OK, I'm going to try the timed version. Let's see how I do. |

Hmmm. 2123 out of 2500. 22 right on the first try, out of 25.
2 of my 3 misses I was able to immediately correct. Not sure I liked the way a few of the questions were phrased. For example the question of who had the initial idea for the German "Sichelschnitt" (got it wrong on the first try, corrected immediately -- knew the answer, but was thrown off by the question). Or the use of the 88's at Arras (got it right, but only because I was able to identify it as a "trick question"). And I'm a bit groused about the Hitler quote with two blanks. Says the answer is "plural". So I put two words in the answer (one for each of the blanks). BOTH of the words I used were correct -- I gave the complete and correct answer. But evidently it can only accept one word in the answer (put in the word to fill either blank, but not both). That said, I was clearly wrong, with no excuses, on the question of the Allied General ordering the pincer counter-attack. -Mark
