America before Pearl Harbor were supplying the allies with weapons and equipment

I wish that this war and its consequences would be given far more attention today. As a warning. But for some people it seems too long ago, and the generation that experienced it will soon be gone. Both my grandfathers were soldiers. One was a fighter pilot in the German Air Force and also flew against Great Britain. Later he was surprised in Vienna and was held prisoner by the Russians for 10 years, which he only survived by sheer luck. My other grandfather joined the Wehrmacht in 1937. He wanted to get his military service over with quickly, but the war started shortly before the end. Because he was there from the start, he was deployed in almost every European country. The worst were the partisan battles, which gave me bad dreams well into old age. When I had the war and the Holocaust at school in 8th, 9th, and 10th grades, I was the first person he could talk to about his experiences. Often in tears. How he lost his best friend, how he had to be left behind by his comrades in Poland because of frostbite, and how he was hidden from the Russians by a Polish farmer. Perhaps because he was from East Prussia and spoke Polish. A few days before the end of the war, he took an opportunity and fled from Berlin towards the west with a group of 13 or 14 year-old Hitler Youth (child soldiers). Where they were held captive by the Americans. But after they had taken everything away, my grandfather was supposed to look after the boys and was let go. Later he came to work as a helper on my grandmother's farm. In the 60s and 70s, Germany grappled very intensively with guilt and responsibility, and the topic is still important in schools today. That is the reason why there is no strong political or social patriotism in Germany today. In addition, the basic attitude is more pacifist, which explains the poor state of the Bundeswehr. But unfortunately there are still countries that romanticize the past or do not deal with it sufficiently and unfortunately force us to think about rearmament again. ruclips.net/video/DMNJk1LNV0w/видео.htmlsi=EEEpHKWbIVcQ00G2

When he said mostly men with doldiers he was referring to Female Soviet/Russian soldiers. I believe about 1 million females served in the Soviet Red Army, Navy and Air Force. Nurses would be counted under civilians as they technically weren't military they just helped the military. Okinawa is considered average length but considering it is an Island it could be considered a long battle. The unfortunate thing is most of the West has forgotten about the Russians/Soviets sacrifice to end WWII. You can also now see why the Russians still hate Germany. Infact the Germans first started testing the holocaust against the Russians/Ukrainians/Polish before using it widespread.

what was this channel originally called?

This is the most important episode of the series. The camp was called Kaufering IV, a sub camp of Dachau. Easy Company actually arrived the day after the liberation. The actors did not see the camp until the episode was filmed, their reactios are real. Cancer patients were cast as some of the prisoners and rotten food had been thrown around to create the smell.

Dont call germans - humans

The fact that even Speirs is shaken by what he sees just reinforces that even the hardest soldier is still human. I watched a panel discussion with Babe Heffron, Al Mampre and another member of Easy company along with Ross McCall (Leibgott), James Maddio (Perconte) and a Holocaust survivor and Babe said that aside from Easy not finding the camp (another Army company found it and liberated it the day before), the men were not allowed to interact with the survivors like they showed. Only the medics and doctors were allowed to treat the survivors

German now loser

70mill+ Lives worlds population was roughly 2.3billion

Unfortunately, every single family in Russia (and the former Soviet Union) lost someone during the Great Patriotic War; in every family, someone fought in the war-a father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and so on. My great-grandfather on my mother’s side had an exemption from mobilization because he was a political officer (zampolit) in the village of Gremyachye (Гремячье), Voronezh region, but he volunteered for the army. He went missing during the heavy fighting near Leningrad, close to the village of Yam-Izhora (the Yam-Izhora operation). His body is still lying somewhere in the ground in that area. At the same time, my grandmother, the daughter of my great-grandfather, was just a 12-year-old girl living in the village with her family. In 1942, the Hungarian Second Army entered the village and occupied it (yes, it wasn’t the Germans, but Hungarians, who were called "magyars"). They lived under occupation until the village was liberated in January 1943. Long after the war ended, in the 1970s, my mother would visit this village to see her grandmother. She clearly remembers a Nazi helmet in the chicken coop, which was used as a bowl for feeding grain to the chickens. Where I was born, there are many forests. As children, we spent all our free time in the woods and often found traces of the war: trenches, bomb craters, and even graves of unnamed soldiers, marked with crosses made from two thick sticks. It was a very powerful feeling to realize how many terrible events had once taken place there. It’s an incomparable experience to see the traces of that colossal tragedy in nature itself, to feel a connection to the events and the people who were there, who suffered and died.

If we learned something from history than to never piss off germany💀

Entirely men.

Ngl, I almost cried when u started shedding tears 😭

In the US there were women who flew aircraft from the factories to ether their final destination or a depot where they would be flow overseas. Sometimes these aircraft would crash and the crews would be killed. There were also women who did maintenance on aircraft. My M other was in the US Navy WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service). She repaired PBY Catalina flying boats on the West coast that did anti submarine patrols. Other countries also had women in the military or who were resistance fighters.

Мне понравилось: В европе не было войн, кроме вторжения в венгрию, а Югославия? Забыли как новые B2 бомбили неугодных?

