    Excellent ZA......Alexander Nevsky is it not? Even then the Russians were aquainted with the Germans!

    Oh and I chose the Eastern Front for all of the reasons mentioned above.


    Im really not sure whats wrong with me, but im drawing a blank on ETO abbreviation....

    Maybe I drank tainted Vodka?

    Well, Nosferatu it ain't.

    ETO means European Theatre of Operations, as if the Red Army was operating in Botswana :D

    ETO - European Theater of Operations
    PTO - Pacific Theater of Operations (generally broken into:
    South Pacific - MacArthur
    Central Pacific - Nimitz
    Aleutians - I have no idea who was running the show up there!
    CBI - China, Burma, India Theater
    NA - North Africa

    OST - Eastern Front (I think thats what they're referring to)

    ....and I'm not sure which theater the Manchurian campaign falls into.

    Hope this helps, and, if it doesn't......well......


    -whatever

    -Lou

    OOPS! I didn't see Za's response - it was on Page 2, and I was on Page 1 and.....and....and.....
    (....a page late and a dollar short, so to speak!...)

    We used to have a ratpoison ad here that went: "When you spot one, there are twenty more hiding!" :D

    Well, for us that was the authentic Eastern Front, we were Fighting the Germans in the West. So balls to your slanted historians :rofl:

    We'll make something out of you, you show some promise. :)

    ETO, I'm not really sure why, I just find that the most interesting.

    Za -
    I talked to the historians.







    ....they said 'balls' back.

    (....one of them mumbled something about "...that Portugese troublemaker...", but I didn't catch it....I have no idea who he was talking about!...)

    -whatever

    I am most interested in WWII in France because I'm writing a book that takes place there, and I've actually been there, so it sort of comes alive for me more than other places
