Italy picked the wrong side - twice? Not sure I follow that logic.

Also, those losses of Russians look vastly underrated. 1.3 million? Times ten maybe.

LOL yeah.  Not sure exactly what he was referring to.  Couldn't be WWI.  :o

Speaking of WWI.. I was tricked into thinking that was the subject of this one!  JD has deceived me!   :'(

Sorry about that - my fingers seem to be making more and more spelling mistakes recently.  :(

I know how it is.  Although I can blame some of it on physical injury which has forced me to change my typing style.  :D

One alarming thing is that I've occasionally had to check spelling of a word, over the last couple years.  It's odd because I was always excellent at spelling in the past and never had to do that.  Must be my memory counter being flipped to it's half-strength side.  ;)

I just got to the end of this piece and noticed that it was created by College Humor.

Now those guys can be funny, but they clearly didn't graduate at the top of their class if they didn't know which side Italy fought on during the First World War...

^ If they'd read a biography of Rommel at some point then they would have had their memory refreshed. Before he was known as a motorized warfare innovator he was a small unit tactical innovator on the Italian front.

I think we can stop right there. I seriously doubt the guys at College Humor have read a Rommel bio.

Come to think of it, I haven't read a bio of Rommel. Guess that's another book or two I need to add to my list...

[Staggerwing]

Well, we can always ease them into the subject with a movie.



Then they can follow the advice in my sig...

I probably know less about Mussolini than any of the other big power wartime leaders.
