Since my invasion Oahu scenario was posted in the "What IF" discussion section of this board, what is your problem with that ? Except that...
After posting evidence that General Short was so short of trained gunners that he could not man both his coastal defense and AA guns, I remember...
John, Did we somehow loose a posting of yours in there ? At least until the Alzhimers sets in ... Sure there were anti-sabotage...
An "interesting" supposition against a stationary target perhaps but how exactly does one boresight a gun at a "dodging and weaving" enemy...
Is there a particular reason (with source please) why you feel that way ? But what has any of that to do with this thread, which you in your...
John, Its nice to see you back again. I don't think that a supply of strong backs would have been the problem but rather the training and...
The first use of the word "minutia" here on this thread was by you so I think you to be the person best qualified to explain what you meant,...

Sorry myself for not being more clear but I didn't think that I had to repeat it three times ? Whoa ! How/when/where did you exaggerate up from...
Jagdtiger1, I'm sorry if I have caused your self-inflicted pain. I was under the impression after reading John Dudek's posting #1 here that he...
Your comment once again proves that you don't actually read my postings. If you were to return to line #5 of my posting #11 above you would...
Lastly, I present General Short's also NOT chosen Alert Level #3: General Short then goes on to explain his choise of Alert Level with: This...
As previously promised, one of Short's two other NOT chosen defensive options: As you can clearly see, this option #2 focuses some American...
Let me start this posting with an apology for the "technicolor rainbow" that was my last posting here. I had just posted 9 other messages to 4...
Sure I read it. I've highlited the original text in red below and I've added my own comments [thusly] to indicate that what I read was not...
