Characters- Uncle Bittmore & Uncle William
_____
Uncle Bittmore and Uncle William is what you called them. One of them was actually your uncle but you forget which one exactly. Didn't see much of them anyway. Your Grandma called them traitors.
Your family had Swiss ties and the uncles made millions during the war. Not that your family saw a dime of it. Not even when Grandpa was sick. It made your Grandma furious. A real visceral reaction.
No one in the family would ever see that money. It would die with them. Or get redistributed back into the Swiss banking system. The fucking rich get richer!
