#282 When destroyed, mortar pit positions went up in the air in a magical splash and all the debris evaporated in atmosphere, leaving no trace of destruction on the ground

#283: Tank drivers could reverse at high speed and traverse obstacles without the use of spotters
#284: Snipers would completely vanish in a 3" depression in the ground in an otherwise totally barren open field.
#285: Bolt action rifles had a maximum effective range of about 20 meters.
#286: The history books were wrong about the Comet being extremely rare during WW2 and having no significant impact on the war. It was actually the main frontline tank of the British.
#287: The US, British, and Soviets all fought on the same battlefield on the eastern front.

#289 Simply by being assigned to the same squad that had served on the lines for a while, new recruits ("90 day wonders, fall in") would instantly become super duper badasses known universally as "vet3". This continued despite every member of the squad eventually being replaced after being reported KIA by the one random guy who got back to base like a track star version of neo from the matrix, sprinting and dodging bullets and tank cannons.
#290 US army ambulances actually held thousands of riflemen waiting to be assigned to squads and were legitimate targets for the Germans.
#291 Despite coming out of the same tent/trench/truck, full replacement squads would be useless idiots against replacement soldiers in squads that were around for a while in stated manner of #289.

#292 British trenches were not garrisonable by axis troops but axis trenches could be used by allied infantry.
