[Milsurplus] Why Germany lost the war

[Bruce Gentry]

Sounds exactly like the school system in northeastern Tennessee I 
survived in the 1950s!  The 500KW transmitter at WLW was used for it's 
last time to transmit  to the German populace during the war. I wonder 
how many people saw what was coming and built carefully shielded or TRF 
receivers that could not be detected. Germany  is still  a touchy 
subject for many people, myself included. I don't think they have yet 
eliminated their worship of authority and quick aquiescence to it.
