I think this is satire but not sure!

'Herr Bear died when he opened his canopy and gave the one finger German salute at the vicious Yankee who were waterskiing behind the enemy destroyers, their gunners, who were grinning and gorging themselves on hot dogs and Budweiser beer, tried in vain to down the dashing pride of the Fatherland.'

Having just read a book about RAF pilots I was seeing what there was about Luftwaffe pilots.

It's an online gamers site for IL2, which looks like a war plane type thingy, so the "news" is just an account of a "frag" - i'm so down with the yoof

Yep - clever site by a bunch of Aussie IL2 Sturmovich players.

Can anyone identify the music on the title page - it's from a film, and cool, but I can't remember which one.

I’ve had that game for about 2 years now and I still haven’t actually played it enough to complete any missions. The aircraft seem bloody twitchy and hard to fly, Russian language instructions from other sortie members don’t help much!

It's probably library music. I have about 2,000 CDs of the stuff here if you want to come and find it
