Ranokoa Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Happy D-Day day! In honor of those who were lost many decades ago on June 6th, 1944, i would like to say to all, Happy D-Day day! Although i LITERALLY have less than 1 minute left of it. Still, i would like to take this time to say that i am going to, at a later date unfortunetly, make a mod that will be in honor of D-Day vets, finish it within a year, and post it for downloads one year from now! again i say, Happy D-Day day, and i salute all who served, and all who were lost. Be well, sleep well, fight well, live long.~Ranokoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apocalypse1138 Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Good idea Ranokoa, no-one really told me it was D-Day. So I salute those who fought and died for us, that we might live a more peaceful life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranokoa Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 I am not a Nazi lover or condone or nothing.. but you also gotta feel for those on the german side the fought and lost. I mean, most of the infintry didnt even ACTUALLY know exactly what hitler was doing. Most of them were just brainwashed, and believed they were fighting for the greater good. It was a different time back then, and they were all being torn by the poverty of WWI, that when hitler rose to power and turned the economy around into a major uprise, they would pretty much follow him without question.. so i say this. To those Germans that fought, and fought for what they believed the greater good, that had no idea about the evils of what they were being played like a chess board to do, and believed truely what the propaganda said about the Allies, i do NOT solute you, but I feel for you. The Nazi's may have stood for evil, but it is almost impossible for an entire nation to be evil. For those that were innocent i respect. Most of them truely believed and were brainwashed to believe that the Allies were the evil ones, trying to kill their way of freedom. As a matter of fact, when the invaded Czechloslovakia, they were being told that the natives there were killing germans, when this was not true. But thats me, i have an open mind, and i see things from multiple perspectives. Although i must say only like 3% of the generals and up were innocent. The generals were fully aware of the situation, the only ones i solute were those of the Resistance, trying to assassinate hitler and bring an end to the murder. As a matter of fact, those involved in the plot Walküre are the only nazis EVER in all of germany to be hailed and respected, with honors annually each year in modernized Germany. A statue to their tribute lay in the capitol. Although i hate the nazi's, i have to feel for those who were forced and brainwashed into obedience, to die thinking it was for a different cause then reality.

Ranokoa Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 I'm a WWII enthusiast. By this, i mean WWII is my fascination on both the Allied and the Axis side. I like to learn everything i can about it, although i do not like that it happened, i am a history nerd, and WWII is my candy for knowledge. Every aspect is absalutely fascinating. Terrible, yes, but fascinating. how hitler was able to take over an entire country with nothing more than words and propaganda, from corporal to leader, how the allies responded and everything before and inbetween. So after many MANY years of being fascinated by and learning about WWII, i have formed multiple opinions and decisions. That said, i try to be realistic, practical, and unbias in my opinions, not letting modern day views and propaganda to cloud my judgement, but to form something completely unique outlook based soley on the facts. Thats how i operate on every aspect of life. thanks for the compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
