GreyKnight Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Got this from a post of the Zoo. 5 pages of AMAZING WWII photos... http://forum.sli-team.ru/index.php?s=5b ... =1540&st=0 Quote
Blairgowrie Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Some outstanding footage there. Good find sir. Quote
Enforcer57 Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Ill say, ............is that Finnish? Some Ive never seen. I think the one of the panzers and infantry charging the soviet infantry may be staged, but its still pretty good. Some great stuff. Quote
Blairgowrie Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 I think you are right about some of it being staged Carl. Can't image how that body got slumped over the gun barrel of the half track unless it was placed there. Quote
1. DDz Quorum Pooka Posted September 21, 2007 1. DDz Quorum Posted September 21, 2007 First thing that came to my mind, was on the bomber shot from head-on. In todays world would that bombadier have to go outside to smoke. Pooka Quote
GreyKnight Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 Don't be rediculous Pooka! In today's world, there would be a 2nd, unladen, bomber flying right behind this one. So the bombardier could jump across to in order to have a smoke in that one. This 2nd bomber would be covered in warning signs to warn people of the danger of smoking this bomber contains. It would also have a loud tannoy that it would use just as they crossed enemy lines, in order to alert the enemy that these other aircraft are armed and dangerous and could do damage to people on the ground. Bored at work I am.... Is it POETS day? Quote
Cold_Gambler Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Nice find (that P51 with the cowling off has been added to the HDD) I've seen some of these before but this one is new to me and I like it especially: Though I suspect it's been staged as well, given that the poster on the wall. Quote
GreyKnight Posted September 21, 2007 Author Posted September 21, 2007 Really CG? I fell it's not staged. It must just be the lawyer instincts in you. Quote
Rattler Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Nice find (that P51 with the cowling off has been added to the HDD) I've seen some of these before but this one is new to me and I like it especially: Though I suspect it's been staged as well, given that the poster on the wall. The Japanese did alot of these kind of pictures as well. Quote
Cold_Gambler Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 I like this one- found on the B-17 entry for Wikipedia: Are those cool propwash-cut contrails or what? Quote
JensenPark Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 BG off to fill another hole in his yard... Quote
Blairgowrie Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 Yes, I am much taller than that little Ruskie Runt. Quote
JensenPark Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 that was about your height in 1944 when this photo was taken though. Quote
