Hi Chelmsfordthescapegoat
Throughout the history and the military history in particular !
The history is told by the victors and even the survivors...

I think Churchill once remarked that history would be kind to him - because he would write it !

Hi Monsieur Gary Wilson
Yes it is the winners who write history ...
But now it is also the survivors, as there are a lot of the litigation in France, with the revisionist and negationist ...
There are even now laws to prevent some historians to go against " the single thought " !!!...

Pascal - we all know this. And this is why it is important to question and think through the official version of events; not merely to read and believe everything that you read and are told. I did, but over the decades, I have found out the hard way and by real life experience that everything you read and are told is not always true.
