The Horrific Reality Of The Battle Of Stalingrad | Battles Won & Lost | War Stories

The battle of Stalingrad must be the most brutal battle in human military history. I can’t think of a battle that was more bloody and gruesome. No German wanted too be sent too Stalingrad or the Eastern front for that matter. It’s like Schindlers list when he tells the two concentration camp guards not listening too him “ congratulations men you’ll both be in Russia by the end of the month” both soldiers instantly woke up and did exactly as he told them. That’s how brutal Stalingrad was. If I was a German soldier I would of done anything to stay away from the Eastern Front, especially Stalingrad. To be sent too serve in Western Europe must of been a gift.

The Malay Regiment was severely outnumbered and undersupplied, but Adnan was able to motivate his troops to put up fierce resistance, even resorting to hand-to-hand combat when their ammunition ran out. At the end of the battle, Adnan and the other surviving troops refused to surrender. (American writer rewrites Lieutenant Adnan's battle of Bukit Chandu as badass story)

[@marcobassini3576]

The Germans did not retreat from Montecassino because they were forced by the attackers. They retreated because they were ordered to retreat by the High command. They were in danger to be encircled due to the frontline collapse elsewhere (many km away from Montecassino). So although they were in full control of the mountain, they voluntarily abandoned it for a planned retreat of the whole Army defensive line north of Rome. The mountain was held by the elite parachute division nicknamed "green devils".

The Germans were defeated at Stalingrad because the British had cracked the Enigma. The Germans sent all sensitive communications through Enigma. in the summer of 1941. Once Enigma was cracked, it was like having a god's eye view of the battlefield. It is no surprise that the Germans started losing every major battle after shortly after summer of 1941. The allies knew when and where to strike or defend at the most crucial point in every battle. The allies knew where every German unit was, what their strength was, and what their intentions were. Yes, the allies may have still won the war without cracking Enigma, but it would have been a far longer and bloodier war.

Little did the U boat captains and German Naval commanders know we had their code cracked. They might as well stood and shouted out with a megaphone where they was going too be.

It appears documented in this movie that the germans did not use the monastery in reverence for the historic buildingcomplex of Monte Cassino. So it is an intelligence failure and then a bombing scandal and a war crime, but an allied one. It appears to have been called for by a british commanding officer and to me, it is a very good question why he was authorized to ask for it and who actually approved it.

Soviet storm is an amazing series. One thing I’ve found in my research is that the aftermath of WW2 really dictated the kind of information we have today. Nazis documented EVERYTHING and when they were conquered all that documentation became known as it fell into the hands of the conquerors. The Soviet’s were never conquered, and as the iron curtain went up and US / Soviet relations deteriorated information became obscured, and repressed. What was released was biased and propagated. Even published journals had to go through the Soviet censors.

If one goes today to Montecassino, the abbey can be seen for kilometres around. This would have also been seen by Allied troops attacking who would have been asking why this building was still standing. Therefore I believe that the decision to destroy it was made in order to placate the feelings of the troops on the ground. The abby itself is dominated by a hill which was the brunt of most of the attacks in 1944. The Moroccans broke through some 25km to the west and once that had happened, the German paratroopers pulled out in order not to be outflanked and the Poles were able to capture Montecassino unopposed.

rather sketchy. The loss of aircrew was more important than the loss of aircraft. It took much longer to produce a capable and skilled pilot than an airplane. Also, as the battle took place over British territory, Downed allied pilots who survived unscathed could be back in the skies the same day, whereas German pilots who survived shooting down invariably became POW's and were lost to Germany for the war..

10 minutes, starting at 28:45 out of a 50 minute video was actually about Monte Cassino. The battle was useless, as was, in my opinion the entire Italian campaign, same with Sicily. All part of Churchill's Soft Underbelly of Europe plan. No army including in WW2 has ever invaded northern Europe(Germany) through Sicily and Italy. At the end of WW2 the allies were still fighting in the mountains of Italy, the allies never got to Austria, much less Germany by this route, the Alps were to defensible. There were no strategic victories in Sicily or Italy as viewed as a whole in the effort to defeat Germany other than casualties and German costs and efforts to supply outlaying areas. Churchill as well as most of the U K and France were so afraid of Germany and a repeat of Verdun, and the Somme of WW1 that they would not confront the German army directly, they put that onus on Russia. Unfortunately, this was the only way to defeat Germany. It is amazing in retrospect, The UK and France were intimidated by the country that lost WW1. They were timid in their victory while Germany was emboldened by their defeat. The mighty French Army and Navy were defeated in 6 weeks, with hardly any fighting, they simply gave up. France had more tanks, and better tanks than Germany at that time, the Char B was a better tank than the German Mark1 and Mark 2 in use at the time. France had a larger Army(119 divisions) than Germany(100 divisions), With Men and material from the UK, the allies of the time outnumbered and were better equipped than the Germans. The difference was the willingness to fight. The UK and France declared war on Germany in Sept. 1939, then did nothing for over a year, it is now called the "Phony War". The battles around the edges of German held territories was a waste other than publicity. The defeat of the Germans in Africa, Sicily and most of Italy had little bearing of the defeat of Germany as a country. From the very start, Germany would have to be defeated in Germany.

The truth this didn't tell was the only people in Monte cassino were the monks and the men, women and children of town of Monte Casino. The allies never took the time to find out the truth. It was probably one of the biggest cases of bombing the people who were counting on being saved by the allies being killed by them including children. Was it a failure of intelligence. Or the fog of war. Or just maybe a failure of the high command to find out the facts of the situation. But in any case it gave the Germans a great defensive situation to inflict a high number of casualties on the attacking force. None the less it was a great mistake of the war.

Actually they couldn't. The monastery dominated any access into the Liri valley, and the roads leading north to Rome. When you look at the maps from that timeperiode, you'll see that there is only two roads, route 6 and 7, between the coast and the Abruzzi mountain range. The destruction of the abbey was indeed a mistake, no doubt about it. Before the bombing, although the Germans didn't occupy the abbey itself, they had several OP's stationed on the hill itself, which wrought havoc on the Allies. Every attempt to cross the Garigliano river were meet with accurate and deadly shell fire. This lead the Allies to think, wrongly, that the Germans had already established a stronghold on the hill.
