If The Lufftwaffe had won the Battle of Britain and gained air superiority over the skies of the UK, How would a naval landing have been successful considering the might of the Royal Navy? Wouldn't they have just been blown out of the water?

i got the idea for this question off of a reputable radio station, which asked if u could change 5 minutes of history, what would you do etc.

So folks, if YOU had the oppertunity to go back to any moment in history - for 1 hour, to try and change the outcome of a tragic event, what would you change ?

I would go go back to ww2 and try to prevent the holocaust if i could.

As well...As significant as the 14th amendment is, it represented a major betrayal to one group who had been very active in social movements in the 1840s and 1850s, who was this group?

I'm done writing a paper for school about what I think it means, but I'd like to include some real-life examples about it.

Only problem is, I'm horrible at history.

Hitler, of course. But that's about all I got. Help, please?

Thanks. =]

I have to turn in an English project on Oskar Schindler in by this Wednesday and it has to be six pages long typed up. It also has to be in my own words. I already have three pages typed up on him. So, could you help me with the rest? I would really appreciate it. By the way, this is what I have typed up so far:

Oskar Schindler was born on April 18, 1908. He moved to the city of Cracow. There, he foresaw enormous business opportunities. He acquired a small factory that produced pots and pans called enamelware by the end of 1939. He created a sanctuary for Jews at his factory and employed more than one thousand Jews by 1944.
Oskar Schindler had made a fortune on military contracts during World War 2. He spent nearly all of it to save Jews from the Holocaust. He built a branch camp at his factory to protect his workers from the hunger and violence at Plzow. He brought about 100 more Jews into the camp in the following months.
Oskar Schindler made a list of more than 1,100 Jews. The list became famous as “Schindler’s List.” This list was of whom he wanted to work at his factory. Almost 800 men and women were employed at his factory.
Oskar Schindler requested the Gestapo to send him all intercepted Jewish fugitives. A hundred additional people were saved by this request.

My boyfriend is a real history lover. If there's anything he could talk or hear about all day its WWII.
I know he loves "Band of Brothers" he rented and saw it all more than once.
Anyways.. i was thinking of getting it for him this christmas but I remembered my history teacher had mentioned "The War" and said how great it was. I looked it up and it has some really good reviews.

So now im wondering if i should get him "The war" instead of "band of brothers"
I'm more of the science geek so I wouldnt be 100% sure which is best..
Any history lovers out there.. which would u rather recieve from your girlfriend?
