Happy 75th birthday, WW2...
What would we do without your wildass shootin' match that has given us so many hours of entertainment? As we use to say in the Marines in Vietnam, "Thanks for showing up."

Re: Combat vehicles: track or rubber?...
Should read "tracked vehicles" not "tracker vehicles."

Combat vehicles: track or rubber?...
Tracker vehicles seemed to be the thing at one time. That is, they seemed to get all the glory and romance of shootin' matches. But rubber-wheeled vehicles seem more fitted for the present in that they are easier to ship to areas of concern and more mobile in the field. With the advent of the attack...

Echange of POWs during the war in Europe...
I'm guessing that there was no exchange of POWs between the Allies and the Japanese before the war ended, but I seem to recall some prisoner exchanges between the Allies and the Germans. Can anyone cite some instances in the ETO?

French-made movie about a postwar German sub...
I I saw this movie on Turner Classic Movies a few months ago. A group of influential mostly civilian fascist French and Germans sail for South American in he final days of the war in hope of continuing their political program. Well done French-made story from the late 1940s. I can't remember the nam...

Just finished "Operation Drumbeat"...
Interesting look at one submarine on two sorties to the US coastal area. How does it rate with other U-boot books?

What type of camera did the Japanese use in WWII?...
Did the Japanese military use German-made cameras or did they use Japanese-made cameras? I'm thinking they may have use Leicas. Anyone know?

We had a masturbator in boot camp...
This was at the U.S. Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego in 1967. One guy would whack off after lights out at 2100 and didn't care who knew it. Finally, one of the guys complained to a drill instructor about being distracted by his whacking off. The drill instructor called the hand job specialis...

There is a apparently only three episodes to this docu-drama series that cover the trials of Speer, Goering, and Hess. In the Hess episode there is what I found to be some moments of humor where an American psychiatrist that diagnosed Hess states that he thinks that he had "abnormal homosexual ...

Original name of "Deutschland Uber Alles"...
Was it a song called "Austria With Majesty"? a church song?
Danke Doktor for your reply to my question on the formal name of the Third Reich.

Who would you rather party with? The downside of partying with Stalin is that you weren't expected to laugh at his jokes, whether they were funny or not. Svetlana Stalin commented after fleeing to the U.S. after Papa Joe died that Beria tried to seduce her. Imagine, trying to get into Stalin's daugh...

German warship that was dragged across part of Africa...
I'm thinking World War One incident took place in east Africa, maybe present day Mozambique. Something about a German warship that was moved across land, maybe to a lake or from a lake to sea. Anyone know the story?
