Dragonman Covers WWI - Did You Know This About History?

Stopped by my dads today to go over some highlights from World War 1. The amount that he covered is really just a small percentage, as there's so much more to see and learn about. As always, it's imperative that we preserve and teach history so that it doesn't repeat itself. Hope you enjoy this video!

[@alexkalish8288]

I studied WW 1 for 5 years in France because I was clueless about it and was working in NL. I have walked almost the entire front line. I gave my artillery shells to the Taos Jr high history program got to go see Mel . I was an infantry officer in VN and love classic cars but i'm a pre war Packard man. I'll pop by for a visit next month. Cheers -

[@jesscraghead475]

My Grandad was a veteran in WW1 he was wonded before the battle of Aregon I was told. He shook hands with Sargent York the day after he captured all the Germans. When my Grandad was making it back to the lines after he got wonded he picked up a German canteen for the water and donated it to the Honds muslim in his home toun Jetmore Kansas. My Grandad had a hole in his arm from scrap metal and when he was 81 year's old my Grandma was still talking scrap metal out of his neck. He would take me fishing on his land and tell me about the War he was in. I live on that land today in Hogemen County Kansas ( Jetmore) thanks so much for your time.🇺🇲

Very interesting! Ava you are a lucky gal to have a father like that.I would love to come and see this sometime!

[@tannerdefelicis4356]

This is my first time seeing your channel. Didn't know that Dragonman had a second daughter. Very awesome military museum your father invested in. Want to say a compliment to you: you are a gorgeous beautiful woman. Hope you find the man that will treat you like a queen.

[@AvaFlanell]

Thank you

[@BigWorm72]

Dragonman for president! Seriously he has more knowledge and passion for this country than all the others combined.

I learn so much from dragon man Bravo Zulu

[@dpjbdpjb]

Ford also made military vehicles for the Germans in Cologne

[@MyWillypilly]

Ava will fit as a nurse, or gunner

[@paullinkins8121]

That trench warfare must have been brutal -- even 100 years later we're seeing the same defensive method in Ukraine, and it's effective. Great collection.

[@AvaFlanell]

I know...

[@jessielopez6782]

Typical daughter, always taking a shot at good ole Dad!! 😂

[@AvaFlanell]

Lol, and for the record, I didn't really think it was a gas can, okay!

Airforce started Sept. 1947 not 1948

[@daviddichiara9869]

She is gorgeous. I have a crush

[@Learn-more610]

Thanks for sharing. You and Dragonman should dress in WWII uniforms for your next video.

[@AvaFlanell]

Ha, I don't think we'd fit

[@steveedington5231]

i think george washington was promoted to 6 star general also thank you

[@matthewrezuke8130]

Anything from the German military for that time period?

[@loulunetta425]

Thank You Ava. 😄 Those 3 sided trench knives were internationally outlawed for use because the wound never heals. Then it was physically brutal. Now we just evaporate each other.

[@AvaFlanell]

Wow, interesting

Had no idea Dragonman was your dad. You and your sis are lucky girls! Let me know if he wants to adopt a son.

Ava has the Sophia Loren going on.

[@AvaFlanell]

So many people tell me that. I don't really see it though.

I guess Winchester made a lot of non_firearms items. It's a collecting genre

Did you know about the all Filipino US ARMY BATTALION that fought in South Korea? LAGING UNA

Dragonman has the smartest most beautiful daughters.

Smart?

Calm down

[@CandidSailor]

Both are j**ish. Read your history.

[@opieshomeshop]

People were not smaller and skinnier in WW1. They were the same as people are now. Maybe not overweight but the issue here is people are going by the available uniforms and then drawing false conclusions. Over the last 100 years collectors have bought uniforms that typically fit them and then sell the uniforms that don't fit them. So the uniforms that have become available on the markets for the last 50 years are small uniforms. You can't draw these types of conclusions and I see this all the time in just about every collectible market whether it's military or otherwise. It's a fallacy. We haven't changed. We are the same as we have always been. My grandfather and his brother both fought in WW1 and they were both 6'6" tall. My greatgrandfather was 6'6" tall. I'm 6 ft, and I'm the smallest in my family.

[@AvaFlanell]

They were shorter by a few inches. That's listed all over the internet. Just because your family was tall doesn't mean everyone was. Also, there's hundreds of uniforms in the museum and they're all small. I don't think that's a coincidence. Men were less obese than they are today.

[@opieshomeshop]

@@AvaFlanell I gues you didn't get what I said but whatever. I dont care what the internet says, they are wrong. People were not shorter than today. Sheesh!
