Good websites to visit.

[Kevin Kenneally]

I spent an hour last night just barely scratching the surface of what the links here provide. Wow. Great stuff...really interesting.

I am glad these websites are providing folks with GREAT information.

When I got started in SL over 30 years age, the local library was my only source of reading materials.

Thank You Al Gore and this marvelous invention called the "I-net"....

isn't that the truth.. it is amazing what you can find out there on the net compared to years past. The mere mention of an HASL module on the siege of Sevastopol for 2010 sent me into an instant hours long internet orgy of 'research' and scouring the web hahah. When you have to shower ..get dressed and drive to local library when the 'inspiration' hits you sort of puts a damper on that kind of thing.

didn't see this site mentioned.. so I'll put it in here in case anyone hasn't seen it. I found a couple of weeks ago while researching .. hmm.. can't remember what... but was directed to this...

fascinating reading..

the larger site btw...is apolitical.. and is a wealth of minutia and detail for the researchers and scenario creators of all sorts out there.

I just found an interesting site concerning the French Army 1940.

http://france1940.free.fr/en_index.html

As a result of some broken links on that site and some Googling I also found this

Another place to visit has all the US Army Green books for the ETO, MTO and PTO actions.

As well as other "US Army "Official" books and pamphlets:

Here's another site with "term papers" written by WWII officers attending The Infantry School after the war. They usually wrote about actions they were involved in.

https://www.infantry.army.mil/monographs/content/wwii/index.htm

Gary,

This website will convert to a combined library with Armor and Infantry papers posted there.

Anyone know where the Infantry Monographs went when the Armor and Infantry Centers combined? Fingers crossed.

Kind of a necro-post here, but this was indeed an awesome link - feel like a kid in a candy store!! =)

All,

I highly recommend this website to visit if you wish to get more information to read about WWII for possible scenarios.

In reference to the Infantry School monographs, I've found some on the www.benning.army.mil site.

A cool website for some amazing photos of Stalingrad and a host of other WWII photos. Particularly tanks.

Most excellent. Love the bit on the T-44
(I have yet to find a source which confrims action, and cannot see it as a small target , either)

And some guys want to change foxholes.:angry:

 

[chris_olden]

That T-44 article states that the T-44 didn't see action
in Europe during WW2. However, the T-44
supposedly saw action during the last 3 days
of combat against the Japanese...
Hmmm...
