In response to chocapic: You say its all speculation. So how would you have handled it? Invade. Then halfway through the invasion you say the...
Sorry for not responding to this thread in a while. I was watching/participating in others and this one didn't get a whole lot of attention. So I...
Thanks for the imput. Thats what I thought too. It certainly wouldn't have a major impact on the war. Just sort of slow progress down a little...

Well first off we knew about defensive structures and tunnels to some extent. We flew recon missions over the island and took pics as in all...
Directed to chocapic: So what is your solution to the atomic bombs? I, as an American feel no guilt of my country, for the atomic bomb. It had...
cool. I watched a progam on that sub (in english :D ).
While yes the banzi charge was often a last resort attack. When they knew it was over, i.e., Attu, Tinian.(Although the Attu charge was very...
I don't think that japan had absolutely no chance of winning the war. At least until they attacked us. But even then they still had some chance....

No one is downplaying the Russian's contribution to the war. :confused: Russia lost around 20 million people. The exact number isn't even...
I don't know how they'd pull off capturing it. But I recently watched on the Military channel. And further read up on the subject of a planned...
I never doubted the Col. knowledge on the E. front. And I am well aware that for legal reasons the governement makes sure to put that whole...
I thought it would be neat to start a list/thread of songs (from any nation) that have to do with war, the military, or anything similar. From any...
Best bomber of WWII. What bomber do you think was the best? Personally I think it was the B-29. The most ground breaking, high tech,...

It was pretty darn well defended by the British it seems and I know we sent quite a few marines there too. It would've been one hell of a feat for...
Yes there'd be clouds, fog, weather problems in general. Same with night bombing. But on any given day those same conditions would effect night...
The documentary you watched must have been incorect. Because they lost more than 24,000 troops on the ground alone. :eek: Not to mention the...
