[@ryleyw3684]

I don't care what people are saying about the video, nit picking it. it was good, and it made me a little teary eyed, you get to thinking that all the Germans were bad people, most where just doing what they where told, same as the allies. war is never good, like the narrator said "they are fighting and not really knowing why". Each side where just the same as the other, men just doing their job. it's sad really, when the person you shoot at is a father, a brother, a son, a person who could be a nice person. this video told a good message. it's sad how men (and women) have to fight out 2 people's problems just because they don't agree with things or something. was is never ending, it was a thing since the start, when will it ever end.

[@talhaafzalkohistani8981]

wow..thats great ..someone recognized german soldiers as humans finally...

[@EnzoLay_TheUmbraPonyGuardian]

This was a German Sniper and not a Nazi. Nazis are heartless killers, a German has a heart and thinks before shooting someone

[@brianmccarthy5657]

Talha Afzal Kohistani ther is an older full length feature film called "The Eagle Has Landed" which shows German soldiers as humans and I think it's a great film.

[@thedonofbgfmakoflatty172]

Awesome video... I can't help to think this could've happen during that particular battle.. I believe a similar deal happened during WWI on Christmas. The generals were not happy and were concerned how they get the boys back into fighting each other. I'm not sure they actual sang silent night in English and German at the same time. However, it does add some level of humanity during a rough time for all involved. Awesome song tho..

[@kurtsherrick2066]

The Christmas Miracle. Both British and German troops had to be replaced because they wouldn't fight each other after spending Christmas Together in WWI. They weren't enemies actually in the first place. They were Christians Celebrating the Birth of their Saviour. The Germans started decorating then the British followed then in time exchanging gifts and fellowshiped together. During the American Civil War during the night at some battles the South and the North met in a neutral area and exchanged letters, Newspapers and coffee and Tobacco. Also at Fredericksburg, Cold Harbor and Kennasaw Mountain the Confederates helped bury the Union Dead. When they did that it seemed they were lost best friends. The Rich always cause the poor to fight their brothers.

[@davev3752]

It is a very good video, it also shows that not every german was bad.

[@algieturas612]

Nice work. Very nice work. The scenario isn't far-fetched, it's very believable.

[@williamcarey8994]

It's not an AK-47! It's an STG 44, the first assault rifle ever used in combat, invented by of course the germans.

[@vacadelapte2587]

The famous Ak47 was the weapon of choice of the Werhmacht :) But the video is very nice :D

[@rodwilkins1614]

Einsatzgruppen could not have functioned without the full support of the German military. 90% of German units took part in imprisonment, enslaving or destruction of unarmed civilians in other neighbouring countries or Russia during WW2. German civilian death’s were a direct consequence of the Wehrmacht’s actions in attempting to rule Europe. These are fact’s, not an opinion.

[@ehanoldaccount5893]

The sniper in the ending must've been Russian, he shot everyone and got away with it..

[@sweetchilli1261]

but why did he shot the american soldier when they were allies?

[@ehanoldaccount5893]

Sweet Chilli The Russians were allies with the Germans too at one point, the Russians only wanted to expand power. They kept US POWs captured form Germany after the war

[@ismopalviainen4790]

You haven't thought about that the sniper/soldier killed them both could've been german, because the shot german was a "traitor" to them?

[@Kenny-od2tg]

Did anyone else notice ak47? Great vid

[@jeskoabsolut7845]

Kenny yep I even paused the video to get a better look of it

[@nickx8411]

Lessons: War is when we must set aside our humanity in order to survive. After the war, our humanity can return. Bleeding hearts.... bleed out. I don't like it either, but that's how it is. Best thing to do... defy war. Remember that famous question.... "What if they gave a war, and nobody came?" THAT would be the best answer. Until then, as both men and both families learned in this movie, "mercy" gets you killed.

What the fuck is up with that Mauser? You just have to except that they are on a low budget.

