I'm not sure.
Another thing I hadn't thought was the relative "safety" of Romania, etc from bombing raids. Also a Luftwaffe that wasn't as badly mauled as we faced in 1944.
Maybe we decide to avoid their strength and just wait for The Bomb? Or invade in Normandy (for the same reasons as in...
I have indeed read Marc Milner's book (I have an autographed copy).
So, instead of a June 1944 invasion in Normandy, would they instead invade much further south, away from Germany, supported by a fleet of Air Craft Carriers, drawing the Germans in for a war of attrition as they developed The...
NECRO THREAD BUMP
So, A while back I wrote what amounted to a short story about an alternate history where Hitler is assassinated in 1943. Well, I'm going to alternate *that* history.
I learned recently that in 1943, after Stalingrad but before Kursk, the USSR made feelers for peace with...
I fail to understand why people are afraid of social conservatives. The stuff that the social Liberals are ramming down our Collective throats is appalling.
You mean the guy who won the US Election by appealing to the people, smashing the status quo and riding a bow wave of pent up anger against years of extremist left wing social ideology?

I gave you my advice. There are no tricks. Either find a spouse to watch over your kids, or stay home and be a parent. That is my advice. Take it or leave it.

As a subscriber who has on more than one occasion been a total dolt on these fora, may I suggest that we get back on topic and talk CF-188 and its replacement? Now to get back on topic, please remember that we would have to use said replacement not so much against these guys:
But these guys...
I'm sitting over here wondering why I spent four years to be an infantry platoon commander when I ended up being an infantry platoon commander for a year. Then I spent 10 weeks learning how to be a mortar platoon commander and ended up being a mortar platoon commander for 2 years.
TL;DR...
At the rate we're getting planes, rebuilding our own fleet of CF-104G Starfighters would be better than this display of feces on parade. It's faster than the Lightning II, has a similar ceiling, but less combat radius and less ordnance; but with modern avionics...
Better than the Arrow....
Joe "Snee" Schechtel, formerly of The RCR, The Canadian Airborne Regiment and Princess Patricia's Light Infantry passed away overnight. He was in the loving care of former fellow soldier Rocky Boudreau, at Rocky's place in Costa Rica. Joe had cancer and it really took him down quick. In his...
