There was a time in my life when I was professionally associated with Burtonwood, the memory of which was rather less of the US 8th Air Force than of
the oversize US Army trucks from the year 1960 that had been in storage there for decades. I looked at these trucks in 1982, if I recall.
It is the last time I was in the UK, too, mind you, which is something.
Burtonwood had part of the pre positioned US Army materiel ready for World War III in the cold war of blessed memory.
At the time, I was struck by the fact that these trucks were built in 1960 and had fifty miles on the odometer in 1982.
Such is the folly of war.
Today a Russian naval task force boldly sails through the English Channel on its way to pound the benighted in Syria and so forth.
What a world.
It is hard enough to find a piece of a Focke Wulf 190 let alone fifty of them wrapped in cosmoline in a magic mountain.

It was about women getting their paps out for the lads! Some of us from a certain age group will remember 'Tina Smalls' in this paper.Another sample of their style of reporting....
Oh yeah I got that bit, it was all the other nonsense headlines like the above earlier ones !It was about women getting their paps out for the lads! Some of us from a certain age group will remember 'Tina Smalls' in this paper.
The magic tunnel narrative is generalized and spreading rapidly since the Silesian gold train took hold.

Whatever increases the public appetite for old Nazi stuff, it is fine with me. I am hoarding more than my share.
