... Springs on the island bubble up Plutonium which is quite odd since it is generally not a naturally occurring element. I guess it depends on what you mean "generally" or perhaps the quantities "bubbled up". Looking at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plutonium#Occurrence It does...

and numerous claims of such flights being made constitute what any judge would regard as a "prima facie" case. Only if the claims are independent I've seen nothing to suggest they were. Independent of what LWD? ??? Are you really that unfamiliar with the terminology? If so it brings any a...

I really can't understand why you would believe that. Simply look at what the Germans had avaialble at the time. I don't think any of their battleships were available. Maybe one or at the most 2 heavy cruisers. 2 or 3 light cruisers. A hand full of destroyers. And a few tropedo boats that may have h...

Well wiki gives some info at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bazooka#Specifications not sure if that's the total warhead weight or the filler though. This page http://world.guns.ru/grenade/usa/bazooka-m1-m1a1-m9-m9a1-e.html states Shaped Charge warhead contained about 720 gram (1,6 Lb) of high explosi...

But it does. The fact that you don't like doesn't mean that it doesn't it just indicates your inability or lack of desire to confront itmes that don't support your positon. At least I presented data while you simply assembled quotes which suited you. ??? So when you present it it's "data"...

Had I looked up a large number of sites there might have been some validity to that suggestion but the quotes I posted were the majority of the ones that I found in a quick search.. Does not matter at all as that does not mean a thing.You posted what suited you. The data do not support what you say...

A whole hodgepodge of exaggerated statements. Indeed it points to a pretty strong consensus that there were signifcant logistics problems during Barbarossa which is counter to your positoin. No, you just randomly put together a number of statements which suit you. Had I looked up a large number of ...

... Mentioning the progress or lack thereof, is not meant to solicit "poor Haen" responses. I'm sure most of us didn't take it that way. Just to keep you informed and let you know that I have not croaked yet. :D . That's good to hear. Please keep us informed if you can. While I haven't al...

I have noted a tendency for some to take the mention of one factor as a problem and make of it the straw man that it was THE problem. In the case of Barbarossa the logistics issues, resistance of the Red Army, and the size of the USSR are all inter related. For instance neither of the first two woul...

A whole hodgepodge of exaggerated statements. Indeed it points to a pretty strong consensus that there were signifcant logistics problems during Barbarossa which is counter to your positoin. There were no more than the normal logistical issues caused by an advance in depth which is the picture you ...

Interesting but of course the authors might have felt disinclined to state they had messed up might they? And other sources state just the opposite. For instance: http://www.mindef.gov.sg/safti/pointer/back/journals/1998/vol24_2/4.htm In Strategy For Defeat, William Murray states that the superficia...

As I've stated elsewhere I'm sorry to hear that you will no longer be posting. Even sorrier to hear about your medical problems. I wish you the best. Lee Let me know who the turkey is that is giving you such a hard time, and I will harrass that sob with no mercy from here on in. My impression was it...

That is an absurd statement. No, because the fast, deep advance in july did move german forces far from their railheads beyond the distance within which you can supposedly be fully supported. And the pause at the end of July and early August was so that the infantry and railheads could catch up wit...

???? Can you point out another example that closely paralles this? If you can't it clearly was not normal. Whether it would cause prohibitive problems or not is another matter. It's difficult to prove that but given what I've read it seems likely. From your response below I take it that the answer ...

Of course they didn't prevent the above operations they just guaranteed that they would fail. Clearly inadequate logistics shoud preclude some operations. Rommel's adventures in Africa are a nother mark on the wall. It boils down to two qeustions actully. 1) was the German log network adequate to s...
