It would be really neat to find one of those Christmas toys! Can’t decide whether I’d prefer Chamberlain bopping Hitler, or Hitler and Goering tilting at the windmill! :)

Thanks much for your work, Homer! Learning this way is fascinating!

Are any of you watching WWII in HD? I have been watching it all week and it seems to be really. I am very interested in your opinions.

Thanks
