Kevin, once again, thank you! You are an exceptional history teacher! I love history! And I love being a part of a group of students who have found a teacher who shares that love of history!! I am so happy that we now number over 50,000! It is incredible, and I have no doubt that one day we, your students and fellow history buffs will number 1,000,000+. I look forward to that day. You deserve it, and you've earned it. Thank you, and well done!
My goodness Mina, you've left me speechless (almost 😉). I'm so grateful to you and all my other subscribers and look I forward to delivering lots more history and stories as we go along. Best, Kevin 👍🏻
The first casualty of war is the truth, the worlds owned and controlled MSM have been lieing to us for years , that's why they have been kicked out of every country they have ever been in, it's time to take back our Central banks from these parasitic psychopaths once and for all.
Great video, Kevin. Read Mein Kampf years ago to try and better understand what drove the man. Never agreed to the beliefs expressed in it. What disturbs me about some of the politics in America, is the belief by some of our politicians, to place party over the constitution. That is a recipe for disaster. Just because some are of the opinion that what is good for the party, is automatically good for the country is misguided and leads to a unstable society. In the military our oath was to the constitution, not any one politician or party. Take care and look forward to you next video.
Also read Churchill's Zionism vs Bolshevism and Henry Ford's The International Jew, David living, Ernest Zundel and David Cole, we have been lied to for a long time.
@@alisonhilll4317 umm, please tell me how exactly antisemitic trash like that proves we’ve been lied to? You got a problem with Jews love? Then spit it out, don’t be coy about it.
I love how Kevin always uses the word "film" instead of "video" or "episode". It adds to the intellectual academic integrity of the channel, by sounding so quintessentially British.
Another interesting, piece. This is a great channel. Thank you, Kevin. Wow a four hour speech is incredible. A lot of unanswered questions surrounding this case.
The way Germany was treated at the end of WWI created the perfect environment for someone like Hitler and his cronies to rise. We'd definitely learnt our lesson for the end of WWII, or at least so in West Germany and Japan. Another absolutely fantastic video, very objectively presented with just the facts. I've read Engels and Marx but I’ve never read Mein Kampf, I might just look for a copy on eBay.
Thanks Mark. You won't need to look on eBay, I got my copy through Amazon as amazingly it's still in print! I have a video to release on Mein Kampf soon, so stay tuned 👍🏻
@@thehistorysquad I think it's not still in print, it's again in print. It wasn't banned, but Bavaria did hold the copyrights on it and thus could stop it from being printed and distributed. But the copyright ended a few years ago, so everybody can reprint and sell it now
Great telling Kevin. It’s the first WWII story I’ve seen you do. Here’s an underreported story I’d love to see more on. Have you heard of the DDay intelligence failure and subsequent American Coverup, dealing with The Maisey Battery? I was amazed by the story and the fact that hundreds of lives were lost due to an intelligence failure, and no one knows about it. One of the most studied attacks in history. When the Americans really want something covered up. They literally Bury it!! Thanks.
Goering's wounds are believed to be the cause of his morphine addiction. Opiate misuse has been going on since it was more or less discovered and refined. Your details on the "trial" and Hitler's activities in Landsburg are spot on ! New subscriber. I've seen several of your videos, and as a "student" of history, quite enjoyed them.
I'm not a supporter obviously but does always make me curious to find out more of how and why his mind tics, how he gained such a following and how he used his intelligence to fool millions.
Kevin, and team, your history talks are just fascinating, and a great reminder you are never too old to learn interesting facts! It keeps my grey cells kicking over. I am getting through the archive, and very thankful for it - are there any interviews with Kevin, the historian? A great storyteller, sounds like you have had a fascinating career, I'd love to hear that story too!
Thanks very much! I have a couple of personal stories that I sometime tie into history, they're in the Personal Stories playlist if you haven't already seen them. I'll keep posting bits and pieces now and then, but there's no interview as such. Maybe I'll go live one day and answer questions that way 😜
Hi Kevin! I am so Happy to see you on youtube talking about all kinds of things that interested you and share it with us. Know you from the longbow Video. You are an amazing storyteller! Looking forward to your next video. :D
I'm currently reading "When Money Dies" by Adam Ferguson. In this book it was mentioned briefly that due to the conditions of Germany in the 1920's, the German people were increasingly wanted a leader similar to those who were in charge during the Teutonic Order. And iirc, this is what Hitler was aspiring to. To become the leader his fellow countryman wanted. I'll find that section in the book and edit my post in a bit.
