![]() June 6, 1944 an excerpt from living with the enemy the story of the german occupation of the channel islands, 1940-1945. "In Jersey, Guernsey and Sark people could hardly fail to realize that some gigantic military operation was afoot. All night long wave after wave of planes flew over the islands toward the French mainland. Peter Frampton (his real name, folks. -p) of Jersey was at a friend's hotel in Archirondel on the evening of June 5th. There was this big drone which came up to quite a crescendo as the planes came near. There must have been hundreds, probably thousands as well as gliders going over. Then the German ack-ack batteries all over the island opened up. They let rip with everything they had and the ground really shook. We thought - this is it. The battle of Normandy is about to begin." i just couldn't let this date pass without some sort of comment. i'm kooky like that. one more thing. can we all stop comparing those we don't like to hitler? really. was (is?) saddam hussein a bad guy? you bet. (he was our bad guy, but you know what i mean.) was he "the new hitler"? not even close. is george dubya a bad guy? absolutley. "hitleresque"? hardly. though they both have fascist tendencies and you would never want to have either one of these murderous pieces of shit to dinner, neither of them are in the same league as the mustachioed one from hell. are we all clear on that one now? posted by downtown | 1:55 PM |
