Hey Guys!
What about if we make a quizz?Let´s have some fun and learn more about military.How it works?
I´ll make the first question, and who gives the right answer first can ask another one and so on...
Here it goes:
What was "Operation Overclap"??

By the vast number of reponses, I would take it no one knows the answer. I have no idea what "operation overclap" was....
but sounds like a fun shore leave........ :-)

I know I'm clueless on this one

thats a hard one,

ive never heard of it, and neither has google?

cheers

joe

Me too, I've got a site saved that has all the operation code names for the ETO, but this one isn't listed. I'm guessing it might have been PTO but I can't find it. Good question though. I'm in a history quiz that is similar to this on another site, www.historical-battles.com and I was seriously thinking of using this question. But that would be cheating.

Bus,
Do you mean Operation Thunderclap? It was the fire bombing of Dresden during WWII. I can find no reference to Operation Overclap in any of my references. Or possibly you meant operation Overlord? If not I am stumped
Cheers,
Bryan

I got it!! It is Operation Thunderlord, the secret Norse plan to bring Thor down from Asgard (sp?) to whup up on everybody...

/Got nothin'/

Shaun :-) :-) :-)

I like Keenans Awnser...... got nuttin' here as well!!!!

Maybe it was Ike's plan to send all of the Overlord participants to the brothels one last time before the invasion...

Sorry Guys!!!!!Wow, I wrote so fast.... Bryan is right!!peration ThunderClap!!!Sorry for the mess!
Your turn Bryan!

This is out of my league ... guessing the question and answer is beyond me! :-) :-) (Sorry Bus!)

but sounds like a fun shore leave........
Should be points awarded for answers of this caliber!

Hey Frank!
What a confusion :-)
Shall we stablish points to the guys ?If so Bryan has one already!

That's cheating!!! How can I pass a test where the questions are all wrong? do you want to fail us all without giving us a chance? :-) :-) :-)

Well...Bryan is taking too long, so I´m gonna make another one:
What was the last german troop to surrender at WW2??(Now it´s right!)

Sgt Shultzs from Stag 17??????

troop as in individual?

I don't have the details but wasn't some weather station in the far north?

Rodger is right!
They surrendered at November!They were in Spitzbergen, an island in the artic.
Your turn Rodger

Ok, how about this one. The 101st Airborne is best known for action in the siege of Bastogne is the Battle of th Bulge. What other units were also besieged in Bastogne? I've got five other units listed besides the 101st? Name any two of them.

I think...
463º artillery battalion

10ºarmored division

I'm going to guess you're right Bus. I've got 10th Armored, and elements of the 9th Armored, 28th Infantry Divisions, 705th Tank Destroyer Battalion, 1128th Engineer Combat Group and "5 corps level artillery battalions." My source doesn't name those arillery battalions so I'm gussing 463rd was one of them.

Your turn.

Here I go: What was the main reason for the Brazilian declaration of war over the axis?

32 Brazilian vessels fell victim of U-boats all along the coast, with painful consequences to the national spirit, which eventually led to the declaration of war on Germany and Italy in August 1942

OK Max!Your turn

What time was Operation Barbarossa suppose to actually begin

( what date )
