Sometimes the best way out is through. Staying put isn't an option, and safely reversing is a lot harder than plowing over the fuckers in a fast tank like the Sherman.
Think about it like this, you are getting hit from the side and the front. How do you stop getting hit from one side? Destroying the enemy is the hardest way, going straight through the positions in front of you will stop the positions to your left from hitting you at the very least without cross fire but most of the time hitting you at all.
Adrenaline is an amazing substance. Essentially, he was drugged... And, yes, at times, all the combatant nations also issued amphetamines to their troops.
@@ID-8491Story seems to be enhanced yes because that is not what his distinguished cross citation says. He was apparently gunned down by small arms fire while jumping from one tank to the other. His death inspired his troops to move forward in the assault.
I love how you introduced the character you let the audience build a connection to them, and sometimes they don’t make it! I don’t know why but ever since I was little, I’ve always been drawn to World War II history, European theater. If I had a chance to go back in time, I would definitely fight in the European theater or be a pilot. Aviation comes natural to me. And I’m not even going to exaggerate when I went through Boot Camp and graduated from Paris Island in 2006 two days before Halloween. It was an awesome experience in the crucible was fine AF. There’s just something about having all your gear on. Knowing that at any moment it could all be over. Marine Corps Boot Camp in Paris Island when I went through. They still had a lot of the training tapered around Vietnam era. I don’t know how it is today.. I mean I heard the US Army no longer yells at recruits, they have allegedly a stress card if the drill sergeant tries to yell at somebody or punish them, and the soldier feels stressed. They hold up a card and they don’t have to do anything they get a couple of minutes to their self and proceed. I think it’s revolutionary that the army is going about that route, because we all know in battle your feelings matter ! Lol
I mean, in battle & life your feelings do matter, 100%. If you're angry, tired, depressed, anxious, restless etc, its important to understand how you feel (& hopefully, why) to best address the situation & balance any bias you might have because of your emotional state (e.g. if your depressed, you might feel like throwing your life away needlessly, or if you're angry, you might be so mad you accidentally hit a fellow soldier while shooting angrily). Plus, one of the main problems any modern military faces is recruitment, so making your job less horrible, with a lower chance of depression, suicidality, PTSD & even chronic pain helps not only the soldier, but the country too (inc. less spending on post-deployment healthcare).
Because it was kinda pointless to keep on pushing. It would have been more reasonable to pull back from the first ambush and wait until air support and reinforcements arrive. But instead he took a different route which lead to another ambush only this time he pushed through. They did make it in the end but they simply lost too many tanks and soldiers that could have probably been avoided. It seems like they didn't even scout the region beforehand they just went in not knowing what could happen.
@@casematecardinalHe should have used his better judgement and realised when something was hopeless. Winters, who you may know from a certain TV show, was told after his final patrol resulting in 2 prisoners taken to repeat the same thing. He realised that it would be suicide now that their enemy were expecting it, and told his commander to go have a drink and informed his men to report they had done a patrol but taken no prisoners.
Man, i've seen the animation go from simple to this masterpiece, love the work you put into this, makes it easier and more interesting to learn about all those battles in history that would be forgotten by most. Keep up the good work.
That's incredible bravery under hopeless situation, struggle and struggle till the end, never giving up despite tremendous injuries. Something I can definitely learn from!
Not saying he wasn’t brave, but there definitely is a fine line to draw between bravery and idiocy. Ordering your men to advance against well entrenched and unanticipated defences without reinforcements or adequate reconnaissance after losing at least 7 vehicles and likely many more toes that line.
@@carrott36 They thought the dirt road would be safe or at least safer. They weren't expecting such strong defensives from the germans on the dirt road. The higher ups refused to reinforce his company so why wait, disobey and let some other people risk there lives. Do you really think you could disobey your direct commander?
@@bonelesspizza3726America was one of the leading nations in tactical decision making and the use of communications. Upon encountering armour and anti-armour defences, they should’ve contacted command and explained the situation instead of moving forward.
Wow the animation is incredible and the storytelling is so good, I was sitting on the edge of my chair in awe at every twist of the battle. Thank you for bringing those amazing war stories back to life and sharing them with us, you are doing a great job
I knew a veteran of "The Thundering Herd: in the ordnance and maintenance battalion who vividly recalls this ambush on his unit, he placed the blame on a hotheaded officer in the staff who ordered these tanks to move forwards in a rush to reach the Rhein. He described several 88's and other caliber anti-tank guns engaging their tanks from a distance, and how the road was too marshy on either side of the road to get of the road, so the wrecks of other tanks prevented much movement.. The tanks advanced far enough ahead of their pinned down infantry to be engaged by enemy infantry from both ditches on either side of the road with panzerfausts and panzerschrecks. Part of his job was recovering these wrecked vehicles, which he never went into detail about. Rest in peace Richard.
Man, the first time I saw this channel was the two medics on the church story, animation was snappy and seems rough, but look at the channel now, it grows and the quality has significantly improved both in story narratives and animations. Keep up the good work! I hope the channel will expand the story to another part of the world, such as asia or africa Edit: I just realised they remastered the story, it was fantastic.
Watching your posts is so much better than 99% of the garbage on TV. I can't wait until your next video. Man this one gave me goosebumps! Tucker is one of the toughest hombres ever. What a man and what balls he had. Epic battle!
