Lance Corporal Job Maseko was once a gallant South African hero who died without a penny to his name.

X troop was composed of Jewish refugees from concentration camps before they escaped to the UK, so they had their personal reasons to fight.

Peter Lemon had a slightly different story because he did his duties and more while high on marijuana.

Many of the Japanese strategies, especially at the time when the odds were against them, and they knew they could not stop the US, involved different forms of suicide attacks.

After its unimpressive performance, the Bell P-39 Airacobra was deemed the least loved American fighter plane of World War II.

What’s striking and eerily unique about this burial place was that the graves were not marked with tombstones or crosses but with aircraft tail fins.

What would you do if one day, the government told you that you’re only given 47 days to pack your things up, settle everything, and find a new place to stay because they are taking over your village?

Even when it is now crude in today’s standard, the sling was once a weapon of choice of many nations, and for reasons.

The United States once pushed to establish a Camel Corps that lasted only from 1856 to 1866.

The birth (and death) of the Balloon Corps would be the base of what soon would become the Air Force that we know.

Of all the possible reasons that high-ranking SS and police officer Reinhard Heydrich could’ve died, the reason for his death was for sure unexpected.

The Canadian Rangers’ weapon of choice is the more than a century-old Lee-Enfield Rifle, and it was a no-brainer.
