Heres where you can buy it on amazon.. think its english subtitles though... anyways most people praise it as most accurate end of the war film... hell that article who was hitlers nurse says it's accurate and said she could have been one of them in the movie..

There is a great book (can't remember the name) that documents the last couple weeks of his life when he was in his bunker hiding out as well.

Eichman in Jerusalem is a good book if you want to learn about how the concentration camps and stuff like that was run.

WWII History was one of the most interesting classes I had in college.

There are lots of world events over the thousands of years which are pretty interesting but I consider a time like WWI, WWII some of the most interesting times ever probably because they hit closest to home being the most recent BIG world changing events... its not called WORLD war I & II for nothing.. and on the concentration camps i'v read and listened to lots of people from the "death camps" interesting and horrible stuff.. btw that book you refer to is probably on that adolfhiter.ws site i put up there.. that site has so much information on hitler, and the nazi's

a few look like it, did he really draw those or no? when did he live?

[surreelantra]

I think Seuss was anti-war. It just shocked me that the guy who drew kiddie books drew Hitler too. :eek:

We had to read Band of Brothers in class too, and Shames, one of the guys from the book came to our class and talked, I got his autograph in my copy of the book, that was pretty cool.

The Longest Day is a good book too, it's about the D-day invasion.

I'v seen all the movies of those books, all awsome :)

[shadow5606]

I think that's pretty cool that Seuss was a political activist. I'm very anti-war so I think that's awsome that the guy was out there doing something w/ his art

[Gun5]

oh god lets not turn this into a war/anti-war thread please :D I'm talking about wars that already happened!

This cartoon was propoganda to make sure people carpooled as much as possible in order to save on oil for use in the war... I always loved that one... along with the one that called the nazis babykillers and showed them with babies hanging off of their bayonnets.
