  3. You mean the United Kingdom. When do YOU consider WW2 started?

  4. And inspite of what divisive lefty trolls on YT will tell you, there are still plenty of white British people who understand the commitment and loyalty shown by our gallant Indian friends. Best wishes from the UK.

  5. You do realise that the Cons, Liebour, and the lib demons are ALL fully bought and paid for by corporate globalism. They ALL take their orders from the WEF/UN/Globalists but "dress their windows" with petty differences to make it appear that we still "have a choice", when the reality is that we're now being pushed into a globalist dictatorship, dressed up as modern "western democracy".

  6. I was born in Liverpool on 25th Feb (1966) and MY father was a bus driver..... unfortunately I never accrued the countless millions of £££££s that George did. :face-purple-crying::face-purple-crying::face-purple-crying:

  8. Don't delude yourself, there was NEVER a chance of invasion. The RN, while indeed being stretched thin still held a VASTLY superior force in the "Home Fleet". The Kriegsmarine, now missing all of its capital ships, and fielding just a couple of light cruisers, 10 destroyers and a small number of torpedo boats, would have been facing an array of sixty-seven destroyers, over a hundred and sixty smaller corvettes and minesweepers, six cruisers, and five capital ships. The Luftwaffe having proved itself poorly suited in 1940 for the task of anti shipping missions would not have prevented the "Channel Defence Force" from decimating German troop and supply convoys in the channel, in the event of an invasion attempt.

  12. Bismarck's main armour belt was made of face hardened steel called "New type Krupp Cemented" which was no better than British "cemented" armour which was made using the same industrial processes, though post war ballistic testing showed it better than US face hardened "Class A" armour. (excuse me while I don my protective body armour.... INCOMING !!!)

  13. In what way was Bismarck "more high tech" that her European counterparts? Maybe the US has a pacifo-centric perspective and fails to consider the war effort of its allies in the European theatre which shaped the war. P.S at the time of the Bismarck episode Yamato was sitting in a fitting out basin in Kure shipyards in japan minus a sizeable proportion of her combat systems. If you're going to ignore chronology then study the USS Gerald B Ford aircraft carrier instead.

  15. Please provide us with details of the details of the luftwaffe air assaults on Canberra, Ottawa, Delhi and Wellington? Or how the Wehrmacht stood poised to launch its invasion of the Indian sub continent? Or how the Kriegsmarine attempted to strangle "the British Empire" out of the war by enforcing a u-boat blockade of Australia and New Zealand? Oh news just coming in...... NONE OF THOSE THINGS HAPPENED because the ONLY nation being subjected to ALL those threats by the nazis between July 1940 and April 1941 was GREAT BRITAIN ALONE. No need to thank me for unburdening you of your complete cluelessness.

  16. Well in "Operation Berlin" 4 months earlier Lütjens had successfully taken Scharnhorst and Gneisenau through the Denmark Strait and into the north Atlantic for a commerce raiding operation that lasted for 2 months, sinking or capturing 22 merchant ships, whilst evading the RN, finally dropping anchor in Brest on the Brittany coast.

  18. In a memorandum dated 12th July 1940 Alfred Jodl, who was Chief of staff of OKW (German armed forces high command), set out to the high commands of the 3 armed forces (Army / Navy / Air force) the outline plan that OKW wanted them to each flesh out with their own subordinate planning for their own respective roles. In the preamble of this memorandum he described the scope of the proposed operation with the phrase "a river crossing on a broad front". This infuriated the OKM (German Naval High command) as river crossings don't usually entail a distance of travel of 100 miles across stormy, unpredictable waters, "River Crossings" also tend not to have to deal with large fleets of powerful warships sailing into their midst.

  19. I think they may have meant "eight tons of steel leaving her gun barrels", which although still slightly overblown is a dramatic way of describing a full main battery broadside.

  20. 303 Squadron was NOT the "highest Scoring squadron" but the THIRD highest scoring, and the highest scoring Polish ace in the battle Flt Lt Witold Urbanowicz was 6 kills behind the highest scoring ace in the battle, the English pilot Fl Lt Eric Lock.

  21. Its not so much that the French tanks were "better" than the German ones (and yes some of the French tanks WERE far better armed and armoured than their German counterparts) it was the manner in which they were used that was the decisive element. The French generally employed the elements of their armoured units dispersed amongst the infantry divisions as sub units supporting infantry actions, the Germans used their tanks as concentrated units that were organised from the outset to keep the sub units of the panzer divisions in close support to each other, and had attached mobile infantry elements to support the tanks, rather than the other way around, the whole supply infrastructure for the panzer units was designed to allow deep penetration of enemy territory where as the French supply network was geared towards slower infantry advances which prevented the French tanks from sustaining the pressure of their attack beyond a day or so.

  22. USSR was Germany's ally during the Battle of Britain, soft lad. The UK was up against +95% of Luftwaffe air power in summer 1940.

