"My source or the German destroyer sinking was "The Rise and Fall of the third Riech" - I read it in another book also but I don't remember the name of the vessel. The incident was not publicised by either side. I believe the first public mention of it was in Shires book. Anyway there were...

We were involved in China prior to the "Flying Tigers". The "Tigers" were not all US flyers, as in they were NOT in the US military. My Dad was attached to that group, after they were "absorbed" into the Army after the start of the war. We did intern many Japanese/Americans after the start of...

That will always happen, just as some are not convicted for similar reasons. The idea that we will NEVER convict an innocent person or NEVER not convict one is silly. While we SHOULD strive for a 100% record on both counts it is never going to happen. We can only do our best. We still have to...

Most people realize what is going on. The problem is that often the news "leaks" out and rumors are allowed to fester. The other problem is that these "adjustments" to contracts are coming at a pretty good clip now. One can only get kicked in the butt so many times before one gets a little...

How very sad. He will be missed here for sure. He and his family will be in our prayers.

"One other little tidbit of history, we attacked Germany and Japan first in WW2. We were fighting the Japs in China in 1936, and we sunk a German destroyer in the North Atlantic in 1940. Not widely published." What was the name of that destroyer? As to US involvement in China, it was widely...

Is it "Neville Obama" or "Barack Chamberlain"?

I don't make the rules. I just deal with them, until they reach a point that I can no longer deal with them, then I will leave.

We always went to "Casa de fruta" when in that area. Link: Gourmet Chocolate Covered Dried Fruit, Pomegranate Wine, Mesquite Meal Much cleaner and quieter, expect for the peacocks, than most other places. The food in the diner is good too. We ALWAYS spend WAY too much on fresh fruits and nuts...

We all have the same choice to make. IF this fits our business plan, we accept it. IF not, we leave. That is business. Do I believe this is a smart long term move? Nope. Can I do anything about it? Nope. I do know one thing for sure, I have not been feeling much "love" of late and feel more and...

All companies are in business to make money. That includes all carriers, and all contractors. Carriers look out for their bottom line, we look out for ours. We should never assume that a carrier's business plan, and our business plan, are always going to work together. It is not personal, it is...

Good luck with that. It would take 500K, in JUST ground troops, to seal our borders. That does NOT count air crew or naval forces. Assuming that we WANT to seal our borders, which it would seem that we do not. The cartels have the power they have thanks to our government's "war on drugs" and...

There is a problem and there are multiple answers. The problem is that the answers are not liked. The fact is that, like it or not, it is the responsibility of each individual to protect what is rightfully his. Government has proven, though out history, it cannot, and often will not, protect...

That would not be hard. Any tough two year old could do that.

I heard that today. It would be funny if it were not so sad.

WHAT? Our criminal in chief can just change laws as he sees fit? NO say from the PEOPLE? Dictators suck.

Tell that to all those who are being killed by those who walk away. Having their homes invaded by them. Having their cars hijaked. FAR more innocent people are killed by crap people than there are innocent people jailed. Bottom line is, crime is very much out of control. The police cannot...

I would guess you would be wrong

That war would ruin Europe, and likely the US mainland. It is only being talked about because of our increasing weakness. Obama is STILL going on with wholesale cuts, cuts that improve the lot of a reexpanding Soviet Union. Of course, Obama is stressing over more important things, like his NCAA...