What an interesting story, I feel as though not a lot of people would have known this. Most people only know Hitler for what he was. Thank you for sharing this rather interesting part of history with us.
Look into his involvement with the 1919 Bavarian revolutions and his speech in praise of Lenin in 1921 the democratic part of the National Democratic Socialist Party is a blind but the national Socialist part is true
I read in a book somewhere, that Adolf Hitler had a toothache that day..the day of the Beer Hall Putsch. Some crony told Adolf Hitler that perhaps he should see a Dentist. According to what I read, Adolf says:' What?! Shall the course of History be changed because of a toothache???!!!'
Nice comment. I'll let you into a secret here........Adolf Hitler was terrified of the dentist. What teeth he had left at the end of his life were brown and his breath was bad.
Kevin you display true bravery taking on this subject in the age of cancel culture. We all have an idea on how the story ends, but few know how it started.... I think you are going to remedy that.
April fools, actually its New Years Day of the Julian Calendar which is kept Europeans closer to natures laws and seasons. Sharing a cell with Emil Maurice a significant man in the grand scheme of things, his close friend and later his SS personal body guard.
1.) General Erich Ludendorff was not a "von", he was not of noble stock. 2.) Ludendorff is an interesting figure to study. All the nighmarish political ideas were already there with Ludendorff, concerning creating an empire in Eastern Europe, Poland, Ukraine, etc. Hitler took much from Ludendorff, he didn't come up with these ideas all by himself. Still Ludendorff and his role in WWI in the east is not so prominently studied.
@@thehistorysquad I just read it on Wikipedia after your hint. He was right. It all happened like he has foreseen. But the not so funny fact is: if Ludendorff would have come to power instead of Hitler, the same would be true.
Fun fact although he stated he wasn't involved in Mein Kampf Hitler was involved in an armed revolution in Bavaria in 1919 and not only was he a communist he was his battalion's representative to the local soviet or ruling committee Nazism is just another form of authoritarian socialism
I think that most history buffs own a copy of "Mein Kampf". I have Vol.I & Vol.II published by Hurst & Blackett. I found the whole thing rather boring myself; Hitler was quite the windy barnacle.
The humiliation of the Versailles treaty made Germany's ppl dangerously maliabil to ppl like Hitler. In my personal opinion, it's scary how many similarities there is to Trump and I'm only saying that as an observation.
I've never read Mein Kampf. I've heard it's quite repetitive. When I was in High School I had some friends that were experimenting with odd things like the Satanic Bible by LaVey, and after the first few pages I was like, "alright, enough already. I get it, it's all about me first and screw everyone else. Who needs to read this for the other 200 pages?". Boring.
There were many, at the time, cultural idéas about the connections between man, nature and nation I find intressting that sort of created a favorable discourse for the Nazis' ideology.
Great video! I love your storytelling. Your awesome Kevin! I hope you keep growing like a weed. My wife and I love your series on the Hundred Years’ War. We hope you keep doing that series and all your medieval stuff.
Your welcome! Sir! 😀 Oh I’m American and they didn’t teach us in school that much about the HYW! That will be awesome. If your every in Oklahoma City I will buy you some ale Sir! God bless!
It is really chilling how you can see how early Hitler had a lot of supporters, it is clear that the justice system of Germany was on his side that they would let him go. There was a “cult of personality” that followed him and if one watches his speeches he really has a way of getting to the crowd. He starts off soft and calm then builds up and leads one in. Some of the things he said he knew would get people on his side, there was a time he was loved in Germany and what he and his fellow Nazis were doing was over looked because he was so charming and so on. A very good reason for never trusting people in power (and as an American I don’t) and speaking out even when that is not popular before it is too late.
