@WrestlingNewsCo @Ubernerd232 The payoff was the next week on Raw poll

@Ubernerd232 Or when Doink stole Macho Man’s hat

The Berzerker vs The Undertaker is one of those forgotten Taker feuds because there was no PPV payoff. Berzerker tried to stab Taker with his sword!

@WrestlingNewsCo I’ve always said this. Context wise, with Shawn gone this made DX at the time!

On this date in 1998, X-Pac returned to WWE and joined DX. What a promo by Pac on WCW.

@history_dame Yep

I’m kind of shock by the number of people who don’t think this movie would be fascinating because it is about the weather for D-Day. Then I remember that average person are not history nerds nor do they realize D-Day was pushed back due to the weather and was at risk to be pushed back a second time. Thankfully, not because within a week the weather would have been worse than June 6.

@DrHelenFry That’s a good question. I don’t know! I was just drawn to it.

What first sparked your interest in WW2 history?

@BlackDumpling This scene is in the book.

Band of Brothers: I know I lot of you have served. How accurate is this? I mean this single clip covers so many aspects of military service. Valor, cowardice, frustration at being in command and enlistment. And the legends that spring from them. But that's the point, does this sort of thing actually happen or is this just one of those things that still gets talked about decades later because of how rare it all really is? If you have first hand experience with situations like this I'd love to hear it.

@ESPNCleveland We didn’t play Buffalo that year, that was 2019

“This man, Cold Chad Henne, came off the bench bro, and crushed my dreams,” - Jarvis Landry is still not over the Browns 2020 playoff loss.

@TheMarkHenry Amen, Mark!!

The Strongest Word from the World’s Strongest Man!

@OTD_in_WWE Wow, this is just two months before Hall Showing up!

#OnThisDayInWWE 30 years ago (yesterday) on Nitro: Zeus is back to gain revenge on Hulk Hogan! He's joined by The Final Solution - yes, that really was his name... Meet The Alliance to End Hulkamania

@jrobertweeks @travisakers Sure does

@travisakers I will say, it seemingly takes forever to drive north out of Florida if you’re starting near south Florida.

Atlanta is closer to Canada than Miami is to Atlanta. I have no point to make, I just thought you should know.

@Holy__Bible1 Amen

@LumenX_ Yes

Does ANYONE here BELIEVE God can turn EVERYTHING around in just ONE NIGHT?

@TheRich_Gospel Praise the Lord!

@VoicesofWW2 Great list! I read five on there. Ones I’ve read not listed are the Auschwitz Volunteer by Captain Witold Pilecki, Shier’s Berlin Dairy, and for a slightly different angle ,The Watchdog by Steve Drummond

What's the best WW2 book you've ever read? I pulled together 28 of my picks. Covering everything from the Eastern Front to D-Day, spy operations to the bombing campaigns, the Holocaust to the home front. Full list: drive.google.com/file/d/1soY-W8…

@VisionaryVoid There is a book I read about this titled The Last Battle!

The Day Americans and Germans Fought Together in WWII. On May 5, 1945, in the Austrian Alps, one of the strangest battles of the entire war took place at Castle Itter. High-ranking French prisoners, including two former prime ministers, were trapped inside as a unit of die-hard SS troops approached to execute them. Help came from an unexpected direction. U.S. Captain Jack Lee arrived with a single Sherman tank. He was joined by Major Josef Gangl, a German Wehrmacht officer who had already defected to protect civilians. Together with just a handful of American and German soldiers, and the French prisoners themselves, who picked up weapons, they defended the castle. The battle was desperate. The Sherman tank was destroyed. Ammunition ran low. Major Gangl was killed shielding a former French Prime Minister. Just as the SS were about to break through, American reinforcements arrived and ended the fight. It remains the only known battle in World War II where American and German troops fought side by side against other Germans. In the final days of the war, survival proved stronger than old hatreds. Sometimes the most extraordinary alliances are born not from politics, but from simple human decency in the face of evil.

@JoelOsteen Amen!!

God wouldn’t have allowed the end of one thing if He didn’t have a new beginning coming. Don’t judge by appearances. God is doing things you can’t see. There’s something bigger, better, more rewarding than you can imagine.

@Mind_Essentials Amen!!

@RGIII Thank you, brother 🙏🏻

Don’t you even think about quitting. Are you facing some adversity? Good. Trust God and keep putting in the work because your breakthrough is right around the corner.

@DrHelenFry Wow. It’s obviously such a vast topic with thousands of subtopics and more sub topics. That being said, for something over arching, I would suggest Shirer’s Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.

If you were recommending one World War Two book to someone completely new to the topic, which one would you pick?

@robinthemint @PeverellTom @DrHelenFry Yes and Berlin Diary is excellent!

@PeverellTom @DrHelenFry I have just read William Shirer’s Berlin diary about his time there during the late 1930s and early 1940s before Pearl Harbor obviously. A fascinating social and political account from inside Nazi Germany. He was a great writer.

@terraluxe @DrHelenFry I’ve heard good things! I read Ernst Hanfstaengl’s memoirs. much better than I expected!

@DrHelenFry Albert Speer's "Inside the Third Reich." It is an interesting take from a person who was on the inside and how he is trying to make his part in the debacle look less than it actually was.
