It was the largest and most destructive conflict in all of history. Germany invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, thus starting World War II. An estimated 40,000,000 to 50,000,000 people died during World War II. But in order to make sure nothing like that ever happens again, we must learn from our past!
We still feel the effects of such a large-scale conflict today. And we are still finding new information about it all the time!

  1. Interesting Video – Sydney, Australia was attacked by 3 midget submarines in the night on 29th May, 1942. 2 of the 3 of them were found until #3 was discovered embedded deep in a sand bank off a beach only a few years ago. 2 bodies of the sailors were found & repatriated back to Japan to be laid to rest. The Australian War Memorial built their mini submarine for their display from the remainder of the first 2 submarines. Very brave sailors indeed.

  2. My dad was with the 101st Yankee division during WW2. They were pulling guard duty along the east coast beaches looking for spies. My dad was really bored at not seeing action so he decided to become a tail gunner on the B29. He took his physical and the found he had a hole in his eardrum. While he was waiting to be discharged his unit went to Italy and fought the Germans in the Italian Alps. The unit took about 60% killed and many more wounded. That hole in his eardrum saved his life but he had guilt until the day he died.

  3. What the nazis did was horrific and wrong. That being said, in reference to that eagle that was found recovered and sold, I don't rhink that hiding or destroying it is the right thing to do either. Although it wasn't outright said, that is the inference I get. Its the same thing thats haplening in the USA with people trying to delete things about the confederacy and whatnot. Its history. Not particularly good history, but it shouldn't be deleted. Lest we repeat it.

  4. How can we learn from our history if it's being erased? Our children are not being taught about what has been. So how can I know what will be? This is super disturbing for me! I grew up in the 80s and I know my history. And I just can't fathom the thinking that goes on with people that want to erase that in our history books! Does anybody feel the same about this one?!
