One of my former teachers posted this to Facebook earlier, was hoping someone might have some insight?

"I'm working with a wonderful Holocaust Survivor on her memoir. She mentioned that rowdy Hungarian soldiers that were on her train en route in 1945 from a DP camp to her former home, were wearing uniforms that included the tall, plumed head-gear typical of Hussars. In my research, however, I find that this head-gear wasn't worn after WWI. Was there a modified version that some might have held on to and worn for special occasions? Does anyone have any info/input on this?"

~cheers!

To me it seems as though it must have been a very modern invention, much more recent than say the notion of France or England.

Is it considered the same event?

Seriously this is bugging me, the USSR invaded simultaneously with the Germans. Why is it that the UK didn't go after both aggressors?

Actually, did the Mayans ever engage in any significant sea-faring?

Could they have used average boats, or were there special ones made to cross the Gibraltar straight?

I understand the concept of operational security in a time of war, and encouraging your population to not gossip or spread false rumors. With the exception of the espionage in the Manhattan Project, was there any Axis espionage rings operating in the US during WWII that justified the propaganda of "Someone Talked!" etc?

Thanks in advance!

How do you be objective when "history is written by the winners"?

Both formations are represented in-game exactly as they sound like. Triangle formation has the troops form a triangular wedge while the diamond formation forms a wedge with the troops tapering off towards the end forming a diamond, albeit with the rear angle blunted into a hexagon. While I have heard of the triangle and wedge formation as common and useful formations for shock attacks I have never heard of the "diamond formation" outside some of the latter total war games. If anyone can substantiate the existence of this formation or enlighten me further as to wedge formations in general I would be delighted.

There are some modern myths about classical philosophers and religious figures in the West (incl Middle East) being directly or indirectly influenced by Buddhist teachings. Is there any documented proof of Buddhist teachings or ideas making it to the West in pre-modern times?

I have been curious since a professor told me that civil war was a natural event that is cyclical among nations.

Just curious if there is any historical proof to go along with it.

Thanks!

I can't seem to find the conclusion to that trial.

Not an expert by any means but I feel like the Allied attempts to throw Germany's atomic program into disarray are at the least well documented. Were there any significant attempts by Germany or its allies to slow or stop the Manhattan Project's progress?

As a corollary, I've heard bits and pieces about the Soviet's infiltration of the project - what was the ultimate goal? Information? Surveillance? Did the Soviets ever consider hampering the Manhattan Project's mission?

As in, Spanish people from the country of "Spain".

Was it just Roman, Germanic, and Arabic people?
