There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

I watch part of it. I know the general history of the Indian wars. White man massacred Indians, move them away from their lands to areas of the USA with very little natural resources for the Indians to survive. White man making treaties and agreements with Indians and then breaking those treaties and agreements: hence why Indians say White man has forked tongue.

It's about three hours too long to watch in a single sitting. I skipped through liberally but the segments I watched seemed to search for a balanced telling of a complex story. I live in Montana and the Indian Wars, as much as Lewis and Clark, the upper Missouri River fur trade and the gold rush of the 1860s, is an important part of the state's early history.

Slightly off topic, but if you want a balanced book about the Indian Wars (post American Civil War), I would suggest The Earth is Weeping by Peter Cozzens.

Fun fact; the Confederacy had a Native American serving as a brigadier general during the ACW.

Coincidentally, I came across that article just a few days ago when I happened to be looking up the name of the character that Chief Dan George played in The Outlaw Josie Wales, which was Lone Watie. It mentioned that Stand Watie was partially the inspiration for the movie character.

Cheers
