  1. There is a microcosim of Hitler's attitude to the British. The Occupation of the Channel Island's. Initially at least the German's were magnanimous in vivtory , the population, was allowed prayers for the health of the Royal Family in Church, troops were told to conduct themselves with decorum, personal property was to be respected. However the velvet was very thin. Any percived slight or reisestance was towards the German's was treated with extreme measures.

  3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAUdrKG31zE The STEN gun was and is a perfectly viable weapon. It is no worse tha nay of the designs used at the time. The main diference is the requirment that the gun be concelable leading to a straight line layout with no pistol grip means that as the weapon is blowback, if not held firmly the whole gun recoils not just the bolt. Therefore the bolt does not move back enough to eject and chamber a new round.
