Talk:Eber Baker

message: It needs to be noted that Baker chose the name Marion after the county name, and that in no way was "Oscar Marion" considered.  There has been an attempt by the woman behind the Oscar Marion discovery to attach his relationship to his owner's accomplishments outside of the War service. This was never the case with the county, or in the case of the village, founded by Baker. Sjkoblentz (talk) 11:57, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Re: merge 

message: There should be a mention of creepback.
When the primary markers had been dropped, the Main Force would bomb on those. Initially the primary target would be marked with red parachute flares, and remarked every 10 minutes  with greens. There were two problems a) remarking caused the aiming spot to wander and b) creepback. In the heat of battle, with searchlights lighting you up, flak bursting all around and  adjacent aircraft getting hit, the temptation was always to bomb as early as possible and get the hell out. Since a lot of crews simply bombed where the guy in front had bombed , the aiming spot would in effect 'walk' in the direction the bomber stream was approaching from.
A solution was tried whereby a camera was attached to one of the bomb racks, which took a photo of the aiming spot. This also prevented another common practice, which was to dump the 2000lb cookie (a large cylindrical blast bomb filled with HE) into the English Channel on the way out, in order to lighten the aircraft and gain height. This partially worked, but never completely cured creepback. Instead, Saundby and the others at Aylesbury realised they might as well use the effect, and in later raids, creepback was planned into the aiming point such that the area being bombed moved over several targets during the main force attack.
Id write that into the article myself, but theres no point, some arrogant knobhead who wasnt there and knows squat about it would edit it out again

replies: text: Well you’d have needed a source for all this before putting it in; OTOH "creepback" is already mentioned at Pathfinder (RAF), and we’ve had an article on it (with sources) since August 2005, so I reckon some "arrogant knobhead" has already done exactly what you suggested.

thread_title:  Creepback 

message: It's been pointed out here that there's a considerable overlap between the material here and at Pathfinder (RAF). I suggest the reason for this is that at some point in the past the stuff at Pathfinder (RAF) has been copied over to here, so the logical thing to do would be to delete it again. The two are not synonymous, although 8 Group carried out the pathfinder function (most of it) for most of the war. The 8 Group article should discuss the unit history (1st and 2nd World Wars, and both WWII incarnations (like all our other RAF Group articles); the Pathfinder article is the place for the development, techniques, major operations and politics involved in pathfinding.</br>  
If there are no objections I will start separating out the extra stuff here (probably sections 2 to 6) and copying any differences over to the Pathfinder article; I'll also add the WWI stuff (such as it is) to here. Xyl 54 (talk) 01:12, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Copyright issue

message: Where the article says: "neither the surface colour, nor the fusion colour in perceived, but only the colour resulting from the fusion of that of the transparent surface and that of the background", shouldn't it say "neither the surface colour, nor the BACKGROUND colour in perceived, but only the colour resulting from the fusion of that of the transparent surface and that of the background" ?
Where it says: "appearance does not reflect the physical model", does physical model refer to the physical world setup (ie. filter material on top of some background material), or it refers to a model, in this case the convergence model? In other words, is the sentence trying to say that the model of transparency illusion differs in its predictions from the perceived transparency illusion (ie. a bad model), or that the real/physical world setup differs from what is perceived as the transparency illusion (ie. we fooled the visual system)?

Talk:Constanze Manziarly

message: Marshall Antonescu (leader of Romanian Fascist Legionary Government) recommended Miss Manziarly to Hitler. He had stomach problems, too, and she was his diet-cook. So in 1943 she moved from Bucuresti to Germany, what can be read in Traudl Junge's Book, which was the story for the film Der Untergang (The downfall). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.186.123.65 (talk) 23:18, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Antonescu's cook 

message: I know that most accounts say that after the final breakout from the Fuhrerbunker that Manziarly was separated from the rest of the group, and never seen again. In the movie Downfall she's shown sitting amongst the rubble, with a look of utter despair on her face, at which time she produces one of the small brass cylinders containing the cyanide vials that her contemporaries were using at the time (the same kind that the movie shows Hewel holding, which he said was given to him by Hitler, etc.), and then it leaves it at that, the rest up to the imagination of the viewer.
Does anyone have any notion what-so-ever of what happened to her? Was she likely killed and her body buried as "unknown" in an unmarked or mass-grave? Was she taken by the Soviet's as one of the many "personal prisoners" that they abducted at the time? Are there any eyewitness or other accounts of where she wound up, what happened, etc.? Did anyone ever put any effort in to locating her, as they did with the others (such as Borman, etc.)? I know that she wasn't as impactful as Borman or Mueller but I would think that people would have been curious about her ultimate disposition and would have tried to find out. It seems to be one of the last unsolved mysteries of WWII.
Any info would be appreciated (and should probably be added to the article). Thanks in advance! Srajan01 04:56, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What happened to Constanze Manziarly? 

message: Prior to reading this article, I have never seen the spelling Manziarly, but her name was always spelled without the R, as Manzialy, in various books. Also since she was born in Innsbruck, and presumably died at the age of 25, how and when did she become a cook for Antonescu? There is a claim that she was recommended to Hitler by him.

message: Hi @Blackshod, I note that you've undone my revert of your article move from RAF Chicksands to MOD Chicksands, but with no explanation as to why other than to say MOD Chicksands is the correct name. Whilst MOD Chicksands may be the correct name for the site now, this article is about the historic use of the site by the RAF, not the current use. So its not the correct name for the article. Joint Intelligence Training Group is the article which covers the post-RAF and current use. If a name change is required then it is that article that should be moved. 
On the name change itself, can you provide a source to demonstrate that the name is MOD Chicksands? There seems to be several names in use -
