Official credit issues aside, at the end of the day, I'd imagaine that's what really matters most to those that were there. |
If it is to be taken that the act of going behind enemy lines and putting
your life on the line for the cause of freedom 6000 miles from home and risking counter attack by revealing your presence by sinking
an enemy ship. And going through all the perils of process involved in said attack. then yes.
But when we say they know what they did I think something of the above gets lost in that. We as a planetery community of humans need to remember the insitituitional knowledge of the second world war. and we need be honest and objective about it if were to utilize its lessons.
it is frightening to look at an educated people in an advanced industrial democracy swayed to extremism by the persuasive powers of manufactured
consent. is their one among us who thinks that cant happen in this day and age.?
We need to remember the truth not the official story.
Just my opinion again.
