• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

A tremendous 2 part video on youtube about Luftwaffe pilot Heinz Knoke. If anybody has not seen this video it is definitely worth watching. Wish I could supply the link to this youtube video but don't know how to do it.
 
The book is flat out great too...

...I read it first in about the 4th grade, having bought it from one of the school-sponsored book clubs. Fantastic book not only about flying and combat, but about the human condition in war. Probably wouldn't be allowed to be sold in today's classrooms-- it's not PC enough.

Gods i'm such a rabid american.. Thank the odd gods of the universe that wars do come to an end and we can all go back to celebrating life in all its diversity instead of killing each other because of it..

At exactly 14:17 minutes into the film, pause it and check out the spiral contrails coming off the b-17s engines. absolutely amazing..