Do you know that more than 80% of the explosives in Nazi Germany were produced by "I.G. Farben", and this organization also produced "Zyklon-B" for the destruction of prisoners. And their partner was (among others) "US Standard Oil". It was "US Standard Oil" that supplied oil to Nazi aviation. Much of the Nazi money was stored and laundered at the "Union Banking Corp. New York City". "Union Banking" was seized "for trading with the enemy during the war." Who was the head (director and vice president) of Union Banking at that time? Prescott BUSH is the grandfather of George W. Bush.

"I've never heard of Treblinka." Trust me, you don't want to know anything about it. At least in Auschwitz, you had a chance of being able to survive by working. Not in Treblinka.

This video should just be taken down for spreadin misinformation. Calling everyone nazis who was german. smh. get historically literate or SHUT UP.

The Invasion of Poland,[e] also known as the September Campaign,[f] Polish Campaign,[g] and Polish Defensive War of 1939[h][13] (1 September - 6 October 1939), was a joint attack on the Republic of Poland by Nazi Germany, the Slovak Republic, and the Soviet Union. Why are everyone os quick to forget or purposely hide soviet unions role in it? Because USA allied with USSR so we cannot call them bad guys becayse we allied with them. SAD

2:20 USSR had women serving in every role. eg Lyudmila Pavlichenko was a sniper with 309 confirmed kills. The 'Night Witches' 588th Night Bomber Regiment was an all female air wing. Alies tended to have females kept in auxiliary roles although in the UK there where women serving in AA units. eg 93rd Searchlight Regiment, Royal Artillery which was essentially 'frontline duty' as searchlights and AA guns where usually pre-targeted in bombing raids. All the Death Camps where in Poland. Concentration/Work Camps where everywhere.

Respect and honor to every soldier who gave his life there, no matter where he came from or what he fought for, a true soldier with honor and pride has my utmost respect, heroes in the wrong war against brothers...so sad, the best go first, so why souldn't i die like them too, i wanna meet them in the afterlife.

Я русский. Это не для меня.

Episode 9 entitled "Why We Fight" is perhaps the best hour of television ever committed to film.

13:15 in UK living 56 million and there in video lost aall ready 41 million.

02:21 womens was nurses, snipers, cooks, radio communiction persons, military industry , media photograps on war, air flight managers.

World War II was the deadliest military conflict in history. An estimated total of 70-85 million people perished, or about 3% of the estimated global population of 2.3 billion in 1940.

82 days compared with 6 years

I express my gratitude to British and American philosophers and writers who, at the behest of merchants to justify colonialism and slavery, created the idea of racial superiority of the white man........

Fun fact , british and usa lost in WW2 something like 420k soldiers , the soviet union suffered losses of 27 million citizens 14 of which were military. And at the same time the red army did not organise a single Dresden in Nazi Germany, the red army did not fight with the civilian population........

I would like to get an explanation, how the fuck is it possible to evacuate several million people in less than a month, in a country in which there is a war without precedent, the equal of which mankind has never known before, what kind of cruelty of Stalin we are talking about? You are sick to the bone, you are trying to show the historical truth, but political ideological propaganda indoctrinated into your minds from school still makes itself felt. It frightens me that mankind is going the way your countries, who created everything you see in this video clip, are pointing out......

Hear these figures, the US and Britain killed 500,000 Nazis during the whole war, the Red Army killed 500,000 Nazis in the Battle of Stalingrad alone, how can you ignoramuses say you won WW2? What is wrong with you?

To all foreigners, from countries not the former USSR, a very big request, when you talk about the army of the USSR, or when you talk about the people of the USSR, do not call them «Russian», it is better to call the army - «red army», the people - «people of the USSR». It's the same as if the whole world thought that only white people live in the United States, and that there is no one there except whites, and the people of the United States were called «white.»

cowards like you die a thousand times in their life, these men died once.

Always amazes me that people ask questions such as .. I wonder this, or I wonder that, while reacting to videos as this one...google for 2 seconds, and u will know MOST things u wish to know :P What u are not changing you are choosing :P

The picture of the mother trying to protect her child just before execution gets me every time.

2:08 Soviet Union actually had women serving at the front, mostly medics but also pilots, snipers, machine gunners, tank crew members and partisans, although the numbers were small relative to the men.

imagine germany never had beef with the sowjets. the allies would have lost millions of soldiers. maybe even some countries pulling out of the war. i get mad everytime the US. puts themselfs as the winning force and the ultimate sacrificers of WW2. the US sacrificed nothing compared to other countries.

СССР потеряла 8 милионов солдат, были ещё обычные гражадане, которые тоже помогали в сражении, особенно дети. Общая число 26 милионов людей со стороны СССР

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮😬

As a half Russian, this part from 7:06 rips my heart, there's a saying every families from former Soviet Union lost someone in the great war. I lost my great grandfather and his brothers, some of whom went missing and never heard of them...

Are kamikaze plains, 60 thousand deaths a drop in the ocean.give me strength.

This is what we need to remember

Long / new peace is ended

The video also shows how insignificant the US military was in europe. Yet they always pretend they won the war alone.
