Moralismus ist die letzte Zuflucht von Versagern und Ganoven. Wer anderen moralisch kommt, ist meistens selbst ein krummer Hund.

@Historical_Revi @PGilday45277 @VoicesofWW2 They were actually considering it. Goering said "If I had 5 para divisions, I would go over right now". Not sure if they had succeeded without armoured forces and heavy weapons. Problem - Hitler liked the Brits and was hoping for peace with them. His real goal were the Sovjets.

"Chaque civilisation croit que son mode de vie est le seul bon et le seul concevable, qu'elle doit y convertir le monde ou le lui infliger. On ne fonde pas un empire seulement par caprice. On assujettit les autres pour qu'ils vous imitent, pour qu'ils se modèlent sur vous, sur vos croyances et vos habitudes ; vient ensuite l'impératif pervers d'en faire des esclaves pour contempler en eux l'ébauche flatteuse ou caricaturale de soi-même."

@PGilday45277 @Historical_Revi @VoicesofWW2 Jump training was continued at Fallschirmschule Stendal till '42, then they even opened a second one at Wittstock, a 3rd one at Braunschweig and a 4th one in Holland. My uncle got his Fallschirmschützen badge in winter '43 as a 19yr old. Later perished at Dien Bien Phu for France

@Julien50977492 @RealFakeHanna Ja. Und schon das nächste Problem: Selbst wenn man im "öffentlichen Raum" führen dürfte, würden Bahn, Marktbetreiber etc. genau da im Rahmen ihres Hausrechts das Führen verbieten🤪

@dietmarcpt @PGilday45277 @Historical_Revi @VoicesofWW2 You're right. But I had no more space to be more specific 😁

@PGilday45277 @Historical_Revi @VoicesofWW2 "stopped jump training"? 🤣 Might look for battles of Leros, Sicily etc. They jumped even in the Bulge. Btw Crete was initially 8000 paras (reinforced by Gebirgsjäger) vs 40000 defending Brits and Greeks. Alamein was 50000/50000 German/Italian vs 200000 Brits.

Most people think they know Germany.

But the real shock comes when you step into the small towns—places that never show up on top 10 lists but hold stories just as powerful.

Here are the places that feel like stepping into another world. 🧵

Coanda Effect helps an aircraft generate additional lift by ensuring airflow sticks to the wing’s surface, particularly when slats and flaps are extended. This allows the plane to maintain lift at high angles of attack and low speeds, making takeoff and landing safer and more efficient. The upward arrows above the wing represent the extra lift produced, while the downward-curving airflow at the trailing edge illustrates the Coanda Effect in action.
