Infact I'd prob leave boyf at home and take the dog and a book to pub Quote Link to post Share on other sites

swede40 92 Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Adolf Hitler just to ask him why and if he could do it again would he do it differently was going to put the same thing.......as evil as the man was he came from a no body to nearly ruling most of the world.... ..so eather Adolfo hitler ...or Miyamoto Musashi .....or John WayneRuling most of the world ... Really ??? ..........Sorry SIR socks .......ruling 25 country's and having allies in other country's...and if he wasn't stoped how long do you recon it would of been befor he conquered less equipped country's ...country's that didn't have the the finances/ men / weapons to stand up to him/ his allies ....like I say that's a lot to accomplish by a man who was a nobody (a 18 year old homeless man) ......however I'm not going to get it a debate about what he ruled and didn't rule as I'm sure your SAS millataryexperience / knowledge I'll be out of my depth lol Fukc me calm down treacle ... Nothing to do with my military background and all to do with history ... Hitler never conquered any country with a strong military standing and when he tried he failed ie Russia and the uk ... And off the top of my head I don't think it was 25 countries either .......... I have no love of hitler or what the nazi's did but your statment is bollox the germans were fighting on 2 fronts against russia in the east and britain and america and allies in the west as well as in africa and other parts of europe the weather and russias numbers were his mistake in the east not there supeirior fighting skills and tactics if hitler and the german army had gone for a 1 on 1 with anybody in the world at that time i fully belive they would of beat them the british army included there equipment and troops were far better than the rest of the worlds if hitler or a few others in the nazi party been such evil sick b*****ds they would of been remembered as military geniuses Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ideation 8,216 Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 I've been thinking on this, and genuinely, right now it'd be my grandfather on my dads side. A lot has happened in the three years since he'd passed away, and i'd love to show him the dogs now, and some of the things i'm doing and pick his brains. He'd be in his element with some of it. And he told the most fascinating stories i've ever listened to, having spent the 1930's-50's living and hunting in India, Nepal etc. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scothunter 12,609 Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 His mistake was Stalingrad and not listening to his generals. They were 20 mile from Moscow, and Stalin was ready to flee the city. However bad weather, bad decisions. Yes you can't fight a war of that magnitude on 2 fronts. Say one thing some of the biggest and brutal battles In history were fought by the Germans and Russians. Can't say I'm surprised the Germans were the most advanced and high trained soldiers of the time. And technically it was 17 countries but as I said the Italians well they were really puppets lol so what they held made up 25 . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was the germans most successfull tactic They marched across euroupe. At a pace never seen in modern warfare. Till the hit they russians and british. He could not use the tactic across the channel. He could not beat the Russian winter. He had know were to go but dig in Like all mass armies they run out of fuel or food The germans on the russian front were ill equipped and supplied bomber harris destroyed armaments and weakened the german people. They were doomed. Like ive said small minded little c**t with a big ego and a mouth to match surrounded by a gang of lunatics Murder rape and pilaged there way across europe ruling by fear.
