A campaign poster for Richard Nixon's 1980 presidential campaign. The 77 year old former Vice President had ran in 1960 and 1968 and lost both times, in 1960 to John F. Kennedy, and in 1968 to Hubert Humphrey. In 1980, trying his hand as an elder statesman, he managed to secure election with Ronald Reagan as his vice president.

Nixon would serve as President until 1983 when he died of a coronary and was succeeded by his Vice President.

Not sure if this has been posted before, but there's this delightful 1960s movie, Thirty Six Hours, about a Nazi interrogation in the days before Normandy. Basically, the Nazis set up a fake Allied Occupation Hospital in Germany, complete with English-speaking staff and faux American Military Personnel. They "slip [the American] a mickey" (Actual words from the film) and try and convince him that it's 1950, that the war ended in 1944, and that he has amnesia and needs to tell them the events of the last several days that he can remember. This leads to some nice ATL-looking scenes with Nazis and US army personnel talking amiably.

Captions are my own, save for the first two.

Huey Long and a clean-shaven Von Hindenburg share a moment in a temporary headquarters in the Rhinelands Confederacy. Long narrowly lost the 1944 US Presidential election to Wallace, and is best known today as the Governor of American China, and for being killed by the Communist firing squad that kicked off the Second China War.

Cross-posting from the Red Dawn Art Thread, I've been messing around with photo editing recently.

Modern restoration of a Soviet Pa-22 bomber, one of the most successful Soviet bombers of the Second World War (1938-1946), seeing service in all major theaters of the war that the Soviet Union participated in (Eastern European, Scandinavian, and Anatolian).
The primary nemesis of the Pa-22, the Vickers Hornet, of the United British Commonwealths; in addition to the European theaters, it also saw action in the West Africa Theater with the South African Republic and the Great Lakes Theater with the Canadian Republic. It was produced under license by Clarkson Aviation for the Confederate States of America as the FC-50 Kestrel.

Downtown Wenestadt (OTL Kinshasa), circa 1995. Already one of Africa's fastest growing and prosperous cities prior to the Third Great War (1979-1983) thanks to a serious of progressive governors, the immense destruction the USSR visited on Germany proper ensured that the Kongo in general and Wenestadt in particular would become the economic center of the German Reich in the post-war recovery. The standard of living is high, astronomically so compared to the much of the rest of Africa, on par with metropolitan Germany (comparable to OTL Spain). Having twice housed the exiled House of Hohenzollern during the British and Soviet occupation of Germany in Great Wars Two and Three, respectively, it has gained the nickname "die Festung" (the fortress).
