<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 53574, member: 78"]In our little town we had a GBU which was a dance hall and had picnics and fireman parades and celebrations. It was the German Beneficial Union. The town changed the name to Greater Benefical Union but no one in the town ever stopped going there or ever gave the German families any trouble. Who would want to stop the turtle soup dinners????? However during the first war, my grandfather's cousin was visiting and got drunk at the bar and was bragging about the Kaiser being a really great man. Unfortunely going home he fell off a bridge and drowned. It was ruled an accident but with 5' side rails he would have tripped and flown over the rails.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
