For such a miniscule island country with no local resources, the British did some astounding things.

My half Irish/half French Canadian ancestry has conflicts with that, but I do have immense respect for them. They kicked ass in their day with precious little to back them up.

The Brits had balls. Too bad all the good ones were killed at the Somme. And the real men in France died at Verdun, same for the Germans at Stalingrad.
