What ended up happening was that they were the ones to ruin their lives instead. The many atrocities she committed for “democracy” imbued the wedding ring she bought for her husband, with the hate , fear and pain of all the victims. She tried to leave it all behind by moving with her husband to London. Frederick Newman Senior sadly passed away through a tragic , unlucky car accident leaving Gladys a Women. Freddy still tries to spend as much time as he can with his mother but sometimes her mind wanders off , wanders off back in to the war.

The only thing that she has left from the war is the smell of burning human flesh in her nose and sleepless nights.
