[@jakobc.2558]

Ever heared of allied air supiriority? Yeah even if the bomb doesnt knock out the tank it will shurely give the supporiting infanterie near it one hell of a time. Edit: Also every weapon in the US infanterie arsenal was ether semi or fully automatic(With exception of the M1903 sniper variant). In other words they had the upper hand over the german infanterie with their K98 bolt action rifles.

[@mrwehraboo5478]

Most german tanks in the earlier years of the wars fought with other tanks meanehile the infantry was behind in either halftracks or trucks but mostly in horses

[@burnheretic3950]

@@jakobc.2558 Absolutely wrong. The Germans = FG 42 (machine gun/machine pistol), MP 40 (sub machine gun) and storm 44 (assaulters rifle)(even the luger) . Considered by many to be the best and most devastating semi auto and full auto sub machine guns, assault rifles and machine guns of the war. The allies had all but lost the war till they convinced the Americans to bail them out.

After watching this video, an American would know: - where tank armor is weak and where it is strong - where tanks can and can't shoot - that making it look like something weird is happening will force the tank commander to poke his head out - that shooting will force the tank commander to "button up" - how to use teamwork and cover to get close to an enemy tank While facing up against multiple tanks with infantry support would be far more difficult than facing a lone tank, the application of these principles would still be the key to success. As such, the video does its job.

As silly as it sounds, my squad would form Hunter/Killer groups in Battlefield V, a game set in ww2. We'd outfit with an MMG, or LMG, a couple assault rifles, and a medic, along with a lot of AT weapons. This way we could engage errant squads on foot, or armour as we found it. We employed a lot of these techniques during our time playing. Laying mines in vulnerable areas like enemy resupply points, setting up ambushes with the MMG, and deploying smoke into the face of enemy tanks to blind them, so we could plant explosives on them, or at the very least, drive them off. We did surprisingly well. Granted, it's a game and not real life, but still. It did well.

Silly answer. More like tanks have infantry support because of this. Also it would be silly to have infantry run into a strayed tank and can't deal with it because they don't have this basic training. Finally a lot of stuff happens in a war. Yeah tanks are supposed to be deployed in platoons with infantry support... But just give it a few months of war or a few hours of battle and you can run into very unusual situations: platoon got broken apart or decimated, tank got stuck while infantry retreated...

After watching this video, an American would know: - where tank armor is weak and where it is strong - where tanks can and can't shoot - that making it look like something weird is happening will force the tank commander to poke his head out - that shooting will force the tank commander to "button up" - how to use teamwork and cover to get close to an enemy tank While facing up against multiple tanks with infantry support would be far more difficult than facing a lone tank, the application of these principles would still be the key to success. As such, the video does its job.

So we found out one day that he was afraid of beer cans. Seems when he was a puppy a full one rolled off the table inside and knocked him in the head. So what we'd do is line up a row of empties along the dock about a foot apart and he couldn't get past...it was freaking hilarious....he'd come tearing down the dock, turn the corner and skid to a stop in front of the line of beer cans.....barking like a mad man.

This is one of the few channels here that I can watch all day long without any problem. Vital history comes to us in many forms. Understanding how wars are fought gives people a priceless insight into a moment in history, and into the minds of the people called upon to do the fighting. It's been over 75 years and the people who fought the most important war of all time are passing way. But films like this preserve who they were, what they knew, and how they fought. To me and to others, these insights are truly priceless as we continue to make events matter to those who can't understand a vital need to know and understand history as they plan the future for themselves and other people. December 7th is a day like no other in American history. For America, it put us on the right side of a war against unspeakable evil. What was won along with "World War II" was the basis of the world we know today, even 75 and more years later. Find a Veteran today, and thank them for what they do for all of us, while remembering the history of all Veterans, who helped make the world today a better place thru the sacrifices of both yesterday and today.
