    Well done OP on trying to make D-Day relevant to all that's going on today, and failing miserably.

    On the last year of war when Germany was already defeated by its own mistakes. 4 years before the English were running back to Britain leaving their ally alone that could do nothing than show a white flag.

    I was watching it till the bloody family came home, now I’m watching power rangers.
    If old war movies have taught me nothing else it’s that everyone in the Second World War was middle aged.

    Events from 76 years ago and 13 years ago on the first page of current events, yet a thread about a murder from a month ago is deemed not current enough

    Some were it's own mistakes.... Other reason was a few million very pissed off Russians.
