These docs with the Canadian vets are great. They have some exceptionally heartfelt and informative stories to tell.
1 of them isn't a Canadian I believe he is from the North East of England, Newcastle maybe or Middlesbrough. But yea great documentary nevertheless.
Norm Christies series of docos on Canada's WW1 & WW2 are outstanding!
Problem is I can't make out what they're saying...and they speak too slowly.
@pistonburner6448 I can understand them perfectly. I'm not British Scottish Irish.
Can’t Change History No Two A Like ❤
A tragic and compelling story. But it illustrates the Canadians' willingness to face battle. A TRIBUTE to the fine Canadian Navy! God Bless!
A TRIBUTE to the Canadian Canadian Airmen! Bless you all!
Magnificent, but please stop blurring parts of your films, everything needs to be seen in full.
WTF are you talking about? Nothing is blurred. Some old photos are in poor condition, that's all.
There most certainly was some blurry pictures and no it’s not because they were old. It’s RUclips doing it, I’ve seen this very thing in other WWll documentaries. From what I understand the people posting the videos have no choice.
@@SplashJohnNope. There was a scene of Buchenwald that was totally blurred out by YT assumedly because it showed naked bodies on a trailer that were being described
RUclips communism is why they have to blur pics.
I hope that old guy that survived learned to forgive himself.
Edit: the first story.
Both stories are shocking but need to be recorded and heard, and the emotions of the survivors,
LEAST WE FORGET, and RIP to those that didn't make it.
Great film. Appreciate you sharing it with the world.
Rarely mentioned are the 47,000 merchant seamen from Canada, USA and Britain that lost their lives during the war, mostly to uboats.
CHARMING AND VERY BEAUTIFUL DOCUMENTARY .. SOOOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL
Marine veteran in Sc thanks for your channel it’s great.
Great story. Thanks for preserving this history.
We can learn so much from what these men endured and sacrificed on both sides... I feel the way the world is today.... we haven't learned anything..... and it's a tragedy that we should know better that killing people is never the answer.... The hate, pain and suffering that war causes is never worth the price humanity has to pay....
Thank you a lot of this. Not sure it's the right niche but if anyone loves this topic I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's videos on the U-Boats as scourge of the Atlantic
Blud really promoting someone else
A very moving tribute to these amazing Canadians / Un hommage très émouvant à ces incroyables Canadiens
Their ship had no backup battery power or even a hand-crank so they could send a distress signal???
Well, that's a glaring design flaw!
30:47 it's so interesting to hear somebody who dropped tones of bombs over civilians to complain about his conditions in a camp...
It was a CONCENTRATION CAMP! The very reason the Allies had to bomb in the first place - not a proper POW camp. I know, this is all over your head…
82...
It doesn't matter which way you look at it, Germany in WW2 could of won the battle with England if he had more U-Boats. The Eastern Front was a entirely different story.
More u boats and more planes in the beginning and they could have squashed Britain and focused solely on the eastern front
I don’t understand: was the Bridge actually notified of the ASDIC contact or not? If they were & replied: “Disregard”, well, that’s the deal - Captain McMillan responsible. A “small surface ship” shouldn’t have echo’d from underwater? Maybe the hull? I feel bad for all, wonderful, dedicated people trying their best - war is never “fair”…
All of these MEN served in vain. Our nations have ALL allowed corruption to destroy us all from within. I pray that they find a quiet corner in heaven to forget the pains of war.
Why humans hate each other? wondering
religion or ego
@@JackF99 lack of religion and education, autism, ADHD.
Even marriages between same citizens end in murder sometimes. So different countries and languages and customs is a no brainer
@@williamh3823 Even mad people are in charge of rules. This is the major cause of harm.
censor stories
Great but would benefit from subtitles!!
You can add them yourself at the top of the screen where it says CC

Chill out buddy they provided two episodes in one. For free.
Have you ever considered that the moon is actually more important than the sun because it gives us light at night when it’s dark but the sun gives light during day when it’s already light out?
How exactly do you think the moon gives off light at night? It’s the suns light reflecting off the moon.
The sun is also the reason why it's light outside.