It’s not really chilling when your country is being manipulated by Zionist bankers and somebody says they’re going to put an end to it and put the nationalist well-being at the forefront of priorities politically
Another brilliant video mate. Always been fascinated by your history stories after seeing you many a time on my frequent trips from brum to warwick Castle as a child and teen. Keep it up Kevin 👍
I love these videos! they are so interesting and i’m studying this subject in school at the moment and it’s really helping me get a greater understanding of it. Thank you Kevin 🍺
What a shame. By not executing him for treason, Germany’s soft on crime stance doomed millions. Of course Stalin had his sights on Germany and France. Joe’s slogan could have been “Today Russia, tomorrow the world!” Good covering Goering’s wounds. It was those that led to his morphine addiction. Thanks for the insightful and chilling installation. One could sum it all up by saying “The fix was in!” Cheers!
NB he was Von Hindenburg, but only Ludendorf, a non Prussian aristocratic. The opening photo is very intriguing - is that Hitler in stahlhelm and extra 8 mm Mauser ammo? Or another member of the Putsch?
Bringing history to life! I often wonder what caused the people 9like Hitler) to become the people they became. Was he the Furher (al be it unrecognised) when he visited Blackpool before he became famous? Or did chance and circumstance mould him later?
You have to look right back at how he was treated by his mother for the roots of his narcissism. I'll be covering some more about Hitler in due course. Thanks for watching Dave 👍🏻
Did you provide clues to your opinion concerning hitlers soft treatment and time in prison as possibly conspiratorial? I think public educators need to extol this point. Historical events aren’t always isolated and random would you agree?
I would absolutely love an episodic release covering Hitler from his involvement in WW1 and the subsequent theories surrounding his death/departure to Argentina
Is that a real nazi uniform in the back? How do you get something like that? I’m fascinated by all things ww2 and would love to get my hands on some authentic stuff.
The way I got hold of it is a long story I might set to video one day. Some of it's real, some is replica, but essentially Soldier of Fortune in North Wales.
Apparently, in WWI, Hitler was a message runner, and had earned something of a reputation for courage under fire. He was a soldier's soldier, which garnered him some of his early support. Too bad for him his experiences didn't translate into any kind of strategic talent down the road. ='[.]'=
I really enjoy your chanel every time I watch you presentations I learn things I never new I now your ex military but did you go on to be a history teachers if not society mistout on a good teacher love the chanel I thumbs up every time not what I usually do can't wait till the next video
Cheers Dave. I never was a teacher because I never went to University, but even better, I took my knowledge and skills into schools to deliver freelance history presentations and workshops for over 25 years. It became a full time job and none of the hassle of homework marking, grading and exam time 😉
Thanks again. I wonder if you're familiar with something this reminded me of that I went to see while at school - I forget the name of the play and I'm not sure when exactly I saw it (in London possibly between 1998-2002), but the premise was that Hitler was taken alive in 1945 and put on trial, with the "jury" being we the audience and a proper ballot held as to whether he was personally responsible for the war or not. I won't spoil the endings for anyone, but it was a really good piece of performative history that probably still would work as a teaching tool if it isn't already still running.
Thank you so much! Very interesting as always. I got this feeling... That any time soon you will be talking about one Vlad Putin.. just saying. Greetings from Costa Rica. I really hope you keep on this wonderful work for many many years to come. My best wishes for you and your beloved ones.
Just subscribed! Love your videos, Sir. I really loved the way you tell your stories and the voice is very relaxing. I listen to your videos until I go to sleep. Please do more WW1-WW2 stories!!! Thank you very much.
This is such an interesting and fun way to teach history. The telling of history means nothing if you can't/don't/won't give great thought and attention to the characters and personalities of those that lived it, IMHO. My 14 year old son told me about your video on John Bradmore and the Bradmore screw. I try, as much as is possible today, to know about who and what my children are consuming online. Now we both really enjoy getting the notification of a new episode and watch it together. Cant wait for more! Thankfully you have a really great back catalog of content for us to watch until then. Thanks for what you're doing!!
Very interesting piece again 👏. Many of your subs will know this, but, bizarrely he spent a year residing in Liverpool, apparently in his short time here he became something of a celebrity. He was quite good at sketching and spent hours wandering round the docks recording tide times, the origin of the ships, detailing everything about the Dock system. During the evening he was fond of a few pints as he finished his day's observations. In Liverpool Museum there used to be a display of some of his work. Incredible to think that his harmless hobby contributed to the successful bombing of the docks, most of the city was untouched but there's still areas of bomb damage left as a reminder.
