Read somewhere that the British army ran some war games in the 70s to simulate how Operation Sea Lion would have played out if the Krauts had gone for it.
They concluded that they would have advanced to the main defensive line just south of London, but from that point the Royal Navy would be able to cut the supplies off and they wouldn't have made it any further. Posted by: Biggs Darklighter at January 12, 2021 09:51 AM (LZ7Gl) 71

By WW2 they were a pretty useless anachronism, put up because some people liked to see them, but of little use. Sometimes they would put an observer in a basket, but that was a suicide mission if there ever was one. ======= The purpose of barrage balloons was the steel cable that tethered it to a ground-based or ship-based point. The balloons were supposed to hinder low-flying enemy aircraft. Get too close to a balloon, lose a piece of wing or tail. That actually happened a few times, and made them a cheaply effective anti-aircraft defense. Posted by: exdem13 at January 12, 2021 10:02 AM (W+kMI) 112

41 What did balloons like this do?
Posted by: Kris at January 12, 2021 09:39 AM (VQp/A) They are called barrage balloons (I don't know the origin of the term). They were deployed in clusters, over high-value targets/areas, to deter low-flying strafers and horizontal bombers, and dive bombers. Used mostly in the UK, but there are pictures showing them used over the Normandy beaches, after the fighting moved a bit inland, to protect LST's and other vessels unloading men and materials directly onto beaches. Posted by: Gref at January 12, 2021 10:04 AM (AMIL/) 121
What were the balloons supposed to do anyway? Be "roadblocks" for the German bombers?

The left is high fiving each other with "We stopped the Nazis" from taking over, but what the left has actually done, is destroy the Republic, out of pure stupidity. What Hitler, like all dictators, did, was expand the power of government. You can't be a dictator if you, DECREASE the power of government, YOU IDIOTS. What President Trump did was decrease the number of government workers by over 1,000,000 and get rid of oppressive red tape. It was always easy to see that the left pushed stupid policies that inevitably failed, but now it has become apparent that the left consists of the political equivalent of chimpanzees with machine guns, destroying things that they can't begin to understand.

They concluded that they would have advanced to the main defensive line just south of London, but from that point the Royal Navy would be able to cut the supplies off and they wouldn't have made it any further.
Posted by: Biggs Darklighter I like to think that might have been true. But then I remember that instead of invading Britain, Germany turned around and invaded the USSR a year later with 3 million men and ended up fighting there for 1,417 days. Sure, they had to cross the English Channel to invade Britain, rather than 1000 km of steppes, but I think the Germans would have been a lot more successful with an invasion of the UK. The Royal Navy? Hitler would have stationed all his subs on the bottom of the Channel and would have most likely sunk the entire Royal Navy when they appeared.

Primitive air defenses. British radar was the most advanced, but it was still brand new when the war began and the inland stations weren't as numerous or capable as the coastal ones. So, for the bomber formations that got through, the ladies on the ground manned the sirens and took care of the balloons while the men flew the suicide missions above.

Sure, they had to cross the English Channel to invade Britain, rather than 1000 km of steppes, but I think the Germans would have been a lot more successful with an invasion of the UK.

Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at January 12, 2021 10:10 AM (xT2tT) NH has seen an influx from city dwellers looking to get out. Good times if you own real estate and want to sell. Bad because our property taxes are abased on 100% home valuation. And our local politicians are all lefties and haven't met a $1 bill they wouldn't spend. Seacoast NH, where I am, is all blue. There are sizable pockets of us holdouts, but it is painfully clear we are behind enemy lines. Geographically, I love this state. I'm originally from upstate NY (north of Albany) but never looked back. I like being 1hr from mountains, 30 minutes to any beach I want to go to. Alas, I fear it is lost.

86 What were the balloons supposed to do anyway? Be "roadblocks" for the German bombers?
Posted by: johnd01 at January 12, 2021 09:54 AM (ukNFU) Roadblock of a sort. They were to discourage low altitude flight (under 5000 ft or so). The most accurate bombing at the time was dive bombing. Release altitude around 2000 ft or less. Also, flying lower puts an attacking aircraft below the engagement height of the heavy anti-aircraft weapons of the time (the ones that fill the air with shell fragments. Lighter one needed a bullet to hit the target). The heavy weapons could not track fast moving, low altitude targets. So, these balloons would counter dive bombers and force level bomber to attack at higher altitudes, decreasing their accuracy (the higher the release height, the less accurate) and making them more vulnerable to anti aircraft fires. The balloons hoisted up a steel cable that was anchored to the ground. It would not only foul the aircraft, but could cut through a wing. These balloons are blimp shaped so they can operate in higher winds that a round balloon. Posted by: Iron Mike Golf at January 12, 2021 10:33 AM (8C7+r) 273

