I do really enjoy it too. Are they releasing chapters or readings in order? I can’t seem to tell. I know I’ve found myself listening to completely different stories at times, but end up enjoying all of em. Am curious if they are being released in order tho or maybe they’re all different and it’s just the familiar narrating voice that has me thinking there’s a storyline for all of em

Thanks for the video sir, a little known part of the war that of German soldiers breaking out of encirclement by the Soviet army. Those who dont know history and try to erase it run the risk of repeating it. Much respect to the soldiers from both sides, my kin folk in the 1st and 2nd WWs in the US Army; my late father Korean and 3 tour Vietnam veteran and to German veterans who survived WWII that I knew as a child growing up on US Army bases in Germany: Mannheim, Karlsruhe, Bad Tolz during the '60s and I was born in Heidelberg: just another Army brat and army vet... RIP Opa. 🙏✌🌍

[@Ronbo1948]

These days the Eastern Front has been reopened - at least in the Ukraine - and NATO nations - including America and Germany are Allies against the Russians. General Patton said this in 1945 - that at some point a German/American against Russia would happen...well it has.

This is also my favorite channel. We must be reminded what war is really like on the human level. No the 30,000 ft view. Kudos.

[@asullivan4047]

Interesting and informative. Excellent photography picture 📷 of the soldier looking thru the observation scope. Enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Class A research project!!! Special thanks to the veteran solders. Sharing personal combat experiences. Making this documentary more authentic and possible. Fighting/perishing/surviving knowing certain death/debilitating wounds were often possible. That's true grit style determination to succeed. Once again the disillusioned/arrogant/Hitler & associates. Weren't overly concerned about the predicaments of the retreating/depleted German military forces. After all there were many 13/14/15 year olds to defend rescue Berlin.

These stories are fantastic, cheers to the narrator who embellishes the story to the point of the listener being there. Is the narrator an AI bot?

[@jimknowlton342]

I enjoy the Bri'ish accent of our German brothers.

[@pcka12]

The narrator has the accent of an educated English person (often called 'received pronunciation') so in an English translation of the original German this is probably the best accent to use.

[@MasterClassComments]

[@cmleoj]

My then wife and I went to a village in Austria, about five years ago, actually this time of year. The place is St Jakob Im Walde, beautiful place. During a nice walk through the village, we happened upon a cemetery, with about twenty graves festooned with German WW2 helmets. Initially I was offended by the martial display, but upon inspection, I realized almost all of the lost lives were 19 or 20 years of age. The tragedy was compounded because almost all of them dies in the final few months of the war. For what? All those young men called up and sacrificed for nothing.

[@sirchromiumdowns2015]

​@@cmleoj The young and old (Volkssturm) were placed in combat to give the leaders of the Reich a few more months of power. The leaders of National Socialism were wicked human beings.

[@jamesflaherty8739]

It is disrespectful to have German helmets there. We both know who put them there, don't we? Let the wrong and the dead rest and don't try to bring them back imo. Their cause was pure evil and I am sure they wish to forget it.

[@cmleoj]

@@jamesflaherty8739 I’m sorry, I don’t understand you. “I am sure they wish to forget it.” Who is “they”? The villagers? The parishioners? I doubt it; the cemetery is prominent and well cared for. Is “they” the dead young men? I don’t know how anyone would gauge their sentiment. The thing is, I suspect there is a lot of general disgust with WW2, but for the soldiers who fought, I don’t see a lot of individual regret. Ex soldiers often twist their perspective like a pretzel to justify their actions. Instead of saying they were fighting for a race-hating leader, they say they were fighting for their families, their comrades. Not so much regret on either side. “They” were just “following orders.

Those audiobook channels keep getting deleted due to copyright, also radicals reporting the channels. I have a feeling this and a couple others I know of could be Russian psyops. Propaganda. The main theme being the apparent "hopelessness" of fighting the Russians. The pronunciation seems like it was translated by a Russian speaker. Maybe even chinese? At least not a native English speaker. Consistently mess up the syntaxes. Mispronounce "us" on all channels. Ect ... This is meant to sow doubt. They think we are all Nazis. Maybe they have a point?
