This is a great recounting of the Netherlands and their experience in World War 2. The man speaking is very nice and enjoyable to listen to. Thank you to everyone involved in the making of this film. My Dad was a US soldier and fought in the black forest at the end of the war. Even with his limited involvement he did not talk about it. He was wounded in the fore arm which limited his ability to play piano when he composed.

What a lovely man! I can’t imagine people today being able to suffer and do without necessities like food , electricity etc. like these strong people did! Our society is so spoiled, so many selfish individuals, think only about themselves. I hate to think of it happening here, but it sure seems we are heading for a depression, I only hope people would have the community and morals most had in those days to help others, but it doesn’t seem likely! We live in a “me me” generation. God help us

My great grandmother lived here in the mountains in northern Italy and during the war and occupation she would offer a hiding spot, a warm meal and a place to sleep to anyone who asked. One day she was hiding partisans, the next her house would be filled with Germans. She used to help the resistance by smuggling food and messages, her own husband was a partisan who got deported to Mauthausen, but even though she despised fascism and nazism as a whole she had no hate for the german soldiers themselves. She used to say that even though partisans and Germans were fighting on opposing sides, under the uniform they were all just scared young men forced into something way bigger than them who wanted nothing more than for that war to end, to go back home to their families and live a normal life. Instead they were out killing each other in the streets and in the woods, dying for nothing, and dying like flies. My grandma has a dear memory of a soldier who spoke a bit of Italian and spent a whole afternoon playing with her and talking to her at length about his daughter back in Germany, only to go back down in town the morning after and immediately get killed in an ambush. She remembers his full name to this day. Her own dad was getting tortured in a concentration camp at the time and yet that day is one of the memories that have stuck with her the most, even after dementia, because of how much she cried for that soldier. War is truly hell

The question that remains unanswered is, what tractor did Mr. Blazley (?) have that was big enough to pull the 5-bottom plow that he was welding on. At the time that this picture was made FORD had nothing bigger than 25, maybe 30 horsepower, and to think that he farmed "about 800 acres" is equally improbable. It was not until 1960-1961 that Ford manufactured a tractor (the 6000) that MIGHT have been capable of pulling a 5-bottom plow, so, something is missing, something that was NOT a Ford product.
@kennethhook Жыл бұрын
Good point. Far down in the description might be the awnser: "The Ford Motor Company was concerned that Mr. Blazey did not use Ford equipment (or implements manufactured by Ford) during the harvest. Some of the equipment was International Harvester- a competitor. Ford insisted the harvest scenes be re-filmed with Ford equipment. At this point the harvest was over at the Blazey farm and a new location needed to be found. Ford flew the film crew and Everett Blazey to Calgary, Alberta where grain was still standing and filmed the scene with Ford equipment. Roberta said ‘Dad was wearing a sweater in Alberta and it was way too hot in Canandaigua for wearing a sweater during the harvest’." Hope this helps. Ken Hook, grandson of Everett Blazey.
@trevorn93813 ай бұрын
About the only tractor being built in 1953 that would pull a five bottom plow was the Massey Harris 55 Diesel which produced nearly 60 HP on the drawbar in the Nebraska tests. With a farm that big Blazey likely had one but they probably hid it behind the corn crib while shooting the Ford video.

The kz vision 20 ft trailer has only the fresh water valve. No shutoff to the hot water lines.
@kennethhook Жыл бұрын
Typically there is a bypass value near the water heater to prevent antifreeze entering the water heater. The water heater can be drained by unscrewing the outside plug in the bottom of the waterheater. The bypass valve near the water heater will prevent antifreeze from entering the water heater but allow antifreeze to circulate through your hot water lines. Pump antifreeze through your hot water lines as you do with cold water lines. Hope this helps :)

Oh I miss the days when I was younger and working in the garden, feeding animals, putting up hey, lol and 4H! Nothing more wholesome than living on a farm. I remember watching the neighbor's in the field and the worry of the weather and such! They had a lot of acreage. This brought back good memories! I remember writing a poem for literature class about the fields the seed, the seeds of life and the future of the way we treat mother earth! To bad they didn't get what it was about. Maybe one day we'll learn better to take care of what we have, even people! ❤

In 1958 or thereabouts when Mr. Blazey was ready to retire, 400 acres were sold to the Finger Lakes Race Track. Two years later another 400 acres were sold to Farmbrook for a housing development. A small number of acres were sold for the construction of the Trooper's Barracks. The only remaining structure of the Blazey farm is the cinder block building which is owned by MC Automotive. The cinder block barn (shown in the welding scene) was built in 1946 after the original barn burned down in December of 1945.

Wunderful video we live on a small scale farm, I understand what this video shown. Cuz we been noticing that farming is a gamble game, of planting crops in time, hoping they gotten a good amount of rain, holp they don't die due to drought, same thing with our hay fields, and hopefully we get hay cut, dried and baled and covered before the rain. But it's like my dad said once "if framing was easy, everybody would be doing it" but sides it's a 50,50 change of making good profit lots of people don't want to do it. So instead they whether to live in a city which is fine by me, they can eat food for only God knows how long it's been harvest/ made/ where it came from.

Of note there is a John Blazey tractor dealer 12 miles from Farmington that their website says has been in business since 1935. Also I found that tombstone market of Joseph Wood, died March 22, 1867 as buried in Hathaway Cemetery, in Farmington, NY. It shows up on google maps now surrounded by development. I’ve yet to locate the original Blazey farmhouse. I’m willing to bet Mr Blazey bought his Ford tractors from that Palmyra dealership.

Your welcome Ken. The John Blazey tractor dealership has been in business since 1935. After looking at obituaries, John Blazey is Everett Blazey’s brother. Currently that dealership is in Palmyra. Also of note I came across this lecture from Pat Bolger, who is Everett’s nephew. Eddie Blazey who is in the film also talks. The audio sounds muddy on my tv, but on my iPhone it’s much clearer. Enjoy. This gives additional info about the making of American Farmer. kzbin.info/www/bejne/poLClZyLa8lradE
