The WWII German technology was decades ahead of the rest of the world. Had Hitler used their technology for peaceful purposes, they would have been an economic powerhouse.

It truly is amazing...
And yes, I have read a few books on the "whole 3RD Reich"
What I find most fascinating was (is) Hitler was being administered Methamphetamine shots.
**(Many prominent people of that time received them)
Regulary!
The Down Fall was no-one was questioning his health both Physically and Mentally
(Why would you?)
He had signs on Parkinsons and Schizophrenia, most probably due to the years of Methamphetamine shots...
He hid his left arm from public image, it trembled.
Under proper leadership, you are correct RC, Germany could have been a different country with a different outcome.

Wars of old were invade a territory, conquer it militarily and take over & that was the thinking of Hitler. Today, there is no need for large countries to fight militarily; rather one country can do quite a job on another country economically.

The ground troops that faced the Russians on the Eastern front took Meth given to them by the army, to give them the ability to go longer without sleep, gave extra strength and a mental feeling of invulnerability.

I think I've posted some RC stuff in the past. I never got into it, but my father does. I also cover (take photos) a Giant Scale RC event each year on Memorial Day weekend for their website.

Cool ones. My gramps used to show us pictures like this. His ship on that deployment was sunk and he spent a couple of weeks on Espiritu Santo waiting(aka drinking and watching the planes) for a ride back to port..
