Say hello to Mother Teresa (or did she become the head of the Albanian Maria like Peabody-Martini was threatening to do?).
Not the same person, and that joke is the sort that's funny until someone's crazy enough to do it.

Ok....I was not actually expecting that.
Yellowstone erupting is more plausible than "The Conqueror."An action film set in Italy is far more plausible than The Conqueror.

As Kurt heard bullets zipping by over his head he considered yet again that if he was going to be shot at, being surrounded by tons of steel armor was very preferable. Intelligence had said that the Boers were in retreat, running low on ammunition and other critical supplies. Someone needed to tell that to the bunch that the Company that Kurt had connected himself to had just hit from behind while they were waiting to ambush a convoy of lorries. The 2nd Life Hussars had found themselves pressed into service, pursuing the Boers where they didn’t expect to be followed. The speed and mobility of the Hussars had enabled them to spring quite a few surprises on their opponents. The Boers though never stood still. If the Hussars were spotted approaching. Like they had been today. Then they would use the longer effective range of the American rifles to keep them at bay while they beat a hasty retreat.
There was a loud CLANK! and a few seconds later the hillside six hundred meters away had a mortar shell explode on it. The 50mm mortars whose design they had stolen from the Japanese had more than made up for the effective range of their rifles only being out to around four hundred meters. More shells exploded on the hill side. The Oberst of the 2nd Life Hussars had asked Kurt why he was going out on these missions even if he didn’t need to. The truth was that he felt he had to know what was going on if he was going to be doing much of the planning.
His father would probably have a few words for him over wrecking his car. Reaching for the handle he started to open the door as the car was bathed in a white light and he heard the blast of a steam whistle…
It's a crushing disappointment, approaching.
If he'd been bothered to read his horoscope it would have said "Keep an eye out, something big is coming your way."
Are their any seat belts?
In OTL SAAB introduced seat belts as a standard feature in 1958. They were an option by some manufacturers prior to that.
I figured that, being from the family he's from, Lothar would have something close to a racing car, and they might have had seat belts earlier. Not banged up at all--pretty good--so far.Right, I knew they were an option, but I wasn't sure if there would be any in the car, though.
