Thank you! Any figures for other Fronts?
O mighty gurus of WWIIF, who know so much more than me, does anyone have some figures for average armor engagement distances for Desert, France...
Ok. Who does all the logistics stuff? What unit takes what road when, what gas they'll need and where it will be, etc?
Hey guys, forgive my ignorance (Clueless_newbie ignorant question™) but what did generals like Manstein, Rommel, Patton, etc. actually do? What...
I have little sympathy for the Wehrmacht and its allies. The German national state committed crimes universally agreed to be the most horrendous...
OK, some more of my trademark@ clueless newbie questions. For instance, when a German Field Marshal received his directive from OKH, what work...
The scene in the film where Patton's up there at his command post, watching the approach of the "German" tanks and infantry. And he says something...
The scene when Patton takes Bradley to the old Carthaginian battlefield, and talks about having fought there 2500 years before. Sends chills up...

"More than 100 U.S. soldiers died in the camp or on a forced death march. Before they were sent back to the United States, survivors signed a...
Yes, you're right, but was this in Manstein's memoirs? It sounds a lot like Manstein was covering his own @ss in his postwar "recollections." Do...
When Did The Germans Realize They Were Defeated? There was a book we were to read when I was back in graduate school that claimed the Nazi...
I'd definitely second Omer Bartov's work. Hitler's Willing Executers however is useless as historical scholarship. It is brilliantly refuted by...
Huh? Hello? Did somebody say something? How does this thing work? I never understand what the hecks goin' on around here...:confused:
Sorry, guys, I had it wrong - it was actually a request to Churchill. Received the below reply from the Axis History Forum (d*mn, those guys...
LOL!
Ah, too bad. I had hoped for something a little more interesting.:( I suppose I can hit the library and see what the other sources are like....
