The original 1944 movie of the Memphis Belle

The Memphis Belle - A Story Of A Flying Fortress (1944)

Memphis Belle, the bomber
Memphis Belle is the nickname of a Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress during the Second World War that inspired the making of two motion pictures: a 1944 documentary film, Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress, and a 1990 Hollywood feature film, Memphis Belle. The aircraft was one of the first B-17 United States Army Air Forces heavy bombers to complete 25 combat missions with her crew intact.^[1] The aircraft and crew then returned to the United States to sell war bonds.^[2] As of 2014, the aircraft is undergoing extensive restoration at the National Museum of the United States Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio.

Some comments from the YouTube link:

The video title is wrong. The Memphis Belle completed its 25th mission in 1943. Anyway I love the Memphis Belle. My favourite B17 ever!

This is original footage of the Memphis Belle's last mission so it can't be made in 1944 unless you mean it was shown in 1944.   

+WarBird Productions yes the final mission of the belle was 1943 but the documentary was made in 1944 so the video title is not wrong

Obama Surrogates SPEARHEADING “War On Cops.” What’s Their Real Agenda?

"WHEN Senator Obama catapulted (seemingly) out of nowhere into the White House, he promised to “heal the racial divide”, over and over again. Yet, it was at a time when blacks were enjoying steadily increased upward mobility, some even more so than whites. Yes, there are enumerable poor whites too!

"THE question dawned to some of us “knuckle-draggers”: What “wrongs needed to be righted”, when so many advancements for blacks – particularly, its growing middle class – were visible, other than those whipped up by professional race-baiters who are perpetually aggrieved, hyper-charged and highly paid hucksters? Always at the ready, they have many thousands of foot soldiers on tap. To what end? Wait. Read." . . .

"In a video posted to YouTube on Tuesday, a Black Lives Matter activist declares that it’s now “open season” for killing white people and police officers. Showing an image of black people standing on the U.S. flag, the host of the BlogTalkRadio program talks about “picking off” police officers.

“ 'And,” the host says, “there’s nothing” that white people can do about it. “His day is up,” the unidentified host adds, speaking of white people." . . .

Bergdahl faces “Misbehavior before the enemy” charge

Bowe Bergdahl to Face Rare Military Charge



"Since his return to the U.S. in 2014, there’s been much speculation over which charges (if any) Bowe Bergdahl, alleged military deserter and former Taliban captive, would have to face. Tough criticism came from some of his fellow servicemen who believe Bergdahl is a deserter.
"A new report from the Associated Press via the Houston Chronicle says that Bergdahl will face one charge that’s extremely rare:

Military selects rarely used charge for Bergdahl case
Military prosecutors have reached into a section of military law seldom used since World War II in the politically fraught case against Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the soldier held prisoner for years by the Taliban after leaving his post in Afghanistan.
Observers wondered for months if Bergdahl would be charged with desertion after the deal brokered by the U.S. to bring him home. He was — but he was also charged with misbehavior before the enemy, a much rarer offense that carries a stiffer potential penalty in this case.
“I’ve never seen it charged,” Walter Huffman, a retired major general who served as the Army’s top lawyer, said of the misbehavior charge. “It’s not something you find in common everyday practice in the military.”

Bergdahl could face a life sentence if convicted of the charge, which accuses him of endangering fellow soldiers when he “left without authority; and wrongfully caused search and recovery operations.”

"And then there is the matter of so much hysteria over Syrian refugees when Christians persecuted in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East have been refused entry to the United States.

Expediting National Suicide with 'Refugees'  "Should the United States take in (even more) Syrian refugees?

"No. "And here’s why. "We have already committed to accepting thousands of Syrians over the course of the next five years.  So the decision to bring Syrians to our country is not one merely being debated, it is, regrettably, already well underway. "(It is regrettable to have to say “regrettably” when talking about this, but Muslims pose a unique threat to free people everywhere.) "By the end of 2016, the State Department anticipates we will have brought as many as 10,000 Syrians to the United States. It’s safe to assume that number is low since just last month the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) submitted the names of more than 16,000 refugees from Syria for resettlement in the United States. Either way, this is just the beginning. The State Department expects the numbers to “surge” over the few years. "Numbers aside, the issue of Syrian refugees must be put into a larger context. (And, just for the record, the word refugees really should be put in quotes, as will be explained later.) "First, everyone must ask why so many Islamic nations are refusing these refugees.

The President Would Rather Not Talk about the Roots of the Refugee Crisis

"President Obama is up in Alaska, talking about changing the name of Mount McKinley, while this massive human tragedy is unfolding in the Middle East and in Europe.

"Barack Obama’s decision to pull American troops out of Iraq, with happy talk about how he was ending a war, turned out to be a bitter mockery when the policy in fact opened the doors to new wars with unspeakable horrors in the present and incalculable consequences for the future.

"The glib rhetoric that accompanied the pullout of American troops from Iraq was displayed once again when the rise of ISIS was dismissed as just a junior-varsity team trying to look like a serious threat. But now that ISIS controls a big chunk of Iraq and a big chunk of Syria, it is the Obama foreign policy that looks like the work of a junior-varsity team." . . .

Uncle Sam says you better eat your lunch.

Father Government’s Multimillion Dollar Plan to Trick Kids Into Eating School Lunches   " . . .The U.S.D.A. wants to trick your kids into eating school lunches and have come up with some ideas. They could put these ideas in a memo and send it to schools but have instead decided to set up training programs at great expense. Why do with a memo what you can spend millions to do?

"Don’t take this wrong, kids need to eat healthy and good ideas are welcomed but why is it when Big Government does it, it’s an expensive failure?

"CNS News reported that government employees now outnumber those employed in manufacturing by 1.8 to 1 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. It’s good news for unions but it’s not good for America.

"Government gives us unfettered Big Government control and employees who are virtually unaccountable. Speaking of unaccountable employees, the Agriculture Secretary is spending tax dollars on trying to control what our children eat. They mean well but they don’t know what they are doing.

"They have added fruits and vegetables to the processed school lunches and eliminated deserts and other foods children enjoy. A lot more of the lunches are ending up in the trash." . . .

USA Today Reporter Covering Scott Walker Campaign Signed Recall Petition

"Scott Walker is no stranger to political challengers or an adversarial press.

"But what does it do to Walker’s national political aspirations when a homegrown reporter who once signed a petition to recall the Governor, happens to be covering his presidential bid for a nationally circulated paper?

"Tuesday, The American Mirror reported Gannett reporter Madeleine Behr, political writer for USA Today, signed a petition to recall Walker in 2011.
