I often see people complaining that they google and can't find stuff.
Yahoo has always been a reliable search engine for military/history stuff.
No one ever seems to gripe about yahoo the same way.

COPERNIC )www.copernic.com) makes a great serch agent... I use the
professional (padi) version, but the freeware version is also quite good and
out does Google, Yahoo and all the rest....

Never had much problem with google. I can usually find what I am looking
for if I narrow the search inside each set of results.

When dealing with propaganda terminology one sometimes always speaks in
variable absolutes. This is not to be mistaken for an unbiased slant.

Have you tried Yoogee? (hopefully not), the damned thing puts
what amounts to a worm on your computer. Whenever your browser
fails to connect, instead of announcing 'Unable to find....' (or
whatever) your machine now goes out, gets and displays
"InternetOptimizer" (along with a little announcement "unable to
find xxx". It's a bitch to remove (for me at least), haven't
succeeded yet anyway.
