Yep. Despite me being a member of a military equipment forum (sort of) and a WW2 game brought me here, I'm surprisingly clueless about about that conflict. Half the bits about WW2 you throw at me will be new.
I know how a tiger looks like from Kelly's heroes, I know about D-Day from the Longest day. I don't know the difference between a Huricane and a Spitfire.
I also knew about 5:1 ratio for Shermans to take down a Tiger, I knew about the air cover being the biggest enemy. I never knew that German tanks were to complex to be really reliable and valuable. Never knew they were made by small workshops rather than in large factories and I never knew that they were a rare sight on the western front.
So yeah, that article showed me something new
