Interesting! Thanks for the 'Heads Up'.
Sam,
Thanks for posting the links.
I smiled at the assumption stated in the German article that Germany lost the war in 1941. Depending on the author/historian you read, I personally like the assumption that Germany lost the war in 1940, during the Battle of France.
Wonder weapons aside, a great many technical marvels were created in WWII, by many countries. I doubt that any single one would have completely overwhelmed its opponents. Still, there is a legacy of ingenuity and skill to be admired.
