But that's part of the fun - see post 2999. And Orm got one of my questions on second guess - when I did a Norwegian destroyer.

JeffroK -> RE: OT - WWII quiz (8/21/2012 10:18:57 AM)

No Commonwealth Division fought in Africa, Italy & France.

Closest would be The New Zealand Division which fought in Africa & Italy, 1st Canadian Div fought in France & Italy.

NO, a totally incorrect question.
51 Highland was part of the British Army and included a large number of English (and Welsh & Irish) soldiers.
It never fought as a Motorised Division beyond the normal British Infantry Division standards.




JeffroK -> RE: OT - WWII quiz (8/22/2012 12:01:41 AM)

All the King's Enemies.

What unit of the British & Commonwealth Armies, you can go down to battalion level, fought against the 4 main opponents in WW2.




michaelbaldur -> RE: OT - WWII quiz (8/22/2012 12:44:46 AM)


who is the fourth opponent ????




JeffroK -> RE: OT - WWII quiz (8/22/2012 1:35:22 AM)

The Vichy French.

Commonwealth units fought campaigns against them in Syria, Madagascar, NW Africa & West Africa. In addition the Vichy French bombed Gibraltar a number of times.




michaelbaldur -> RE: OT - WWII quiz (8/22/2012 2:24:09 AM)


ah off cause. don't see them as a major power. more like a German minor .. haha

but off cause you are right
