Thank you again for these posts. I read them every day and am consistantly amazed at how much our attitudes have changed and how badly political correctness and social engineering has affected our military.

Again, thank you.

March 5, 1942:

"In the wake of the February 24 Struma sinking, the British War Cabinet reaffirms its decision not to allow "illegal" Jewish refugees admission to Palestine."

"The Belzec extermination camp was the site of 600,000 deaths.
Most of the victims were Jews from southern Poland, but the Nazis also deported Jews from Germany, Austria, Bohemia, and Moravia to the killing center."