You should definitely make a video about the role of (us)dragons in history! It‘d be really great to see! Besides, great job, you‘re a great teacher and your voice is decent to listen to. I‘m glad I found your Chanel! 🥇
@@marcosaraiva9205 Yeah, tell me about it. There's a quote from a recent interview with a modern day Nazi, it goes something like.... The interviewer said that the 3rd Reich finished May '45 and the Nazi said no, it's only been 70 years, don't forget it's a 1000 year Reich.
Greetings once again from nova Scotia, thank you for another great film, and I think it shows that from the start, Hitler would always escape consequences for anything he set in motion. A coward of the seventh water. Thank you once again for your time and attention to this comment, and be safe, be well. Arthur
Interestingly there are reported to be some early photos of Hitler that were 'doctored' by Goebbels, the propaganda minister. I'm not sure if this is one of them. 👍🏻
Another interesting video Kev, even so early in his life this man was going to be a complete pain in the arse, and literally ‘get away with murder’ keep up the good work.

You should watch a well directed 2 part movie called "Hitler the rise of evil"
It’s one of those things where you sit back and say “If only people knew what they were getting into when they endorsed Hitler”.
Arguably the most misrepresented figure of all time. History is written by the victor.

I might change my major to history from business. I love your platform and "no punches pulled" presentations
Wow never knew this i glad i found this channel i learn every time very cool
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Thanks for sharing. I never really knew that bit of history.
You bet
Adolf had friends in high places, including London???
He certainly had some sympathizers in London
And to think we won WW2😮
Very interesting I find this channel more entertaining then the history channel 😀
Glad to hear it! Thanks very much 👍🏻
I enjoyed this vid more than my pizza here on holiday in India .❤❤❤
😃 Cheers
As I settled in, the video ended. I'd like to get a little extra info on this topic
I'm looking to cover this subject some more as I lecture on it to students in remote areas here in Canada. 👍🏻
Kevin thanks for teaching me something history every day.
You bet 👍🏻
Is that a real nazi uniform in the back? How do you get something like that? I’m fascinated by all things ww2 and would love to get my hands on some authentic stuff.
The way I got hold of it is a long story I might set to video one day. Some of it's real, some is replica, but essentially Soldier of Fortune in North Wales.
@@thehistorysquad that’s cool. I’ve found your videos recently and they are fantastic. Keep it up!
That Hitler fella was a real jerk. Love the vids Kev.
Yep 👍🏻
Apparently, in WWI, Hitler was a message runner, and had earned something of a reputation for courage under fire. He was a soldier's soldier, which garnered him some of his early support. Too bad for him his experiences didn't translate into any kind of strategic talent down the road. ='[.]'=
Hi Ray, a book I can recommend, if you're interested is ... Hitler's First War by Thomas Weber it paints a slightly different story 👍🏻
@@thehistorysquad Huh. I guess you can't believe everything you see on RUclips! Thanks for the heads-up. =~[.]^=
It's fascinating just how deep Nazi propaganda runs deep even to this day.
I really enjoy your chanel every time I watch you presentations I learn things I never new I now your ex military but did you go on to be a history teachers if not society mistout on a good teacher love the chanel I thumbs up every time not what I usually do can't wait till the next video
Cheers Dave. I never was a teacher because I never went to University, but even better, I took my knowledge and skills into schools to deliver freelance history presentations and workshops for over 25 years. It became a full time job and none of the hassle of homework marking, grading and exam time 😉
And a teaser for the next video, part 7 of the Hundred Years War is that it's another sea battle 👍🏻
Great vid!
You are such a mesmerizing storyteller!!!
No question about it!
I like the Briticism , you do (' yeah?!')...as you are talking. 😊
LOL 👍🏻
Thanks again. I wonder if you're familiar with something this reminded me of that I went to see while at school - I forget the name of the play and I'm not sure when exactly I saw it (in London possibly between 1998-2002), but the premise was that Hitler was taken alive in 1945 and put on trial, with the "jury" being we the audience and a proper ballot held as to whether he was personally responsible for the war or not. I won't spoil the endings for anyone, but it was a really good piece of performative history that probably still would work as a teaching tool if it isn't already still running.
