  3. JRR WROTE Lord of The Rings during WWII, or at least large segments of it, and was sending sections of it to his son who was serving in the army. It was outlined before but the war must have affected his writing. The flow is in the other direction. (And yes. I'm one of those geeks who read the books over a dozen times. Why do you ask?)

  10. And there were Polish Commando and Airborne units. The Airborne units played a role in Monty's disaster , er I mean, His Operation Market Garden.

  11. Don't get me started, well guess I already am, on Monty. For a long time my impression was he was a capable officer who, along with his staff, was far over his depth leading the Common Wealth forces in the invasion of Europe. Further study has shown he often held capable people in his command in contempt for reasons that distance and time make seem as mere class difference. He blamed everyone he could for the failure of HIS Market Garden, including Eisenhower. (and this is me being mild on the subject)

  12. Four Piper's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_piper The unmentioned thing is the US took over the defense of some Caribbean islands that Briton needed, freeing critical resources.
