Re: Once Upon A Time in Brandenburg: The Lonely King

It also explains something odd I've seen somewhere, I can't remember where, which I kept forgetting to talk with you about, i.e. that it was Granddad Wartensleben who wanted Hans Herrmann to join the army originally while Dad Hans Heinrich's first idea for a career for his son was the law, not the other way around.

Ooh, that is odd. I mean, I already had it in my head (from Wilhelmine?) that HH wanted his son to go into law, but I didn't have any idea what Wartensleben's opinion was. But if that's how he'd made his fortune, that does make sense, yep!

F1, somewhat stunned: "So if I died, how would you refer to me? You would not call me blessed?"

Queen 3: "Indeed not! Only Lutherans go to heaven. I would refer to you as the dear departed."


I would be rather stunned, yes!
