Bio sam ubeđen da sam ovo postovao, ali eto izgleda da nisam.

Sve u svemu, na linku - http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/ww2.html možete da vidite gomilu sjajnih fotki iz WWII

World War II is the story of the 20th Century. The war officially lasted from 1939 until 1945, but the causes of the conflict and its horrible aftermath reverberated for decades in either direction. While feats of bravery and technological breakthroughs still inspire awe today, the majority of the war was dominated by unimaginable misery and destruction. In the late 1930s, the world's population was approximately 2 billion. In less than a decade, the war between the nations of the Axis Powers and the Allies resulted in some 80 million deaths -- killing off about 4 percent of the whole world.

This series of entries will last from June 19 until October 30, 2011, running every Sunday morning for 20 weeks. In these photo essays, I hope to explore the events of the war, the people involved at the front and back home, and the effects the war had on everyday lives. The entries will follow a roughly chronological sequence, with some broader themes (such as "The Home Front") interspersed throughout. These images will give us glimpses into the real-life experiences of our parents, grandparents and great grandparents, moments that shaped the world as it is today. I hope to be able to do justice to this important story in this large-photo narrative format and invite you to join me for the next 20 Sundays.

Ono što je kul jeste što slika nije opisana kao "Nemački vojnik drži pušku" već ide "Nemački vojnik drži pušku tu i tu, zbog toga i toga, a samo dva dana pre toga se dogodilo to i to pa je on zbog toga sada tu" :)

Evo par random odabira:

mogao sam i u onaj topik sa vicevima, al bolje ovde:)

Why French tanks have rear mirors?

So they can see what's going on in the front lines.

How many gears does a French tank have?

4 reverse and 1 forward, in case the enemy attacks from the rear.

How can you identify a French Infantryman?

Sunburned armpits.

How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?

Nobody knows, it's never been tried.

What´s in the description of a french rifle on ebay?

Never used. Has only been dropped one time.

Haha, baš je juče u 30 rock bila dobra fora za francuze ...

To je inače serija o programu na NBC-ju i glavnom direktoru NBC-ja kojeg glumi Alek Boldvin. I onda on priča ukupno o NBC-ju kao mreži televizijskoj i kaže:

- We produce more failed pilots than the French Air Force.
