Special thanks to “Pete,” “jsinaiko,” “Rubber Ducky,” and “JPWREL” ...
I thought the discussion of the relief of generals started slowly but got much better. By the way, I haven’t checked all the files, but if memory serves, this is the biggest number of comments we’ve had on any post in the history of this blog. Special thanks to “Pete,” “jsinaiko,” “Rubber Ducky,” and “JPWREL” for their meaty comments.
I haven’t read Clay Blair’s Forgotten War but have ordered it from Amazon. Right now I am still mired in the bocage of 1944 in my research, but yeah, I need to get a move on.
This is exactly the sort of exchange I had hoped to see in the blog. I appreciate the efforts of all who contributed.
