Also beeing stationed as a german troop in Sweden/norway would be nice, all they basicly suffered from was the strange day/night circling...
In fact, Germany lost more soldiers there that went into psychological treatment, than against the enemy or the resistance :p

Id like to be a POW in America! :-D

Or Japanese, and i'd get two katanas and an emergency suicide bomb

But seriously, id like to be a Volkstrumm member, not only am I old enough, but the idea of resistance defending against amazing odds no matter how horrible the situation is just puts me in awe.

Re: Your role in WW2.
 

Hehehe. True.
I belive a number between 200000-300000 lucky German soldiers were stationed there right to the end of the war. Waiting for an invasion that never came...

You'll be dead before supper-time, kiddo.

Devils brigade (1st Special Service Force), a Canadian-American commando unit fighting alongside each other in Italy (Naples, Foggia, Anzion, Rome-Arno) during 1943-44. Hilltop hopping basicly, taking out German fortifications. Devils Brigade, especially the Canadians of Devils brigade were known for leaving notes attatched to German corpses by knife for the enemy to find to demoralize the enemy. A truly great force.

i'd do what my grandpappy did: stateside navy recruiter! :naughty:

My trusty panzerfausts will kill those ruskies! :-D

My string of thought is practically the same. I think of tank-hunting as a game of hide and go seek combined with elements of tag.

They need to give the panzerfaust kit an MP40...

I have not been to war, but I am smart enough to know know that comparing war to a game will get you killed in a second.

Dr.Goebbels would send your Volkssturm unit headlong into a giant russian advance, misinformed, undergunned and under fire. Volkssturm was a death sentence but none the less a noble cause which i would fight in to defend my country if my country needed it. Canada all the way bitches.

Re: Your role in WW2.
 

I realise that, but Hitler Youth really did think of tank-hunting as a game, and strangly were very successful.

No, do not think of me as an immature little trigger happy child who just wants to go to war to shoot people. Ive read enough books (thick books, not picture ones!) and I know its horrors.

Re: Your role in WW2.
 

I woulda joined Princess Patricias Canadian Light Infantry (who are currently serving in afghanistan) or Lord Strathcona's horse (tank), or maybe been an AA gunner in the royal navy like my grandpa was :D
