Here is a video of a flight in a B-17 bomber at the 2011 Oshkosh Airshow by one of my fans.
Many thanks to you Brian. There will also be many photos from this air show to be posted soon.
This blog is dedicated to the military history of the 20th Century. While it mostly concerns WWII, I will write about stories from the Boer War to Gulf War 1 Here you may find unusual photos of military interest and unusual but true stories; from the strategic, the tactical and personal events. I will also review and critique the occasional military book and/or video.

Odd looking Russian armor
This blog is now a new website and can be found at http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
Here are a few odd looking Russian tanks and an armored truck.
These four tracked tanks were designed for fighting in marshy areas.

Su-27 very low fly by
Here is an incredible photo of a Su-27 flying on the deck. He is so low if he even blinks for a moment it could be game over.

Armor Destroyed in Combat
This blog has now been changed into a new website. Most of what has been posted here will be on the new site and much more to come. Visit http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
Here are some more photos of destroyed tanks and other armor that I got from one of my Russian blog fans. Seems to be mostly German armor but there might be one photo of a British tank. It is hard to tell when some of these are so completely destroyed.
And I have not seen most of these on line at English sites.
