Social Security Plan for Farmers Would Bring Rural Workers In
Murray Benedict argues farmers should be included in Social Security via a self employed plan. Under his proposal a farmer with $400 annual net income would pay 8 dollars yearly, gain old age and survivor benefits, and have a stamp book option to time payments, improving retirement security for rural workers and reducing charity reliance.

Blonde Aviatrix Orchestrated Death Flight for Germany
In Nuernberg a dramatic wartime tale unfolds about Hanna Reitsch and a proposed death by own action plane to repel invasion. The plan envisioned a 2000 pound bomb torpedo in a pilotless glider bomb, aimed to sink ships, with Reitsch as chief test pilot. Hitler wavered on endorsing the scheme as Luftwaffe officials questioned its German-ness and feasibility.

Hanna Reitsch last pilot out of Berlin before capitulation
The German test pilot Hanna Reitsch describes herself as five feet four and a half inches tall, 109 pounds with blue eyes and a scar on her nose. She recalls flying the V-1 and setting glider records while staying in the Reich Chancellery bunker with Hitler and his circle during Berlin’s final days. Hitler ordered her and Lt. Gen. Ritter von Greim to leave to seek Luftwaffe aid and to block Hitler’s rival Heinrich Himmler from becoming Fuehrer. She flighted the last plane out of Berlin, making it unlikely Hitler could have escaped.
