You can certainly tell how appropriate the title of the war is (world war) when you see the Scandinavian countries being involved, not to mention...
The American war effort during WWII was really great. It was a time when people came together for a just cause, trying to help each other out. I'm...
That is some impressive record. He is such a classy English gentleman that it's actually not surprising at all to hear about his war story. :cheers:
I love Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. He was a good actor, and he starred in many action/war movies as well. Thank you sir, for your valuable service to...
I always meant to watch this because everyone kept telling me what a great film it is, but I never got around to it. It's pretty long too so I'm...
Wow, when I looked at the title of this thread I thought, Roald Dahl, the WRITER? No way! Well, thank you very much for starting this, because I...
I did! :lol: Oh, I didn't read the synopsis, just the stuff that was on that page. So it does take place during the 20th century. Just looking at...
Those are very cool pictures, and the video was great to watch! I must admit, as someone who studies films or, in other words, very...

This is probably the first WWII related book that I read. Isn't it remarkable how this one young woman kept her journals that were never meant to...
Studying France during the war is really like studying psychology. A case like this is probably unheard of in history, and it's hard to see what...