[@bluesbubba7429]

They never used AK47s in WWII (as seen at the beginning of this movie). They were developed in 1947 by tank mechanic Mikhail Kalashnikov. And it does not really resemble a STG44 which was used by the Germans at the tail end of the war. Therefor I'll pass on this movie.

As my dad always said- some days you eat the bear. Some days the bear eats you. It's a hunt and be hunted world.

[@paulcruikshank7250]

btw, there wasn't any air support during the battle due to the weather, specifically used as an advantage by the Germans so the us couldn't bomb their advances, therefore they wouldn't have any of their own unlike in this video

[@bertrand83100]

La bataille des Ardennes est le nom donné à l'ensemble des opérations militaires qui se sont déroulées en Ardenne pendant l'hiver 1944-1945. La bataille commence le 16 décembre 1944 par une attaque surprise allemande, à laquelle on a donné le nom d'« Offensive von Rundstedt ». Le Generalfeldmarschall von Rundstedt y était opposé : il estimait que l'objectif était trop ambitieux. Les Allemands l'appellent Opération Wacht am Rhein, et les Anglo-Américains Battle of the Bulge (la « bataille du Saillant ») vu la forme de coin que la ligne de front avait prise lorsque la pénétration allemande fut arrêtée. La bataille des Ardennes se termine fin janvier 1945, après le refoulement des Allemands au-delà de leur ligne de départ. The Battle of the Bulge (16 December 1944 - 25 January 1945) was a major German offensive campaign launched through the densely forested Ardennes region of Wallonia in Belgium, France, and Luxembourg on the Western Front toward the end of World War II in Europe. The surprise attack caught the Allied forces completely off guard. United States forces bore the brunt of the attack and incurred their highest casualties for any operation during the war. The battle also severely depleted Germany's armored forces on the western front, and Germany was largely unable to replace them. German personnel, and later Luftwaffe aircraft (in the concluding stages of the engagement), also sustained heavy losses. Le 1er janvier, la Luftwaffe exécute une riposte bien conçue et exécutée par surprise; il s'agit de l'opération Bodenplatte. Volant en rase-mottes, l'aviation allemande attaque une trentaine de bases alliées. Selon certaines sources, 800 avions sont détruits ou endommagés ; 300 selon d'autres, mais pour ne pas inquiéter la population, les services d'information alliés ont minimisé les faits. La Luftwaffe perd toutefois dans ce raid 277 avions et beaucoup de ses derniers pilotes chevronnés. Elle n'est plus en mesure de combler ses pertes et de jouer un rôle dans la fin de la guerre. Les Alliés qui n'ont presque pas perdu de pilotes dans cette opération remplacent les avions perdus en deux semaines. Le même jour, profitant de l'affaiblissement du groupe d'armées Devers, les Allemands lancent une attaque de diversion en Alsace, sans aucune répercussion en Ardennes. En ce mois de janvier 1945, les conditions atmosphériques sont épouvantables. Dans les Ardennes, il y a beaucoup de neige et la température est tellement basse qu'il faut faire tourner régulièrement tous les moteurs pour que l'huile ne se fige pas. C'est dans ces conditions que démarre le 3 janvier la contre-attaque de Montgomery. En fait, il s'agit de l'attaque du VIIe corps US du général Collins qui a été relevé sur ses positions par le XXXe Corps britannique. Elle démarre de la région de Hotton en direction de Houffalize. Elle est appuyée sur sa droite, à partir du 6 janvier, par des unités britanniques (division galloise et la 6e division aéroportée). La jonction avec la contre-attaque de Patton qui a commencé 12 jours plus tôt est prévue dans la région d'Houffalize. Les opérations sont lentes car les journées sont courtes et les Allemands se sont bien retranchés derrière des canons antichars et de nombreux champs de mines. La jonction a lieu le 16 janvier. À la même date, le XXXe Corps britannique retourne vers le front de Hollande. Le 17 janvier, la 1re armée US est replacée sous le commandement de Bradley mais la 9e reste sous celui de Montgomery. Le Commandement suprême allemand (OKW) ordonne le repli car, après trois mois