Even as an American, I believe that the British were a breed of people like no other. Smart, tough and an unconquerable fighting spirit. The British Empire didn't conquer a 1/4 of the world by strength in numbers, but that they were the smartest and the toughest. Greatest nation in the history of the world with the greatest warriors.
True brits know what it means to be british, there is no other nation quit like our england scotland wales and ireland we quarrel amongst ourselves yes but i dont think the united kingdom would be the same if one left, love to all brits jocks and paddys and of course the welsh. thanks for the vid hello gents brought a tear to my eye.
You should be proud of your great grandparents they contributed to the allied victory ....my grandfather fought in North Africa, Italy and at Arnhem 🇬🇧🤝🇮🇳
What tyranny?? I didn't know I was living under N.Korean rules in the UK... hmm strange 🤔, careful I the government see your message you might get publicly executed, because that's what a tyrannical government/dictatorship would do🤫
You can't compare a shit government to a tyranny, because some people are forced to live under dictatorship rules. Compare the life you have to them and you would clearly see how wrong that statement is.
@@arfgrogue5735 I live in Australia. I've seen what the stazi police are doing. Dividing people, asking for 'passports', pepper spraying and beating elderly people. Then I see what the tyrannical oaf Trudolf is letting his stazi do to attack peaceful protesters. If you cannot see how dangerous this is, then you are a blind fool, 'just because some people have to live under dictatorship rules'??? Are you kidding? That is a contradiction in terms! That is not freedom! Before WW2, life was peaceful, without the internet and social media. England was free, so was Canada and Australia! Then Adolf and his gang stuffed everything up! Along with the odious Japanese. Ignorant isn't good enough to describe you. Jacinda Adern is another Hitler, odious, but the people are fighting back! There is no freedom whilst these dictators can bring in emergency powers freeze people's bank accounts, stop people from protesting peacefully. That is what the war generation fought AGAINST!
@@serenityflies1462 Lmfao, Politicians have always and will always be corrupted, that's a factor of life. Are you telling me that if you were in this situation, a leader of a country that you wouldn't turn out the way you're describing?? Because I'd bet my left leg you would be just as bad if you were in a position of power.
I think one of the main reasons why the British military don't feature as much on footage of WW2 is that Celluloid was extremely expensive and heavily rationed!
callout to all ex cadets......we signed that line not because we had to but because we chose to. YES we are the bottom rung of that ladder..but ask yourself this : WHY did you sign that line with no obligation to? THIS IS A RALLY CALL.. ..we stand or we fall. make the choice.
I have had the privilege and honour to know quite well many of this generation, Syd Steele HMS Indefatigable, John Hill HMS Audacious, Ray Smith Z Force, Don MacDonald Royal Engineers, Mr Zowinsky SOE, Dave Mackay Kokoda Track. Everyone of them a humble hard working family man, no BS, no brag, but very sure of themselves and their beliefs. All gone now, how I miss their conversation, stories and strength, I am glad they are gone though as they would all be truly disgusted with todays woke, self centred world. Service, country, pride and even horror of horrors loyalty to their monarch, quiet integrity were all their strongest traits. Where are these people today, they just don’t appear to be there anymore. I guess and hope they are there in numbers and the occasion will bring forth the generation, but the youth of today seem to hide it pretty well beneath their make up, and indolence if they are there.
Five Uncles lost. I wonder what for. If today is to go by. People kick earth in there face. Those are the real scum bags. RIP to ALL the Commonwealth troops who fought.
Yeah countries like india was “third world” in 1800s even the term itself is a Cold War era one ,perhaps you should study history and get outta your bubble world.
No but some Army regiments recruiting in Wales or Scotland and wear the appropriate cap badge. Corps such as the Royal Military Police recruit from the whole country and nothing is worn to show what country you are from because it's the British Army.
Darick ! . Yes, 2 yrs late, but as they say, better late than never. Oh, and if you're going to leave comments at least have the decency to spell Britain correctly.
@@darickdencel Darick, I'm offering an olive branch. I absolutely mean no disrespect to the Americans, there were 2 squadrons of American pilots who fought in the Battle of Britain, God bless them. I hate the segregation that GI'S brought with them, but at the end of the day the Nazis and Japan had to be defeated. It could not have been achieved without EVERYONE in the free world fighting together. I wish you and your family the very best for 2022, God bless each and every one of you, I hate falling out with people. We need more love and compassion in the world! It would be wonderful to hear from you, but if not, take care, love from Australia. We emigrated here in the eighties btw! Please have a joyous and happy life, believe in God, and you'll be more than fine! xxx👍👍👍💖💗💞💟
@@melbeasley9762 yes , but they were a tyrannical monster too. The brits were happy to let the Nazis and commies knock the shit out of each other. Don’t forget they both invade poor Poland and raped and pillaged.
@@trimaxionerror5696 I don't deny what the Soviets were, I stood opposite them in Germany during the cold war but look to today. Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Austria and Germany are now all tyranical governments, full on Communist and about to bring in the Chinese social credit sustem to control every aspect of peoples lives. The majority of the people allowed the tyranny in by obeying every little covid rule making it easy for the Commies to take over. Poland is one of the few now resisting the Commie take over within the EU.
@@melbeasley9762 I don't know if that's entirely accurate because if Britain would have lost some of the crucial battles of 1940 and surrendered the Soviets would have been up sh*t creek when they were invaded by the Germans in 1941
Quite right the Brits/Canadians fought against the greatest concentration of SS Divisions since the Battle of Kursk. If GB had been overwhelmed, which was extremely unlikely given the strength of the Royal Navy and Air Forces, German may have become the first language of the USA. t
As for the Far East, the British/Indian army killed 30,000 Japanese at the Battle of Rangoon by far the largest defeat inflicted on the Nation of the Rising Son.
Stupid song to play over these clips. The music is sung by a modern American woman. The soldiers are WW2 British. Incongruent in every way. The footage is great though.
