The invasion itself was really just a decoy to get German attention away from the eastern front. It really didn't matter what happened in...
Damn German fighting for his country. And he did qualify as an ace using American standards, he did fly an FW 190. Actually the German pilots...
Right, women love rape. The red army also surprised the Chinese that fought with them against the Japanese. When they "liberated a village" they...
By 1944 the vast majority of pilots the Luftwaffe were putting in the air would not have been acceptable by any of the allies. Between that and...
Even the P38 was inadequate against the 109 and 190. From wiki: After some disastrous raids in 1944 with B-17s escorted by P-38s and Republic P-47...

I think there are very few countries that think the US won the war in Vietnam. Do you not wonder why that is? The US may have won every battle but...
I think if they let the Germans have Bastogne there would have been more "in the bag" than what was eventually there when Patton arrived. The...
The war on terror is not about real estate. It's about the perfect enemy. They are led by no one. They are based nowhere. There may be thousands...
