Hmm, the Tiv here want to hear about Hamlet which I've been reading, surely this will be the moment I can show that the story can be universally understood even by tribes in remote West Africa Why did Hamlet's dad only have Gertrude? More wives are good. Also, remarrrying after over two years?!? Wow this Polonius sure is an idiot Clearly Hamlet was possessed by a witch to be mad This Hamlet is a total clown, deserved to be cursed Everyone knows ghosts aren't real! That was clearly Hamlet's father as a zombi controlled by a witch

tanks are better than infantry? | History Memes

History "Buffs": 44 44 Actual historians: Nein, Maus would have save the war If Germany built more Panthers they'd have won! You are all dumb. They should have built more Tigers! No, those were all expensive. StuGs were the way to go! The Germans had enough tanks. They did not have enough infantry and air support. Hitler and Guderian relied too much on tanks. Manstein asked Hitler for two more infantry divisions for Operation Citadel, but was refused. Germany did not lose WW2 because of a lack of tanks. - Dr. Roman Töppel

On D-Day, Matthew Ridgway and James Gavin jumped into Normandy to lead the 82nd Airborne Division by example. | History Memes

BBC Mein Herr! Der Amis* have brought up panzers! Matthew Ridgway James Gavin & The Bridge at La Fière Then block the bridge and use Panzerfausts! If we lose this bridge, WE LOSE THE BEACH! German slur for Americans Matthew, the Germans set a truck as a roadblock Our men are pinned down! James, lead the boys across the bridge. I'll deal with the truck We take this bridge, we take Utah Beach. Jumping on the night of D-Day, the 82nd "All American" Airborne Division had the mission of capturing the town of Sainte-Mère-Église to the west of Utah Beach. Ridgway found himself alone in a pitch-dark field. Ten miles away, his second-in-command, James Gavin, took charge of most of the fighting for the next twenty-four hours. PTZ AR Gavin landed some two miles short of his intended drop zone and immediately began rounding up scattered paratroopers. a crucial fight erupted at the La Frière causeway and bridge. one of the few routes that German forces to the west of Sainte-Mère-Église could use to assault Utah Beach. enemy mortar and artillery fire were intense. the bridge and causeway beyond were littered with dead and dying Americans. Gavin joined them on the causeway, encouraging faltering men to go forward with a calm, "Son, you can do it." while Ridgway started to tie a cable to the truck still blocking the bridge, so it could be pulled aside and allow the Shermans to advance. the paratroops and glidermen pushed the Germans back Moving across the causeway and dislodging the Germans to its west finally allowed forces from Utah Beach to move further into the Cotentin Peninsula.
