Yes, there are tunnels beneath Edmonton, but they are not specifically World War II tunnels. The city has a network of underground tunnels primarily built for utility purposes, including heating and transportation. Some of these tunnels date back to the early 20th century and were utilized during various historical periods, but they are not directly related to World War II activities.

As of November 20, 2003, approximately 150,000 U.S. troops were deployed in Iraq as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. This number included forces from various branches of the military, with additional coalition troops from allied nations also participating in the conflict. The overall troop levels fluctuated throughout the war, influenced by changing strategies and security conditions.

Canada helped to contribute to the war with the battle of britain, liberators (holland) their navy, their air force, Camp X, they Declared war on themselves, they had greater ties with the U.s. They had women in the war, they were food - regional suppliers, as well as suppliers, and homefront supplies. you missed a few things, such as the Commonwealth Air Training Plan, that trained 135,000 pilots and air crew, here in Canada, who came from 40 different Allied nations to learn to fly. Canada not only equipped it's OWN military, with guns planes and ships, but we built all of that for other nations, such as the Indian army who were completely equipped with Canadian made trucks, or the British army that by 1945 was 70 percent equipped with Canadian made rifles and machine guns. We also supplied the Chinese army that was fighting the Japanese in the far east. We built supply ships and naval escort vessels here that were the main life line of food to the U.K. We built our army from a tiny force of less than 3,000 men in 1939 to a two Corps army of 700,000 men that could and did fight in two sperate places at the same time ( Italy from 1943 to 1945, and Europe from June 1944 to May 1945). We took more dead and wounded after the D-Day landings, in the summer of 1944 than either the Brits or the Americans did, and we kept on fighting with out a break for 11 months after the Normandy landings. In some cases, Canadian infantry units were completely wiped out, That means that ALL of the 800 men in a unit had been either KILLED or so badly wounded ,that the unit ceased to exist as a fighting force. In the air, we flew fighters and coastal patrol aircraft and heavy bombers at night on bombing raids into the Occupied Countries. We became the acknowledged "best U-boat Hunters" and sank the most of them of any Alled navy in WW2. By the end of WW2 Canada had the third largest navy in the world, a amazing growth from the beginning in 1939, when we only had total of 6 RCN ships in our fleet. So Yes Canada did much more than her share in WW2 .

Arnold went AWOL from the army primarily due to his disillusionment with military life and a desire to pursue his own ambitions. He felt constrained by the rigid structure of the military and sought freedom to focus on his passion for bodybuilding and acting. His decision to leave was also influenced by personal conflicts and a lack of fulfillment in his military service. Ultimately, this choice led him to achieve significant success in his later career.

The cap badge of the British Parachute Regiment is relatively new as paratroopers did not exist until WW2. So it is a new design that has no historical tradition as common with many of the British regiments.

One source I have says the badge was approved in May 1943.

The badge is a simple design of Wings with a parachute in the center; the parachute being topped by a King's Crown and a Lion on top of the crown. It has a silver finish.

Hitler used technology in his Blitzkrieg tactics via the latest military technology available at the time. He was using armored vehicles and air strikes, which were fairly new types of military technology at the time.

he was the biggest buthole that the canadian government has ever seen.

The Ak-47 is not a weapon issued by the US Army for its combat units. However since it is often found on battlefields around the world, US army troops are often trained in in how to use it.

all of the canadians land was destroyed and bombed

Its a big evil alliance led by a giant floating hand named Masterhand and a giant humanlike being made of psychic energy named Tabuu. His mission is to conquer the universe. Tabuu has unbeleivable power and an army of Primids. Primids are evil little monsters consumed by darkness. They attack with guns, giant boomerangs and green lightsabers. Tabuu has also taken over many worlds and the minds of many bosses from many videogames. Examples are Galleon(a giant monster tank in the desert), Rayquazza(a huge, snake like legendary Pokemon ), and Porky ( a statue of an angry boy who transforms into a spidery robot demon). Also Tabuu has 3 helpers: Wario (Mario's rival), Bowser (a big turtle dinosaur with a spiky shell and fiery breath) and Ganondorf (a human who has the motive to qonquer the world and the power to do it.) Tabuu gave the 3 villians Darkcannons. Darkcannons are big black and yellow guns that shoot black arrows. When one is hit by a Darkcannon arrow, he or she is turned into a trophy. The Subspace Army stole Meta Knight's ship: The Halberd, which is the strongest and most powerful ship in the entire Subspace. The only thing blocking Tabuu's plan is the Smash Bros. characters. ( Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Link, Zelda, Sheik, Sonic, Snake, Pikachu, Lucario, Pokemon Trainer, Captian Falcon, Olimar, Ice Climbers, Fox, Falco, Lucas, Ness, R.O.B., Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Ike, Marth, Samus, Zero-Siut Samus, ect.) Once all of the Smash Bros. guys are Trophies, Tabuu will be able to conquer the universe.

Israel, the USA, Canada, Germany and the Netherlands are the top 5, although, some people may have an other opinion.

They declared war on Japan, Italy and Germany, the axis powers. They were able to declare war themselves rather than be dragged into war with the UK commonwealth. They sure did not like what was happening either. Unfortunately, they were in the same boat as the US. They were just getting over the Great Depression. They had a small military force and not a lot of military equipment. They had to do the same as the US. Build up everything.

I can find many accomplishments of William Lyon Mackenzie and William Lyon Mackenzie King, but I can find nothing written about William Lyon Mackenzie Smith.

The Canadians used a variety of weapons on Juno Beach including the M1917 Enfield rifle, Colt Model 1911 pistol, and Thompson submachine gun. They used many of the same weapons as their American counterparts.

You don't want to ruin something this important so it's best to find a GOOD drycleaners that will dry clean it for you. Don't try cleaning it yourself as wool shrinks and colors can run!

Only one Canadian was executed by the Canadian military during WW2. Private Harold Joseph Pringle was executed for murder 5 July 1945. It's debatable if he actually committed the crime. He had been a problem soldier since his enlistment and had deserted in Italy.

A number of Canadian soldiers were executed by the SS during D-Day. 20 Canadian soldiers were executed on the orders of Brigadeführer Kurt Meyer. The soldiers, from North Nova Scotia Highlanders and the Sherbrooke Fusiliers Regiment, were executed by the 12 SS Panzer Division.

They chose to get involved when the declared war on Germany and Italy on 9-10-39. Later, they declared war on Japan when they attacked the US. (Sure hope there were not a lot of Canadians in Hawaii on vacation then!)

Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman

The economy was better because the president donated a large amount of money for war supplies.
