McSpredder Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Watched some of it on BBC TV, presenter Joanna Lumley. Ex-servicemen, who must all have been mid-90s at least, never fluffed their words, no "ums" and "ers", spoke more fluently than some of the highly paid professionals who appear regularly on our screens.

The Grant tank was replaced by the Sherman in the Western Desert and Europe and shipped to Burma. The Hurricane went out there too and after the war it took a long time to get the troops and POWs home. To be fair, the Japanese tanks weren't up to much and the Hurricane was a match for the Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets not forget that the Russians declared war on the japanese on the 8 of august, invading manchuria, and helping to bring the war to an end. It wasn't just about the atomic bombs, those russians wanted revenge for the 1905-07 war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
