I had a suitemate at college who we called "The Shark". He thought it was because he was a good poker player but it was because he was a hammerhead.

A WW2 Spitfire pilot was speaking in a church, reminiscing about his war experiences.

"In 1942," he says, "the situation was really tough. The Germans had a very strong air force. I remember one day I was protecting the bombers and suddenly out of the clouds, these fokkers appeared."

There are a few gasps from the parishioners and several of the children began to giggle.

"I looked up and realized that two of the fokkers were directly above me. I aimed at the first one and shot him down. By then though, the other fokker was right on my tail."

At this point, several of the elderly ladies of the church were blushing with embarrassment.

The pastor finally stands up and says, "I think I should point out that 'Fokker' was the name of a German aircraft company that made many of the planes used by the Germans during the war."

"Yes that's true," says the old pilot, "but these fokkers were flying Messerschmitts."

American ordnancemen are pictured moving a 16-inch shell from its storage stall to ammunition hoist on board the USS New Jersey during World War II, in November 1944 during the war against Japan in the Pacific. The USS New Jersey (BB-62) was an Iowa-class battleship. In October 1944 the vessel had come under a suicide attack from Japanese forces, in assault which injured three people aboard the New Jersey. There were nine 16-inch caliber Mark 7 guns in her battery, which were capable of firing 2,700-pound (1,225kg) shells for a distance of some 23 miles

A team of German soldiers firing an MG42 medium machine gun (MMG) at an unknown location during World War II. The gun was nicknamed 'Hitler's buzzsaw' on account of the unique sound it made. The 7.92x57mm weapon was designed in 1942, and almost half a million of them were built. It was used by both the Wehrmacht and the Waffen-SS during World War II. The gun could fire at a rapid 1,200 rounds per minute, with a firing range of 2,187 yards (2,000m), rising to 3,828 yards (3,500m) with the use of a tripod and telescopic sight

A German soldier with a Nazi eagle on his uniform is pictured with a 'Geballte Ladung' (concentrated charge) weapon, a simple but effective close-combat anti-tank weapon. A concentrated charge was formed by binding together several hand grenades, as seen in this picture, often with a simple method such as tying them together with a rope, cloth or metal wire. The device could be used against walls and light armour, but was especially effective defending against armoured vehicles. It allowed a Wehrmacht soldier to increase the power of a grenade, though it was also heavier to carry

A 6th Airborne Division sniper on patrol in the Ardennes, wearing a snow camouflage suit on January 14, 1945. The division had been back in the UK after helping with the invasion of Normandy which began on D-Day, June 6, 1944, but in the Battle of the Bulge the division was sent to the Ardennes forest in France and Belgium to repel the German counter-attack. In 1945 they took part in Operation Varsity, a co-ordinated airborne attack by the Allies involving more than 16,000 paratroopers, part of an effort to take troops over the Rhine and begin the attack on northern Germany
