AFTER the war, they were, and they got all the german girls minus the blooding fighting. thats why mike powell suked anus, he ran away after blowing up the machine gun factory, and never got laid by a german.

Why do SOO many games end with you running out of a factory/facility type place thats coming down around ur ears? MOHAA, Halo, JKIII, I was afriad HL2 would have that, too.

The lead up from 33 to 39 would have been so great that most people of age would have gone to war at the time. There would have been reports from Germany often for those 6 years after Hitler took power until he invaded Poland so people would be raring to go by the time war came. And that was the case. Recruiters were packed when war was declared in Canada. I'm sure most able bodied people were trying to go.

1/10 Canadians served over seas during that time. That is a huge number.

My grandfather did the same thing but actually got in forged his birth certificate and was sent to the pacific theater as a radio man. Then went to work for Ratheon as a missile technician biggrin:
