Re: war crimes
bearing in mind the punishment for refusing would have been in most cases the firing squad. This isn't the case. Christopher Browning has documented numerous cases where men who refused to participate in executions were allowed fall out without fear of reprisal. The fact that most men chose to part...

Re: Underpants.
Whats's the verdict guys.... The verdict? I'd say: yes, Saddam is living proof that the Atkin's Diet works . . . That's what you meant, wasn't it? Looking at those photos, I'd say the guards should check Saddam for hidden WMDs. It looks like he's got a Scud tucked into those pants of his . . . Wurg...

I'm looking forward to a return to stimulating discussions with the learned folk here, while hooting down the...

Did you actually read the book, Heinz? Whoops! Sorry . . . That was insensitive. I mean, did someone read it to you? Just once, I'd like to see you actually post some personal criticisms of these books rather than recycling other peoples reviews. Now I know that thinking for yourself is foreign to y...

I've got Littman's book and have been reading it off and on for the last little while. As the title suggests, the book concentrates on the issue of war crimes rather than a history of the Division. If you are looking for a unit history, you'd best look elsewhere. Having read many of Littman's articl...

The defense lasted two and a half hours and my paper was approved by the committee pending some relatively minor revisions. Had to finish those relatively quickly in order to get copies submitted for binding on Sept 30th, but managed to pull it off with only a slight loss of sanity. To make a long s...

Hello Doc, I agree with you completely as to the numbers of aircraft that were interned in Switzerland and the reasons why they ended up there. The lion's share of the aircraft that landed in any neutral nation were, in fact, battle damaged and could not return to base. However, there were exception...

Hello Prit, I've encountered the same problems with people who try to exploit wargame rules to their own advantage. However, over the years I have employed a number of tactics to eliminate this problem. 1) I'm very picky as to whom I play against. 2) I only play scenarios, in which the forces deploy...

A two part post: Part One-Historical: I would strongly debate the confering of 'elite' status of the Waffen-SS after 1943. The expansion of this arm, the lowering of recruitment standards (or in some cases abandoning volunteerism in favor of conscription), and the chronic shortage of competent NCOs ...
