What If?......

[Andrew]

The first Lancasters to come off the production line were fitted with the ventral turret , it was subsequently removed .

 

[MP-Willow]

Andrew, The RAF should have kept the vertral turret!! It would have helped on the daylight raids and the night. Too meny Lancs went down to attack from below.

But I am a lover of the USAAF B-24!

 

[cheddar cheese]

bronze, the lancs got an incompetent hard drive again 8)

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Oh god - gone all floppy again has it?

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

nice one mate but seriously now lets go back to the what ifs

 

[bronzewhaler82]

What if....Hitler had children

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

i would be one of them

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Hey, don't tick me off for wandering off topic and then do it yourself! seriously....what would the future hold if the Allies stormed Hitlers bunker at the end of 1945 to find a few babies that belonged to Hitler and Eva Braun...would they be exectuted and hidden from history for no-one to ever know about or would they be taken away and fostered and never told who they were - or simply raised in Germany fully aware of who they were..surely children of such a murderous animal would inherit some of his...ahem 'characteristics'

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

hitler was probably too old to have hanky-panky (being 50 in 1939) AND i believe that they would NOT be executed, rather given to a foster family aware of what they had on their hands

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Actually men are still able to have babies in their 80's mate 8) - Charlie Chaplin had his last kid when he was 82 (or there abouts)

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

but did chaplin have parkinsons and severe stress and other mental probs? NO! and i knew aboot the able-to-have-babies-even-at-a-very-old-age thing

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

ok here's one, what if the sausage hadn't been invented, would we have won the war?

 

[MP-Willow]

So what what ifs do you want? try this one, if the British and German's had not started to bomb eachother's town's to ash and kept to military targets would that have made a difference? Would the war had ended differently?

 

[kiwimac]

I do not believe that England could be England without the sausage!

As for what might have happened if the various sides had stuck to military targets. The Germans would have over-powered the English quite quickly as they were in fact quite close to doing.

Kiwimac

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

are you saying that we are weak without sausages?

 

[MP-Willow]

Kiwimac: that would have been the best for Germany, well if that and stay out of Russia as long as posible. Stalin was going to move West, but he needed more time. Hittler should have stayed out of military matters. Or better yet just out of everything!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

it was definatly a huge mistake to invade russaia..................

 

[MP-Willow]

But Russia is so tempting, all that land materials, and the hate shock: But every army has seemed to fail, going West to East!

 

[bronzewhaler82]

but did chaplin have parkinsons and severe stress and other mental probs? NO! and i knew aboot the able-to-have-babies-even-at-a-very-old-age thing

He might have done, besides i should think most 80 year olds would have trouble getting it up anyway...so there is no reason to beleive that hitler wasn't capable of having children...other than the fact that he was a pervert who liked little boys (hence his interest in the young boys of the Hitler youth ) his relationship with Eva Braun was just a front so his true colours weren't exposed....

If Britain and Germany had stuck to military targets and acted first hand, Britain would have won. If we were dropping bombs instead of leaflets in 1939, and invaded while they were in Poland Germany would have been defeated quickly.
The only reason bombing became harder is because of the increased AA defences which were in place due to German realisation that their AA defences were inadequete if the British could get through to drop leaflets.

The British at the start won in Norway, took Cities back in France and only collapsed when they realised the Belgians and French were no help. And through lack of supplies from Britain, had we been gearing up for war properly instead of allowing Chamberlain to have his way Germany would have been defeated in 1939.
