It’s interesting how many big dogs in WWII cut their teeth in WWI: Hitler, Georing Goering, and Rommel on their side, De Gaulle, Churchill, Patton, and Truman on ours. Zhukov also, he fought against the Germans in WWI in, of all places, Kharkiv, then got caught up in the civil war as a Red.

Little dogs, too.

E.g., Capt. Renault was with the Americans when they "stumbled" into Berlin in 1918 - then later joined the Free French garrison in Brazzaville.

Regards,

Who is profiting from this conflict? Think Russia could turn and stop China from taking Siberia? Think Zelensky can hold the Ukraine? Who’s getting weaker and where will it lead? It’s an honest question, just wish I could see the answers and stop it.

“Do you know me, soldier?”
“No, sir.”
“Then why are you admitting me to this station?”
“I saw it was a staff car, sir.”
“Goering could have been in it!”
