True.... we were very behind at the start of World War II. We had something called the Great Depression that we were dealing with. Our efforts were on fixing our own problems first.

Whatever technical term you want to use, selling, lending, leasing... it was all part of the same Act.

And yes, we developed the Manhattan Project out of fear the Germans were going to build the first atomic bomb. But I guess we got to it first... and the rest is history.

Lets not forget the Commandoes knocking out the heavy water plants in Norway, luckily for the world id say

UK is full of good history, when i metal detect i find all kinds, parts from a Lancaster bomber were the last bits i found (it crashed into a hotels garden in 1942)

I'm not denying the UK is full of good, strong history!!!

Some of my all time favorite people in history are from the UK... Winston Churchill, Thomas Paine, and Charles Darwin!!!

This is way more fun to talk about than vintage collecting!!!!

How cool is that!!!!

A post about Star Wars Beer turns into a history debate!!!!!!

Not that I don't like history, but I'd rather get back to talking about beer!

Beer wins for me every time...
