That title goes to a B-29 incendiary raid on Tokyo the night of March 9-10. This bombing raid alone killed over 100,000 and flattened almost 16 square miles of the city.


This is not true, just more left wing propaganda.

Everyone knows it was Godzilla....

I think there would have been a stalemate with Britain for a few years, them a grand push across to Britain. It would have been bloody. And ultimately I believe Germany would prevail after a bloody 2 year fight.


I don't think so. Had France been occupied I suspect Britain and Germany would have found a way to quit fighting. The Germans were not really out to conquer Europe. They weren't evil like the Nazis that would follow them.

If the Germans had captured Paris that first year the USSR might not have ever come to be because the Craz's army wouldn't have been all across Europe and the Russian people would not have been so weary of such a costly war.

Go study WWI, it transformed the world more than any event since the discovery of the New World. Keep in mind that WWII was only possible as a result of WWI. As for transforming the world, WWI had the following effects, just to name a few.


This 100%...if anyone has the time listen to Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast on WW1 from the beginning to the way it ended how changed our world even to today. Many of the political, religious and military hotspots in today's news have their roots to WW1.

Sometimes you guys are just ridiculous. Beyond the damned pale. Photos of Obama "war room" during a very successful bin laden mission gets thumbs down. Y'all are worse than Trump and his Obama envy. I suppose you idiots are fans of bin laden?

General Patton's dog following his death





Lieutenant General Omar N, Bradley, Commander of the 12th US, Army Group watches as General Sir Bernard L, Montgomery, Commander of Allied Ground Forces in France romps with General Bradley's pet puppies at US, field headquarters in France (Summer 1944).





I have a somewhat connection with the two pups in the photo. My grandfather was Bradley's personal driver just prior and throughout the war. Here's an excerpt I clipped from an article I salvaged of an interview a local paper done in 1971:





I covered up his name in this image and left his nickname as we and Bradley referred to him.


Here is the picture of the two pups in our collection that refers to the above photo:





and on the back of the photo is the following description:

The old Pontic (Northern Turkey) version is much, much worse.

They'd encase you in in wood leaving your arms, head, and legs exposed.

They would coat your limbs in honey and they would feed you and give you lots of milk everyday to ensure you had lots of diarrhea. This was designed to ensure the bugs would make it into the coffin and slowly make their way into you.

The idea was you wouldn't starve. You'd just go crazy and have your guts eaten out. The only person this is known to happen to lived like that for 14 days.

I don't know anything about the bytes part of computers. My phone is suppose to be 16GB or 16000 MB according to google.
What the hell can you do with 10MBs?



Back then? A lot. shite I can remember my dad getting a 10GB hard drive and we thought, man we'll never fill that up. Then Napster happened.

What freaks me out everytime is the age of soldiers in photos. I mean those are just kids. Could you imagine the baws and you being in that situation? I feel so unappreciative.


Junior enlisted late teens and very early twenties. NCO's and junior officers six months to a year older if that. Company commanders in their mid twenties. Majors and lieutenant colonels in their late twenties, especially in the Air Corps. IIRC a few generals were in their early thirties.

And yet look at MLB players between the wars, and they all look 40 years old.

That's Ellen O'Neal.. I met her when I was in 7th grade at a skateboard competition at the dome.. I took fourth place..

She was the prototypical California skateboard girl back in the 70's... I instantly fell in love...
