Saint Patty's day! Today we had a discussion about how blog is not a real word and how blogging is gonna die out (I hope soon). Now we're getting back on subject.... yaay....
Sir Winston Churchill was nighted.
Only country left standing was GB. Hitler respected GB, he thought they had a nice Aryan race, good past. But GB wouldn't go with Hitler's ideas, so Hitler decided to attack.
Battle of Britain -
They're an island. Great Britain didn't wimp out of an attack like France did. It was a tough invasion. Hitler always intended to invade Great Britain.
They took out airplanes, so they won't take out yours.
Nazi Goals -
- Destroy the Royal Air Force (before invasion was possibly-hopefully by 9-15.
- Attack and destroy British Navi
- Attack British Troops
-Germany never succeeded in achieving number one
- German bombers did so poorly against the RAF that they started bombing at night only.
Great Britain was aided heavily by the radar and Ultra.
Invasion never happened!
- What did the US do in the late 1930's that pushed us closer to war?
Cash & Carry System
We were very neutral - we weren't in the war, but we supplied our allies.
FDR sings the Lend-Lease Act - shifted us away from being "neutral"
Battle of the Atlantic:
Allied power is having a hard time on their side.
German U-boat warfare - submarines. They suck a lot of ships in the early parts of the war.
