Where are Cornelius Ryan and Steve Ambrose when we need them?

Any reports from X-20 or X-23?

(I seriously doubt if more than two or three people on the board get this one....)

I think they have actually at the MSU game today outside of MSU and OSU fans there were a decent amount of LSU fans around watching the game.

There were probably around 20 LSU fans in my line of sight from where I was sitting

yep....and did the recon work as well....

quote:

X-Craft were involved in the preparatory work for Overlord. Operation Postage Able was planned to take surveys of the landing beaches with HMS X20 spending four days off the French coast. Periscope reconnaissance of the shoreline and echo-soundings were performed during daytime. Each night, X20 would approach the beach and 2 divers would swim ashore. Soil samples were collected in condoms. The divers went ashore on two nights to survey the beaches at Vierville-sur-Mer, Moulins St Laurent and Colleville-sur-Mer in what became the American Omaha Beach. On the third night, they were due to go ashore off the Orne Estuary (Sword Beach), but by this stage fatigue (the crew and divers had been living on little more than benzedrine tablets) and the worsening weather caused Hudspeth to shorten the operation, returning to Dolphin on 21 January 1944. Hudspeth received a bar to his DSC.

You could've titled this "LSU fans are the best!" and you would've gotten nothing but down votes and snark.

College baseball shouldn't change the balls/bats until TigerDroppings purges the loser/idiots here.
