Not a canoe--more of a favor for a dear friend:

My friend Mike is in the beginning phases of putting a documentary together on the Nuremberg raid. I'm not a war buff, but it seems interesting.

@nurembergraid (should be interesting to see it develop).

I just figured I'd put this on GRM's radar. No ulterior motive.

Yes, keep us posted. We must fight the Ancient Aliens scourge!

PBS has been showing Nazi Mega Weapons which is a pretty interesting series.

An interesting point about this from my perspective. I am pretty knowledgeable about WWII and particularly WWII aviation, and I don't remember reading / seeing anything about the Nuremberg Raid, which just makes it more interesting to me.

Of course, I was never a big fan of the English bombing campaign. It seemed to me to be more civilian terrorism then strategic bombing. I mean, heck, with the Norden bombsight and daylight, the US still had a hard time hitting rather large buildings (I think the circular error probability was around 200 yards)

Cool stuff. I find it intriguing to hear the accounts and stories from outside the usual sources and locations. My neighbor fought in serbia and got to spend some quality time in a german prison camp.
