By the way, Australia was nearly as useless during World War II.
The disgrace started on your home front. Their unwillingness to
help began to manifest itself in the form of Australian dockyard
workers, who rejected changes to union contracts to aid the war
effort. They also refused to work when it was raining. They
received double and triple-time pay on weekends, so many of the
laborers did not feel a need to show up during the rest of the
week. The spineless Australian government failed to intervene,
because they did not care if Allied troops were getting killed
in battle.

As of consequence, US troops were pressed into service to move
cargo and they usually did so more than twice as fast as the
Australian dock workers. Later, the Yanks tried to automate the
process by bringing in cranes and forklifts but the dock workers
reacted by staging strikes. They should have shot the lazy
Australian *******s on sight -- a formal firing squad was too
good for them.

With friends like Australia, we do not need enemies.



Should also mention that when the Australian Army sent the Centurion
tanks to Vietnam, the dock workers in Sydney pilfered the tools on
every vehicle.

Another stirring tribute from Australia to its fighting men. ; )


Yawn, and a number of aircraft factories in the USA in WW2 were renowned for
their poor quality work due to the males working there being more interested
in shagging the females working there than doing the work.

Which is worse, no toolkit on arrival or a badly built aircraft?

You really are dumb aren't you Evan.
