"History" accounts to the grand total of the entire sum of Human actions and knowledge since man first put his memories in cave paintings, and if you know and understand all that, then congratulations!

Sorry, I don't speak gobbledygook.

I'm just an individual who knows about WW2 because I lost 80% of all my family members in it.

You could say I have a vested interest in it!

I never denied that I was clueless about the secret operation "Operation Mincemeat"? So what?
But as I said your ability to Google some obscure event is pretty sweet. Nice!

That's all superficial basic stuff, easily found on Google.

Care to try again?

Two simple question, you can easily find on Google;

1) Why did Operation Neptune in Normandy take place on 6 june 1944 and not a day earlier?

2) Why did Operation Market Garden fail and where exactly did the allied convoy get stuck?

You've got three minutes... any reply after three minutes have passed confirms that you haven't got a clue and do require Google


Your inability to convince anyone of your claim of a tiny "famous" event is noted.

That "tiny event" caused Hitler to move the bulk of his troops to Greece and allowed the allies to invade Sicily with minimal casualties. You really are clueless, aren't you?

Google must be your best friend
