I appreciate that certain words need not be uttered. George Carlin did a great stand up bit on seven words that shouldn't be said and I'm sure that others can be added however
Battle of the Dikes. Battle of the d i k e s was one of the first engagements of the 104th Infantry Division.
Damned the Torpedo's. Famous movie.
Dick Winters. Ok, the first name dropped off the map.

lol I'll have to look into that. I fixed it. Beaver Much appreciated. I won't post disparaging remarks about all flannel wearing lesbians...Rosey O'Donnell, yes, but she started it. Granted Battle of the Dikes is 104th, FSSF and 1st Canadian and proabably woun't be discussed, it was a point about the default level being too low of a bar for most "Americans" to play limbo with. I would suggest having the filter modify colorto Color...keep them fereners who might slip in from confusin us. My theory is US reenactors should concentrate on the American language and worry less about English. Like the UK forum has to discuss UK soldiers eating taco's out side Camp Eagle, Texas or a Missourian ordering Prairie Oysters at Ft. Dix, NJ. Jim

Got another one, w h o r e house comes out -------------------- house.
In as much as prostitution is legal in many parts of the world and most Army bases had one near by it's going to cause confusion with some posts.
I swear the censor hates me.

Even, please stop talking about politics and racism. Beaver Unfortunatly if someone wishes to open a section on the 93rd ID black wasn't socialy acceptable for manuals during WWII which would alter quotes and web addresses involving Buffalo Soldiers. Just the description of War Department General Order 143 is a prime example. www.buffalosoldiers.com/ColoredTroopsDoc1.htm"The soldiers are damn good soldiers, of whom the nation should be mighty proud." George Patton. Anyone who might be interested, there is a wonderful article on First Sargeant Mark Matthews who served with the 10th Cavalry from 1910 to 1949. www.buffalosoldiers.com/OldestBuffaloSoldier.htmJim

I do stand by the arguement that for the time period we're researching it was socially acceptable and used so much in printed matter the electronic censor should be tweaked. Jim

ok ok.... I just didn't care for someone on this forum calling someone that is running for president a N***er Beaver With the last two letters of that I agree it shouldn't be used. I was going off the original censoring. I still think Colored and Neg_ro (with out the dash) should be un-censored as they make Patton sound like a dork when quoting him. I figure if I've got pictures and links from the 104th and 8th Infantry Divisions using the term other Divisions are going to have it. And just to check...spoon. Jim
