"I have dared" achievement!

[Franz Von Werra]

Yep, going there!  "I have dared!"  
Guessing some posters might be...    

RELAX!!!... it's ONLY history!  

From Wikipedia.org:
Rudolf Walter Richard Heß, also spelled Hess (26 April 1894 – 17 August 1987), was a prominent politician in Nazi Germany. Appointed Deputy Führer to Adolf Hitler in 1933, he served in this position until 1941, when he flew solo to Scotland in an attempt to negotiate peace with the United Kingdom during World War II. He was taken prisoner and eventually was tried for war crimes, serving a life sentence.

Just info:
10th of May 1941 Rudolf Hess flew from Germany to Scotland hoping to make peace with England.
22nd of June 1941 was Operation Barbarossa - German invasion of Russia... heavy stuff!
I read long ago, that England is supposed to release the official documents after 75years... so 1945 + 75 = 2025? Don't hold your breath though, super conspiracy stuff!

Fly a bf-110c to near an enemy HQ, bail out... and get "you have been captured" message to receive the "I have dared" achievement!
*Edit: spice it up? Have to stay under 5,000 feet, like his flight, for the whole flight!

Some days before the flight... (the guy on the right)


Hess took off at 17:45 on 10 May 1941 from the airfield at Augsburg-Haunstetten




Bailed out over Scotland...




And spent the rest of his life here...








"Ich hab's gewagt" = "I have dared"

The man was a complete nutcase - like most of that corrupt, evil, regime.

[Franz Von Werra]

Politics? EEEEK! run away!

More specific: fly from your team's HQ (a red-outlined base) to an just outside an enemy HQ and bail, then get 'captured' for achievement.
Would require refueling from a front line base probably.


Adding: in one tour, fly from your HQ to both other teams HQs for "Double Dare" achievement!

If it weren't for the political implications, I would think this would be a fun achievement to try and get. I don't think I see there ever being achievements that promote emulating Rudolf Hess or any other prominent Nazi though. Too much bad mojo there.

the op wants to be rewarded for bailing...

[2bighorn]

so 1945 + 75 = 2025?

 

[Franz Von Werra]

Good catch 2bighorn! England stated this stuff after the war tribunals... more around 1950... I forget when, not sure if Wikipedia mentions it or not.
I'm just 'rounding off' here... exact dates I don't know though...

Funniest thing is that the low self esteem troll guy that's always talking other people DOWN in almost his every post, mr gyrene81, did not catch this!  
'epic troll fail!'

gyrene81 gets the 'epic troll fail achievement' yes thx 2bighorn!  

[gyrene81]

funny thing is, when it comes to your posts, i'm usually right...

OP is confused about what trolling is and who is and is not a troll(er), ironically
while creating a troll thread (complete with anticipation of community ire).

PSA: ASD (Attention Starvation Disorder) can lead to tragic (albeit amusing)

        when raising them. Don't over-coddle them, per say, but help them
        develop both sufficient social skills and a sense of how to behave
        appropriately around others.

I wonder, exactly how close to being a Neonazi is Schlowy?

[Franz Von Werra]

The guy was on a mission of PEACE, and probably for alliance against the East, with which there continued a cold war for some 50 more after the war... k, thx!
Instead both countries were bankrupt, flattened and sank - by any measure.

You might negate, or reverse your questions!

[gyrene81]

bad news, germany was bankrupt when hitler took power and it wasn't in any better shape after he started a war...if good ole ruddy was indeed trying to make peace, being the person he was rumored to be, he would have used different methods.

[Franz Von Werra]

Imagine if he had made peace with England, maybe war with the Soviets, "Operation Barbarossa" wouldn't have happened at all?

Still, you '2nd guess' him... ok!
YOUR SUGGESTIONS for what he could have done to AVOID the hell that came after?

I'll suggest: maybe he should have tried to get to USA instead?

oh yes it would have. hitler had intentions on the oil fields when he made a pact of non aggression with stalin. the intent was to keep russia out of the conflict until he could get his armies established in eastern europe.

i'm not second guessing anything. you should do some research on old rudy the "fanatically loyal" nazi and see for yourself if "peace offering" truly makes sense. what he actually tried to propose was for england to let germany take over europe with a half baked promise that england would not be molested. it was an attempt to gain favor with the fuhrer. if hitler had known of his intentions he would have been executed.

[Franz Von Werra]

You will have zero SOURCES on what he said or wanted because HE WAS NEVER HEARD FROM AGAIN BY THE OUTSIDE WORLD.
Not for the rest of his life, and even after, no document or anything will be released until 2020s... at which point, due to falsifications, no live witnesses, nuthin, and all 75yrs too late, so anything released will have zero credibility.
