RE: 8th air force

Hopefully the patch won't be long in coming.
68 bmr.losses for 710 bmr.is manageable but for a mission of 360 it's not war it's murder!

RE: NY Times underestimate Hitler in 1922

If Hitler had died in 1938 he probably would have gone down as the greatest german statesman since Bismarck.

Technically Sicily was part of Italy,although you'd probably get an argument from the Sicilian's about that.
They considered themselves Sicilian's not Italian's.

8th air force

I have been having trouble getting the 8th to fly a maximum effort strike.
All I can get is 360 bombers.I set strike number to 1,min.ac to 1 and req.to 999
no go only 360,with these same settings bc flies over 800.
Set req.to 1200 same result.Must be doing something wrong.