Mr. Meeseeks,
The primary barrier was that the Royal Navy made it impossible to cross the channel plus the limits on German shipping made it impossible as well. Churchill and the Brits rejected demands from the French to basically throw their British Spitfires and Hawker Hurricanes away when France had clearly lost. Many of the French government wanted England to go down too if France did. Thus, the Germans had to eliminate the RAF using the German Air Force so that the Royal Navy could be dealt with on the invasion. The limited amount of shipping available to the Germans meant using clearly unsuited river barges to cross a very nasty English Channel risking loss of a lot of boats and supply by simple swamping in rough seas. In addition, it limited the Germans to be able to send a couple of divisions initially which would be greatly outnumbered even by reserves and the populace. Then was the problem of resupply such as petrol for tanks. Then, there is the problem that the Germans would have to take fortified ports in order for resupply. Dieppe for the Allies showed that to be foolish. Posted by: whig at January 12, 2021 10:34 AM (pO7gM) 276

Posted by: Gref The fact that Franco won the Spanish Civil War is an interesting aspect of the war. If the Republican/Communists had won, Germany would have invaded Spain, and sealed off the Western Meditteranean. That might have won the war right there. The Afrika Corp would have won in North Africa, and proceeded east into the Levant and then on to Russia. Franco was supposed to come into the war on Hitler's side. Everyone expected that, especially Hitler. He (Franco) saw what a psychopath Hitler was, and was having none of that, and wanted to protect Spain.

The diversity racket is a scheme by which upper-middle-class white women transmute victimhood into status. The problem they have is that it's all fake, and if enough people realize that the gig is up.

Glen Greenwald, Julian Assange, and Matt Tabibi were and are honest leftists that feared concentrated power whether business or government most of all.
They differ on the prescriptions from conservatives on what to fix and how to fix it but to their credit--they recognize the authoritarian nature of concentrated power because it tries to perpetuate and extend itself indefinitely. Unlike most other things, the appetite for seeking power is infinite and never slaked for some people and is a direct consequence of do as you will philosophy because some come to believe that they are divine themselves.

Posted by: AZ Hi Desert (Gringo fuertemente armado -tempore belli!) at January 12, 2021 10:30 AM (N3El/) Why is it counterproductive? I think it's way past time. What did the unarmed rally in DC accomplish? You're just sheepishly following the virtue-signaling of the DC establishment and the communist media.

My wife is getting really tired of me "Nood"ing all the time - so all you morons need to stop encouraging me.
That and what we need is common sense spoon control - because all these spoons are what are making us fat. Posted by: justasheep at January 12, 2021 11:27 AM (L9Eia) 437
Parler turns out to have had amateur hour coding. Very lax security and easy to hack. One thing they did was leave geolocation on photos and videos. So basically perfectly set up to dox anyone who uploaded any media.

If you ancestors were part part of the "Trial of Tears" would that mean
you would receive you business grant before the Black people whose relatives were slaves before 1870's? Posted by: FenelonSpoke at January 12, 2021 10:56 AM (VP4Cd) What about the black slaves that were owned by the Cherokee who walked the trail of tears with them? Do they get double grants?

The mother of Viking Helmet guy says he hasn't eaten in days because the jail doesn't have vegan food.
Posted by: Nancy Pelosi's Desk Chair. at January 12, 2021 10:57 AM (PtOP4) No way he is an alleged Trump supporter. Impossible. Posted by: Mr. Meeseeks, Look at me at January 12, 2021 11:03 AM (2DOZq) He is either QAnon or Antifa, depending on the identifying source. The fact that he is vegan points me toward believing he is Antifa. Posted by: redbanzai the Southerner at January 12, 2021 11:48 AM (946rW) 440
>>>He is either QAnon or Antifa, depending on the identifying source. The fact that he is vegan points me toward believing he is Antifa.
He is the QAnon Shaman or the Q Shaman. He is not vegan, his diet requirement is "organic" which is not vegan. Are you ever tired of being wrong? Trump had the opportunity to reject QAnon, he didn't because they support him. Posted by: Donny Pantload at January 12, 2021 12:02 PM (hgQj/) Processing 0.05, elapsed 0.0545 seconds. |
