I remember a previous Osprey April Fools' joke: A mock up of a book "Constitution Class Starships 2250-2320". |

a fantastic 20-disc collection of all the best military music from around the world and through the ages! Being Osprey, I would presume that the 20 discs will be divided roughly as follows: - 12 discs on music of the Third Reich (with special discs on Heer, Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine, Waffen-SS, Fallschirmjaeger, OKH, Panzerwaffe, Volksturm, U-boot crews, more SS, women's auxiliary corps, and general German music)
- 4 discs on British colonial warfare music (split between 18th century, 19th century, early 20th century and Highlander music)
- 2 discs of Napoleonic French music (split between early and late campaigns)
- 1 disc of American military music (covering years 1776-2012)
- 1 disc dedicated to the rest of the world |
