Holy Flashback Batman! Jose Ferrer. :damn: I always thought he was Puerto Rican.

The other plane would be the Hughes XF-11, and the pilot would of course be one Howard Robard Hughes, Jr.

Based on your hint, I'd say the last one would have to be Cesar Romero, who had a huge long career in a great many films. One of my favorites was the 1955 flick The Racers, starring Kirk Douglas.

José Ferrer??? He bears NO resemblance to Cesar Romero and NEVER played The Joker.

Cesar Romero was one of the few movie stars who, during WWII, did NOT seek a commission. He wanted to be like the rest of the GIs. So, he enlisted in the Coast Guard, ultimately rising to the rank of Chief Boatswain's Mate. And he NEVER shaved that moustache, even while made up as The Joker. If you look closely, they applied the grease paint over the stache.

Sailor Steve, you get the cookie for the Cesar Romero question and the bottom half of the cookie WITH THE FILLING for the airplane question. Well done, sir.

'NOTHER QUESTION:

One of the strangest ideas come up with during WWII involved the use of Pykrete. What was Pykrete and what was the idea?

Pykrete is a composite material made of approximately 14 percent sawdust or some other form of wood pulp (such as paper) and 86 percent ice by weight. Its use was proposed during World War II by Geoffrey Pyke to the Royal Navy as a candidate material for making a huge, unsinkable aircraft carrier. Pykrete has some interesting properties, notably its relatively slow melting rate (due to low thermal conductivity), and its vastly improved strength and toughness over unmodified (crystalline) ice, actually closer to concrete. Pykrete is slightly more difficult to form than concrete, as it expands during the freezing process, but can be repaired and maintained from the sea's most abundant raw material: water.

The carrier concept was abandoned when the U-Boat threat receded and it was decided to concentrate on more conventional means of combating them.

Mythbusters did an episode on this very subject. They proved that it could have worked and would have been near impossible to sink. It would have also been the only ship in the tropics with the crew working in Parkas and long underwear! :D

Well done, sir. This makes up for the José Ferrer faux pas. Here's your cookie.

What is this? Where was it used? Was it successful?

Hmmm. Some sort of underwater anti-tank or anti-landing craft device?

You're on the right track, Torplexed.

Hey! Do you want an MP3 of The Chipmunks performing an Andrews Sisters song?

Nah...that's okay Captain S. I think this Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy will just content himself with gazing upon the Andrews' gams. :cool:

anti tank obstical... looked for anti tank obstial and got some info on something called a cointet element, the page also called it a belgian gate.

HEY!!!! Quit looking at them gams! I saw 'em first! (You ain't nivver heard the Sisters done this way.)

Well, Task Force. You got part of the question right. It IS a Belgian Gate. But, in order to get the entire cookie, you have to answer all of the question.
