Why is "German" and "Luftwaffe" seen as synonomous with "Axis"?

[GRUNHERZ]

The railway quote refers to the the 109E pilots resentment of carrying bombs during the latter part of BoB. The bombs were sent over in crates marked "Im Auftrage der Reichsbahn" and the pilot IIRC Waldemar Wubke commented that bombs should only be carried by bombers or trains not by fighters.

I hope my clarification of the qoute has been sufficient, nonetheless Seeker what you are insinuating is really a cheap shot extremist statement that acts to attack people who choose to fly German planes. I feel foolish to say this but it really is kinda insensitive (sorry)  because it assumes AH LW fliers are myabe all some sort of nazis or something. And you should perhaps consider why you wrote that or retracting that statement or editing it from your post as its really quite innapropriate.

thanks

We won, after all  

My country flew G-10s. We lost, but we shot down some Yaks and Las before that

Plus the top Croatian ace has more kills than the top USAAF and RAF aces...   hehe

wtf are talking about?

Karnak started a thread stating his pet peaves related to a post I made. I responded to that thread.

Why are you here?

You are irrelevent to this thread and have nothing to offer to it.

Why waste your time.

All your other post on this bbs are all nonsense as well. What are you contributing to this game?

Quake should fit real nice with your personnality.

I spent 6 years in military bud how do you know where I've been.

Why is that relevent to a game?

You have issues bud I wonder why you bring them here?

*A sarcastic comment originating when Wübke was ordered to fly Jabo missions during the Battle of Britain. The inscription was found on the sides of boxcars carrying bombs. Wübke felt bombs should be delivered by rail cars and bombers and not by fighters.
Wübke used this inscription throughout the war.

Little histroy lesson for you. While your at take a look at the real JV44 Platzschutzstaffel (they didn't fly 262s so your link as well s your post are irrelevent)guess how those pilots got there and it wasn't because there Nazis moron..........

You typical ignorant dweeb speaking out his arse...........

I'll bet you I've been out of the US more times then you've left your back yard.........

but again it goes back why you waste your time? Whats your point?

The pansies couldn't even handle a little ground pounding?  I was only joking when I called them girliemen before....

[Seeker]

Because, Wotan, your buttons are so easy to push.

Thanks for the correction Grun. It is, after all, a question of attitude, is it not?

[lazs1]

Yes, it is rude and incorrect to refer to luftwhiners as "axis".   The way I do it is... Nazis and nips/japs... everyone knows who you are talking about.  It simplifies things greatly.... And yes.... I would say that of all the groups in AH the nazis need the most training.

I'd often wondered about that sig Wotan. Knowing you, I refused to assume it had anything to do with the slaughter of non-combatants.. and thanks for the history lesson.

On the other side of the coin, I suppose quite a few others wondered also.. not surpising at all someone came to the wrong conclusion.

<S!>

[Wotan]

Pray not for an end to the slaughter...but for VICTORY!!!  

Has nothing to do with killing civilians........ wtf

I'll have to find the exact quote but it has to do with wwi.........

Several school children in germany were asked by there pasture to pray for the soldiers at the front.........

one child said he prayed for peace...

one prayed for the ded and dying .......

another prayed for the war to end....

well the pasture asked 1 child what he prayed for..........

the child said "I pray not for an end to the slaughter but for victory........."

the theme was that once you commit to war then there is no option but victory........
else all those who sacrificed died for nothing...........

but given the small but vocal simple minds in AH i guess it oughta be expected.........

The fact remains this a game. How someone (me or anyone) chooses to play it is no real reflection on themselves as a real person..........

I don't need to justify anything to you all but keep what happens here in perspective.........

and if my sig is used to reflect upon my real person then what does this say about this moron


 

And this:

"Im Auftrage der Reichsbahn (By order of the State Railway)"

Refers to the Florida state railway, I hope, and not to the German state railway's most documentated and involuntary "customers"?

 

enough from me

LOL Woton... you need not justify a damn thing to me..  or anybody else! Smile buddy.. you just educated a whole buncha guys; including me... an intresting look into the LW mindset during the BoB.. those pilots knew what the real score was over england, and it was the first inkling a lot of LW pilots got of how messed up their high command was.

I know well the "FOR VICTORY" post.. always evokes a rueful smile from me.

The "by order of the state railway" siggy was what had me wondering. A huge number of people have seen the holocaust documentaries... that phrase is very prominent there, and it could be easy for someone to draw the wrong conclusion.

Do yer thing bud, and don't let the noises from the peanut galley bug yah..
