This is the link to my new website.
I now have my new website on line. This blog will remain but there will be no more photos or stories posted on the blog.
Most of what is here will eventually be on the website and there is already new photos on the site.
.Thanks for your visits and I hope you enjoy my new website.
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.

Strange German Military Ceremony
A new website to replace this blog http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
This was sent to me as part of a package of photos from a Russian fan and the caption was all in Russian so I have no idea of what is happening here. But what is interesting is that there seems to be a young boy in a uniform along with some German NCOs and other troops watching.

Google problem
I am having a problem with Google the hosters of this blog so for now you can continue to visit my blog and look at or download all the photos you want or read the articles and essays about military history.
I will still be adding new material here for now but I am looking for a new blog hosting site where I will not have the same problems.
As soon as my new blog is ready you will see the announcement on this blog.

London views during WWII
A new website to replace this blog http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
Here are two distinctly different views of London during WWII. In the 1st photograph you see a smashed and burning London skyline view around the time of the Blitz and in the 2nd photo you can see that while it is still wartime with all those barrage balloons hovering over the city the Thames River barge traffic is moving along as if it was peacetime and there are no smoke smudges hanging over the city. While I have seen similar photos these two photos as far as I know have never appeared on any website in any language. As I have found out from some of my visitors and from a debate at a forum that I was reading the topic of these two photos should be about what a difference between Berlin and London around 1944/1945.

German Officers Executing Prisoners in WWII
A new website to replace this blog http://militaryhistoryofthe20thcentury.com/
Here is a very graphic photo of two German Army officers getting ready to execute two prisoners. They look to be mid ranking officers and behind them on the right there is a group of lower ranking officers and some NCOs looking on. At the far back of the photo there seems to be the commanding officer of this unit waiting for his orders to be carried out. This photo is not seen on many websites. This was sent to me by one of my Russian fans.
