Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--November 2023

Figure 1.--Here we see a British boy posing by the tail of a Heinkel bomber in late-1940/early-1941. The photo was taken in Monkhopton, a village in Shropshire--a county in the West Midlands northwest of London. We note many assessments of World War II, especially internet and Rusian discussions, that tend to downplay Britain's contribution to World War II. Now it is true that based on the combat power of the Big Three (America, Britain, and the Soviet Union), Britain was the junior partner. But it is also true that Britain was the first to engage NAZI Germany militarily and a time that 1) America was largely unarmed and clinging to neutrality (September 1939-December 1941 2) that the Soviet Union was a NAZI ally (August 1939-June 1941). And 1940-early 1941 was a critical point because if Hitler and the NAZIs were to win the War, it had to be at the outset when they had a temporary military advantage and before the War became a war of attrition that Gernmny could not win.

Some HBC readers tell us that they would like to be able to access new pages, but do not want to receive E-mails on every new page added to HBC. We have also for several years now experienced problems dealing with AOL. Thus we have created this page for HBC readers. We will list new pages or existing pages to which we have added additional information. We used to maintain a page like this. We know from this experience that we sometimes forget to add a new page, but we will try to remember to do this as much as possible. There will not be a link on our home page so you will want to add this to your favorites/book marks. We plan to only make this page available to readers who support HBC. There may be occasional changes in the URL. Just let us know if you have any question about this HBC feature.

Notice CIH/HBC is still working on a huge migration. The new system is more stable, but much more demanding than the old system. A tiny coding error which the old system tolerated can cause a broken link, both pages and images. I am slowly making the correctiions, but as there are 25,000+ pages, it will be some time before we find them all. If you encounter a broken page or image link, feel free to alert me and I will make the needed correction and you can get to the page
