1. Hint, it was von Stauffenberg!!
I want to see it, but on video. I have watched the History and NatGeo stuff on Valkyrie though. An interesting story.
:hi:

2. I love history
I visted Plotensee Prison in Berlin.

That's where most of the conspirators and their families were put to death.

They were hanged with piano wire :scared:

3. When I'm rich, I'm taking a drive across Europe.
I am starting at Normandy, through Bastogne, to Berlin. I'm a WWII geek from way back. Living near Pearl Harbor will do that. ;)

Yeah. Piano wire. :scared: If only Von Stauffenberg had put the second brick of explosives in the briefcase...
