Re: Luftwaffe Myths

That's why Barbarossa is the most crucial turning point. With a clear back, the dream of German military planners since modern times, and access resources in the occupied territories, neutral or sympathetic countries, and even the Soviet Union, Germany could have waged war on Britain with completely different playing cards.

Nick, on your suggestion I bought Tooze, but if his thesis excludes ANY realistic scenario for German victory I am not going to agree with his work.

Besides there are more books of the genre (even have one or two still unread).

As for freezing the thread?

Why, perhaps splitting and/or moving parts of it. I hope there is room for more varied discussion on this board...
