Great pics, I have a lot of books covering WWII that have a few of them but the majority of those I have never seen. Since anyone reading this thread is probably interested, check out some WWII artifacts I found in the attic.

great pics....+1

Back then when we were at war the whole country was involved and listening to what was happening, now we just go on with our lives as usual, getting updates from the drive by media.

Some of those pictures are from WW-I. The helmets and planes are different from that era.

I have a bunch of pictures that my Father took during WW-II. It has quite a few diverse pictures. My Father won the Silver Star for his role being the first group of US Soldiers to capture the Dachau concentration camp. Although I have approx 100 pictures from that particular invasion, I am not willing to share those as they are intensly disturbing and private. But, I can scan in the rest of the pictures i someone wants to host them and put them in this thread...

I hate this picture! The stories my uncles tell me about what the Nazis did to my parents family sickens me! Fucker deserved every beating he got!
Mussolini opened his jacket and screamed "Shoot me in the chest!". Audisio shot him in the chest. Mussolini fell down but he didn't die; he was breathing heavily. Audisio went near and he shot one more bullet in his chest. Mussolini's face looked as if he had significant pain. Audisio said to his driver "Look at his face, the emotions on his face don't suit him".


Mussolini's body
On April 29, 1945, the bodies of Mussolini and his mistress were taken to the Piazzale Loreto (in Milan) and hung upside down on meathooks from the roof of a gas station, then stoned by civilians from below.

That's an honest assessment, and I agree. We have a -much- different culture now, to say the least. It's been said that if we had to fight a war similar to WWII again that we couldn't as so much of our manufacturing base has been off-shored.
