In May 1945 Soviet troops liberated the Danish island of Bornholm. The German garrison surrendered after a heavy bombardment of Bornholm's cities, i.a. Rønne. In April 1946 - 75 years ago - Soviet troops left Bornholm.

I have an uncle who was a marine during ww2 who fought in the pacific. This is a Japanese flag that he brought home, it has a few names written on it from some of the men that he served with. The names on the flag are:

 

Charles F Blanbo from Washington DC ( I think that's what the last name is, its kinda fuzzy)

 

Harold L Bachelor from Portland Oregon

 

Wm Roberts from Brookville Indiana

 

Frank Trusky from Akron Ohio

 

James E. Day from Huntsville Alaska

 

Douglas P. Searbrough from Monterey Tennessee

 

Harlan Bunnilk from Rockford Minnesota

 

John L. England from Jacksonville Texas

 

and my uncle Charles Fortney

 

I'm still trying to get more information like the unit he was in and if my uncle can remember where he got the flag from. He gave this to me about 25 or 30 years ago, it's been at my parents house till I asked them to send it to me.

Looking back 75 Years WW2. Normandy, France.

 

D-Day, June 6, 1944. WW2.

 

The Mulberry Harbour was built for D-Day in June 1944. The Mulberry Harbour’s purpose was to ease and speed up the unloading process so that Allied troops were supplied as they advanced across France after breaking out from Normandy. The success of D-Day could only be maintained if the advancing troops were supplied and more men landed. The Mulberry Harbour was one of the greatest engineering feats of World War Two.

Here are some of my new Japanese soldiers, including: Ghillie Sniper, Sgt. or a high rank soldier, a regular soldier, and a messed up pilot. I hope you guys enjoy!

Kaiser Shipyard No. 3 was one of four Kaiser shipyards in Richmond that built Liberty and Victory cargo ships and troop transports during WW2.

A candid black-and-white portrait of Seimon Pugh-Jones sitting by a classic military Jeep. Taken at a classic vehicle show.

 

Shot on a Canon 70D with a 50mm lens, I aimed for a timeless feel by using monochrome, enhancing the textures and contrasts to bring out the details of the uniform, the netted helmet, and the rugged Jeep.

 

Seimon Pugh-Jones also operates a mobile museum, preserving history through immersive experiences. To learn more about the mobile museum, please visit their Crowdfunder page:

I did it. I built a WW2 MOC. And there are probably more to follow since I’ve quite a few minifigs I’ve never used before.

 

The minifigs are from TMC and CitizenBrick.

The window technique is from Maxim Baybakov , please check out his stream.

A friend and I were at Bunker Bash 2009, the annual military rally at the former Government bunker at Kelvedon Hatch, near Brentwood in Essex. We had been undecided about going so arrived late and not in the best of weather.

 

We found an enthusiatic bunch of re-enactors and military vehicles owners covering both World Wars. One part of the site had been laid out as mock entrenchments with various national groups including British, US, German, Soviet and even Serbian forces dug-in.

Avion de légende, le Supermarine Spitfire conçu par l’ingénieur Reginald Mitchell à partir des résultats obtenus avec les hydravions de course vainqueurs de la Coupe Schneider, vola pour la première fois le 5 mars 1936. Capable d’atteindre 562 km/h à 5 000 m d’altitude, ses performances étaient exceptionnelles pour l’époque. Le 4 août 1938 les premiers exemplaires de série entrèrent en service.

Historique

 

Construit en novembre 1944 avec le numéro constructeur 6S-381758, le Spitfire FR Mk XIVe RM927 a été livré à la Royal Air Force en janvier 1945 et affecté au No 430 Squadron canadien basé à Eindhoven en Hollande où il vola avec le codes G9-X. Engagé au sein de la Second Tactical Air Force, le RM927 est un des rares Spitfire à moteur Griffon a avoir été engagé sur le front européen dans des missions de combat et de reconnaissance. Le 9 mars 1945, alors qu’il était piloté par le Flight Lieutenant Stevens, le RM927 fut endommagé par la Flak juste derrière le cockpit, ce qui entraîna son retrait du front.