been watching since around 100k. your animations are so much better. love acting, everything. its crazy how your team has gotten so far so fast. Much love and appreciation from australia!
The videos that you produce are just constantly getting better in quality and a now near approaching almost true-to-the-eye realism that they no longer seem to be animations as there are "flesh and blood" actors!!! Kudos to you for quality videos!!!
Only one complaint on the animation, the Thompson Submachine Gun that he was using was ejecting what looks like rifle rounds when in reality it'd be spitting out short and thick 45 acp shells
There's a reason they are called "The Greatest Generation." These guys were just built different... Also, just a DSC? This man deserves the Medal of Honor. Congress, make it happen.
Its probably because his commanders knew his decision making was stupid and got many men needlessly killed and shermans destroyed while accomplishing very little..
I like the little details. And not just the visual details, but the details such as when the tank commander shouts "hiho silver". That's what the lone ranger shouts to his horse. That was released in 1936, and exactly what the commander would be watching back at home. Such an easy thing to skip over, but they added that extra realism. Yarnhub really puts in research and effort.
Yet another amazing video Yarnhub! It's always the ones where the subject doesn't survive that get me. If I may be so bold as to propose a future video idea as Ive done before, I'd love to see a video from the Italian side of the war, the escapades of Amadeo Guillet, Unatu Endisciau, the action at Bir El Gubi, or the charge at Izbushenski come to mind there
I would love it if Yarnhub did a video on the Monchy 9 of Newfoundland. 9 men of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment positioned at Monchy-le-Preux during the Battle of Arras in 1917 hid behind shrubbery and defended the town from a German force anywhere from 200 - 300 men strong for 11 hours to prevent a German break through. I think it is a very cool and very underrated battle that sounds like the plot of a movie.
Kemble “Cowboy” Tucker was an American captain who served in the 36th Tank Battalion, 8th Armored Division during World War II. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his bravery in leading an assault on enemy positions near Rheinberg, Germany on March 5th, 1945. He was killed in action that same day and buried at the Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial in Margraten
What a sacrifice....Rheinberg is one of the neighbour cities here...not too far away. Excellent production quality. Thanks god, we do life in peace - but there are many wars going on the world these days...sad, but true.
I just discovered your channel. I just wanted to say I love the story telling and the animation. Moreover, I am glad these stories are being told and that they have a chance to live on. People don't realize what these men did, and they were last of an era where the country was unified in a common goal.
Absolutely stupid of command to think the Germans would not put up a ferocious resistance of their homeland in the situation. Certainly cowboy knew something was wrong and they should have heeded caution
The Panzer IV Tucker's crew mention in 08:00, is a Panzer IV Ausf. H, noticeable by add-on steel plates on the tank turret's cheek and backside. In ww2 though, especially in chaotic moments, the allies often mistook the Panzer IV Ausf. H silhouette as a Tiger I. So, kudos for Tucker's tank crew to be able to correctly identify the tank correctly in the midst of chaos of the ambush
The final tally of the battle for Rheinberg. CCB men of the 8th Armored accomplished their mission, but the defense put up by the Germans in an attempt to hold open an escape route to Wesel was nothing less than outstanding. The 49th AIB suffered 68 casualties, while the 36th had 131 either wounded or killed in action. From the German ranks, 512 prisoners were taken and 350 killed. The 36th Tank Battalion lost a total of 41 tanks. Company B had lost all but six tanks. Company A fared somewhat better, but a final count showed 11 of its tanks knocked out. Company D, which had been ordered to attack from the southwest, left 17 of its 18 tanks along the road and the remaining tank had to be withdrawn.
It’s a stowage point for the cupola MG. In combat, the MG is mounted on the cupola, but for transport the MG is mounted on the rear mounting point and the barrel locked to stop it from moving. The locking bracket is visible in the scene to the left of the mounting point. Display/museum tanks are generally set up as they would be in a combat situation, although they don’t always have a complete set of armaments (either due to legal restrictions or simply because the museum doesn’t have/has chosen not to display every armament), as are tanks in film/TV. If I remember correctly, there is a scene in Band of Brothers, possibly the Brécourt Manor assault in Episode 2, in which Sherman tanks come rolling through a hedgerow just as the Germans counterattack Easy Co. with infantry and armour. At least one of the Shermans has a crewman stood on the engine deck firing the .50 from its stowage point, possibly alluding to the fact that Shermans were driving off the landing craft at Utah beach and straight into combat. If I remember to, I’ll find the scene and edit this comment to include it.
Ive been wondering about the perspective of the 2 shermans that survived a full night like its Fury (2015) all over its atmosphere during that fight. Those guys were safe thanks to the Cowboy that put fear onto the infantrymen. Pretty much holding them back from getting too close, unknowingly
I like your work and I've seen a lot of your releases, but could you please also do something with Czechoslovaks? For example, about the defense of Czajank's barracks? Thanks in advance :-) EDIT: Please like so Yarnhub can see this
One Armed cow boy vs German military Wow amazing animation 👌 by Yarn Hub team 👏 voice 🎤 narration semma super The Quality Animation narration of war sequence
So he was a poor commander that led his men into multiple traps and kept pushing without any strategy and with great disregard for his and his men's lives.
This was the 8th armored division, my fathers unit. He passed through this area. By the time he went through, there were no dead Americans. They had all already been picked up. All the dead Germans, however, lay where they fell.
The Great Depression little food very tough times , then call upon to fight battle hardened veterans in countries most had never thought about . Called upon to save the world and did it . They did the impossible ! Thank You !
It really is a fascinating microcosm of the war on the western front in a way - all those clever tactics and ingenious defences, and the Americans just keep pushing until they break anyway. Because they can, and so they will.

