Hei og velkommen her i forumet! I know this is norwegian but i think it is very similar to the swedish. Welcome aboard.
Hey qtmama...You should find what your looking for here...was it your father in law that got you into WW2? Interesting when a female takes an interest.
You look marvelous....Here's looking at you kid. Swiss Miss. lol. What's a girl like you doing in place like this?
Ha ha ha! You guys... I´m not Elin Woods. I would´nt use a golfclub It would be something more refined like....a handgranate! My interest in WW2 acctually began when I started listening to Glenn Miller as a teen. I have always liked sad, dramatic and captivating stories in history in general.
Glen Miller....From memory his light plane was taken out by a 2000lb bomb when it hit the sea (Bomb dump) and the plume of water shot up so much it took his little plane out! - Very freaky way to go...Took awhile to work out what had happened to him...Very WW2.
Is there hard evidence of this? I thought that was just speculation. By the way, welcome aboard qtmama!
Zero hard eveidence...wasn't much left and it was out in the North Sea...The investigators managed to plot his rough whereabouts and then to their horror came across a report that a bunch of Lancasters couldn't find their target so dumped the 2000pounders into the sea about the same time and same place...Then his plane didn't show up...I beleive it.
You'd...you'd actually kill me with a hand grenade? Wow. Think I'm in love already....If Elin had actually decided to use a grenade, I'd bet Tiger would have been a better husband. He'd have hung around home a lot more. They would have to change his name to "Art". ( no arms/legs )
