How come the vast majority of the French population rarely helped the freedom fighters or antagonized the occupiers? Anybody wonders how the majority of the population, politicians, the church and other official establishment openly collaborated with the Germans? Can anybody explain to me how come the French where given a buffer state with practically total power of self government as Vichy France?......Does anybody wonder why the RN destroyed the French Navy in Oran before they capitulated and readily surrendered their ships to Nazi Germany?

[@eliottsantos2654]

@@CoolGobyFish In comparison to Britain's African troops, who where few in numbers, the French had a huge cadre of African troops, especially North African and Senegalese Regiments, plus the Legion, with many of them already deployed in Europe. British West Indians and Africans did volunteer to fight in Europe although in restricted numbers. The main resource of British Colonial troops obviously came from the Indian subcontinent, who like in WWI, fought magnificently in all the theatres of War. The pity is that French Colonial troops proved the mettle later on in the war...North African mountain troops with their Polish counterparts where crucial in the flanking movement at Monte Cassino which ended that bloody battle.

I have to agree you, Sir Mark Felton, are the history teacher I should have had back in high school, I would have probably followed all the way to university and eventually a doctorate like you. What I had instead was a teacher telling to me to shut up because that's not what's written in his book and that if he doesn't lecture the book he gets fired. (I believe I was debating the facts behind 1930's germany and bringing up important side-events to the subjects, he called me after class and told me I was right and it was amazing to see kids enjoy history so much but that this wasn't the place). Needless to say if school is not the place to learn and share, I was pretty much done with school.

[@annebradley6086]

@PatTheRiot THE ASSAD FAMILY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH LETTING THIS NAZI WAR LORD MURDERER IN SYRIA! The information in this video is DECEPTIVE, seemingly to humor the poor leadership which exists in USA. In my opinion, this video should be taken down. It only feeds the propaganda of horrible Foreign Policy by USA Gov! Syrian Republic (1945-1958) Quwatli was ousted from power on 29 March 1949 by Husni al-Za'im, his Chief of Staff.

I know this is audio only, but you could show a few extra photos. Grab some of your faves related to the topic and throw them on the editing time line! Love everything about your show, topics, narration, editing and sheer amount of research you do. True artist.

I remember hearing recently that a stockpile of STG44's were found in Syria in very good condition. I wonder if they were part of a bribe

[@tomthebomb9474]

If it is the same cache I heard about they were not, the French army used stg 44s after the war and either forgot about the cache when Syria was decolonized or the weapons were sold to the new government when the French sold some of their other confiscated German equipment.

[@vulpesinculta3238]

More likely to have gotten there through trade with the Soviet Union or East Germany.

[@hakimcameldriver]

The stg44s in Syria were given by East Germany as foreign aid..

Thank you very much for uploading! 👏🏻

Wow. Thank you. Lack of interest by Cologne prosecutors in 1987 - sad but not super surprising. There were still loads of officials with dirty pasts around then. All the old guys you met around that time said they fought on the Eastern Front, never anywhere else. We always thought that was odd.

Hi Mark, liking the new longer episodes. Thank you.

The title music is wonderful. Creates the mood. Clear voice and simple language adds to the classism

3:20 "Bruner didn't look particularly Aryan." You mean he wasn't tall like Goebbels, slim like Goering, and blond like Hitler?

@beckys2222 Nah Hitler had famously blue eyes. But the OP's comment still stands

[@pavolkrajcovic745]

He was born in Rohrbrunn (Nádkút). This village was originally (till 1920) part of Hungary. Yes, he was austrian origin, but maybe some part of his ancestors were Hungarians, etc. Somebody should definitely make a deep research about this major nazi figure and his ancestry.

And there are still so many people of this character out there. When The Third Reich was defeated militarily this ideology lived on.

Hey doctor How about an episode about Heinrich “gestapo” muller? Apparently he disappeared at the end of the war as well. Thanks, love your work
