I think I understand your point, Urqh. I agree with you that both Corregidor and Singapore were doomed from the start but I would also consider...
Well, here's my two cents worth from someone who lives in area of high volcanic activity. We have earthquakes everyday and they're mostly not...
One thing this scenario overlooks, at least in my view, is that this indirectly strengthens the Soviet Union's hand in the long term. That's as...
I haven't been around for a while and I find this thread quite an interesting read. We've all been suckered at least once in our lives, in one...
I tried but I failed. Dad wanted to watch a Heston and the first thing that caught his eye was Battle of Midway. He got his way, of course. On...

Doesn't really matter if it's wood. It still has beautiful lines for an aircraft.
Thanks A-58. I'd like to do that but the net connection in my country is not as reliable as in yours. It really depends on the time on how fast...
