Garnish/Germany

Wertheim is a nice town and the castle is awesome. My ancestors left Wertheim for Pennsylvania in 1755.

Dunkirk is another beach

You have no idea everyone lost including you

Looks like a ghost town. Where are the people?

Sorry to correct you; it's been made by Americans, and if you look at the series, it's called "Normandy." Well, Normandy consisted of Four Allies, but the series only shows Omaha, Utah, St Mere Eglise, Ponte du Hoc, La Fiere. Longues, Colleville and all-American cemeteries. When you call up Normandy or D-Day on your browser, you will be fortunate to find a single upload that isn't all-American. Occasionaly a very brief mention is made of British, Canadian or French forces, but every episode is chock full of "Our brave American Soldiers," American Zones, American Paratroopers, American Cemeteries, American museums, and American flags flying in zones where no Amertican ever set foot. Where is the honour paid to the others? You can't get away from the plethora of American vainglory. I watched one episode of A "Normandy" Tour - covering Pegasus Bridge. The first scene was an American flag in pride of place of all others; the second scene was an American rifle marking a fallen American soldierm topped with an American helmet. The third scene was a group of American troops digiing a grave for a fallen comrade. we then had a ten-minute brief on what happened at Pegasus before we were shown part of the museum - concentrating mainly on American American artefacts and mannekins. The next fifteen minutes was all about the Americans talking about the removal of a section of the bridge to take back tro the US. I actually challenged the producer of the series, and brought several of these scenes to his attention. Within a week he had cut oout some of them, but still left in more than he'd taken out. So I don't make any apology, nor do I accept every effort you've made to undermine my claims. I've been a military historian for over fifty years, so I'm no armchair general or amateur battlefield guide. I know the American history of warfare, I know their successes and failures. and one thing comes to the top every time - their love of self glory and their didtate of everything British. Now I'm done with you!

I guess this just shows how much the WHOLE WORLD 'didn't cotton to' Germany saying, "We're the superior race, and we're gonna be in charge of EVERYTHING." Yet the world still has people today who want to be king of the world or at least king of a mountain. You didn't learn a damn thing, did you?

В такой красоте наставили оружия, пушек, солдатов! Там ангелов надо было везде поставить!

May we never forget why they bled and died on these far away Lands. It was to liberate the Captives from the brutal oppression and tyranny of the Axis Powers; here it was against Nazi Germany. America and the Allies fought for all freedom loving People.

👌👌👌

I bet those lights blinded someone… 💀🪦

First 👍

Hope you enjoy our latest trip to Rothenburg ob der Tauber.

Bel video like buona serata

When the men were on the beaches seeing their fellow comrades dropping like flies.. they probably thought they had no chance of winning. Shame the dead heroes didn't get to see the outcome. RIP.

What a beautifully presented tour. Thank you.

very detailed video.. thank you.. we will try to take the same tour w our family.

Thanks for the nice video!! I am wondering how much time was allocated to the airborne museum? Was it enough to see all things?

Hi. How long to see all this? 1 day...2 days? Thanks

Beautiful video.

👍🏻

This landing and the 3 months of bloody fighting that followed were very costly in terms of human lives. On both sides, and also on the side of French civilians. This operation is often depicted in a heroic mode by Hollywood, notably by Spielberg, but many forget that for the civilian population of Normandy, it was hell. There had been more French civilians killed than US troops killed in action. The maximum estimate of civilian losses is around 50,000, in dozens of towns razed or heavily damaged by the fighting, and especially by the terrible aerial bombardments, like in Caen or Le Havre. More generally, France, after Germany, was the most heavily bombed country in Western Europe, with 518,000 tons of bombs dropped in 5 years, and almost 70000 civilians killed. Not just in Normandy, but all over France. Reconstruction took about 20 years in many places.

F France!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Indruk wekkend en dankbaar

We can't imagine the horrible site of that day of invasion in these beautiful green fields where a lot of bunkers, aa guns, dead bodies, soldiers fighting,artillery was all around there. May the great souls of comrades rest in peace.

Thank you very much, for this Video. Manfred Freiherr Von Richtofen was one of the greatest fighting aviators, ever !! Roland Singh, Canada 🇨🇦

Cut

good night, like-you shared fantasticc - would you like more views?,:)

What a nice castle, thanks for showing

We visited Heidelberg in late summer and would love to go back 😊

Normandyにおいて連合軍の優勢が決まった！当時のドキュメンタリー映像でしか見たことがありませんでしたが今は、このような所なんですね。初めて知りました。

As french born near these beachs, it's a nice depict... good job.

No, not a different D Day no D Day without American troops, logistics and industrial power! To think otherwise shows a lack of historical knowledge!

And some leaders never learn💙🧡

It's nuts knowing some of this building survived the battle

@3:43 I see US and British flags but no Canadian flag. Why? Did see one @7:40.The beaches and fields looks so peaceful now. Very sad what the soldiers had to face including for months after landing. We owe our freedom to all of them, Americans, Brits, Canadians, Anzacs, Free French, Poles, South Africans, Indians, Russians, the underground (including women spies) and everyone who fought with the Allies.

Without America there would have been no D Day!!

We should never forget all of the young men who so bravely came ashore that day. It makes no difference if they were Americans, Canadians, French, or British or any other country, they fought for one thing, to end fascism and the reign of terror by the Nazis. May we all remember that thanks to their sacrifice, we are here today living free.

I would love to take this vacation but no time soon for cost but maybe when I retire and my wife's health is in good condition ya but for now thanks for the videos

Que nunca mais vivamos os horrores de uma guerra mundial.
