I guess you either don't pay attention is school or your history teacher is a fucking moron, or whoever set the curriculum is a fucking moron.
At my school they mentioned the Battle of the Bulge in enough detail to know why they named it that.

Schools are getting more and more to where they less and less time teaching and more and more time on sports, political correctness, and turning the kids into sniveling,grabasstic civilian messes just like the school board members[/quote:5aa69]

history teachers have nothing to do with this. they are not obligated to teach you this type of stuff like why it's named like that. heck my teacher never taught me anything about omaha beach. that dosnt mean i dont know a shit load about it. you people have alot of advantages. the internet and tv. books too. use them

[quote="Cpt. Zapotoski":a419b]Stryker, you also have to think about what the teachers are told to teach. My 11th grade History teacher loves WWII and Vietnam, but he couldn't mention a few battles because the Board of Education requires him to touch on so many subjects in our history in so little time. Sure, he'd most likely go through ever major battle and explain what took place... but he didn't have the time to accomplish that.

See, we take a test called the "Regents" in NY state. The History Regents has a set curriculum and my history teacher has that. So it would be useless to teach kids about "Battle of the Buldge" when they really don't need to know about it. And again, he has not allot of time to teach what "needs" to be teached.[/quote:a419b]

I am in accelerated 9th grade world history... We only basically learn about European,Middle Eastern and Chinese civilizations. We talked about African and South American civilizations for a combined 2 days. They just cover whats on the regents they dont have any time for other things.

we covered WWII in US History.
I really think that that is where WWII belongs because it's the war that led to the maturation of the USA as a world player (wheras before we just stuck to our hemisphere)

true, but you know how self-centered yanks are biggrin:

During the battle of the Bulge wasnt their a mass retreat of the German Forces when they got trpped in that bulge and the allied forces surrounded them. The only chance of escape was through that thin gap between the allied forces and resulted in a massacre of the Germans?

I believe that was the escape from the Falaise pocket in Normandy after Patton...well...Pattoned biggrin: his way across the countryside and left the Germans with Brits in their front and Patton in their rear evil:

I had a bit of an extreme liberal for a world history teacher. she taught us everything leading up to WWII with the next chapter being the actual war. She told us that she hated war and wouldnt teach us about it. All we were required to learn was the mojor turning points of the war and then we moved on to immediately after VE and VJ day. A huge disappointment, but it didnt stop me from learning as much as I could. My dad had a bunch of books on WWII. Mostly pacific and centered around naval and air battles. I never paid much attention to the european war until MOH sparked my interest again.

Right, for fuck sake.

Someone comes here to ask a question?

Answer it or don't fucking bother to reply to the thread.

I didn't know what the battle of the bulge was exactly. Just like I don't know what my next door neighbour's name is.

I doubt I ever will know what their name is until I ask them myself.

-knock knock- Hello, I'm your next door neighbour... How are you? Nice to meet you... What's your name?

Neighbour: its really sad you dn't know what my name is, yet you live in the same block of appartments as me

-slam door-


You fucking retards. No one knows anything until someone tells them. If everyone had the "OMG I DON'T BELIEVE YOU DON'T KNOW THAT NOOB" attitude we'd all still be swinging in fucking trees.

Thanks to those who actually had the decency to reply with helpful answers.

It's quite ignorant to ask such a quesiton when you are better off searching for it on your own and getting an even better answer. intelligence is weak with him!

hahah true. so true

It's quite ignorant when you don't even know what "ignorant" means.

Lacking education or knowledge.
Showing or arising from a lack of education or knowledge: an ignorant mistake.
Unaware or uninformed.

Nowhere in that description does it say: Lacking desire to find out things for oneself by searching online using google.

This is a discussion forum. About a game that has a WWII theme.

You'd hazard a fucking guess that some of the members here would know something about that war. And, as I can see quite a few good answers in this thread, I would hazard a guess that I am right.

My point is that the negative replies are belligerant, pointless and self-gratifying.

If you don't have anything positive to say then don't bother fucking saying it.

Anything else is just spam.
