I just finished reading an absolutely superb book called Bombing Hitler's Hometown. About the last large-formation bomber raid of WW2 on Linz, Austria.

Just days before the surrender. But Linz was a really dangerous place because the Germans kept concentrating their AAA in a tighter pocket.

The author researched the crews brilliantly... a lot of first person interviews over something like 20 years. One of the best-researched WW2 books I've read.

It's a really amazing read because it is so 'people-centric.'

And a lot of these guys were pretty much sure they had survived the ETO. Some might have gone to the Pacific.

What was the quote from John Kerry (weasel) in his Senate Testimony in the late '60's? "How do you ask someone to be the last man to die in a war?" It was from a weasel... but it was a poignent question. That these guys had to live.

The author was an Agency targeting analyst... now retired. And he has a gift for prose. The book is on Amazon and is utterly worthy if you are looking for a great read!

Cheers,

Oh crap... the news just reported that DOGE is now coming after all of us who didn't pay for our Columbia House CD's back in the 1990's.

We're all screwed!!!

Hah! I am in the clear. After Jesus found me, I called Columbia House and told them all the aliases I was robbing them under and then paid them back. Sleep is easier with a clean conscience.
 
Some serious buthurt going on

I found this on the TMC Forum...

I basically told him that even though he lives in a commie state, to get and LTC... I've had 4 people tell me that loved to see my car burn... One of them was serious, and ran away when I said "That's why I'm packing..."

It did crack me up that he had 666 thumbs up.
