RobbelothE
According to my source, while piloting a P-51, a Capt A. C. Fiedler brought
down a Bf 109 near Ploesti in June 1944 using his service revolver. Does anyone
know the details on this? A Google search found only two hits, neither had any
relevant information. TIA.

These are the facts by
D. Strang
Never name a pig you plan to eat.
Country fences oughta' be horse high, pig tight, and bull strong.
Life ain't about how fast you run, or how high you climb. It's about how
good you bounce.
Keep skunks and gossipers at a distance.
Life is simpler when you plow around the stumps.

Pakistan May Have al-Qaida's No. 2 Man Surrounded by
Dav1936531
Place your bets. Will Ayman al-Zawahri be captured alive? Or will he die the
death of a glorious jihadi martyr? I'll bet he dies....... the Pakistanis
hunting him probably have strict orders to kill him so he can't talk about
Pakistan's relations with both the Taliban and Al-Qaeda.

Rolls Royce spanners - Merlin? by
Rik
Hi,
I have several spanners stamped Rolls Royce, each with a part number,
which I believe to be aircraft spanners. They also have the WD broad
arrow mark. Can anybody identify these - could they be Merlin engine
spanners, as I would have said their age is around the 1940's. Sample
part numbers are...
