The funny thing about this scene...Those flamethrowers didn't carry as much fuel is that. They were meant to be used in short bursts precisely because they had a limited fuel capacity. In reality, if Warren had spent the entire run up to the gun position hosing down the whole forest and everything in sight like he does here, by the time he actually came close to his intended target the goddamn thing would have been empty.

There’s a lot of badass characters in these war movies like Animal Mother from FMJ, RSM Sandy Young from Wild Geese,Bunny,Elias and Barnes from Platoon but if I could pick somebody for a fire team partner, it would be Sgt Talbot. That guy’s a fearless little pitbull. It was sad to see him did but that’s badass they got him and the medic to sneak away with them for fire support. Badass that Talbot had the PIG at the final assault.

Give Warren an unlimited supply of flame throwers and caffeine and he could have burned down the whole damn forest. The raging inferno along with Warren's legendary war cry would have caused the entire German army west of the Rhine to surrender en mass. The down side would have been the inevitable high casualty rate to friendly "fire" and the squirrel and bunny population would have been decimated.

The Kall river is in reality an insignificant mountain stream, in this film it is apparently a mighty obstacle .
@geodes47623 жыл бұрын
The significance is that it lies on the bottom of the trail at the end of the trail that leads down from Vossenach. Once the Kall is crossed the trail winds up to Kommerscheidt and then leads into Schmidt. Tanks needed to have a way to cross the stream. Today there is a stone arched bridge there. During the battle I believe the original bridge had been destroyed and engineers had built a Bailey bridge for troops and armor to cross. Have been down this trail many times. Even though the Kall is more like a creek here, it would have been a major bottleneck for tanks without an intact bridge!
@kevinlehnert93873 жыл бұрын
No, the lieutenant was hiding in it, crossed the whole river and the water barely reached his waist. The movie clearly depicts the river as insignificant and not a mighty obstacle. The whole point of the movie was to show that everyone pretty much died taking a fortified position that had no strategic value, it could have easily been bypassed but the officers wanted to do a "good job" and impress their boss and happily sent their men to their deaths to achieve mission accomplishment. And they weren't even able to take it in the end, it was just a pointless meat grinder.
@geodes47623 жыл бұрын
@@kevinlehnert9387 agree with your points about this being a pointless battle as a whole. At the company level, the officers, non commissioned officers and enlisted were simply following the orders of battalion, regimental, divisional and Corps level leaders who were largely detached from what was going on on the ground. In order to get even a half way appreciation of what company grade soldiers were up against, you have to actually “walk” that ground between Vossenach and Schmidt and then factor in the weather and how long the Germans had to prepare a defense there. What looks like relatively short distances on a map and even from standing in Vossenach and looking across to the area of Kommerscheidt is terribly deceiving. The selection of the Kall Trail as a main supply route was probably done with a map recon at higher levels and handed to the regiment charged with making the attack. A first hand recon would have quickly established that it was entirely inadequate to support tracked vehicles and provide enough supply throughput to support a regimental sized attack. As I have said, I have walked this trail several times. Not carrying equipment, not facing enemy resistance and not starting out cold, wet, hungry and scared shitless, I was totally spent by the time I walked from Vossenach to Kommerscheidt! The so called river at this point is not worthy of the name “river”. It is a wide brook but again would have been a “bottleneck” for any tracked vehicles that may have made it down into the gorge from Vossenach to start a winding trek up the other side, almost as steep, towards Kommerscheidt.

@@nastynate4916 I was not talking about this video clip: I was asking if you knew why the Allies didn't have an equivalent to the German 88mm flak gun. The 88mm was invented and used initially, solely as an anti-aircraft weapon (very high muzzle velocity - 2,690 feet per second - allowing it to fire vertically and destroy aircraft up to 26,000 feet. When used against ground targets, it had an effective range of around 9 miles. The high muzzle velocity meant it could fire directly at a moving target, rather than aim at where the target - say a tank - would be when the shell arrived. Surely the Allies had, or could have developed, guns that could have fulfilled a similar role against ground targets...
@nastynate49163 жыл бұрын
Baskerville22 you’re barking up the wrong tree, my guy. Anti-air wasn’t that big of an issue towards the end of the war seeing how the Luftwaffe was reserved for more defensive roles against raids. And armor was mostly handled with howitzers and tank-buster fighter bombers. Any anti air the allies needed was effective enough when the situation saw itself. My guess would be impracticality in that there would be no point in wasting millions in development of a weapon when there wasn’t exactly a demand.
