| Fun Facts:
___
* The US Army had more ships than the US Navy.
* More Germans died in Russia from the cold than they did fighting, a lot more.
* When allied armies reached the Rhine the first thing men did was pee in it. This was pretty universal from the lowest private to Winston Churchill (who made a big show of it) and Gen. Patton (who had himself photographed in the act).
* The youngest US serviceman was 12 year old Calvin Graham, USN. He was wounded in combat and given a Dishonorable Discharge for lying about his age. (His benefits were later restored by act of Congress) ___
Hope you enjoyed learning about this if you didn't know it already. Please comment. |

| did those landing craft count as "ships"? "When allied armies reached the Rhine the first thing men did was pee in it. This was pretty universal from the lowest private to Winston Churchill (who made a big show of it) and Gen. Patton (who had himself photographed in the act). The youngest US serviceman was 12 year old Calvin Graham, USN. He was wounded in combat and given a Dishonorable Discharge for lying about his age. (His benefits were later restored by act of Congress)" I did not know those two ^^^ Pretty nifty... and random lol. make for nice dinner conversation  |

| Well, some people start growing pubic hair early, and become taller earlier (puberty), and besides, he probably wanted to fight to show off or act big. Anyways. Yeah he was wounded in battle, but it is funny, that they didn't notice he was only 12. lol

| Pubic hair = Hair around your ... crotch.
You get it when you go through puberty but the hair on your face that develops is called
Facial Hair.
Pubic hair on face = What sort of human are you? |

| Looks like people came in here to get their +1's..
Back on topic though, I didn't know about some of those facts about WWII. However, the German soldiers fact dying more because of the conditions..I was familiar with.
Nice research, and good job. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ "It's a silent murder, it's a grave that sings your song."----------------  ----------------  ----------------  |
