Stalingrad and Tunis was a time when friends of my dad brought the German and Italian prisoners back to the USA and gave me all sorts of medals and rings from the prisoners. But today, looking back, all I can think of, is the how the youth of Germany and Russia, were wasted away on the Stepps, just to support the whims of two Dictators. Leaving us with a war that changed the world forever. I’m sure History will repeat itself, we never learn.

Sorry to post so late. I am still catching up.

Did anyone else catch this one? This is almost exactly what McNair did.

General Campbell: “I think that of all the most heinous crimes the Ordnance Department could commit the worse would be to say, ‘Uh-huh, the M-4 tank is the best in the world,’ and then sit back and be satisfied.”
