Augsburg

And Goering's order was, okay, Galland, you've got to prove to us that the 262 is the fighter aircraft that you think it is.

And you're going to do that by defending the airspace over southern Germany and defending the Messerschmitt production works at Regensburg and Augsburg and so on.

So they went down there.

And the infrastructure, by the time they get down there, I won't say it's gone, but yeah, you're right.

So we took them to two teams in Germany.

We started off at FC Augsburg.

For week one, they played against FC Augsburg U16s.

They stayed in the FC Augsburg Academy.

They ate at the Academy.

They basically loved the German life for a week with FC Augsburg.

I think it opened the minds of the kids as well.

I was part of the traveling party that was with the team all the time.

Rome had its own candidate it wanted on the throne, but that meant not alienating electors like Frederick.

So a compromise was reached, with Luther agreeing to be questioned in the German city of Augsburg.

But while this was safer than Rome, it was still a bit dicey.

After just three days, Luther fled back to Wittenberg.

Still, Luther never quite managed to slip into total obscurity.

He still worked on his German translation of the Bible, a project that would help codify the written German language.

He also took part in drafting the Augsburg Confession, the 1530 document that solidified the split between Lutherans and Reformists, although he was far from the only author.

But mostly, he settled down, marrying an ex-nun and slowly drifting into ever-madder theories.

In the end the triumph of the Protestants was so far secured that they forced their opponents in 1552 to yield to the Convention of Passau, by which it was arranged that a diet should be held as soon as possible for a general pacification.

That diet, which was assembled at Augsburg in 1555, met under remarkably favorable circumstances.

Charles V., baffled and disappointed, had retired from the scene, and had left behind him as his representative his more conciliatory brother Ferdinand, who was already king of Hungary and Bohemia, and was his destined successor in the German possessions of the House of Austria.

Both he and the leading men on either side were anxious for peace, and were jealous of the influence which Philip, the son of Charles V., and his successor in Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands, might gain by a continuance of the war.

About a hundred monasteries are said to have fallen victims in the Palatinate alone, and an almost equal number, the gleanings of a richer harvest which had been reaped before the Convention of Passau, were taken possession of in northern Germany.

The ecclesiastical reservation applied to a different class of property, namely to the bishoprics and abbeys held immediately of the empire.

Here too the Protestants found an excuse for evading the Treaty of Augsburg.

The object of the reservation, they argued, was not to keep the bishoprics in Catholic hands, but to prevent quarrels arising between the bishops and their chapters.

Yeah.

Well, for example, where we were in Augsburg, Germany, it had a large military establishment there, right? American military.

And so, of course, with the families, they have these families.

family housing.

Most was born at Augsburg, Bavaria, February 5, 1846.

According to his memoirs, he early found it necessary to resist the tyranny of a stepmother and the miserable treatment of his master.

as a bookbinder apprentice at a very early age he took to his heels and went on the road of the world where he soon came in conflict with revolutionary ideas in the labour movement that greatly inspired him and urged him to read and study it might be more appropriately said that he developed a ravenous appetite for knowledge and research of all the works of human science At that time, socialistic ideas had just begun to exercise great influence upon the thinking mind of the European continents.
