For those wondering, the body on the thumbnail is of a dead sailor who was part of the franklin expedition in 1845. Long story short, 120 men lost their lives in the Canadian arctic.

[@armarmadillo]

I think it's a shame that the decision was made to destroy Hitler's bunker. It was a historical monument to the fall of the Third Reich. Today, seeing those underground rooms in the center of Berlin would be a first-class tourist attraction.

[@jessekauffman3336]

You can’t erase the past no matter what you destroy.

[@Brianna_M_]

Fact that you used a picture completely unrelated to ww2 and or Germany.... that image is from the Franklin Expedition....

[@johnhopkins6658]

Back in the late 70s I worked in London with a chap who did his national service at R.A.F. Maston in Kent. He told me that, in the 50s, they buried Spitfires in a quarry there. Lots of legends of buried Spitfires around.

The pic of body on the opening is a frozen sailor in Canadian north

[@bolrogretro]

British sailors from HMS Bulldog captured the first naval Enigma machine from U-110 in the North Atlantic in May 1941, months before the United States entered the war and three years before the US Navy captured U-505 and its Enigma machine.

[@markkeller9378]

U505 sits in the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. I saw it 40 years ago, and again 2 weeks ago in its new “wing” in the museum. Priceless. You can still see the shelling it took from the American ships. It is open to take the tour inside of the sun as well. Excellent job by the museum to surround it with the entire story and all the facts of the events and of that time in history.

[@markwright4385]

Did they find the USS Hammann next to the Yorktown? It was a fletcher class destroyer that was tied up to the Yorktown trying to put out her fires during Midway battle when Hammann was cut in two by a japanese torpedo. Went down with all hands, or nearly all hands. I built a model of the Hammann and read its story on the box.

[@martinefriend]

my grandfather served on the HMS Rodney and his ship sank the bismark

[@BabyFarkMcIsaak]

I had the honor to meet one of the operation Berhard counterfeiters, a slowakian KZ(concentration camp) survivor, who gave a testimony at our school. It was a fascinating story.

[@oldermusiclover]

OH those LOVELY Spitfires same with Mustangs so so want to go up in one

[@Izannaziza]

Bletchley park was up and running with an enigma machine years before the Americans captured U-505 with a enigma on board.

[@tacticalops4]

Sad to think of how all the veterans of the war will all be gone soon🥲

[@viking4130]

The USS Yorktown was sunk by our own torpedoes after being abandoned by her crew due to battle damage.

[@BootsEditor11]

I visited the Uboat in Chicago. Not noted here, it wasn’t brought in by train because of its giant size, but rather floated up river and across the Great Lakes and planted on the shore next to the Field Museum. It was outdoors at the time of my visit, about 1997. Apparently they built it a nice home and shined it up.

[@spitfireboy1]

The Burma Spitfire project did find buried boxes. they sent down cameras and the one box they managed to access was seemingly full of water. The project continued to find more hits however they were unable to excavate due to critical poweand data lines being overhead in the ground

[@neocat81]

this is fascinating!! thank you for sharing this. it makes me wonder how much of these treasures ended up in private collections? in some attic some where until taken to a yard sale or second hand store. maybe even thrown away because they don't know the significance. knowledge is lost so easily.

[@johnnyallred3753]

Very informative video thank you!.

[@paytonwilliams4352]

We finally get to see what Paul Allen’s collection looks like

[@sirosisofliver1356]

Charels B. McVay III? why did you post a poicture of the actor Stacy Keach??? This one thing aside, your presentation was briliant, and informative, thank you very much for all your hard work and this presentation of it.

[@user-co9zn3bt4i]

Tk u for letting me know alot of history again that is great

[@mickeykyrle4240]

Nothing can be hidden forever!

[@vilo_h5541]

You put a mustache on on exhumed body from the Franklin expedition to look like you know who. Pull the other one.

[@shawn8353]

I love history.

