I was a Marine in Vietnam for 20 months--(26th BLT & 1st Marine Div) my opinion, the soldiers, marines, seabees, air wing, navy, 'All' branches of the fighting men & support personnel as well as all of the Allies during WWII were "The Greatest Generation". Salute to "All" military persons past & present & those who have & do support them.

@@Mass_hole508No, nothing to laugh about. I was taking stock of information previously unknown to me (US soldiers caught fighting in the winter of 1944 without coldweather gear) and comparing the US Army's lack of preparation for winter warfare with the wehrmacht's identical situation in Russia in 1941. I find it interesting that the US Army would fail to supply winter clothing for it's soldiers in 1944 when they had 2 years time to anticipate the situation and no excuse for failing to prepare for winter warfare. The Germans, on the other hand, were in a much different situation. They could not begin large-scale prepararion and production of cold weather uniforms without alerting Stalin to their impending pre-emptive invasion of the USSR. As the story goes, in 1941 Stalin refused to listen to his many spies that repeatedly warned him of an imminent German invasion. Instead he watched the market price of mutton and wool knowing prices would be drastically affected if the German Army began to equip its soldiers for the extreme cold of Russia's weather. Because Germany did not prepare and market prices were unaffected Stalin left his forces as vulnerable as possible allowing Germany to achieve the smashing success they did during the initial stages of operstion Barabarossa. Its interesting, thats all.

The description of Peleliu making it sound like some sort of cake walk, plus that nonsense about why it was invaded in the first place (something about a great landing field) puts this entire series in question, because it's obvious they weren't about to let truth get in the way of their sunny optimism.

Matthew Erwin You have to consider who produced these films. They were being produced by the War Dept. Their purpose was to keep the public enthusiastic about the war. They weren’t trying to show the unvarnished reality. The last time the Marines tried that,after Tarawa, recruitment nationwide fell off by about half. Governments produces films to produce government aims. Then and now.
@mwbright5 жыл бұрын
@Matthew Erwin I know why we did it. But I don't think it's necessary, or was necessary back then, to cover up the nonsense thinking that sent all those young guys to Peleliu to get slaughtered like they did. The powers that be realized it was a bullshit schlep going to Peleliu, and tried to cancel it, but the fleet was on its way so they couldn't, or so they said. And we won the fight over there, but it didn't confer a single benefit. The Marines at Peleliu might as well have been breaking rocks like the convicts of the day. Awful business. And so many families crushed by the loss of their loved ones. I guess things like Peleliu make me cranky. That's all.

No, that is probably a US Model 1919 air cooled machine gun on our normal 30-06 caliber. Americans would never use a German gun as the sound would let other Americans think he was a German, and they would shoot at hims. Нет, это, вероятно, американский пулемет модели 1919 с воздушным охлаждением на нашем обычном калибре 30-06. Американцы никогда не использовали бы немецкое оружие, поскольку звук позволил бы другим американцам думать, что он был немцем, и они будут стрелять в него.

14:59 Invasion of Palau Islands. The video is a totally superficial presentation for Home Front consumption. Source: History dot Com. " The Battle of Peleliu resulted in the highest casualty rate of any amphibious assault in American military history: Of the approximately 28,000 Marines and infantry troops involved, a full 40 percent of the Marines and soldiers that fought for the island died or were wounded, for a total of some 9,800 men (1,800 killed in action and 8,000 wounded). The high cost of the battle was later attributed to several factors, including typical Allied overconfidence in the efficacy of the pre-landing naval bombardment, a poor understanding of Peleliu’s unique terrain, and overconfidence on the part of Marine commanders, who refused to admit their need for support earlier on at Bloody Nose Ridge." Bypassing, Isolating and starving the island would take time and imagination. Bad generals should be shot.
