    About time the “Bloody 100th” got some recognition.
    Of course can’t compare with “Twelve O’Clock High” and “Memphis Belle” but I prefer this over that opening scene in “Red Tails”.

      Far superior special effects these days,, memphis belle and its weak historical story,,very bad dialog, only saved by the aircraft,,twelve oclock high was great for the story and cast,,my father 48 missions,,,radio op,,

    This generally looks good, although this doesn't show formation course and altitude changes to avoid flak.

    Why not at night.... like the RAF and their Lancasters.. ?? What was the reason to fly the mission at daylight ? RAF used pathfinders so the bombers could find the target at night..
    My grandfather living near the dutch coast once said... you could hear te engines from the bombers before you could see them.. within seconds the sky was filled with the bombers.

      US bomber doctrine wanted daytime ‘precision’ bombing to aim for specific targets compared to British carpet bombing which aimed for a rough area.

    shameful display of indiscipline and incompetence.
    A Bail out alarm is sounded and the crew asked
    whats that, do you mean bail out?
    They bring shame to their entire family.

    No crew member is going to call out flak locations. The only flak that matters is dead ahead, and the pilots can see that.

    • @derrickj45
      @derrickj45 7 месяцев назад +11

      Actually, the crews did call out flak locations, so...🤷🏾

    • @skysamurai8268
      @skysamurai8268 7 месяцев назад +13

      @@derrickj45yeah they did. The formations would be slightly above or below eachother to avoid midair collisions. So calling flak locations was used to make other flights on the same mission aware of where flak was bursting in the air. Ignore that guy man, he’s obviously not clued on with the subject or just looking for a reaction.

      Wrong.
      Flak expands in all directions.

    typical hollywood, germans saying "fire" in english rather then german

    • @cleverusername9369
      @cleverusername9369 7 месяцев назад +9

      I'm gonna assume you're American and don't speak German:
      The German word for "fire" is "feuer", which sounds almost IDENTICAL to the English pronunciation of fire. Hollywood got it right.
      Source: I'm German
      You know a lot of English words come from German, right? What other word would you have had them use? Feuer means fire and sounds like fire, so... what exactly are you complaining about?

      Hello, William!
      I'm Portuguese, but yes, the times I heard the pronuntiation of the german word "feuer", it really sounds very close to the english word "fire".
      First time I heard it was when I was a kid, I had a german friend who would spend vacations near our house (his grandparents were portuguese), and we always laughed when he said the word "lighter" (feuerzeug, or something like that..), it sounds powerfuly weird funny for portuguese hears. And that's how he also explained us the word feur (among others, ofc).
      Curiously, because of this story, feuer is one of the very few german words I know. 😅
