Very good analysis, but you are killing the names... Please research the acurate way to say Model, Konev, Kluge etc.

I have read Glantzts book on Operation Mars a couple of times, very good book.

keep on revising nazzie boy

@16:53 one would expect that a history presenter of all people would be able to pronounce it correctly and not "calvary" !!

The U.S.S.R. , isn't the only nation on earth that would have survived vast losses like the Soviets suffered . The U.S.A. , would have swallowed up the wehrmacht . THAT'S IF THEY COULD EVER DEVELOP A MILITARY THAT CAN CROSS AN OCEAN , LAND AN INVASION FORCE , SUPPLY IT ACROSS AN OCEAN AND GAIN AIR SUPERIORITY/SUPREMACY AND MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE SKIES . Great Britain , is another nation that would never have surrendered no matter the losses . Like you said , the Nazis had a very good army but they had a WHOLE LOT OF WEAKNESSES .

Kluge is pronounced kloo-ga.

did u watch 1942: unknown battle?

Well done. Lots of illuminating color added by the host’s comments.

Russian offensive strategy has remained un changed since WWII. As in WWII, Russia just uses, “throw a lot of tanks and men at the enemy” approach. No real maneuver. No deception. Even in the war in Ukraine, Russian commanders do not value the lives of their men.

The narration of this video, apart from being very clear and easy to understand, seems to be plainly a reading from some already existing book, and if this is indeed the case, it is not that impressive, as it relies on someone else's creativity.

6:51 well in that case you just get some diapers

German 1942 cancelled airborne operation at Patumi? Any more info on this???

Kluge. Hard “g” , hard “g” broh

Well researched and narrated. Just work on pronounciation of German and Russian names. Not Operation Bagrayshun... Ba gra tee on.

Atrocities committed by Russians are nothing in comparison to atrocities committed by Germans - only in Poland Germans murdered 6 millions of Polish citizens

Ukraine campaign is being run much the same way as the soviets did, just on a smaller scale, Russians bit off more than they could chew once again. I don't remember hearing Heinrici's name in this vid, he ran the 9th Army under von Kluge. Rzhev area battles lasted from 41-43, basically wore down and ate the main strength of the Germans, kept AG Centre pinned down, enabled Stalingrad op to proceed as planned, which became a rather nice bonus for the Soviets.

quote about russian nature @25:00 hits different these days 😬

learn how to pronounce Russian words, please; this is hard to listen to.

Great info. The ai/bot reading the script is brutal. If it's a person, find someone else.

02:10. "inferior design". Let's see. Christie and Torsion Bar suspension. High velocity heavy gun. Strategically sloped armor. I guess those "inferior designs" are what caused the generals on the front to tell Hitler to clone the T-34, because Germany had NOTHING AS GOOD. I'll give you radios and optics, but those are not DESIGN elements.

Even today its the exact same. Soldiers eager for SHTF scenarios because they cant function as civilians and expect a short 4 years to pay for the rest of their life. Hence they convince us that invading someone else's land is "thank you for your service" lol i cant even afford rent, what have the soldiers done to make my life better by invading another country?

all the bad propaganda I have heard over the years about model has now been balanced by this history documentary. He was brilliant there's no doubting that. Hindsight truthful facts are always late to emaeag.✌️☘️

Why do American talk utter nonsense

Guess the Russians still use the same playbook

Napoleon took Moscow!!!

Rzhev is only a bit over 200 km (120 miles) from Moscow. The Russians had to attack it. This was THE frontline. Zhukov was under immense pressure. The only problem is that Germans always build superb defences.

Second to none? In Equipment. Tactics. Efficiency. But the object between two countries at war is.. To win the war. They were second to Russia. In winning the war. Just the wording I would rearrange possibly. Idk? You're doing a good job though. Thanks for your dedication. 👍😎🍀

Hey, ev'erbody- This here's Giggley Cucumberov, and I'm here tonight for Digby's Pre-Heated lubricating Condoms. Yep. 🎉

#IPrefer: the Offensive Oder River 🎉

Did this guy just say "Iron Crotch stick"?, because I distinctly heard "Iron Crotch stick". 😌💙😐

You know what women could post about endlessly? Forgotten Beat-Downs, on YouTewb 🎉

I think it’s often passed over but try and imagine for a moment being involved in those battles. It must have been utterly terrifying.

This is a well done documentary but your pronunciations are terrible. So bad that it's hard to listen to. If you took the time to look up the pronunciations of people/places it would greatly improve your videos.

Very commendable. Needless to say, I have a few opinions to offer. I don't think German logistics were all that bad. They realized going into the war that they would need to regroup and resupply after about six weeks of fighting, that supplies could not keep up with the advancing armies. Also, Russian armor was not necessarily inferior to that of Germany, and it was quite the shock when the Germans first had to fight T-34s. Many German tanks were not that great; Runstedt, in charge of Army Group South in 1941, said he only had 700 tanks and of those only 144 were Mark IVs, the others being Mark II and Mark IIIs...but I am nitpicking. Again, well done!

It’s pronounced ‘Clue-gah’, not ‘kloooj’.

Excellent documentary. Very interesting. You did a good job on this. Thanks for posting.

von Kluge is pronounced Fon Klu Ga, not how you butchered it.

His name Was Not stalin. His name was loseb jugashvili. His mother called him ______.

Your butchering of German names is impeccable.

I only got 2 minutes in before i stopped and started a search for a PURELY unbiased cover of the battle. Dude stfu and get to the battle, i dont need your phblic school-tier coverage of "Why the Germans this" and "oooogaa boooga Germans bad that". Later scrub

"genocide and enslavement" ouch this isn't off to an unbiased start.....DISLIKE

Fletcher won back when the enemy had the best planes, most of the 4:19 experience and the biggest fleet. Once you realize that, and that later admirals had privy to MORE secret Japanese message translations than HE, his early victories are even MORE AMAZING. He also had limited ships too precious to lose so any charge that he was cautious can only come from a too superficial a source. The U.S. Navy was never very honorable in their treatment of good men when they could make up a good scapegoat or just shift blame to protect their sacred cows, no matter how crocked the cows sometimes were.

Fletcher could have totally destroyed the Japanese fleet at Midway but he and Spruance didn't pursue after all their carriers were sunk. The Japanese had no air support after the four carriers were gone so they could have bombed at will and only had to avoid anti aircraft fire. Yet, those two let the remnants get back to Japan.

I always get him confused with John S Pemberton, the Coca Cola guy 😬

The man still wanted to serve.

Nice video, it has a lot of information presented that we usually don't get because it is overshadowed by the bigger battles. Thank you for NOT using a DAMNED ROBOVOICE!

Excellent video!

My father served the USS Heermann (DD532) a Fletcher class destroyer during the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
