Is today D-Day?
Im sure it is otherwise i should buy a Calender.
Discuss perhaps...

In a somewhat unrelated, yet WWII related event, I recently downloaded a new George Carlin album and in it, he mentions that Hitler had an undescended testicle.

Also, according to Carlin, the British had a song about it. Went like this:
"Hitler! He only has one ball!
Goering, has two but they are small.
Himmler has something similar,
but old Goebbels has no balls at all!"

Did they really have a song like that?

Perhaps i heard a Jewish Goat bit off Hitlers.
Goering squealed like a girl
Himmler was a Chicken Farmer and dare old Goering liked Morphine...

Yes, indeed we did, from testaments from elderly relatives of mine, but there was also a differing version also:

Hitler! Has only got one ball!
The other, is in the Albert Hall!
His mother, the dirty f****r,
cut it off, when he was small!



It is D-Day today, 61 years ago today.

Great so the most critical day in the Invasion and Liberation of Europe dosent get a decent look in even though 22 viewings have there been. :mad:

"Whistle while you work.
Hitler is a twerp.
He's half-barmy,
So's his army.
Whistle while you work!"

Forgive them. Pubesent mindset after all. Besides, they will find out first hand the meaning of the day when they have to re-live it for real.

Yeah, why would anyone post in this thread when there's one about masturbation floating around somewhere?

And there is no chance of there ever being a second D-Day, thanks to Brussels and the Euro.

Yep sure pleased about how well this went! :rolleyes:

If I had looked at the General forums, I would have posted. Mainly becuase my B-Day is on the Anniversary of D-Day. And despite popular belief, D-Day DOES NOT mean Death Day or Doom Day. It's D-Day, H-Hour, M-Minute. That's how it got its name. And technically it's Operation Overlord, not D-Day.

EDIT: Spelling.

I give you this from the History Channel,

Five days after the D-Day landing, the five Allied landing groups, made up of some 330,000 troops, link up in Normandy to form a single solid front across northwestern France.
On June 6, 1944, after a year of meticulous planning conducted in secrecy by a joint Anglo-American staff, the largest combined sea, air, and land military operation in history began on the French coast at Normandy. The Allied invasion force included 3 million men, 13,000 aircraft, 1,200 warships, 2,700 merchant ships, and 2,500 landing craft.
Fifteen minutes after midnight on June 6, the first of 23,000 U.S., British, and Canadian paratroopers and glider troops plunged into the darkness over Normandy. Just before dawn, Allied aircraft and ships bombed the French coast along the Baie de la Seine, and at daybreak the bombardment ended as 135,000 Allied troops stormed ashore at five landing sites. Despite the formidable German coastal defenses, beachheads were achieved at all five landing locations. At one site--Omaha Beach--German resistance was especially strong, and the Allied position was only secured after hours of bloody fighting by the Americans assigned to it. By the evening, some 150,000 American, British, and Canadian troops were ashore, and the Allies held about 80 square miles. During the next five days, Allied forces in Normandy moved steadily forward in all sectors against fierce German resistance. On June 11, the five landing groups met up, and Operation Overlord--the code name for the Allied invasion of northwestern Europe--proceeded as planned.

It wasn't. While the western allies were fighting with divisions, on the Eastern Front the Germans and Russians were fighting with army groups. As a battle, D-Day was smaller than many rear-guard skirmishes in the East, and its strategic significance would have far greater implications for the Cold War than for the outcome of WW2.