  24. Just to detail the commonwealth units in Britain. The FIRST Canadian infantry Division (the full strength division that you mention) stationed south of London around the Crawley area in West Sussex, the 2nd Canadian division at the time was a skeletal force whose poorly equipped subordinate units only started to arrive in Britain in late august 1940 and was in no condition for combat. Then there was the "2nd Australian Imperial Force" which though nominally comprised of 2 brigades (the 18th & 35th) actually only had the combined strength of a single 8000 man Brigade stationed outside Basingstoke, and finally the NZ 2nd division which was infact an understregth 6000 man Brigade (29th NZ independent Brigade) which was th only existing unit at the time of the "2nd New Zealand Expeditionary force" its single understrength brigade was bolstered by the addition of the BRITISH 1st motor machine gun brigade and was stationed near to Maidstone in Kent. By the time of the expected invasion in Sept 1940 the British army was fielding 2 British Armoured divisions 2 British Armoured tank brigades 15 British infantry divisions (full strength) 7 British infantry divisions (under strength). 7 British infantry Brigades 2 British motor machine gun Brigades 1 Canadian infantry division (full strength) (plus some small under equipped subordinate units of a 2nd division) 2 Australian infantry brigades (BOTH under strength) 1 NZ infantry division (actually an understrength infantry Brigade but with an attached British motor machine gun brigade)

  25. Speaking "foreign" isn't a requirement for us, when you speak one of the world's leading languages.

  26. Such ignorance still exists today, with the US STILL referring to the United Kindom as "England" for example.

  27.  DrWeird-op1kg  England is a country as are Scotland and Wales.... add all three of them together and it becomes "Great Britain"... then add in Northern Ireland and it becomes the "United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland" (or the UK for short).

  28. Well one Canadian division out of 15 British army divisions defending the south East of England in Sept 1940.

  30.  @SCVM__  I have a better than average perception of particularly 20th century military history, but I'm also quite good at spotting blustering uninformed national pride.

  31.  @SCVM__  Please tell me exactly where I said the battles you mentioned were "nothing"? I would name the individual battles where over the last two millenia non-Canadians have fought and died but I would runout of space. Amongst my many family members who fought in both World Wars I had one British cousin who was killed driving a Matilda tank in North Africa as part of the 7th RTR fighting the Italian Maletti tank Regt at "Camp Nabeiwa" during "Operation Compass" in Dec 1940, but then again I also had another cousin from Maple Creek Saskatchewan, Canada, who was killed driving a sherman tank of the Canadian 28th (British Columbia) armoured regiment during Operation "Totalise" on 9th August 1944 near the village of Estrees-le-Campagne, Normandy, France..... but inspite of being a proud Englishman I don't feel the desire to put their or anyone else's efforts or ultimate sacrifice forward to minimise or diminish the sacrifices of citizens of other nations.

  33. The globalists are MORE than eager to destroy the UK because we told the European branch of their ongoing world hegemony to "f*ck off" in 2016.

  36. Much like an incident near to where I used to live in Liverpool UK, where a luftwaffe bomb hit the "Ernest Brown Junior instructional college" on Durning road, which at the time had over 300 people sheltering in its basement. The school collapsed into the basement crushing many to death, unfortunately many of those that survived that event were subsequently scalded to death when the boilers that powered the school's heating system, burst. 166 men women and children were killed in that episode, more than 20 of the victims could not be identified.

  40. At the time of the "Bismarck chase" there were SEVEN British convoys transitting the Atlantic. Amongst the civilian sailors crewing the ships of those convoys were a number of my own family. Over 30,000 merchant sailors were killed during WW2 inspite of not being members of ANY military service.

  45. @Jeremy-y1t Typhus doesn't reduce people to skeletal corpses Mark... that is achieved with being slaved to death anwhilst simultaneously being subjected to organised starvation, all the time while the camp staff and people of the towns that surrounded the camps were of normal weight and health.

  46. @Jeremy-y1t "No colonies" apart, that is, from... Czechoslovakia.... Poland.... Denmark..... Norway.... Holland.... Belgium.... Luxembourg.... France.... Yugoslavia.... Greece.... Lithuania... Latvia.... Estonia.... Byelorussia... Ukraine....and pieces of European Russia that is.

  47. @Jeremy-y1t PS Italy was also in East Africa if you actually knew some reality.

  48. @Jeremy-y1t "None of those were colonies" Why? Because you don't like inconvenient facts to spoil your delusional BS?

  49. @Jeremy-y1t "Clive Dunn" Hahahahaha..... At least you've got a BIT of a sense of humour in your delusion. I refer you to page 142 of "Drake's Progress", the autobiography of the Britsh comedian Charlie Drake, who conducts a cutting analysis of Germany's part in the starting of WW2.

  50. @Jeremy-y1t As I've told you many times Mark, my uncle was a first hand witness of a German concentration camp and directly communicated to me that the camp staff fled in fear of retribution for what they had overseen, but that many were apprehended, and were NOT skeletal wretches, as neither were the local civilians who were then made to come and view what had happened in their area, and then had to clear up the mountains of skeletal corpses so they wouldn't forget what they had allowed to happen in their country.
