Low Flier:
Re your post on Ronald Tooke's recent experience in Hampshire:-
Apart from the few History buffs I've met here in the States, few Americans are aware that WW11 started 9/3/39. The war history here starts 12/7/41, and so many of the TV programmes on WW11 show only US military exploits. Rarely is another country mentioned. I enlighten them every chance I get. Ignorance is not confined to present day Britain, it seems to be a worldwide trend.
