How now All!
Maybe this was raised before, i donno (i'm a newbie to posts here - always spent too much time reading yer addictive posts!!)
Just wondering what yer thoughts are on the tactical advantage of Axis troops in occupied Ireland during the war? The Brits would've been surrounded on 3 sides (Ireland, France & Norway far to the east), so it would've caused even more chaos for them. Hitler did have plans to invade, can't think of the operation codeword now but the invasion/basing of German forces here would have been swift, right?
If he hadn't turned his attention to Russia (his ultimate downfall), Ireland would've been next (?) and things would've turned out a whole lot different.
