    I am not sure what the drama is about d day. A slower breakout means ships in the channel can rain hell on the enemy even as the southern invasion waltzes to Berlin. Hedgerows become defense for allies as Germans get pounded to dust by battleships, freeing up airplanes for other uses. All because Americans wanted to see Paris liberated a month sooner. Also could have guaranteed Paris would not be burned by teasing Hitler with conditional surrender by allowing Germans to leave Paris freely as a show of “good faith”. Would need to keep Stalin in The loop though. Then back stab with return to unconditional surrender terms after Paris is occupied by allies.

    Let's not get too carried away with they hype. That one ship wasn't going to tip the balance of sea power. By that time Japan was on a slow and steady retreat. That said, it was still a terrific shot by Archerfish.

    Really not sure why we bothered. Lost our wealth. Lost our future. Submitted to a UN. Submitted to an EU run by who we "defeated". Lost our soul. Lost to a new world order determined to destroy the nation state. Probably history will say because of the Jews it was worth it and I would agree although at the time we did not know much about the horrors and our fight was more about foolishly somehow thinking our empire was to be saved and the USA would, as the new emerging power, let us keep it. Still think we would be better off politically, industrially and economically to have done a deal in 1940. I know people may see this comment as absurd, but just look at the mess of the world ever since. Basically the world war of 1914-1945 was a mistake for us to enter back in 1914. We have paid for it ever since...

    @@AchseBerlinTokio Yes I have watched the video, I have also watched many documentaries and I have read many books about Oradour-sur-Glane. Oradour-sur-Glane had nothing to do with any resistance activities. When the massacre of Oradour-sur-Glane happened, the Maquis leader Guingoin was about to start negotiations with the Germans (other Germans) to exchange Kämpfe against partisans held prisoners by the Germans. Then he heard about what had happened in Oradour-sur-Glane, that's when Kämpfe was killed. His body was burnt later.
