War Begins

Neville Chamberlain, the British Prime Minister, met several times with Adolf Hitler to avoid the outbreak of war. Hitler promised Chamberlain that his country would remain peaceful and not invade Poland. However, Hitler would go back on his word within six months and, when Germany invaded Poland on 3 September 1939, it was Chamberlain's solemn duty to announce to the nation it was 'at war with Germany'. How would you feel if you heard this announcement on the radio? Add your comments below.
