A lot of these Italian officers were not trained to be officers a lot of godfathers in different territories of Italy wanted dear sons to be officers, even though they had no formal training they made them offers they couldn’t refuse😂😂😂😂😂

There is a pretty decent strip club on Lundy's Lane now.

Never heard of the battle until it was mentioned in a film, and I'm from Lowestoft too.

Grant started out as a Colonel in 1861. By Belmont, he was a Brigadier General in command about 3000 troops. He commanded 15,000 troops at Fort Henry, and about 30,000 troops at Fort Donaldson. Both 3 months later.

Are you wondering what went wrong with the Italians during World War II? The answer can be found in article 16 of the Paris dicktat of 10 February 1947 (which is still hypocritically defined as a peace treaty when it is not such at all). That treatise consists of 150 points and you can also find it online. But be careful! Article 17 should also be considered. Well, if you carefully read these articles 16 and 17 (which could also be articles 1 and 2 or 4 and 5 for example) and do a simple arithmetic operation (addition) it will make a certain sum, a certain number (33) which, in this case, takes on a very important and delicate meaning. The history of Italy's entry into the war needs to be completely rewritten. Above all, the very serious behavior of several high-ranking military leaders and certain industrial and financial circles who determined, in a very serious way, Italy's defeat. A defeat that was not only material but above all moral. And Mussolini, despite having been warned in advance of this disastrous situation, remained incredibly blocked. When he attempted to react, July 25, 1943, it was already gravely too late.

I've read a lot of WWII History. Mainly by Americans. Some few by German soldiers and just a few by Russian soldiers. I've never read anything by an Italian author; no history, no biographies, nor any personal experiences by the Italian rank and file. That's a great loss to all of us.

This was absolutely fascinsting. Thanks so much!

Perfect. Thank you.

Well done and thank you!

My goodness, excellent work reporting on this operation! I appreciate your addition of many relevant photographs.

Too bad people just can't get along.

ASKED MUSSOLINI..THE INCAPABLE STUPID JOKER.

My 2nd Great Grandfather was part of the Twenty-fifth Infantry (Heck's Regiment) and later in the war the 62nd Mounted Infantry. Thanks for the video.

This entire conflict seems to have been about who had the best ‘tash!

Very good program explaining their lack of capability.

Another Zinger?!🤔

Italy had ABSOLUTELY NO BUSINESS go to war in 1940. Their economy was just getting by and not capable of properly supporting any military campaigns, witness the 1930s African debacle!

What about the Greeks kicking the daylights out of Italian forces in Albania?? Not a mention in this docu!

Sometimes quantity has a quality all its own. Rather worrisome given the possibility of a third world war and so much industrial production moved to nations that might be neutral or hostile.

It’s so cool to me that two of the ships that fought in this battle still survives to this day. Hopefully will get to visit them one day.

You can camp on the beach in this bay it's the best

As a sidenote, both Haida and Blyskawica are museum ships today in their respective countries.

Poles getting revenge for 1939...

I think he likes this chocolate

Hmm num num num

As true now as it was back then

One is tempted to get on the soap box about the amused contempt with which the American government has treated the veterans of the recent unconstitutional forever wars. There are so many of them, lying on the sidewalks with their backs against the facades of buildings. - Have a look at the recent news about the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea, Massachusetts.

What a Asmr

Appreciated the video!

thats chill

weird thumb

It's Friday - should be a crunchie! 😂

This is the first video I have seen of yours. It is excellent. Liked and subbed. I’m from the border area and it’s very interesting to see border families acting on both sides and others taking no sides - stealing supplies. That did make me laugh. If I had lived in those times, I would have been on neither side. I would be with the parts of the families stealing the cattle and Surrey’s beer. 😂

A cancer in many Latin militaries is ( 1 ) poor training ( 2 ) promotion is not based on ability, but on social status and family standing .

What went wrong ? The gearboxes on the tanks. Whereas the English and the Americans had 4 gears forward and one backward, Italian tankers had 4 gears backward and only one forward.

Thank you for covering this. I missed the initial posting 😊 cheers

Thanks for covering this little known action😊

My ancestor was in A Company 4th Iowa

Good job

Great video! Really shows how disparities in command allow potential victories to slip away.

Thanks. This is one of the most under reported battles of significance and I really appreciate the work you have put into this. Very balanced and fair.

My ancestors fought and died in this battle, Then called Mure ( it changed to Muir ). I have been and paid my respects to all those who died here.

As far as i know, and I don't know much, Italy's involvement in the Spanish Civil War wasn't substantial. I think the army didn't go there, just a voluntary force made by "Black Shirts" fascists. Maybe some aerial support once. Feel free to correct me.

A True Englishman. Shame now such people do not exist these days, especially in the government.

Elliot was disgusting and unreliable ... he purposely held his ship back(even Barclay admitted this), and left the Lawrence take the brunt of Perry's paired ship AND Elliott's paired ship. When Elliot finally moved his ship up, Perry transferred to the Niagara, dressed down Elliot, then told Elliot to leave the Niagara and bring up the rest of the fleet, THEN Perry, crossed the "T", and won the day. Elliott was an arsehole ...

Great job!

Can you do th3 Battle or Queenston Heights?

Silly games

Anything about the HMS Celendine please?
