World War II History Thread
Thank you for sharing that wonderful woman’s memories with us here. It’s one of the best WW2 stories I’ve ever read, and there have been many…..even from my family. My earliest memory of international events is from the Berlin Airlift era - my dad said to clean my dinner plate because what I was wasting would feed a German kid for a week. Then he explained in simple terms what was going on “over there”.

Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
My mom subscribed to Collier’s magazine, so she went with their offering. Britannica was the pricey brand.

It’s almost like he went to A&M and majored in Delusion instead of going to Wharton.

This was our home version of Google when I was a kid in the ‘50s & 60s. Read it for fun quite a bit, as there was a lot of interesting stuff in it.

If they were so small back before I was born, how did they manage to win the MNC in 1939? And those two prehistoric championships they claimed after they ran away from their Daddy and the Big 12 ?

It pays to be that old man Abe Simpson yelling at the clouds! Got two email replies that day, then late yesterday afternoon had a call from the substation postmaster who voiced her concerns and assured me that the new mailboxes should be installed in a week or two. This morning we were driving out to Mrs.Brat’s Dr. appointment and we absolutely shocked to see this…..- SEC Catch-all Thread

I imagine that burn care has advanced considerably from the late 1960s (like I posted above about the soldier friend) to the current level available. We thought that treatment was amazingly successful 57 years ago.- Jordan Shipley - Texas Athletics Hall of Honor
Ship is a tough guy and will make it, but may need a long time to recover. Mrs. Brat’s boyfriend from her high school and college days was shot down while piloting his chopper during Vietnam. Miraculously he survived, but with severe burns over extensive parts of his body, including his legs, arms, back & head. His hair, nose, ears, & lips were burned off, but fortunately he saved his eyes when he held his arm across them. He spent about two years at Brooke Army Hospital recovering - multiple surgeries and lying face down for most of that time. The surgeons also grew him a new nose by cutting a flap of flesh part way from his good arm and attaching it to his face. His arm had to be strapped in close position for a couple of months so the new strip could grow into place before being separated from the arm. It all worked out successfully, and he recovered enough to remain on active duty and eventually commanded an Army aviation batallion before retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel. Like Shipley, he was a good athlete in school, so that undoubtedly helped his recovery. Goods thoughts for Jordan and his family. 🤘🏻❤️🤘🏻- Tell Me About Texas a&m
That “dominant” period was based on cheating by a POS Jackie Sherrill crew who got them on double secret probation, narrowly missing the Death Penalty, severe sanctions including TV and bowl bans. Then he was fired and went on to MSU where they were also sanctioned for cheating. Yeah, something to be proud of by a fan base that still has no clue about their hypocritical, dirty history.- Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
An acquaintance posted this on another forum : 12:14 AM - Today#57 He’s such a proud sailor…🤣" Our son…the one in the Navy…got tagged for urinalysis monitor duty…what an honor. 😆" Here’s the text message I got from him about his experience. 😂"- Trivial Things That Make You Surly
I just emailed this to the USPS to complain about the lack of delivery service for the past 11 months. We’ll see how long it takes to get any competent action.- 2025 Citrus Bowl - Texas vs. Michigan - 2:00pm on ABC
