The citizens of Belfast, Northern Ireland were keenly aware of the
war raging in Europe and elsewhere. They duly put up their blackout
curtain, formed fire-watch patrols and stood patiently in endless
queues with their ration booklets. They never expected the German
Luftwaffe would actually bother to attack their remote island. That
complacency was shattered in April of 1941. After that first
attack, eighteen year old Elizabeth Fleming refused to evacuate
along with her two younger sisters, to the seaside town of Bangor,
thirteen miles up the southern side of the Belfast Lough. Just over
a week later, Elizabeth was caught away from home during the second
and most deadly attack. She was plagued with nightmares for months
afterwards. In late April of 1942, Richard Harrison, a laboratory
technician serving with the U.S. Army Medical Corps, boarded an
army transport ship in route to N. Ireland. Six weeks later the two
would meet at a dance in a Belfast ballroom.
