Sir JR2, congratulations on your appointment. In these dangerous days it seems helpful to have Americans and Brits appearing as one and the same, at least in some ways.
Sneaky, what facinating facts. It was generous of you to share it with us here. It seems that like the documented history of events concerning the war, we keep learning new things all the time even these sixty years later. We find ourselves re-learning things we thought we understood as new facts come to light. It is a primary reason I have studied WWII since I was a kid and have the same passion for it that was present from the start. Thanks you very much for bringing this remarkable peice of that history to us.
