Electric Scotland bares the flags of
several nations. These nations are where many Scots settled in large
numbers. You can also find these flags represented as Allies in WWII.
These flags are more than decoration. They are symbol of unity and
comradeship. The proof is in history itself by the Allied Forces that
came together to fight for freedom in many campaigns. One of these
campaigns was to completely stop a dictatorship that was spreading
through Europe like a cancer. The Nazi Party and WWII are this campaign.
We will walk through WWII with every
nation represented on Electric Scotland. We will learn about the Scots
contributions to the War, from inventions that won the war to brave
Generals and soldiers of Scots heritage and decent. We will learn about
special Regiments like the Blackwatch. Most importantly, we will
experience a great comradeship between Great Britain, the Commonwealths
and the United States.
Why did these countries pull together to
win the Greatest trial of mankind? This series will show the pride and
stubbornness in the people of Great Britain. They refused to give up!
They withstood many tribulations and still remain a free nation! When
you think of the spirit of N. Ireland, South Africa, Canada, Australia
and America, we must take a mirror image of Great Britain for most of
our roots came from there. The next time an American is called a Yankee,
they should be proud because Great Britain made us!
WWII on Electric Scotland is to honor all
veterans of World War II and pay homage to the nations they represented.
Anyone may contribute his or her stories, links or pictures that match
