Finding paragraph#1
In World War 2 there was alot of weapons used im gonna talk bout the types. One of them was walking on ground with guns bascilly a regular war on foot. The mostly main hand guns were Beretta Modello 1934: A fine compact pistol adopted as the Italian service pistol before World War II, has become one of the most popular collectors' pistols.
Beretta Modello 1935
FN Model 1910: Developed before World War I, many M1910s were in service worldwide during World War II, and the type was produced for Luftwaffe aircrews during German occupation of Belgium from 1940-1944. This pistol is what was used to initiate the First World War (The assassination of Archduke Ferdinand of Austria)
Browning HP: A 9 mm pistol in service with many nations prior to World War II, and which was produced during the occupation for German forces. Additionally led to Canadian production for the Allies. The HP continues in production today but has been supplanted in many cases by the Czech CZ-75B 9mm.
CZ vz 38: Entering service with the Czech army when Czechoslovakia collapsed, the design was not overly successful, and served in second-line duties during World War II.
Enfield No.2 Mk.1: Common name for Revolver No 2.
Glisenti Model 1910: A less-successful design which was the standard Italian sidearm in World War I. Many remained in service in World War II.
Inglis High Power: A Canadian re-engineering of the Browning High Power.
Luger P 08: Standard German pistol from 1908 to 1942, the Luger remained in widespread German service through the war and was manufactured until 1942.
Mauser C-96
Colt M1911A1: .45ACP calibre pistol of Browning design, standard service pistol of American forces until recent replacement by the Beretta 92FS (M9) in the late 1980s, but still in limited usage by the US armed forces.
M1917 revolver: A .45ACP cal revolver developed for service with United States forces in World War I, but was still in service with the Military Police through World War II.
M1942 Liberator: A covert operations pistol ordered by the OSS for dropping into occupied territories. It was a single-shot weapon of incredibly simple nature.
Nagant M1895: The Nagant M1895 Revolver was a seven-shot, gas-seal revolver designed and produced by Belgian industrialist Léon Nagant for Tsarist Russia. The M1895 started to be replaced by the more modern Tokarev semi-automatic pistol in 1933 but was still produced and used in great numbers during World War II.
Vis: Service pistol of the Polish forces entering World War II, remained in production for the Waffen-SS through 1944.
Revolver No.2
Beretta Modello 1935

The Second Battle Of El Alamein
The battle opened at 2140 hours on October 23 with an sustained artillery barrage. The initial objective was the Oxalic Line with the armour intending to advance over this and on to the Pierson Line. However the minefields were not yet fully cleared when the assault began.
On the first day the assault to create the northern corridor fell three miles short of the Pierson line. While further south they had made better progress but were stalled at the Miteirya Ridge.
On October 24 the Axis commander General Stumme died of a heart-attack and General Ritta von Thoma took command of the Axis forces, while Rommel was ordered to return to Africa, arriving on October 25.
For the Allies in the south, after another abortive assault on the Miteirya Ridge, the attack was abandoned. Montgomery switched the focus of the attack to the north.
There was a successful night attack over the 25-26th. The Axis counter-attack failed. The Allies had lost 6,200 men against Axis losses of 2,500, but while Rommel had only 370 tanks fit for action Montgomery still had over 900.
Montgomery felt the the offensive was losing momentum and decided to regroup. There were a number of small actions but by October 29 the Axis line was still intact.
Montgomery was still confident and prepared his forces for Operation Supercharge. The endless small operations and the attrition by the Allied airforce had by then reduced Rommel's effective tank strength to only 102.
The second major Allied offensive of the battle was along the coast, initially to capture the Rahman Track and then take the high ground at Tel el Aqqaqir.
The attack began on November 2 1942. By the 3rd Rommel had only 35 tanks fit for action. Despite containing the British advance, the pressure on his forces made a retreat necessary.
However the same day Rommel received a "Victory or Death" message from Adolf Hitler, halting the withdrawal. But the Allied pressure was too great, and the German forces had to withdraw on the night of November 3-4.
By November 6 the Axis forces were in full retreat and over 30,000 soldiers had surrendered.
The battle was Montgomery's greatest triumph. He took the name "Lord Montgomery of Alamein" when he was raised to the peerage.
The success of his plan led Montgomery to prefer overwhelming superiority in all his subsequent battles, leading to a reputation, with some, for being overcautious.
The Torch landings in Morocco later that month marked the effective end of the Axis threat in north Africa.
This tells about what happened when it happened and what they did in this war. This quote also gives you facts.

The origins of the Second World War are generally viewed as being traced back to the First World War (1914-1918). In that war Germany under the ultra-nationalistic Kaiser Wilhelm II along with its allies, had been defeated by a combination of the United Kingdom, United States, France, Russia and others. In the Pacific, war was not formally declared between the belligerents until after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. (See: Greater East Asia War). However, there was active fighting dating back to the 1930s, the cause of which can be seen in the political fragmentation and weakness of China combined with a strong Japan with a militaristic and expansionist ideology.
In the 1920s, China fragmented into warlordism in which there was a weak central government, and Japan was able gain influence in China by imposing unequal treaties with what remained of the central government. This situation was unstable in that if China dissolved into total anarchy these agreements would be unenforceable while if China was able to strength, the strong China would be able to abrogate those agreements.
This talks about the allies that joined the U.S and how china attacked pearl harbor and that what started a war and that they are tryin to make them sign an agreement.
