Gran says, "When Kiesl sang 'C.' for me, I felt as if the wind had been knocked out of me. …It's a love song to France, a wistful memory… a cry of pain. He said the music would tell the American and British forces what liberation really meant, and so much more than words could ever do. But I didn't repeat his view to Bill... he might take exception to my part in a camp show being coordinated by an officer in the Wehrmacht." Bill says, "You are going to sing in French?" Gran says, "You think they won't like it?" Bill says, "Honey, just look pretty. They won't care what you're singing. ...And they'll liberate France just to please you."
