wack off to more lonelygirl13 you fucking 12 year old son of a bitch. Shut the fuck up because NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR FUCKING OPINION YOU LIL SHITFUCKER.
Thanks for sharing your stories. I know they are painful to recall. I think your stories will echo through the ages and provide a valuable warning about the horror of war. Thank you so much!
There is a very simple remedy to your dog issue, Peter-- there are several very sophisticated robot dogs out there-- and as far as I know, none of them leave little batteries or oil spots on the carpet. :)
Amazing stories. You have a real gift. I can just feel the horror of it all. It is really important that you tell these stories. There is nothing new about war. Will we ever learn?

Although this story was particularly interesting, the fact that you put music at the end extends the time to over 10 minutes. This lowers the quality of the video overall, and so should be avoided ^^
Sorry, it appears I was misunderstood. I mean actual video quality rather than viewing pleasure. Don't get me wrong, I love listening to the music, but as far as I know the time limit is there for a reason. Just try looking at videos that last for 2 hours+, the quality is terrible.
I love listening to your memories and seeing your litle dog. And that song...Oh my...it gave me goosebumps.You are endearing. Thanks. Kathie aka stormy
This is just as beautifully told as all the rest. Thank you so much, again, for sharing your life stories. You are a wonderful person, i would love to sit in a room with you and hear you tell stories all day. I cant imagine the horror a 14 yr old had to go through during all that. *hugs* thanks so very much. xxx
You're absolutely right; this is great singing. Sad though, how many choose to become devout in their faith AFTER incarceration. Technically, this type of Gospel music doesn't qualify as "blues".
Thank you, Peter, for another outstanding video. I close my eyes when you talk, and I feel you're in this room. God Bless. And thanks also for that wonderful audio at the end.
It was a pleasure for me to hear your story, sir. Thank you. I am 18 and I am happy that I live in the age of relative peace. Hope a lot of people will watch your video and think about the cruelty that affected you, my family and all the world.
Good comment, Matt. I wrote Peter a comment at the new website telling him that his stories AND his choice of music to go along with them are better than what a lot of professional people would select. It's time we gave Peter the respect and wisdom he so richly deserves from all of his fans. Good luck to you, from a music educator...
It was wonderful once again Peter. Please take it easy. I can see all of this is taking its toll on you. Take care Love. You have added another dimension to many peoples life. God Bless you
very very moving ... goosebumps still. Many thanks to Peter for sharing this with us. Lest we forget what it is to be swept up in the vast collective fate of total war.
Thank you for sharing this with us,sir. I agree with the poster above who said that it is important for your story to be heard by my generation. Perhaps hearing from people such as yourself who have lived through war will give us the understanding to prevent other people having similar stories to yours in the future.
Hello Peter I believe your name is I just want to say what is your email i would love to talk to you and what is your skype username fell free to say no I'm new to your video however you are a interesting person and your war experienc must have been horrible however i do enjoy reading about it please tell me it would be greatly appreciated
Also, I believe your accounts of the war told on youtube have value for greater than any of us realize. Within the next few generations there will be no more people to tell 1st-hand stories of the war. It is great that you are able to to reach so many young people and let them know what the world went through for them to live the lives they are living today.
That was a very sweet story. Your dog, right now, is looking up at you from heaven, thanking you for being there for him during the scariest moment of his life.
Hello from México City, the biggest city in the world. We aren't a war-country so stories of soldiers are too far from our common life. Anyways, I found your videos so interesting. You're like an open book sharing us all your experience.
Once again..you make history and war a personal experience and not just a text lesson in school. Sixty plus years later children and their dogs are still being "shit scared".
Thank you for sharing these important stories.
What a cute dog you had. There was great acappella in the ending song.

Sorry, it appears I was misunderstood. I mean actual video quality rather than viewing pleasure. Don't get me wrong, I love listening to the music, but as far as I know the time limit is there for a reason. Just try looking at videos that last for 2 hours+, the quality is terrible.

This is just as beautifully told as all the rest. Thank you so much, again, for sharing your life stories. You are a wonderful person, i would love to sit in a room with you and hear you tell stories all day. I cant imagine the horror a 14 yr old had to go through during all that. *hugs* thanks so very much. xxx

oh yes, great blues singing as well. Thats a great set of recordings, the Lomax ones.
badhands 5 years ago
You're absolutely right; this is great singing. Sad though, how many choose to become devout in their faith AFTER incarceration. Technically, this type of Gospel music doesn't qualify as "blues".

But like you said, it's great to listen to. You should get the recordings of Dr. Harry Oster from Angola Prison (www.arhoolie.com), as well.

It was a pleasure for me to hear your story, sir. Thank you. I am 18 and I am happy that I live in the age of relative peace. Hope a lot of people will watch your video and think about the cruelty that affected you, my family and all the world.

Good comment, Matt. I wrote Peter a comment at the new website telling him that his stories AND his choice of music to go along with them are better than what a lot of professional people would select. It's time we gave Peter the respect and wisdom he so richly deserves from all of his fans. Good luck to you, from a music educator...

Thank you for sharing this with us,sir. I agree with the poster above who said that it is important for your story to be heard by my generation. Perhaps hearing from people such as yourself who have lived through war will give us the understanding to prevent other people having similar stories to yours in the future.

Hello Peter I believe your name is I just want to say what is your email i would love to talk to you and what is your skype username fell free to say no I'm new to your video however you are a interesting person and your war experienc must have been horrible however i do enjoy reading about it please tell me it would be greatly appreciated

Also, I believe your accounts of the war told on youtube have value for greater than any of us realize. Within the next few generations there will be no more people to tell 1st-hand stories of the war. It is great that you are able to to reach so many young people and let them know what the world went through for them to live the lives they are living today.

That was a very sweet story. Your dog, right now, is looking up at you from heaven, thanking you for being there for him during the scariest moment of his life.

Once again..you make history and war a personal experience and not just a text lesson in school. Sixty plus years later children and their dogs are still being "shit scared".
