Knocking me out with those American thighs (and lager)

British actor Dirk Bogarde talks about his experiences after entering the recently liberated Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in mid April 1945. He served as an intelligence officer with the 21st Army Group.

They left their shoes behind but their souls will never be forgotten! On the banks of the Danube River in Budapest, 60 bronze pairs of shoes stand as a silent witness to a tragedy!! In 1944-1945, thousands of Hungarian Jews were ordered to take off their shoes before •being shot into the icy river! Today, we give them back their faces. We remember their lives, not just their absence and we thank Hashem that we have our homeland back! Never again is Israel Never again is the IDF! Never again is NOW! Post by @adidvashai ❤️🙏

On this day of Yom HaShoah, our message to the world who seem to have forgotten, and especially to all our enemies, is very simple: NEVER AGAIN. EVER!!!

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom HaShoah). In memory of 6,000,000 who were murdered solely because they were Jewish. Never Again.

🇺🇸 Brits couldn't do a rescue like we just did in Iran,they stand back a little... 🇬🇧 .. hold our beer son... Apache pilot Captain Tom O’Malley who flew his Apache gunship into a Taliban stronghold with two Royal Marines strapped to the side in an extraordinary bid to save a wounded comrade The official citation for the award of the Distinguished Flying Cross remains on the MOD restricted list, however extracts and the excellent book “Apache” by Ed Macy a fellow Apache pilot who participated in the rescue operation, gives an unprecedented insight and detailed account of the mission. Captain Darren “Tom” O’Malley was serving with 656 Squadron Army Air Corps, at that time with the rank of Warrant Officer 1st Class. In November 2006 he returned to Afghanistan for his second tour on the Apache Attack Helicopters, at the time although holding the rank of Warrant Officer he was the most senior Pilot on the unit with the most air hours on the type, he was also the Squadron’s Qualified Helicopter Instructor and one of the few men on the Squadron qualified to sit in both seats. 656 Squadrons deployment to Afghanistan coincided with that of the 45 Commando Royal Marines and on the 15th January 2007 the “Royals” were deployed on Operation Glacier 2 an attack on Jugroom Fort in Garmsir in Southern Helmand, this being a Taliban stronghold. The Marines “Zulu” Company” were to be covered by two of the Squadron Apache’s. Tom was serving back at the units base at Camp Bastion with the Stand By Flight. The late deployment of the Royals into the attack, ate into the fuel of the two covering Apaches, which greatly reduced their time over target. Despite a heavy bombardment, the Taliban put up stiff resistance, forcing the Marines to withdraw and with fuel and ammunition running low on the tasked Apaches, Tom’s flight (2 Apaches) was scrambled, to take over air support, while the original Apaches returned for refuelling and rearming. In the second Apache was Warrant Officer Ed Macey, Tom was flying in the front seat of call sign Ugly 50 and was mission Commander. Macey’s Apache call sign Ugly 51. As the pair flew to Jugroom they received a situation report and it was then they got an idea how things had deteriorated with a group of five Marines missing in Action. As they neared Tom was updated that one One Marine was missing Lance Corporal Mathew Ford. When on target it was the mission priority to locate Ford, assess if he was alive and protect him. Ugly 51 spotted a body which was identified as Ford, he was giving off a heat signature and was therefore alive,An order came through the radio from the CO let no Taliban near Ford, a ground rescue operation is under preparation. So began the long task of protection against constant Taliban fire from both machine guns and rocket propelled grenades, with ammunition running out and fuel low, there was no evidence of a ground rescue. Tom then came up with the plan to strap two Marines to the side of each Apache fly towards the fort, land, rescue Ford by slinging him under an Apache, whilst the Marines resumed their position on the side. The daring plan was tentatively authorised by the Squadron CO but flatly refused by the Royals. It was only when their Colonel was patched in on the radio that the Helicopter crews realised the CO was unaware of their rescue plan and he gave the go ahead. This was the first time that British or American Apaches had flown with men strapped to the side, it was a procedure only to be used in the event of rescuing fellow pilots from a crashed Apache behind enemy lines. *Note US Apaches have Tampax machine & Tanning solarium where the Marines sat. Following a bombardment, and with top cover provided by the original Apache Flight, Ugly 50 & 51 went in problems became apparent straight away, Tom in the front helicopter was blinded by dust, blown up by the rotor blades and the landing field was too small for both helicopters, Cont...

Horatio Nelson, the greatest admiral in history.

THOUSANDS flooding Trafalgar Square for the Passion of Jesus on Good Friday! A Christian revival is coming to Britain — and it's about damn time. We've let our faith be mocked and replaced long enough. This is our country. This is our Christian heritage. Stand up, fight back, and reclaim Britain for Christ! 🙏🇬🇧✝️

April 2nd 1982: Groups of Royal Marines are now battling Argentine assailants in Stanley itself, who pop up from empty houses and gardens. Here is the famous scene from the battle: "Would you like a cup of tea, boys?" - "Get down, you silly b*tch, there's an invasion on!" 1/2

@kejamieson_ Looks delicious

Time for the annual Easter Bank Holiday breakfast of champions. Bacon sandwich hot cross bun ✔️

Before “viral,” there was Evel Knievel launching himself into history. No filters… just guts.

If you ever wanted an example of how our military strives for excellence in everything they undertake this is a pretty good example. Could you imagine any other country pulling this off. 🇬🇧 ❤️🙏 Utterly Stunningly Beautiful 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
