Can I please have my TB in WG back in Novgorod chaps?

[FMErwinRommel]

Yes Adam

[Private-Panic]

Thanks Ed. Just realised that I meant to build the 2 inf and 1 art I put in WG in Paris and the 3 mech in G should be in WG. The excitement of capturing Moscow must have got to me!!!

[Witt]

You are a horror!

[Private-Panic]

To my enemies! :evil:

[FMErwinRommel]

I made the edits from WG>Par and G>WG.  Waiting to consult with my ally on Russian moves.

[FMErwinRommel]

The Rubles are worthless counterfeits, the gold is stashed in my Uncle Leo’s apartment in Brooklyn.

[Private-Panic]

What! Leo is your Uncle! :-o No wonder you guys are winning in the Pacific! :x

[Witt]

That is right, Adam. Ed is actually asking me , where to move his troops in non com.

[FMErwinRommel]

No, Leo Seinfeld, Jerry Seinfeld’s Uncle.  I assume that Witt’s name is Leonardo, being Italian.  Hey Leo, did any of your relatives serve in the Italian military in WWII?  I knew someone, now deceased, who was in the Kriegsmarine.on a mine sweeper.  Who killed Mussolini?  300 Italian sharpshooters.  How many gears are on an Italian tank?  Two: park and reverse.

[Witt]

Nonno, my dad’s dad, was a pre war volunteer. He was in the army from 1932. He joined up , after being in his parents’ trade, antiques. He was in Abyssinia amd Libya. He was part of Thw CSIR (the 100000 Italians sent to the Ukraine in 41). Fortunately, he was invalided out that winter, with ear problems. He was home in Florence for the Soring of 42 and did not join the newly formed, and  ill equipped, 8Th Army. It would be crushed on the Northern  shoulder of the German 6Th Army in Operation Saturn.
He spent the reminder of the war, avoiding reconsription.  He was 36, when the war ended. He had reached the rank of Corporal. He was a small, wiry,  man, but was a very strong  swimmer and was a Greco/Romano champion wrestler.
He never had a good word to say about the Germans amd witnessed many atrocities.
He married a country girl of 15 in late 42. My dad was born mid August 43, just 4 weeks before the Allies landed at Salerno. They were dangerous times, with Civil War breaking out between te Fascists and Communists.

[FMErwinRommel]

Glad for your granddad.  The whole Stalingrad battle theater was a waste of human life and gross misuse of a great fighting machine.  Several of my uncles and an aunt served in WWII, but strangely and unfortunately, we never discussed their role or experiences.  My dad went thru boot camp and glider mechanic training but then received a medical discharge.  I was surprised that we had glider mechanics.  My aunt joined as a nurse in Feb 1942 and served in the army air corp in the China, Burma India theater, perhaps with the flying tigers. I just watched the movie The Darkest Hour last night.  I saw the movie Dunkirk last year.  Interesting that 2 WWII movies just came out about Dunkirk.
