Charming!

So

It should be a giant white on black wargame counter. With an outrageously high attack value.


Not to start an unnecessary shitstorm, but wasn't the Galician division a little different from other Waffen SS units?  I thought they were a bit less politicized maybe not quite as brutal as others.  Also IIRC they were more or less conscripts rather than volunteers.

IIRC, it was one of those late-ish in the war SS divisions that was only good for shooting partisans.

I need to get out my books on the SS divisions to see exactly.

off the top of the head: late war and was destroyed at Brody.

Okay, so the plane allegedly taking Yanu to Kharkov is actually headed for... Sochi???

That happened to me once. Wanted to go to Grand Junction, the guy on the tarmac pointed at the wrong plane, ended up in Texas.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Why is it in English?

And since when has purple replaced blue ink as the ink of diplomatic record?  What are they, Japanese school girls?

I'm shocked the Polack could write his own name, let alone sign in the proper spot.

A 21 years old girl who was a volunteer medic also got shot and killed, managed to post "I am dying" on Twitter before it.





Thankfully, she was later upgraded to stable condition after undergoing surgery.