You have to get off the X at any cost. Often, pushing through is the safest way
Sometimes you have to go through the fire, despite the odds.

I'm amazed that Tucker lived as long as he did without bleeding to death from his horrific injury. A very brave man indeed - and a harrowing story.

At least one of the Shermans has a crewman stood on the engine deck firing the .50 from its stowage point, possibly alluding to the fact that Shermans were driving off the landing craft at Utah beach and straight into combat. If I remember to, I’ll find the scene and edit this comment to include it.
Him jumping from the tank was like master chief.
Ive been wondering about the perspective of the 2 shermans that survived a full night like its Fury (2015) all over its atmosphere during that fight.
Those guys were safe thanks to the Cowboy that put fear onto the infantrymen. Pretty much holding them back from getting too close, unknowingly
Love your work and tip of advice “we can all be proud of who we are and what we do if we try”
He took them on singlehanded.
God your animation has gottem so much better over the years! Expecially at 4:20, I thought for a second it was a live action!!!!
I like your work and I've seen a lot of your releases, but could you please also do something with Czechoslovaks? For example, about the defense of Czajank's barracks?
Thanks in advance :-)
EDIT: Please like so Yarnhub can see this
The battle of Lake Baikal would also be a good one. Sadly the anniversary (16th of August) has already come and gone but still
Yes, that's awesome story :-)@@firestorm165

So he was a poor commander that led his men into multiple traps and kept pushing without any strategy and with great disregard for his and his men's lives.
This was the 8th armored division, my fathers unit. He passed through this area. By the time he went through, there were no dead Americans. They had all already been picked up. All the dead Germans, however, lay where they fell.
War Thunder is better
It's amazing how realistic the animation has gotten
The Great Depression little food very tough times , then call upon to fight battle hardened veterans in countries most had never thought about . Called upon to save the world and did it . They did the impossible ! Thank You !

dude had to be awarded the Medal of Honor for all I care. now, let's just salute him
If the army had given that man a six-shooter he would've still been alive.
This is how wars should be fought, where one side does not have overwhelming advantage over the other.

It really is a fascinating microcosm of the war on the western front in a way - all those clever tactics and ingenious defences, and the Americans just keep pushing until they break anyway. Because they can, and so they will.
