The Sydney was a light cruiser.Their main role is mainly air defense of a fleet but can engage lighter ships.Both of these ships were similiar.The Sydney had a little more firepower with a few extra 152mm cannons.Both ships had the same weakness of no armor protection for weaponry.They both shared torpedoes to.It all boiled down to who got the first shots off.With the Sydneys tower being destroyed,exposed the Sydneys second weakness.No redundant power source for weaponry.These weaknesses have been corrected on all ships made since then.With only 30% of the crew still alive to man weapons and fight fires and maneuver the ship meant chaos.The Kormorans 5.9 inch cannons have a pretty fast rate of fire.As the Sydneys 6 inch.Sydneys 152 mm cannons are the same size rounds used by our M1 Abrams battle tanks.At 1 thousand yards,there was a lot of explosives flying.With no power the Sydney struggled to get their rounds off.It was a classic do or die,fight to the death.To our australian comrade...

Nazism is often considered by scholars to be a form of fascism. The Nazis formed most of their alliances on the RIGHT WING. The Nazis were one of several historical groups that used the term National Socialism to describe themselves, and in the 1920s they became the largest such group. Among the key elements of Nazism were anti-parliamentarism, Pan-Germanism, racism, collectivism, eugenics, anti-Semitism, anti-communism, totalitarianism and opposition to economic liberalism and political liberalism. Reading world history books may be very informative.

Ted Kennedy was lone survivor from the (Sunken Sedan) SS Oldsmobile, a four-door GM Class battle wagon. His First Mate, Mary Jo Kopechne wasn't quite so lucky. I wonder if Ted ever awakens abruptly to the sound of her screams/gurgling in the middle of the night. Naaaaaa. That would indicate the presence of a conscience.

Remember WWII was the only war in the history of the USA where we had to defend ourselves. All the other wars are what you would call..MONEY WARS.We create an enemy of pick one side in a nations civil war and fight for one side.Are troops who go and fight in a another nations civil war hero's?Why do we say they are defending the USA.When the USA invaded Hawaii and Samoa were they defending the USA?The same for the Spanish American War, WW I, Desert Strom and the latest wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In the 1980's the Taliban were the good guys, now they are the bad guys.Will it change back in 15 plus years?I remember in the 1950's nobody would buy anything made in Germany or Japan. Then in late 1970's nobody would buy anything made in Vietnam. And China? Ohoo they use to be the bad guys. Wars. Ho hum.. thanks God all of our troops are volunteers these days. I know some people who still hate the DamnYankee's They burned our homes and crops. Stole the pigs and cows.Raped ...

The last German election for president was 1932. Hindiberg won and then died and Hitler abolished the office of President and appointed himself Fuhrer and Chancellor. All Presidents since 1949 have been appointed by a Federal Convention. So, the last elected president of Germany was Hindenberg in 1932. But what has this have to do with this story.

ok so..... it takes about 40 years for denial to lift in Australia.... The German sailors told the Aussies the truth a long time ago and they just couldn't accept that their navy was full of dumbasses.... doesn't surprise me... Australians were a penial colony and now they don't allow tourists with DUI felonies.... They don't know who they are... This story would be the equivilant of us not believing a iceberg could sink the titanic and us refusing to believe it when the survivors all told us what happened...

Funny how it usually turns out that the simplest explanation is the true one, not that that gives the familys any comfort. War is a hellish endeavour and brings sorrow to everyone but the profitiers and the undertakers.......the rest of us always lose no matter who wins. God rest you in peace in Gods house for it wasnt your choice but the powers that be. And all this time later with all of our technology how we havent learned a thing.
