Favourite T.O

Choose your favourite theatre of war-I don;t mean just E.T.O or P.T.O, you will see sectors that I have picked. Please choose your favourite one.

 

Of these I prefer DAK.

 

For me it would definitely be some part of the Pacific War.

Sorry theres two....One more a period, Invasion of France up to Dunkirk 1940

And Burma mostly retreat from.

 

Errr, WTF? No eastern front?

 

My fav. is Europe - late western, but sure as hell would like to learn alot more about the Pacific campaign, especially CBI and the marianas.

 

Doc whats the accronym CBI relate to?

 

China-Burma-India.

 

I chose Late European but prefer late Eastern front. Here you had vast armies pitted against each other with weapons of all kinds. Nothing like it since.

 

Got quite a lot of stuff on the Burma India areas in ww2, but not China.

If you need any specific things on those 2 I can probably find something..Mostly from my brother, he got an interest while he was working in Hong Kong, toured around the far east taking pics and stuff of battle fields or more likely battle areas.

On India my own main interest there is the ending of the RAJ, when I did speak to my Grandfather a lot, he used to tell us lots of stories of that period and the break up after the war..Lots of not so nice stories, but not relating to ww2.

 

For me, definitely Normandy/Arnhem/Ardennes.
A bonus - they're the easiest battlefields for me to visit....

 

I am with Martin, European late...

 

Had to vote for Late europe especially the campaign in NW Europe. Another fav, though not mentioned, is Burma. All relating to the fighting and experience of the british soldier.
