Just going to watch Rise and Fall of the Third Reich real quick before going to the bar tonight. WWII is a good conversation starter, right?

Anonymous asked: I'm trying to discover more about medical corps during WWII. How were they assigned and divided? Any enlistment pre-reqs? How and at what age were they trained? How could they advance in rank? I'm particularly interested in the 9th Army (Wehrmacht) as well as travelling field hospitals. I'm having a hard time finding resources for the German military. Most of my research gives me...

My books have shipped from Vegas to LA. I live in Minnesota. That’s what I get for choosing Amazon’s free super saver shipping.

wehrhafter-kampf asked: Hi! Have you got any sources on the prevalence of church-burnings, priest-shootings etc? I love to get my hands on that! According to what I remember from Beevor's book on the civil war, much of it was perceived - used as propaganda to show the red menace that brought rape of nuns, destruction of everything and anarchy. I'd love to get more info on that. Cheers!

Currently working on Spanish Civil War posts hence the lack of posts this weekend. I want to provide information that can prompt further research rather than posting a large amount of photos with no context so the process is slow. Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Would you guys have any interest in seeing photos [with, of course, written captions] from the Spanish Civil War?
