"People called Romanes they go the house?"I can still think in conjugations
I thought we already established that we're not interested in your Nazi stories.My German is the same way. 5 years in high school and college. The grammar stays with you but the vocabulary? Poof. If I got dumped on a street corner in Germany, I could probably muddle through and get it back quickly, but it’d take a bit.
Looking back, it’s silly they didn’t teach foreign languages in my school district until high school.
I am just upset you weren't referred to as CAPT(sel) for the article. The nerve...
Funny, I thought the same thing...I am just upset you weren't referred to as CAPT(sel) for the article. The nerve...
Exped does EW-ARP for basic phase (Whidbey and Fallon), then they usually do a Red Flag with the USAF.Funny, I thought the same thing...
@Brett327 , lots of talk in there about the Carrier Air Wing. What do exped squadrons do for work-ups? Do they get scheduled for range time and such when the air wings aren’t in town? Does the weapons school handle them locally?
Next you’ll have to read Sledge’s “With the Old Breed at Peleiu and Okinawa.” It is a great book. I had the honor of meeting Robert Leckie not long after he published “A Few Acres of Snow.”Having just binged on HBO's "The Pacific", I'm now reading "Helmet For My Pillow: From Parris Island To The Pacific" by Robert Leckie...some of the source material for the TV series.

If you like WWI history and you're interested in the German side of the story, this one is of very high, scholarly quality. The problem with trying to find good material about Germany is a lot of published stuff is either rehashed or you run into a lot of impertinent neonazi shit that you have to sift through (this is especially true for the online stuff). This book gets into the personalities of a lot of the senior German officers. What makes it interesting is learning about how they didn't always get along with each other, specifically who and when at different points in the war. There's also a lot of pretty good technical discussion (tactics, logistics, etc.).
Be careful. I looked at an online preview and found several spelling issues. For example he often wrote about the “centre” of the line or some “programme” of training. ?You've piqued my interest. Rupprecht was a very effective commander.
If you’re going to criticise the way he spells “behaviour” and “colour,” you can sod off, you wanker.Be careful. I looked at an online preview and found several spelling issues. For example he often wrote about the “centre” of the line or some “programme” of training. ?
