  • Sorry,

    EasyCompanyAirborne - you lose this battle. No more posts for you.

  • I will bite my tongue.

  • What happened at Juno Beach. I always thought the action was on Omaha Beach.

  • Omaha & Utah were the code names for the US landing sites, Gold & Sword for the Brits, while Juno was the Canadian landing site

see all

  • Oi you total and utter idiot without us Brits the war would've been lost. We did not run at all. We were the only country in Europe at war that wasn't occupied. Our tiny Island resited Nazi tyranny for 6 years. About half that time without America. We were the ones who declared war and stood up to bullies like Hitler and Mussolini. Do us all a favour and don't comment.

  • EasyCompanyAirborne, You are an idiot. Go back to kindergarten.
