Do you mean this post? Which part of it was copied and pasted from one of Mark Yerger's posts? Help me out here. Be nice and save me the time and trouble of going through all of Mark's posts to find the passage in question. Yes, that's the post (Deplorable,....) but don't waste your time [edit: I s...

On Dec 17 someone answered my topic, but it seems to be deleted now. If I'm not wrong a text was quoted, could the same person that posted it give us the source of the deleted quote?

Here's the translation and pictures from WAF, hope it'll work: Here's the translation, I didn't change much because the text is brilliant. For better understanding here's the accompanying map: http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/1692/scanzm1.jpg This battle was actually one of the rare successful enc...
