A new website to replace this blog http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
Here are a few beautiful photos of some fine warbirds of WWII.
This last photo of the Corsair is so beautiful I can't decide if it is a real photo or a painting.
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.

USS Shangri-la CV 38
A new website to replace this blog http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
I have received a few photos and 3 short videos of the USS Shangri-la CV 38 from an ex crew member who had to retire from the Navy during the Vietnam War. She was originally launched as an Essex class carrier but too late for much duty during WWII but was modernized during the years including the angled deck for jets.
