Re: Did Russia Win D-Day? Eric Margolis

Everyone who fought against Russia, Britain, US and France now seems to have been anti-Nazi, in the Resistance, or vacationing in South America at the time of the Second World War. I think he hit the nail on the head with this one, my...

I have a few books from Europa, and have found that only 'Forgotten Legions' was edited properly. I think they spend the majority of their money on research, which is simply outstanding, many of the topics they cover in their books are almost impossible to find in the English language. I don't know ...

Hello, Mr. Weale is active on this forum http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BFC_Reenactors/ I can tell you that all pictures that show the BFC armband have them reading "British Free Corps". So the odds are is that the armband is fake. However, I would still like to see pictures of it. Also wha...
