Thank you for just telling the history as it is. not censoring or trying to "modernize" any of it. This was very cool and I learned some things I didn't know!
ANTHONY FOKKER (yet it is pronounced f*cker) Anthony Fokker was a Dutch engineer during WW1 and made biplanes for Germany. He was the top engineer of WW1 He made a machine gun that could synchronize the shots in a 1 in 14th shot of a window. Clever Fokker
The British built one, tested it and found the idea was shit. The French built something the same called the SPAD S.A. they and the Russians put a hundred of them into service!!!
