They come over here at barely 2000 meters. What do they think they are doing? They all went down under the guns of Jasta 11 . And the RFC did its job. If pictures were not obtained new aircraft went out until they were. Artillery aircraft missing? Most of the celebrated aces on both sides did not survive the war. Aerial Photo of the Front.

The October 14, 1943 air raid on Schweinfurt is an American story, and should be remembered as an example of how Americans perform when they must. The men of the Eighth Air Force were children of the depression called on to fight a Second World War. They did so without complaint or sense that they had done anything special, and did not talk of it afterwards. I think that is enough. Ira C Eaker - Commander Eighth Air Force.

Bloody April - A Thought
Not as Old as it Seems -. Chivalry, the Red Baron, wood and canvas, sounds quaint doesn't it? It is all but forgotten. World War One consumed a generation of Europeans and not a few Americans. Should we forget this? To forget, you bloody little fool, to forget. Do you think there's no limit to what a man can bear? Proudly powered by Weebly.

Battle of the Frontiers - A Thought
Battle of the Frontiers. John Willis Palmer Interview. Before the lights went out Europe was envied and emulated throughout the world. Technology, the sciences, financial and military might, trade and names like Freud, Krupp, Pasteur, Garibaldi and others who lead in their fields or by example. The Battle of the Frontiers was a loss of innocence. After enthusiastic, patriotic declarations of war, reservist were called to the colors and shortly afterwards the battle began. Is there something wrong with us?

HMS King George V. HMS Prince of Wales. A Couple of Tars. We can understand these events intellectually, but never emotionally. Imagine the last minutes of the Hood; the realization that death is coming to claim you. How about the Swordfish pilots? The sailors on the Bismarck after the rudders were stuck. Dying under the guns of Rodney and King George V or then drowning in the sinking ship? Can we have any idea of the pressure he was under? Proudly powered by Weebly.
