@ Daniel Moncaster Several of the Founding Fathers read every book that was published every year, along with the classics. Today it would be impossible to read every book published on any one subject in a year. K-12 basically teaches how to learn and the basics. When you get into college studies become more focused on a subject or discipline. Then there is historigraphy. Teaching is a art, and teaching the love of learning is one of the greatest gifts

@@lemonaid8678 I'm not much of a new movie fan, but I do enjoy many old movies; I have seen the "Bridge at Remagan" several times. Dad also had an actual film of the bridge taken before and after it collapsed into the river. He had always thought he arrived 2 or 3 weeks after it fell; from the the film he discovered he was there 3 days afterward. As a medic doing runs across the river returning injured Germans, and trading for injured Americans, he could have been on that bridge, except his orders were misplaced, slowing him down for 3 days.

@Danka now that sounds interesting. I'll make it a point to watch for it. I believe I've seen the title but was too short on time at that point. My Dad shared a lot of stories from his time, so I'm sure there's controversy all over the place. Dad caused some controversy himself when STDs got out of hand and he ordered all women off the streets from 6pm to 6am. It didn't make him popular, but it saved the antibiotics for the wounded.

There was a tug company on the Thames that had a code word given to them, and when they heard the code word they used their tugs to go and collect a number of small boats and tow them down to the coast. The Sheen was one of the tugs that they used and she is still around on the Medway. Engine still runs but she needs some serious work on her hull. We are hoping to restore her. We might be crazy but can't stand the thought of her going to scrap, there's too much history in her.

Churchill asked Ismay that a plan be made at once while the battle in Johore was going forward. He outlined what the plan should comprise. Among the ten elements of the plan, Churchill included: “(i) Not only must the defence of Singapore Island be maintained by every means, but the whole island must be fought for until every single unit and every single strong point has been separately destroyed. (j) Finally, the city of Singapore must be converted into a citadel and defended to the death. No surrender can be contemplated, and the Commander, Staffs and principal officers are expected to perish at their posts.

What a marvelous video, hearing from those old heroes their first-hand accounts of Dunkirk, before, during, and after. If I could make one suggestion for future videos, please make the background music quieter. Sometimes it was difficult to hear what these men were saying, and wasn't their testimony the real point of this? Also, I am quite certain that Dwight D. Eisenhower was not involved in the planning of Dynamo, and yet, there he is in the film during the discussion of the planning of the operation. Overlord was his time.

@@CB-fz3li True but don't forget that the decision to send the best British and French armies to Belgium after the Germans invaded the Netherlands and Belgium was taken not ONLY by the French but ALSO by the British. That's how they got surrounded and cut off the other units. The best elements of the French army, which had been sent to Belgium, were stationed by the Ardennes in March 1940, exactly where the Germans invaded through the Ardennes in May 1940. The Battle could have had another turn if this regiment had stayed there. They were replaced by poorly trained and equipped conscripts. Fun fact : the French had spotted a column of tanks moving in on the Ardennes but didn't take it seriously as they thought it was impossible to invade through the Ardennes. Even stranger : "On May 7, an RAF reconnaissance Spitfire spotted a vast column of 400 Panzer tanks moving in on the Ardennes near Luxembourg. The clouds of dust made by the vehicles could be seen for miles around. The RAF pilot risked his life to overfly the column several times to be sure of his report and photos, knowing his information to be of vital importance. On May 8, the War Office in London issued an intelligence assessment that declared there was "no sign of an imminent invasion" ..... yet with the information and records on hand, it is inconceivable how they came to this conclusion". - Martin Allen.

My personal opinion about Dunkirk : At the end it was a wise decision taken by the British to retreat back to England. This way they didn't loose their professional army forces and could prepare for what was coming later. But also it wouldn't be fair to forget the last defence of Dunkirk being taken by the French. They fought until they fulfilled their mission and until they were running out of ammunition. It's not what cowards do.

Dunkirk wasn't a miracle. It was the french soldiers who stood their ground, outnumbered, who make this retreat possible. I have the deepest respect for English soldiers and people who resist to Germany during this period, but I'm so tired to see Dunkirk documentary talking only about the brits....time to bring back the glory on the real Dunkirk savior: the French soldiers.

I grew up in the 70's and we knew about most of the war because our grandads, some of our teachers etc were veterans but I don't think many of us knew much about the Great War though. Same with the WW2 generation in that they probably didn't know a lot about the battles of the Crimean War. So it's not surprising youngsters don't know a lot now. One thing that is ironic though is that back in the 60's and 70's when kids did ask a lot of questions the veterans never wanted to talk about it and the ones that did were often bullshitters or were not at the sharp end of it.

People that survived these world wars had PTSD as well! How do you know that it wasn’t there? They didn’t have the label PTSD yet but that doesn’t mean it’s not there. There are quite a few people that killed themselves because they couldn’t deal with all the psychological issues they had. And that’s not weak. It has nothing to do with weakness. The things that some people go through are horrible. If you think that those men and women are weak because they have difficulties dealing with that, then you are the one with a problem. Besides that you are basically saying women are weak. “Girls in men’s bodies” seriously?! Sounds like you have an issue with showing feelings. Calling others weak that is what I call a real weakness.

@@lolwut9226 I’m not saying that it is exclusive to war veterans. Jeez, okay i read too quickly over Morbius first sentence. However it does not change the fact that many people don’t take these things seriously and and say stuff like “be a man” or something. Anyone that has had a traumatic experience in life can get ptsd. Since this video is about war I was responding @ war cases. I know people who went to a war zone and came back traumatised, and yet still there are people telling those men (and women) to be a man and get over it. Unbelievable!
