Tough sh!t. I stand by what I said. Two generations of my family fought these bastards in two world wars. I really don't give a damn about the Krauts. They've never really liked us. I believe in what Winston Churchill said of them "The Hun is either at your feet or at your throat''.

Fair enough. My Grandfather flew B-17s during the Second World War, and then his son married a German immigrant. So as you might expect, it's always been a complicated story in my family.

A friend of mine who took an RPG in the Korengal Valley told me that the Germans were by far the best of the international contingent, and that he always appreciated working with them. So it's a topic that, admittedly, gets under my skin.

I appreciate you taking the time to reply, and I respect your opinion, even though I disagree with it. And I guess it's true that Churchill has a quote for everything.
