Here is one of our most recent interviews with Milton and Charlotte Johnson, aka Oma and Opa, from Delanco, NJ.  Milton served as an American GI in Germany. While stationed in Germany, he met his wife, Charlotte, who is from Austria. They got married in Germany and had to marry four times for it to be legal.
