RedWolfTrevize Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 Anyone know of any websites where I can learn about the all-Jewish brigade that fought in Italy? I'm writing a screenplay about it and I figured this was the best place to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pham911 Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 Is this the best place to ask because it's a Jewish Wargaming website? Or, because the Library is an illusive concept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Carter Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 There was a great documentary about the brigade that aired on PBS last winter (spring?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armdchair Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 There is a book out I have not read (available at Barnes & Noble's, among others) entitled: "The Jewish Brigade: An Army with Two Masters, 1944-45" by Morris Beckman, Sarpedon Publishers,Inc.,1998. Hopes this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedWolfTrevize Posted September 12, 2000 Author Share Posted September 12, 2000 Thanks, Nick, Ghostdog, and Armdchair. Pham, I did look in a library, but they didn't have anything about it in that branch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I attacked his attackers. And, are we already stooping to nit-picking spelling errors? Is there no better way you could occupy your time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatAWilson Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 Every time I see one of these dumb assed flairups I will think back to the "What kind of flame warrior are you" link that someone posted. I forget who that someone was but thank you, I now read this silliness with a smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the forum members are much more polite. Good luck with your screenplay, sounds interesting.

He got at least two good responses from people who were able, or at least willing, to help. Like many of your other posts on this forum, you chose to use an 'in your face, border-line abusive, pissoff' response. Do you have some kind of chemical inbalance, or are you just here for a fight? Either way, I'm beginning to think you're a good candidate for someone who's overstayed your welcome, and are edging towards the banned list. Personally, I don't much like confrontation, but that seems to be all you're after. Why don't you climb down off of it, and try to be a member of a 'community', rather than a pit bull. ------------------ After witnessing exceptional bravery from his Celtic mercenaries, Alexander the Great called them to him and asked if there was anything they feared.

Heaven forbid you should actually have the decency, grace, wit or charm to defend someone. no that wouldn't be the Pig Headed Arse Man way now would it? noooo! Just attack. Attack Attack. Never apologize for you are PHAM and you are right. Never be courteous it - is a sign of weakness. Never be helpful as it might give the other guy a leg up, and then where would the mighty PHAM be? A LEG DOWN, and by gawd we cannot have that sort of thing going on when it is infinite ego of the mighty PHAM at stake. All hail PHAM the Magnificent! For he has all of the answers so you better listen. PHAM knows wargames! PHAM knows Civil rights! PHAM KNOWS PROGRAMMING! PHAM KNOWS ALL!!! HAIL TO PHAM!!! {and the crowd roars its hearty approval} Way to go PHAM, nice job insulting the newbie. Peng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von shrad Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 Hey, how 'bout them Eagles. I heard the NFL has decided to give them a fair match-up for next week. They will play The Sisters of Saint Mary's. Already the lil old Nuns are 7 point favorites. And Pham.....play nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted September 12, 2000 Share Posted September 12, 2000 OK, let's end it, shall we? But Pham... I have noticed you are pretty quick to flare up for no reason. Notice that this sort of behavior is not welcome here. Senseless flaming is what USENET is for. This is a place for rational discussion and goading Mr. Peng with smilies: And with that, thread is locked up. Good luck with your search RedWolf. National Archives would also be a great source.
