Winston Churchill's 1941 Great Declaration
Another historical video. Can't help it, history turns me on.
This is one of Churchill's finest speeches in which he railed against the "vile race of Quislings", the collaborators with the Nazis in the conquered nations in Europe and promised that ultimately every trace of Hitler's footsteps would be sponged, purged
and, if need be, blasted from the face of the Earth.

Hitler Makes Fun of Roosevelt
I first saw this video clip in a documentary on television in the early 1950's, and have seen it many times since. Only recently did I find it on YouTube.
In March 1939 Germany invaded and occupied Czechoslovakia in violation of agreements Hitler had made earlier in Munich. The following month Italy invaded Albania.
Mainly to raise concerns over Axis aggression in the United States and the rest of the world, President Roosevelt formally requested that both Hitler and Mussolini give assurances as to their peaceful intentions towards some thirty nations he named; and he indicated that if such assurances were received he would ask for similar pledges from each of the other countries he had named. I'm sure he did not expect a reply.
Mussolini did not respond, but Hitler did. In a speech before the Reichstag he made fun of Roosevelt and his request. Yet, he did eventually attack more than half of the nations on Roosevelt's list..

World's Largest Military Aircraft Graveyard
In the desert near Tucson, Arizona surplus and retired aircraft from all branches of the military are stored. The warm and dry climate is ideal for that purpose. Most of the aircraft are stripped for spare parts and eventually scraped, but some are made available for other Government agencies for non-military purposes.
