Re: Can anyone identify this group...
I am curious...any comments? From the size and edging that I can see in the repro, it's a typical posed 'end of course' type photo of the era. More than probably, the prisoner/deceased from whom the photo was appropriated is in the photo. Is there anything handwritten on the reverse? Often the owne...

Freiritter may not think much of the Fw-190 as a ground-attack machine (possibly comparing it to Allied fighter-bombers), but as for me, given a choice between a Ju-87 Stuka and a Focke-Wulf 190, I'll gladly take the Fw, with its greater ability to take care of itself if it were intercepted, compar...

Hi Greenhorn Except for the fact that the crews were in such an adrenalin charged state for the mission and keeping such a high tenor of lookout, ordinarily they wouldn't have seen them coming at that rate of closure, clean screens or otherwise. Most would have only been alerted to the fact literall...

Re: You are a now a Panzer Kommander, pick your Panzer!
What kind of panzer would you like to drive. None. I'd rather be its commander. Just consider me an in control of my own destiny insofar much as that can be arranged control freak. But if pushed at gunpoint, any one as long as it's at the rear of a large, large formation, out of enemy direct fire r...

Greenhorn Minimal self-exposure (time, speed and size) whilst taking advantage of a distinct weak point in the case of the B17F formations. The trade-off was that the shot was really a snap-shot at centre of mass due to the rate of closure. Given all that aviation fuel just waiting be set alight (in...
