@handsome nazi Glad they lost. The Wehrmacht attacked countries in an aggressive war. Terrorism is when an army attacks civilians. Hitler made mistake after mistake. 1. He let the troops at Dunkirk go, giving Churchill an army. 2. He started attacking the UK, started bombing them, then stopped. 3. He attacked British lines in Africa, with too few troops, tanks. 4. He invaded the USSR. Strategic blunder. Two front war. 5. Attacking civilians made it impossible to find allies. 6. Hitler suddenly declared war on the US when he did not have to. 7. He split his army, half going to Stalingrad and half going to the Caucasus Region

My friend's elderly mother was a German nazi lady. She was in a nazi youth organisation, then joined the army as a nurse, serving throughout the war. Thereafter, she came to England to find a husband and married well having 5 children. I enjoyed long conversations with her over a decade or so, before her death in 2017. A good and principled lady who loved her family. I respected her.

I was there a few years ago. There is not a single pine tree near the Vinnitca. The Werwolf area is an exception. The headquarters itself is completely destroyed, but the information boards about the HQ and the occupation of Ukraine and the museum are interesting. Best regards to the author of this extremely interesting channel from Poland.

Despite of the nazi plea to the rest of western Europe to join them in illuminating murderous Soviet Stalin's regime, it's worth remembering that this nazi ruthless and criminal regime who's head ordered all Russian POWs to be shot immediately after the completion of this project and buried into the common pit. That says a lot. Peace and Love

It surprised me that they would bother wasting explosives to destroy this complex, unless Hitler didn't want to lose face by having Soviet troops posing for photographs in his forward headquarters. The concrete structures would have no real strategic purpose after Hitler had abandoned it. I would like to visit the site myself to take some photographs and pause in memory of those who had died there. The more I read about Hitler, the more I think what a strange, complex man he was. So many facets to his character.

Not sure why you feel Hitler had a penchant for "gloomy pine forests". I visited the original Wolf's Lair in Ketrzyn when I was a kid. There was nothing gloomy about the area. Pine forests are beautiful in the summer. On the other hand, in the six months of late October to mid-April all of that area is miserable and dark regardless of whether it is forested or not. It's just the nature of northern climate.

I absolutely love your content, and I’d like to make a suggestion: A video or short series on the American submarine USS Barb (SS-220). In short, this submarine ravaged Japanese shipping, was the first to launch rockets from the Japanese shore at military and industrial installations on the mainland, and sent in a strike team of saboteurs to set a very dangerous bomb, blow a train rail, and derail a train carrying military personnel. Furthermore, their skipper, Eugene Fluckey, was awarded the medal of honor (among other awards) and went on to be promoted to Rear Admiral following the war and led the U.S. Navy submarine ballistic missile testing program. It is truly an amazing story of bravery, with some of the crew’s achievements being literally the stuff of legend, and I think it’d make a great video if you’re interested :)

You would be right. The trees’ canopy adds a quietude + sense of shelter from the surrounding world. Shade and bit of cooling in heat. Bugs not really so bad if the terrain isn’t wet/swampy… But the other aspect is also true. Lost sense of direction. Gloom, strange noise of unknown wildlife. When weather is bad and blasting thru, a false sense of security that might crash down on top of you. The context kinda makes the atmospherics.

11:00 did he call him a “poisonous little dwarf” or a “Giftzwerg”, “poison dwarf”, which can, at least according to Cornelius Ryan, refer to a “tough bastard”, viz. the sort of person it’s handy to have in your corner (the sense it was used of Heinrici)? Minor nuance.

My goodness, the light brigade's ride through the history of the German military resistance. Very good work. What always upsets me is how bumbling and self-absorbed this resistance was. This is in complete contrast to the extent to which this resistance has been hailed. My silent and little honored hero is Johann Georg Elser.
@redrobur68
@redrobur68 4 жыл бұрын
@Pedro Kantor Wise words. But from my point of view, this is about more than a myth. In fact, the German resistance had many variants. From my point of view, the military resistance was not a resistance at all, but an attempted coup by the people who had previously helped make Hitler great. But the young Federal Republic of Germany needed this fairy tale of the military resistance to show that there was also a clean German military, because after all, the generals of the Wehrmacht were also the first leaders of the Bundeswehr. The fact that there was also a communist, a social democratic or a Christian resistance wasn't particularly helpful. Nor did the desperate acts of individual ordinary citizens receive adequate attention.
