That's one of maybe a dozen people, then. Why not just tell us his name? Probably because he was a reletive of Joe Kennedy; or maybe just a drinking buddy. But I'll let you in on a secret, the Brits had thousands of cannons after Dunkirk, available for Nazi photo recon, made of wood logs, that's all the Brits had was bluff, but I think it was good in any case, the croats figured it was real. Croats? Whiskey tango foxtrot, interrogative? Croats make some pretty good pastries. My grandmother lived in a neighborhood with a Croation church. Food at the pot lucks was pretty good. Don't know what that has to do with defending against Operation Sealiion, though. :-) We certainly had a big deception plan going in Kent... in 1944 to create FUSAG and keep the Germans waiting in the Pas de Calais. As far as artillery went, *immediately* after Dunkirk - on 8 June - we had about 400 tanks, 420 field guns and 163 medium and heavy guns *immediately* available for use. We had fifteen infantry and one armoured division in being. Through June, the Navy brought back to the UK about another 200,000 troops, and some of their artillery and vehicles. (Common myth - Dunkirk was by no means the end of the fighting in France) The Brits, had a few rifles left after Dunkirk, 2 or 3. About 70,000 after the Army's needs had been met. Paint a few hundred barges black and gliders too, move out at 10 or 11 pm, and by 5 am the king is being raped in the ass by Nazi's. Move out at 10pm in your three-knot barges, and by 5am you're not even half-way across the Channel. You have, however, met and felt the fire of the Auxiliary Patrol, and by this point you're seeing destroyers by the dozen... and none of them German. I think you need to re-examine the credentials of your Old Boy. He wasn't related to Baron Castleshortt VC, was he? The Germans had no idea what they needed to do to successfully invade England. It was certainly much more than an opposed "river crossing." The landing beaches would have been clearly identified, ranged (by all those guns they didn't have), and the roads blocked by all those troops and tanks that they didn't have. What we would have likely seen would have been the first invasion of Wake, but on a grand scale. The IJN, with all the real experience they had in PHIBOPS, screwed up pretty bad by grossly underestimating their enemy. The German underestimation was at least that bad. |

Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired As some one once stated: America has no permanent Friends, only permanent enemies. I think that pretty much fits any country. I do however believe that America has to reconsider and reassess whom we do business with in this day and age, based on our present day needs. The past is nothing more then an example by which to learn and guide our now and future decisions. We cannot redo the past, but we sure can be more careful in our future actions. The economic mess we are in doesn't seem to have sunk in to the pack of fools in Washington. |

By some miracle this attache's report gets to Hitler who sees these wonder craft as the answer to an invasion of England. He has 10,000 built in Norway or Poland and when the time comes for See Lowe they have all been burned during the respective invasions of Norway and Poland. Wait.... there's more! Owing to a short but heated argument between Goering and his physician over the diameter of needles ("get the expensive thin ones you Dummkopf!"), the doctor's company nepotistically assigned by the fascist bureaucracy to make special hinges for the doors of these fantastic landing craft is punished and forced to go into the needle business for 6 months. Hence of 10000 landing craft only a few hundred have doors attached, the rest have the doors welded or rivetted shut and the Stormtroopers told to put more oompf into their Drang when they try to get out. |

"Alexander" wrote in message ... A determined Germany would have eaten England alive, but for massive war materials and massive military direct aid. Well, assuming they could get there, which they couldn't... Are you really daft enough to believe that would always be? That is a very short Channel. Hitler actually admired England and did make an effort to make them an ally. But the UK (Not England) reckoned he wasn't to be trusted. Nobody called it the UK in those days. Wise people... Churchill double crossed him when he usurped meeting with Rudolph Hess. Hess was off the hook as far as America and Russia were concerned. The English made damned sure that he could never be interviewed and remained locked up in Spandau until the Arthritic ally crippled weak old man jumped up 12 feet tied a belt to a rafter and hung himself while under intense English Guard. The fact that he was never allowed pencil and paper should tell even a Jew moron like you something. He was guilty of no war crime. Dealing with Churchills England was a nasty joke. He even lied to America. I don't suppose you've any proof at all for that remarkable statement. England and Israel are 2 countries to never ever trust. But, but, but, aren't they the same country run by the same people? Are they now? Do you have something tangible to back your premise? |

Now that is funny. There is more military of that time in California then anywhere else in the world. I suspect the combined Red Army and Wehrmacht forces in Russia were rather more numerous than the US forces in California. True, but with a very very long supply line. Do keep in mind Russia of that day was in no mood to attack America. Russia had other fish to fry. America was 120 million, Germany united 80 million, Russia 170 million. France required an occupation force as did Poland Yugoslavia and a number of other small countries. Finland was not exactly playing dead either. Russia also had internal strife. That is what is called "Pinned chess pieces" in another game. I think whoever was telling you this, was pulling your leg so hard it's still out of its socket, and they're still telling the story of "some clueless guy called Tucker" who didn't just swallow the hook but took the line, and the sinker, and tried to eat the rod as well. A determined Germany would have eaten England alive, but for massive war materials and massive military direct aid. Hitler actually admired England and did make an effort to make them an ally. Churchill double crossed him when he usurped meeting with Rudolph Hess. Well now given that Hitler denounced Hess on German radio BEFORE Hess had chance to meet anyone this seems an odd conclusion. You have your dates wrong. Hitler denounced Hess after the betrayal by Churchill. There is no way Hess would have traveled to Scotland without an invitation by Churchill and the express wishes of the Nazi party. According to your version.. Hitler was not even aware of Hess's trip, until he was kidnapped. But then again, the limeys were not very good at countering German intelligence. Admiral Canaris regularly made fools of them. That was a double cross much more heinous as Hitlers double cross of Stalin. England and Israel are 2 countries to never ever trust. Churchill never wavered in his opposition to the Nazis, change your medication there's a good chap. Churchill was a Political schill. His ****ups during WWI got him the eventual sack. But you royalty loving buttocks reinstated him for WWII. Sadly him and Mounty were the best you people could front. The only leadership worse was the French. Actually you limeys were the prime ignitors of that war. You just kept prodding Hitler with the Polish corridor and we all paid the price. Of course the Jewish death grip on the German economy created their own nemeses in the form of the Nazi party and Adolph Hitler&troupe. Keith |

Very few War Historians believe that the English Lion would not succumb in the event Germany had turned to England rather then Russia. How do they get there to inflict this defeat? And even if they do get to England how does the German Army resupply? The Royal Navy would find sinking unarmed merchant ships and barges in the Channel a turkey shoot. Unlike land battles ordinary trunks on ordinary roads/railways cannot be used. Andrew Swallow That and the best Nazi plans never had very many men in England at D+1 or the ability to immediately replenish ammunition expenditures. Men with empty magazines tend to be unable to fire their weapons. On the other hand the British had lots of ammunition and the advantage of mobility. The RAF and Luftwaffe probably wouldn't have much effect in the immediate area since they'd be a tad busy discussing things at altitude. Had the Nazis been able to hold a piece of property for any length of time they would have gone hungry, short of munitions and no way to retreat.

I request a polite response, as I gave. Ken You mean all those B17's, B24's, B25's, B26's etc were all Churchill's? Don't forget the B29's. I have a few magazine clips showing thousands of Aircraft at a time flying over Germany. And with US Markings. Some how I do believe it was a Joint operation. I do wonder where all that avgas came from? |

After the few survivors wade ashore from the burning and sinking barges I'd imagine surrender would seem a good option. The Germans that the limeys did capture usually escaped into the German underground railroad and went home. Only those in maximum security were not so lucky. Keith |
