(Authors note: I am not a Nazi or anything like that just so you know. I have just always been a fan to alternative timeline stories and I am also a huge fan when it comes to World War 2 fiction as well so I deiced to write my own story about it for a change. And what better way is there then inserting ponies into the mix.
