For anyone curious, GOM means "Grand Old Man." In this context, they're referring to President Hindenburg.
I honestly thought it meant "Grumpy Old Man"...

What a proud moment for the soldiers.
Great footage looks as crisp as today, what a great historical record.
Love how he goes to hte side of the formatin to check if they are all perfectly in line ;D
What a beautiful recording of the Preußischer Präsentiermarsch, Präsentiermarsch der Spielleute, and Nationalhyme.
not quite right, it's the Spielleute präsentiermarsch not the Preußische Präsentiermarsch
@@N21. both are played at the same time, although the Preußischer Präsentiermarsch was played first by itself.
@@commanderwayanyeah but so only said the Nationalhymne and Preußischen präsentiermarsch but you have forgotten the Präsentiermarsch from the Spielleute Drums and fifes
@@N21. sorry, my bad.
If only Weimar had weathered the financial crash! The world would be a much happier place today.
Today, Russia is entering the beginning of its financial collapse. History repeats itself, don't you think?
@@333dmg Indeed.
@Leibstandarte Archive We would certainly have had to wait longer for it!
But the world being today like the 1990s technologically but much wealthier due to having avoided the destruction and death of WW2 sounds to me like a better world.
@Leibstandarte Archive That was because the government had to step in during war and provide jobs in the war economy. There is no reason why such a ‘war economy’ couldn’t be achieved in peacetime as a means to boost employment.
But in the case of the US, they benefited enormously from the loans they were owed by European countries and the adoption of the dollar on international markets.
Britain also got socialism as a result of the war which massively helped the working class, but a war wasn’t necessary to achieve this. British debt and unemployment were both falling in the late 1930s whilst the pound remained strong on the international markets - but the huge intaking of debt in WWII bankrupted the country and lost it its place as a superpower.
This was in probably the least affected European belligerent of the entire war - the main continent being destroyed.
The US may have gained from WWII (despite the 400,000 dead), but the rest of the world certainly didn’t. And for the horrors, Hitler stands guilty.
Or better yet, if only the German Empire had either won WW1 or stayed out of it.
i like Hindenburg
Do u Like Adolf H😅😅😅?
Ein sehr schönes Video 💖👍
I would gladly have one of their helmets. One still can find rusty stahlhelms riddled with bullets over here in the forests of South of Russia.
Love that band playing
At his side Reichswehrminister Generalleutnant Wilhelm v. Groener, at that time, there is no Papen
6'6" Prussian Chad:
Is he wearing oxfords or button boots, it's really hard to tell.
Listen to Ludendorf if you want to know what type of man Hindenburg was!
you mean that guy that was one of the front mans of the first hitlerputsch?
@@Janiik Yes
Love this old fooage of von hindenburg everything shouts out if only
El Anciano Caballero.
I see you've made the pilgrimage
Слова лишь слова, я не говорю, я делаю, люблю своих солдат. 😅
Я только так могу описать это видео.
just two comment ?
Many more
Fun fact: Hindenburg loved to whisper to donkey testicals before he started to yank on them
💀
bruh wut?
Who doesn't?
los chilenos no entieden marcha peresidencial
Unfortunate
At his side Von Papen, last chancelor before Hitler, then vice-chancelor of Hitler.Also general Blomberg dismissed on 1939.Hindenburg was elected president against Hitler by a large coalition including the social-democrats, but not the communists who maintained their candidate Tälmann at the second turn.Later Hindenburg approved the nomination of Hitler as a chancelor, and communists and social-democrats were arrested and lost their jobs ! That's the kind of reactionary traitor against democracy he was ! He was much respected as a Fieldmarshall and, with Ludendorff, organiser of the old imperial army,same kind of caracter as Maréchal Pétain !
No at his side is Wilhelm Groener, then defence minister, Blomberg was dismissed in 1938, especially commznists but also social democrats should be forbidden in every state, like Austria did under Dollfuß, a good man, and there's no dogma that democracy is always good or dictatorship is always bad, although both can be used for good or bad; while Hitler certainly was demonically influenced, the main Motive for his appointment wasn't his antisemitism (I think Hindenburg didn't even know that or to which degree Hitler was since barely anyone read Mein Kampf), but his ability to end the constant skirmishes and quarrels on the streets in the previous years, i.e. restore order. Maréchal Pétain also was a good man except his collaboration with the Nazis and the personality cult, but both he and Hindenburg were conservative men who wanted peace, order and a society without envy/false egalitarianism which causes chaos/a family structure suited for the mother and father's respective special abilities
Interesting comparing him to Pétain. If You think of it, there are several similar points of view between the old european militar stablishments and the facists and national socialists.
