I'm laughing at how American vehicles were apparently abandoned in mud puddles while Kruppstahl was hauled back and every bit of the Also laughing at what I presume is where credentials go on that website. "Read over 100 books on WW2." Half tempted to find where that is and write a rebuttal with "have a PhD in German history." But I won't. Because I'm lazy. and because I have to go get really loving drunk because I think I just got a real grown up adult job holy poo poo

Mycroft Holmes posted:please kill me If it makes you feel better, the top voted answer for that on Quora is "The Americans kicked their rear end in literally every way." Reading his profile, he claims to be a descendant of an SS soldier. He's also denied that there's any concrete evidence of gas chambers in the concentration camps (with one of his sources being https://www.expeltheparasite.com), stated that the SS always got the best training and equipment, and admitted to getting banned from Fortnite for hacking. So not a kid, just an outright Nazi. chitoryu12 fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Apr 11, 2018 |

I used to post on the gamefaqs forums as a youth and I remember one time in a Medal of Honor game forum (frontline? It doesn’t matter) some kid asked to proofread his high school essay about d-day and it was literally just a description of the opening of Saving Private Ryan. He thought the characters were real and that’s how d-day happened. I think he came back and said he got a B on it

I literally bored everyone to death and still got an A, so yeah. This scenario sounds disturbingly real.

You're right, I just grabbed a title from memory. My point is that there's a certain type of kid who loiters in the mil hist aisle at big box bookstores and can end up speaking from what they see as a position of authority on things.
