Many played various games of cards and other creative word games they could find. If the soldier was a dilligent one he probably would have cleaned and greased his gun and weapons.
Well it would seem obvious that no countries involved in any conflict could take part in any olympic games, reasons as follows: During a global war there would be no venue or infrastructure to cope with it (imagine holding them in a bombed out London or Berlin in 1942?) The "games" would be the easiest way of planting spies The safety of the participants would be at geat risk Where would the participants come from? Too many people in the armed services or war production to provide competitors, officials etc. hailey-nichols was ere

how many years between the olympic games
Although the most recent (2008) games was the 29th Olympiad, only 26 Olympic games have taken place. The Olympic games did not take place in 1916, 1940, or 1944 as scheduled due to the world wars.
This year (Beijing 2008) will be the 30th scheduled modern SUMMER Olympics - the first one was held in 1896 in Athens. HOWEVER the 1916 Berlin games were not held because of World War 1, the 1940 Tokyo games and the 1944 London games were not held because of World War 2. That makes Beijing the 27th games to actually take place. Addition: There have also been 22 Winter Olympics, although the ones in 1940 and 1944 were canceled.So in total there have been 52 scheduled and 47 that have actually taken place.
32 new world records were set and there were also new Olympic records set with 11 just in the 47 athletic events and 20 more in the 34 swimming events. There are also many other records for World Junior, Asia, African, European, Country and individual records