[@viking4130]

We got the Enigma machine and its code book of daily setting from the U 505. The British, at Bletchly park, broke the Enigma code and shared this information with the USA.

[@paulcombee2209]

Very interesting!! 👌 Thanks 👍 🇺🇸

[@ArcticMenace22]

My great great grandfather was the head boiler maker on The Hood.

[@Loyalist231]

You mean that's the same submarine I've visited here at the museum in Chicago Illinois USA. I was there watching as they were adding it to the museum.

[@Davofromdownunder65]

Yamashitas treasure was found but the person who found it mysteriously died, he was a Philpino by the name of Rogelio Roxas (pronounced Rohas)

[@DivaMomochi]

I visited the U505 when i was much younger. I remember them telling my 6'3" grandfather to watch his head. He then immediately hit his head.

[@BobBob-up8fz]

Japan: "We sunk a massive Ship. What you gonna do now?! Uss indiapolis: "Jokes on you."

[@streetvan1997]

Btw the US Forces stole tons of art and items as well. It’s a dark part of the war. There were many. It was t systematic like what the Nazis did but US serviceman could mail back almost anything free of charge. It’s well known that many trophies of war were mailed home in this way. Firearms. Weapons. Artwork. Gold. Silver and so much more was stolen and sent home. It’s good that at least wars these days are a little better at not allowing this to happen on such a large scale. It’s such a horrible shame that war is still happening constantly. Just never ending humans destroying others.

[@robingamel9788]

Great, very inclusive sone are relatives of mine, thank you.

[@Abyssiumatic]

Charles B. McVay III ( the picture of him is actually of Stacy Keach )

[@HiddenHistoriesExposed]

Captivating and interesting

[@tl337]

Stealing from thieves is the way of the world.

[@robertbowers9856]

I hope the Great Synagogue of Vilna treasure will remain safe in light of today's events

[@aipaloovik]

The Amber room, the Spitfires, the Yamashita gold, and the Nazi gold train were not discovered. If you're going to have a theme, please stick to it. So only 11 of 15 were discovered.

[@Cryptix-Savage]

Hitler wasn't in the bunker Eva was

[@davegoodwin1950]

The amber room is either in shady Switzerland or The Vatican

[@brianfranklinlee8490]

Grrreat documentary.

[@ValleyProud916]

I wonder why they never brought those bodies home from that artic expedition.

[@aaronp9928]

That was a front Hitler bunker also hilter was long gone weeks before certain people said he left. He went to Argentina for sure and never died in April of 1945

[@pedrojamalserrano4008]

The best investment in Germany, Italy and Japan entire lands were combat zones and buffer zones at the same time for international land use zoning plan.

[@user-zy1nf2yf7y]

Amazing how the Soviet Russians communist China etc are never condemned for their evil atrocities Yet most countries see them as saviors of the oppressed. So the so called oppressed are no different to the evil they condemn

[@KnightOfBOS2287]

May he rest in piece, we need to raise awareness to scuicde

[@fordfairlane662dr]

This was a great and interesting video!

[@playasdetijuas]

Hurler went to Argentina. Unfortunately he died peacefully.

[@nancybeingnancy3081]

#2 is eerie ALL of it

[@quentindevlin2391]

So how the hell is the uss Yorktown sunk but somehow served in the Vietnam War and now a museum

[@trisha7976]

My grandparents left Germany in 1910 because her parents hated my Italian grandfather. I wish they hadn't changed their last name at Ellis Island.

[@dougosullivan7111]

If that train is true I'm sure whoever buried it went back to get it. Why bury it to never go get it. Within 5 years of the end of the war that gold was gone and the train probably dismantled

[@vktravellog1242]

#1 should be that hitler didnt commit suicide and escaped to Argentina

[@booch9109]

U5 oh 5

[@williamflanagan1971]

Ĥas anyone considered the Vatican vaults for the Amber toom Those passports were not cheap.

