How accurate do you need your figures to be PS? +/- 20% (ie 80% accurate) or like to the third decimal place? Just curious.....

I'd say I had a loose grip on about 7.9842% of ww2 History, maybe 16.423456% of the tank story, 80.552% of spare time spent obsessing about it for 75% of my life so far. Actual genuine understanding of what it was truly like still stands at 0.3%. Maybe.
But the sheer scale of the thing is it's most fascinating aspect for me.

Sorry P5. What a bunch of bas*ards eh? [img]graemlins/salute.gif[/img]

I'd reccomend a copy of the Oxford companion to ww2 for answers to questions like this... be prepared to get very confused as you discover at least 4 different possible figures. [img]graemlins/gi.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/gi.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/gi.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/gi.gif[/img]
