Yes, one can understand why they were so upset. I mean, the temerity of the English-ensuring that their fleet wasn't handed over to Hitler!

The joys of joint operations. British Sea Hurricanes were painted with US insignia during Operation Torch to avoid being attacked by American fighters.

No kidding. I never knew this before. Anyone got a pix?

Low-quality, but still. FAA Sea Hurricane off HMS Biter, during Operation Torch:

All Frog-baiting aside, how do you think YOU would feel?

I think I would have been angered at the loss of life on 'my side', but inwardly grateful that my materiel wasn't being used to facilitate the prosecution of the war for the benefit of my country's occupiers.

It's been some time since we've had a vicarious BFU update. Do tell...

Apprentky they've been going out for 2 months now. He had dinner with us tonight. Of course and 11yo brother is always around to run interference.

I thought it was to avoid being attacked by French fighters? (Seriously)

[sprior]

How unsporting. It's not like the RN had done that a couple of times historically ...

Strictly speaking the French were now neutral having signed the armistice with Hitler so were no longer allied with the UK. However even being neytral is no defence, just look at the battle of Copehnagen in 1807. Sorry about that T.

I look out my door,
And I see it is snowing,
While my guitar gently weeps...

I must go to work,
But I really don't wanna,
Still my guitar gently weeps...

Sounds like someone just DL'ed the Beatles anthology.[8D]

Hi all,

Leslie Nielsen died... [:(]

For me his "Forbidden Planet" (1956) was great movie (also it was his start in acting career)!

Just that song. I've got a lot of Beatles songs already, but I didn't have that one.
