Did you know that in ww2 american paratroopers had fingernails halfway down their fingers. oOo:

Wow, that is quite amazing.

If u look at the pic every finger has that, theyve just tried to disguise it by smearing camo paint over the part where the fingernails show through. HMM camoflauged hands...how useful. eek:

LOL just shows how lazy eala are. Even in multiplayer the original moh when u played it if u seen a guy reloading he would actually reload the gun properly, in spearhead if u see someone reload they generally just jiggle the gun about and its magically reloaded.

Other noteworthy stuff.

The ppsh smg was apparrently so small that a guys hand could virtually engulf the back of the weapon. In real life though it was as big as, or bigger than a thompson m1a1 smg.


[img]http://homepage.ntlworld.com/gerald.marley/Other%20pics/ppsh-bolt.jpg[/img]

When reloading the ppsh they didn't actually pull the bolt back to unlock the drum magazine, instead they just pretented to as you can see here, its all about visual effect.

The soviets were very useful at handing out the sniper variations of the mosin nagant to americans who just happened to be on the soviet front. oOo:

And finally we se that not only was the svt-40 carried so it was tilted to an angle but we see that as with the ppsh the bolt didn't need to be drawn back to reload, instead you just pretented to do it and it would magically work.



oOo:

LOL - This is great....Keep them coming..... biggrin:

03-16-2003 01:30 PM

one more thing

They sent 1 one man into the heart of Berlin to look for a pilot and ends up winning the war

Also, Soviets speak pretty good english

03-16-2003 01:31 PM

one more fact, soldiers in WWII always waxed up their butts incase they got shot which forced them to bend down, so they slid away from danger... biggrin:

03-16-2003 01:33 PM

Bullets were weak back in WWII, so it took about 10 MP44 shots to kill, while the butts of gun were made out of gold and killed men in 3 easy blows!

The germans also had their own version of the philadelphia experiment which ended up the same way as the american one with troops melded into walls and steel. eek:

03-16-2003 04:32 PM

the philidelphia experiement oOo: . i remember reading a bunch of stuff about it, crazy stuff.

this is true: they experiemented with lsd during ww2 as a weapon. they were going to spray it on the enemy, get them all fucked up, and then kill them.

when soldiers got bored, they liked to gather in the church & make large towers

some soldiers liked to smile when they got hit by a jeep at full speed.

with the help of a small explosive, jeeps could be propelled across the desert
