Hi,

The investigative team is moving on to Lee Harvey Oswald conspiracy.

Re: Poll: Bunker or Argentina?

Watch what you are asking for. Season II "Hunting Hitler" premiers in less than a month on History channel.
Maybe we'll finally get the answer. They'll find him with the "Gold Train".

Just purchased Doug Nash's "Victory Was Beyond Their Grasp" the 272 VGD's battles in the Hurtgen Forest. Very interesting, highly detailed book. Congratulations and thanks, Doug.

Re: Ruhr Pocket

Hello,

Breathing life into a long ago thread. Does anyone have any information on the combat strength of the divisions trapped in the Ruhr Pocket at the end of the war? Troop strength, armor strength, artillery?

Thanks in advance for any information.
