by 13 you can tell if the child has aptitude for math or reading or science.
They should be a broad program to identify strongest subjects with supervision to press them to do even better; meaning if they do awesome in shop class and suck at biology, they should be allowed to take additional...
I went to a high powered suburban school district as well
I did my undergrad in applied math and masters in healthcare administration years later. By postponing graduate school I went into the labor market in 04 when the economy was still awesome and got my foot through the door in a great...
I don't know a realistic percentage, but there are indeed plenty of kids who shouldn't go to college but instead should go to trade school. One can make plenty of money as an electrician or plumber without going through years of ultimately wasted education in a variety of subjects they will...
This, so much this
My experience in the education system of NY has proven to me conclusively that money is only the smallest part of the problem; NYC has shown that you can spend 10's of billions on education and accomplish absolutely nothing. NYS as a whole has proven you can spend hundreds...
Germany's army is required to demobilize army and reduce to no more than 1914 levels
Germany is restricted to 6 fleet active submarines and 1 for training
Germany loses alsace lorraine and all colonies
Germany pays reparations on sliding scale (5% gdp) for 15 years
Germany is restricted...
I have to say that military restriction clauses did nothing but piss germany off and radicalize the citizenry for absolutely no reason
France got the border the Rhine; the Rhine is an EXCELLENT defensive obstacle to shield France in any future conflict (as was shown since the Germans didn't...
the blame for the conflict escalating into a major continent wide war instead of a local conflict falls squarely on Russia
Nikky in order to misdirect attention from how utterly disasterous his government was decided to play "big brother protector slav" to the serbians in an affair that was...
wiking,
you slipped between what I said
withhold till 3rd battle of kharkov
to
withhold till kursk
not having them at kharkov (where they were a majorly effective system in the hands of the SS) changes the outcome to the point where you wouldn't see a kursk that we would recognize
which is why I lean to McNair
he was Marshal's boy but more to the point he was regarded as one of the toughest political operators in the service; Patton was literally afraid of him; he was also senior enough where he could get the position without making anyone look bad
the best choice...
If it's before mcnairs death it would be McNair
Marshal liked McNair and assuming fdr won't let him have a combat command then McNair gets the gig in all likelihood due to seniority. Thankfully with his patron Ike gone it's not likely to be mark Clark
McNair even if has pig headed...
The Russians already took tremendous losses in those southern offensives; but the difference was they accomplished something in driving the germans back a great distance; and most importantly kicked them out of the mineral producing regions in the donets basin
A Kursk where the Germans come out...
so 1200-1500 more then (assuming no bombing or they build them in a safer place like Silesia)
100 more at Kursk certainly helps if they are deployed in a well thought out manner. If we augment them onto Manstein (giving him 2-3 more heavy battalions) it probably stops the 48th Panzer Corps...
