As an example, he was told to stay near the house since army submarines where attacking Willemstad but instead he went to see the army submarines and went to the end of the pier with his best friend.

  12. EPOLOGE Two years after I was saved, I was on a plane and the plane stopped for some reason on the Island that I was stuck on with Timothy and I visited Timothy’s grave. “You helped me survive and I should have respected you in the first place. I’m sorry you died and I’m sorry you had to put up with my attitude and I’m really sorry. I’ll miss you and I won’t be prejudice to blacks and that’s my promise”. I Said as I cried and I was serious sorry. I know that I’ll miss him and I always kept my promise. I was never prejudice ever again and I made it to Georgia, safe.
