Leaving the Philippines wasn’t a “strategy” by MacArthur; he was ordered to leave by Roosevelt. It should also be noted that MacArthur’s handling of the opening phases of the Philippines campaign was sloppy; as I recall, he was caught unprepared by the Japanese invasion, even though by the time it started he had already heard about the raid on Pearl Harbor.

@ABWorsham:

Had the Channel been abandoned, I would then focus on mining the trade routes around Scotland. Then step up bombing the western port cities.

Would be nice to have a four engine bomber fleet. :cry:

How would you mine the routes around Scotland? They could just keep going around them…

Here’s an odd item I came across. During WWII, the narrow-gauge Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (located in Kent) operated a miniature armoured train, which it used to patrol the coast in case of invasion. It carried two Boys anti-tank rifles and four Lewis machine guns, and was manned by the 6th Battalion, Somerset Light Infantry. It supposedly shot down a Messerschmitt Bf 109, a Heinkel He 111 and a Dornier Do 17. There are two pictures of it here:

I feel the video would do it justice better than just me telling the story.

@balungaloaf:

Edit: Let’s not include hidden messages (political) in your posts. What happens is people who are on the other side start a flame war.

:lol:

This is exactly what I talk about with the bias around here. B isn’t starting a flame war, but someone who responds to that nonsense is?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Anyway, the WW2 in HD is on Xbox Live. I watched the preview and was tempted to get it, but since I don’t own an HD TV, it would be semipointless.

They even had one on Gilligan’s Island.

Yeah, but that one only lasted 3 hours. Well, it was supposed to anyway…
