    A side note about adolph galland.The german airforce ( Luftwaffe), found out that 6 U.S. airmen were being held in a concentration camp.They went to rescue them and bring them to a Luftwaffe p.o.w. camp.The SS said no,your not! Then general gallant showed up,pistol drawn,and said,yes we are! While the american flyiers were being brought out, a captain of gallants men sneaked over and took a crap in the front drivers seat of an SS staff car.The Luftwaffe and regular army german troops hated the SS,because they were cold blooded murderes.

    Powerful Allie ship bck in WII. It’s a shame things have switch Lynda dez days and we don’t have Russia 🇷🇺 as a close Allie any more like we were. And Germany is now on side. Who rubbed who, up the wrong way to get to the point we’re now at with Russia. It doesn’t make sense. And we’re was China during all of this Carnage?
