Pictures of WWII Engineers

[Walt's Daughter]

However I think we all know there were some mixed feelings amongst troops on both sides (American and British) about each other, at times. Even though we were (and are still) allies, we were still different enough to have some "rolling of the eyes".

 

Several years ago I was talking with a British engineer and after getting to know him, became quite perturbed with his feelings toward American engineers. He basically told me there weren't up to snuff and couldn't hold a cup of tea to the British soldier. As you can imagine, that didn't sit too well with me. After that, I lost my respect for the 'ol chap.