Yes, I know of it, but I didn't actually see it myself. 👍🏻
Thank you so much! Very interesting as always. I got this feeling... That any time soon you will be talking about one Vlad Putin.. just saying. Greetings from Costa Rica. I really hope you keep on this wonderful work for many many years to come. My best wishes for you and your beloved ones.
Thanks Christian, I appreciate that 👍🏻
Just subscribed! Love your videos, Sir. I really loved the way you tell your stories and the voice is very relaxing. I listen to your videos until I go to sleep. Please do more WW1-WW2 stories!!! Thank you very much.
That's so nice of you, thank you. There will be more eventually, for sure 👍🏻
This is such an interesting and fun way to teach history. The telling of history means nothing if you can't/don't/won't give great thought and attention to the characters and personalities of those that lived it, IMHO. My 14 year old son told me about your video on John Bradmore and the Bradmore screw. I try, as much as is possible today, to know about who and what my children are consuming online. Now we both really enjoy getting the notification of a new episode and watch it together. Cant wait for more! Thankfully you have a really great back catalog of content for us to watch until then. Thanks for what you're doing!!
How lovely, that's so kind Nick thank you. I hope you and your son continue to enjoy my videos. Best, Kevin 👍🏻
Very interesting piece again 👏.
Many of your subs will know this, but, bizarrely he spent a year residing in Liverpool, apparently in his short time here he became something of a celebrity. He was quite good at sketching and spent hours wandering round the docks recording tide times, the origin of the ships, detailing everything about the Dock system. During the evening he was fond of a few pints as he finished his day's observations. In Liverpool Museum there used to be a display of some of his work. Incredible to think that his harmless hobby contributed to the successful bombing of the docks, most of the city was untouched but there's still areas of bomb damage left as a reminder.
Thanks Philip, I'd hear rumours of this, but I didn't know for sure. 👍🏻
You should definitely make a video about the role of (us)dragons in history! It‘d be really great to see! Besides, great job, you‘re a great teacher and your voice is decent to listen to. I‘m glad I found your Chanel! 🥇
Cheers Nas, welcome aboard 👍🏻
👍🏻
Brilliant, Mr. Hicks!
Thanks again 👍🏻
Love this channel!
Cheers Sid 👍🏻
Let's go for another lesson 👍
Cheers Marco, hope you found it interesting 👍🏻
@@thehistorysquad Very ! I always say that the last page of this period in history is still to be riten.
@@marcosaraiva9205 Yeah, tell me about it. There's a quote from a recent interview with a modern day Nazi, it goes something like.... The interviewer said that the 3rd Reich finished May '45 and the Nazi said no, it's only been 70 years, don't forget it's a 1000 year Reich.
@@thehistorysquad very well put it !
Greetings once again from nova Scotia, thank you for another great film, and I think it shows that from the start, Hitler would always escape consequences for anything he set in motion. A coward of the seventh water. Thank you once again for your time and attention to this comment, and be safe, be well. Arthur
Thank you Arthur 👍🏻
Rosenheimer Street.
Yippee you have reached 50k subs, well deserved for a channel with excellent content and a friendly host.
Thanks Kiwi, isn't it exciting! I'm so glad you've stuck around to enjoy the videos 👍🏻
The photo of him with his friends at 9:10 a little odd to me. It looks like he’s not supposed to be in that photo
Interestingly there are reported to be some early photos of Hitler that were 'doctored' by Goebbels, the propaganda minister. I'm not sure if this is one of them. 👍🏻
@@thehistorysquad Didn't know that! That's a neat detail from history
Another interesting video Kev, even so early in his life this man was going to be a complete pain in the arse, and literally ‘get away with murder’ keep up the good work.
Hi Mick, thanks and yes, you're so right 👍🏻
Another wonderful and informative video. Thanks again Kevin.
Thanks for watching again 👍🏻
Great video as always mister Hicks! Would be interesting to see some videos about the napoleontic era, keep it up!
Noted! They'll be coming along eventually, thanks 👍🏻
