That's just wrong.

Why would it be wrong? He was a southern boy, after all. And sure, he didn't have much formal education, but he was a lot smarter than people gave him credit for.

If he was able to make it in Hollywood, I reckon he could have made it in politics if he wanted.

This picture taken in 1940 on British territory has not been tampered with or altered in any way. I'll let you guys come up with a suitable commentary.

Nice pic!
The Kongo had better guns, but the misfortune to have British builders--and British armor.
Even so, the distance to the theatre of opperations proved difficult for the Grand Alliance (USA, Germany, Great Britain, and Ireland) in the war against the USSR, Japan, and China.
The ongoing distrust between members on both sides led to extra difficulties pressing the war to a conclusion, IIRC.

Spot on. In Jersey. There are some interesting pictures out there of helmeted bobbies posing alongside Wehrmacht soldiers (or the other way around), which make good ATL material.

He looks much better without that bad comb-over.

Would that be Confederate President J.E.B. Stuart II?
