re: Did the French humiliate our POWs in WW2?

Charles Lamb, a Royal Navy Swordfish pilot, was a prisoner of war in a camp run by the Vichy French. They were extremely brutal and sadistic to the English prisoners. He wrote a book about it, "To War in a Stringbag."

My question is, why did it take six hours of searching to capture these perpetrators inside freaking Camp Pendleton?
Ever been to Pendleton? It's a huge base, bigger than Rhode Island. And the vast majority of it is hills and scrub.

We had a great meal at Local. For a less expensive alternative, Big Hole has excellent BBQ.

Here is a little known fact. After the war the commander of the hunter killer group, Captain Daniel Gallery, because a writer. He wrote a series of very funny "sea stories" detailing the hijinks of a CPO known as "Fatso." Some of the stories are collected in a book called "Now Hear This."

Deconstrued. Separate bites of cracker, meat and cheese, in whatever order floats your boat.
I had a convertible sports car for a couple of years. Loved it, thinking of buying another.
But talk to your insurance agent first, and see what owning it will do to your rates. Mine was very expensive to insure.

Thanks, guys. Appreciate the advice.
Pensacola recommendations?

Going to Pensacola (birthplace of naval aviation) for the squadron reunion. Any good places for dinner?
Thanks in advance.

With the population ageing, I would look at something in elder medical care. For example, physical therapy. They can't outsource that to India and it can't be done by AI. And, eventually, you can open your own shop.

Here are a couple:
Movie star Dina Merrill (Operation Petticoat, among others) was the daughter of stockbroker E.F. Hutton. Back then being an actress was considered low-class, so she took the stage name "Merrill" after her father's business rival, Charles Merrill (of Merrill Lynch).
Before becoming an actor Chuck Connors (Rifleman) played major league baseball, and also in the NBA. He used to have his sports buddies play cameo roles on the Rifleman. For example, pitcher Duke Snider was one of a gang of bad guys on horseback.

Not sure if it is underrated or not but I love this quote:
“You see, in this world, there’s two kinds of people, my friend: those with loaded guns, and those who dig.”

Whenever a recipe calls for green peppers I substitute anaheims or poblanos. Green peppers are boring.

I have no idea what Andrew Tate looks like. I am vaguely familiar with his name, but don't know much about him.
I try to be nice to people I meet, so I guess this could have been me.

The Future of Security Technology apparently involves being groped by a fat man.
Posted by Roscoe14 on 4/10/26 at 10:16 am
Flying out of Las Vegas this morning. Going through security, a bunch of passengers (including me) was bumped to go through a new system.
A sign said we would be experiencing "The Future of Security Technology."
They had new scanners, we got to leave the electronics in the bag and the shoes on. But when I went through the body scanner (a new type) the TSA guy, a very fat man, called me over to look at the image. There was a yellow circle over my groin area. He said he was going to have to pat me down, and asked if we could do it here. He then did a very through inspection of my nether regions. Then, finding nothing, he said I had to take off my shoes to be scanned.
Thinking on it, I really should have asked for someone female and better looking (a low bar) to do the pat down.

The Village in Boise is a great mall. And there is a Popeye's there that is pretty good (efficiently run, if you can believe it).
re: Onion Rings
Posted by Roscoe14 on 4/2/26 at 11:54 am to KemoSabe65
Paper thin is the way to go. Use a mandolin to slice the onions. Soak in milk for about 20 minutes. Dredge the rings in salted flour.
Add some extra flour to the pile of onion rings while waiting for the oil to come up to temperature to keep them from sticking.
Fry at 370 until golden brown, about four minutes.

Just replace the solenoid, you think, if tightening up the wiring doesn't work? I see I can get one on Amazon for 13 bucks.
