 |  Best WW2 Action Shot What's the best action WW2 picture you guys have found on the web? It can be anything from soldiers in combat, attacks or a ship sinking. Or it could be just a cool WW2 picture. If you guys have any cool shots could you please, post them on this thread? Thanks! Here are some actions shot I've come across on the web: 1) Blücher sinking in Norway on April 9, 1940 2) Wilhelm Gustloff passes by Artillerieschulfschiff Brummer sometime in 1938 or 1939.

| I can see the first two shots, Slipdigist but for some reason I can't see the rest. I click on the attachments and it says they're invalid. I don't know if its something wrong with my computer or who knows? I'd like to see them, they sound pretty cool.

You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?
