  1. Can the Philippines be saved 1941-42?

    So I'm curious if there are any solid possibilities for having the Japanese assault in 1941 fail? To narrow the parameters lets say the earliest you can make a change is June 1941, and that 'replace MacArthur' isn't not an answer in itself. My own reading is that much like Malaya the Philippines...
  2. Munich Shuffle: 1938-1942
    Threadmarks: Munich Shuffle 1938-1942 - Hendon

    September 17th 1938 – Britain – Disaster at Hendon After the Anschluss in March of 1938 there may have been hopes that Hitler might be satisfied with his gains and concentrate on consolidating them, at least for a year or two.

Who is likely to be chosen to replace him...

They lost the gamble because of the speed of US mobilization...
  7. Green Lantern=GotG

    Having seen Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy at the weekend I was struck by the idea that it had a lot in common with DC's Green Lantern movie from 2001. Both were showcases for lesser known comic book characters, both were intended to be a humorous counterpoint to superhero movies that took...
  8. THe LBJ Tapes

    Okay just reading this article at the BBC website and its strikes me as AH gold: The Lyndon Johnson tapes: Richard Nixon's 'treason' The three main points are: 1-Johnson considered flying to the Chicago convention and re-entering the race for the nomination. The Secret Service couldn't...
