I mean according to the battle of Castle Itter, there was a SS officer that helped the allies out.

The flame thrower! Saved a lot of Marine’s lives.
-
Prophylaxis kits!
-
Ha Ha Ha!

-
Do not have any ideas of my own, but like Landing Craft, mentioned by Garg.

Prophylaxis kits!
At one time in the Italian Campaign somtime like 40% of the American Troops suffered from some from of STD.

Are you suggesting Italian women were loose?
Just so you know my grandmother(a happy Fascist) never fraternised with the enemy.
She was country folk. Must have been the city dwelling Communist sympathisers!As an aside, Italian men think English girls easy.
Maybe it is because Italian men do not like to use rubber and the English are all on the pill. -
id say trains, or the russian prewar army :)

The general infantry soldier is sometimes forgotten in World War Two with the love of tanks and planes. The Soviet Infantry may be the most underrated of all infantry in the war. These men were strengthened by the hardships of living in Stalin’s Russia. Even in the great German encirclements of 1941 pockets of Russian soldiers put up a fight that the Germans had yet to have experienced in the battles in the West.
In terms of machines I believe the Savoya-Marchetti 79 is an underrated bomber.

It was a great Torpedo Bomber and we are lucky to have its sculpt.
There were not many three engined planes in WW2. I suppose the most famous is the JU52. -
The most underrated fighter in WWII was the F4F Wildcat. It did the job in the early days in the Pacific. Then in the later years in the battle of the Atlantic it perfomed a role in convoy escort. Where would we have been without it?

The Russian army knive

Razor…… Nice!

Does vodka in Russia come with a cork and not screwtop?
-
Usually they knock of the bottle top and drink, kinda like russian roulette.
priviet comrade!!! :-D :-D
-
Perhaps it’s homemade and comes with a cork! The smashing off of the top of the bottle is an awesome mental image and just how I would imagine a hard core Russian drinker to to it!

Speaking of homemade.
Most underrated weapon of WWII?
Mothers.
If germany had more mothers in 1925 on, say triple or quadruple… maybe they would have pulled something off.
And lets not forget to mention the ladies working in factories, pumping out the weapons of the world!

Germany’s leaders appear to have thought likewise:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_of_Honor_of_the_German_Mother
The decoration was conferred from between 1939 until 1945 in three classes of order, bronze, silver, and gold to Reichsdeutsche mothers who exhibited probity, exemplary motherhood, and who conceived and raised at least four or more children in the role of a parent.