d'arrêt, les Soviétiques ont repris l'offensive. Constatant l'échec définitif de cette offensive, Hitler rentre en train à Berlin le 15 janvier10. Le 24 janvier, Saint-Vith est repris et le 30, les Allemands sont rejetés au-delà de leur ligne de départ. German counterattack[edit] Main articles: Operation Bodenplatte and Operation Nordwind Destroyed P-47s at Y-34 Metz-Frescaty airfield, destroyed during Operation Bodenplatte On 1 January, in an attempt to keep the offensive going, the Germans launched two new operations. At 09:15, the Luftwaffe launched Unternehmen Bodenplatte (Operation Baseplate, literally Operation Floor Panel), a major campaign against Allied airfields in the Low Countries, which are nowadays called the Benelux States. Hundreds of planes attacked Allied airfields, destroying or severely damaging some 465 aircraft. However, the Luftwaffe lost 277 planes, 62 to Allied fighters and 172 mostly because of an unexpectedly high number of Allied flak guns, set up to protect against German V-1 flying bomb/missile attacks and using proximity fused shells, but also by friendly fire from the German flak guns that were uninformed of the pending large-scale German air operation. The Germans suffered heavy losses at an airfield named Y-29, losing 24 of their own planes while downing only one American plane. While the Allies recovered from their losses in just days, the operation left the Luftwaffe weak and ineffective for the remainder of the war.[98] On the same day, German Army Group G (Heeresgruppe G) and Army Group Upper Rhine (Heeresgruppe Oberrhein) launched a major offensive against the thinly stretched, 110 kilometres (70 mi) line of the Seventh U.S. Army. This offensive, known as Unternehmen Nordwind (Operation North Wind), was the last major German offensive of the war on the Western Front. The weakened Seventh Army had, at Eisenhower's orders, sent troops, equipment, and supplies north to reinforce the American armies in the Ardennes, and the offensive left it in dire straits. By 15 January, Seventh Army's VI Corps was fighting on three sides in Alsace. With casualties mounting, and running short on replacements, tanks, ammunition, and supplies, Seventh Army was forced to withdraw to defensive positions on the south bank of the Moder River on 21 January. The German offensive drew to a close on 25 January. In the bitter, desperate fighting of Operation Nordwind, VI Corps, which had borne the brunt of the fighting, suffered a total of 14,716 casualties. The total for Seventh Army for January was 11,609.[20] Total casualties included at least 9,000 wounded.[99] First, Third and Seventh Armies suffered a total of 17,000 hospitalized from the cold.[20][h]

yes Paul...you wrong during the battle of the bulge, the luftwaffe was engaged its in the history friendly

[@paulcruikshank7250]

Pardon me. You are correct. I researched it and sounds logical enough. The use of air support is never highlighted in MOST accounts of the battle or is usually vastly over shadowed by the Germans use of tanks. My apologies. I did however thoroughly enjoy your video. I personally didn't have a problem with the uniforms nor the weapons. I thought it was a wonderful story

Is it important to watch WW1 first to understand the story? I can't find the first one on KZbin :-(

[@jessgatt5441]

I do not identify the rifle carried by the German as any Mauser I ever saw, it must have been chopped on here in America, or in France, but no German infantryman carried such a bastardised weapon, unless in extreme emergency, and as there were twenty million standard K-98's in service the odds that the Kraut would be carrying one like that are slim and none. An infantryman never fired at aircraft, that's a waste of ammo, a thing very highly prized by a grunt.

Yep not mistaking the 47 Kalashnikov, it was made in Russia yep, but it was not made during WW2, most def made long after war is over. It is still popular even today with both legitimate defence organisations and even the police over the world but also popular with many terrorists including the ISIS.

obviously the ak was manufactured in 1947 like her name say it ;) but here its the ww2 so i dont understand why they chose to use an ak
