If you can provide evidence, I'm all ears. The Buffalo performed excellent service in the Finnish Air Force, so that has to be balanced against...
Well in fairness it mentions planes that couldn't take off; that could only fly in straight lines if they did; that broke apart on landing; that...
I didn't write it.
Oh fer Gawd's sake. As regards planes, I've already posted this once: http://worstworldwar2aircraft.wordpress.com/ Please read. And no, the...
Just thinking how the Crusader III matches up against the T-34-76 on its introduction in October '42. Both tanks have Christie suspensions,...
I tend to think people back-rationalise current German engineering prowess onto their WW2 equipment. i.e. because BMW's are better than...
I didn't suggest it did, other than showing that Montgomery gave some informal television interviews during the 1950's. Now, I have stated that...

Actually, I think a lot of the hatred may have been inspired by Montgomery's post-war behaviour. He gave some pretty vehemently anti-American...
This just sounds like a doctor telling someone they can't have a heart transplant because it will leave their nipples slightly out of position....
It's true that the Panzer armies advancing through the Ardennes in 1940 were on pervitin in order to stay awake. When they reached their...
I think Montgomery should have taken greater control of the battle and pushed XXX Corps harder. Just as Wavell should have taken command at...
I think only Market Garden and Huertgen Forest can be put forward as possible disasters in NWE 44-45. I would classify the first as an...
I don't think MG was Montgomery's operation, though. As AGC he only approved it, along with his superior Eisenhower. I don't think he was...
Boys Rifle and PIAT are both perfectly good weapons. Excellent article on the worst aircraft of WW2 here:...