[@user-tn2pe7uf2d]

He didn't take his own life he was sent to Argentina

[@eclipseUFO]

So they did find it after all these years before the Cold war, WW2

[@paulaharrisbaca4851]

Of course, while 114 German sailors survived the sinking of the Bismarck, only 3 English sailors survived the sinking of the HMS Hood. I guess it's because the Hood sank incredibly fast. Hard to tell, although I am quite sure there are hundreds of lengthy scientific and naval historian treatises on the subject. I always thought that the Amber Room was packed poorly and it stuck to itself and when some people found the walls stuck to each other and crates, the Allies who probably saw no problem with bombing monasteries in Italy, saw no reason to preserve the Amber Room, if they even knew what the hell they were.

[@vadusnisky31]

You can't destroy an idea

impressive leader and construction sites

[@johncamp7679]

The Hoxne hoard guy, yeah I’ll take the money for the amount of gold, but the hammer I want 15 million for it.

[@Wizardhumanboy]

In the Netherlands the biggest part of the war happened

[@WadeRaney-vv5oi]

[@VictorChan-fe7ch]

[@nicholasparker3545]

the Bismarck ship was name after Otto von Bismarck the chancellor of Germany

[@icarusairways6139]

[@user-st7nu3ij3v]

The enslaved inmate forgers who were highly skilled and therefore valuable to the Nazis risked their lives by introducing flaws into the which the Germans did not notice but the English did. What discrepancy there was must have been so subtle and each stroke of the pen could have ended in death ultimate expression of resistance and high intelligence

[@MDMiller60]

Some points.

[@WarLeaks2024]

the bischmark was damaged and coulldnt push itself forward the engine was out, it parked itself between a canyon and mountains to stay uncovered, untill they found him and started to throw bombs

[@markburd8541]

you mean Gdansk Poland not kaliningrad Russia {in reference to Konigsburg }

[@pegnewsarepta3589]

How could people allow hirler do what he did if you were HUMAN.

[@bukasb]

why did they make my man john torrington into hitler let my man rest in peace please 😭

[@gauravbhandari2952]

[@jimkemplin9079]

Everybody knew where that was right from the beginning

[@dankest1]

[@victorcontreras9138]

We still need to find the treasure of treasures! -- the Holy Grail 🎗️

[@pedrojamalserrano4008]

I am after with the land use plan of Germany, Italy and Japan after World War 2. Exotic projects should arise there quick and charge to international investors worldwide. They all should spend the stored money in largescale quickly to speedily complete exotic projects well smoothly onward years 2023.

What about the garden of Eden then? Vanity all vanity

[@melbourne-heat.69-71]

What my dad was in World War II he brought home a Nazi helmet with lightning bolts on the side it's all Black and a German Ruger..Only dropped once..He never fired it and as a Vietnam veteran I never fired it myself..I have the Walther P38 I think that's a much better gun.I came home with a lot of stuff from Vietnam and I'll leave it at that..😮 I'll probably hand it down to my oldest son..My grandfather was in World War 1 he brought home a BAR-and his uniform and hat now an old man that rifle feels like it weighs 40 lbs. now..When I was younger I took it to the gun range all the time.. I think Bonnie and Clyde stole three of them from the military armory where they keep the guns and ammunition.. after they shot them both at the back of the car the only thing you saw was shotguns and handguns I always wondered what happened to them 3-BAR'S..🤔

[@robbieadams1865]

Man was flat out right and a goddamn hero. o/

[@daniellafferety4025]

It just occured to me how religious the people of the early 20th century were. Do grave robing war dead was to say the least deadth by fiering squad. So if hiter,or himler had lots of steal, lead lined coffin houliwed out during production the 3rd rick could have poured liquid gold, or maybe fine poudered gold, sliver,platinum into the cavities. Possibly the lides were pur gold. The bottom of the casket could have cash,or dimonds,and gems. So the natzi could rest in his native earth plounder gold from peoples teeth. For eternity, or untill the rick dug up the graves.
