Afternoon.
:D
Considering China's military posturing, it certainly is a possibility. They way they've interacted with the major players in that region, as well as...
Hey all. I just finished watching this rather somber and poignant documentary on the war in Vietnam. I thought I'd pass it along in the event...
Yes, I was. And the Brazilian contribution with the war effort was interesting. The "smoking cobras" saw quite a bit of action in the Italian...
I thought I'd pass along this interesting video. It covers the, arguably, first fielded submachine gun: the Italian M1915 Villar Perosa made by...
And an interesting follow up video is another prototype. This one actually is a copy, of sorts, of the Soviet SVT-38/40. It is, however, chambered...
Access of raw materials to Germany is a complicated and important factor in the war. On paper, they controlled huge amounts of resources in occupied...
Thank you for the video; I've got this one bookmarked. And, indeed, they were going to throw everything at the Allied forces in one last ditch...
You may be referring to Order No. 227 which was "Ни шагу назад! (Not one step back!)" that was issued in July of 1942. The Battle of Stalingrad...
The following is a music video by the German group Rotersand. The genre they work in, in their own words, is "Industrial pop". Others have dubbed...

With respect to the war in Europe, that is likely the biggest question of them all. Many historians have bandied about different scenarios of a...
Good points. And it is an interesting possibility. Granted, Allied forces developed strong countermeasures against Kamikaze attack in the closing...
This is too cool not to share. The last surviving Czech pilot who flew with the RAF is General Emil Bocek, aged 93. He wished to fly a Spitfire one...
One of my favorite wartime books is Love and War in the Apennines by Eric Newby. For those that haven't read it, the author was captured and...
Agreed, for close air support, the A-10 comes out ahead, imho. The "do all" of the F-35 is left wanting in some roles, like this one. Alas, the...
There is a a variety of options depending on the religion of the individual. Various Christian, Jewish, and other religions (e.g., Mormon, Hindu,...
I am interested in acquiring various, original, Spanish War Civil War medals. Either side, of course, and the more obscure ones are, naturally, of...
Separate names with a comma.
