Thread: U.S. had secret 1930 plan to invade Canada

Honestly, I would hope every country had a secret plan to invade every other country. There's no telling when it could be needed...

i really want to see the secret US plan to invade luxembourg.

Me too. It's strategic location in Europe could make it key to any requirement for a future European liberation.

Nobody touches my butter cookies.

Tell me? Would the USN have ever imagined in the 1930's, that it would need to invade Guadacanal? Tarawa? Iwo Jima? If you had shown them pictures of it they would have laughed you out of the conference room.

actually, there was a war plan against japan, and some of those very islands were considered by such ranking officers such as admiral king.

IIRC the plan against the Japanese was that the Battle Fleeet would fight a series of Jutlands all the way to the home islands.
Pearl Harbor pretty much buried that idea.

*sigh* The Colonel already explained this on a thread in the distant past.

A plan to "invade" a country could be for two other reasons other than "kick their ass/take their gas".

Reason 1. Coming to the aid of/reinforcing an already-invaded ally

Reason 2. How do you get to Carnegie Hall?

The Saint Thomas Aquinas Concert Choir from Ft. Lauderdale, FL (of which I am the Bass Section Leader) is going President's Day weekend! We'll be performing Mozart's Regina Coeli and some new piece that isn't very good.

Heh heh...I've always wished someone had a great comeback when that question is asked

I truly hope Canada has the same types of plans for the USA. Never know when a few cookies may need to be tossed...

The plan called for the Canadian 4CMBG to raise the ruckus in Europe, causing a general mobilzation on both sides. We dragged our feet on REFORGER, saying we're trying to calm the situation (yeah, when we're taking pot shots at the Soviets) and then start begging for lift from the Americans (not too much stretch of imagination). Obviously, not too much is available but we send our guys out to American airports and ports just to wait in case something comes up.

And voila, 3 Canadian brigades controlling major communications hub.

One of the more bizzare things is that we bring the beer but forbid our guys to even have one beer, telling the Americans, it's going to go to waste.

And we know Americans can't handle Canadian beer.

Of course with so many of America's forces outside the country at the moment now could be just the time for a sneak attack to reclaim the rebel colonies for the Crown...... Just a thought.......

And make Alanis Morresette and Celine Dion Canadian citizens again? You're on crack?

I think you would be safer engaging our military then our armed civilian population. They atleast have rules of engagement where as we dont

Do you realize how many nut cases they allow to own guns in the U.S. including yours truelly? Far more then our military owns
