    World War II in Colour was on Netflix for a long time, and it's too bad they took it out of their library. I watched it many, many times and think it is an excellent overview of World War II. It was a springboard for me to learn more about the war.

      there’s a couple other WW2 in color documentaries, but they are not as good as the one you speak of. though I do love WW2 in HD I saw footage on that doc I’d never seen before. The Vietnam War by Ken Burns is spectacular as well, I was engrossed. i had a new respect and empathy for the bravery of the common soldier, and what he was forced to endure.

    *ahem*
    Everybody always gets excited about the Mustang. The P-47 was on scene well before the combat-effective P51-B was, AND the *real* problem was the USAAF "Bomber Mafia" refusing to supply drop tanks to *any* American fighters, '51, '47, or '38, thinking that the Forts' own guns would be sufficient to get them through. Schweinfurt, of course, proved them wrong... and finally somebody got smart and gave Jimmy Doolittle, a genius six ways from Sunday as well as a heck of a pilot in his own right, command of the 8th Air Force.
    Once Doolittle changed the USAAF's priority from destruction of infrastructure to that of logisitical superiority - first, seek out and destroy the Luftwaffe, and second, on the way back from a raid, hit anything that moved, then things got better. By 6 June the Luftwaffe had very little *left* to throw at the Normandy landings, and that which did show its face were summarily dealt with. Of course, blowing up all that infrastructure meant that the Allies had their own logistical problems to deal with... but at least they weren't usually ducking German air raids to do so. Can't say the same for Fritz himself.

    Would love to see a video focusing on the carriers in the pacific. One that introduces every new carrier as they entered pacific waters. All we’ve seen so far is the 4 carriers we had when the war started and how at one point we were down to only one. But then it jumps from there to the 20 or so that attacked Okinawa. What about the in-between? When and where did all the others enter the war?

    The USSR would have collapsed without the Lend-Lease Act and help from Britain (intelligence).
    Loss of food would have sealed the fate of the soviets (unless helped by foreign powers fighting for communism)
    The soviets got enough food from the USA to feed its soldiers for the rest of the war,
    12 million boots , 60 percent aluminum and steel, a lot of tin , 90 percent of railway equipment ( the soviets would never have been able to conduct offensives so fast and transfer their main armies to critical points , 300000 trucks were given , 65 percent of aviation fuel and much more apart from 15 percent tanks ,aircrafts

    AAAAAAND once again Jean Laidlaw, WRNS, and her compatriots get ERASED. Black May (1943) was BEFORE the air gap was closed, and it never would've happened but for these women, and their boss, Captain Gilbert Roberts, who made Max Horton play the war game himself and lose 0-5 to Janet Okell using Laidlaw's tactics. (Also, ASDIC got erased too; this had been around for a couple of decades, and Johnnie Walker his own self put it to decent use... but Laidlaw studied Walker's BUTTERCUP tactics, figured out the fatal assumption - that a sub would attack from outside a convoy rather than sneaking INSIDE at night - and devised RASPBERRY as an initial counter, accounting for the fact that the one way out of the middle of a bunch of hostile ships was *down*, at which point the sub's slower underwater speed would force it aft relative the the convoy centre... and of course, the ladies didn't stop there; they developed several other tactics for use in various conditions.
    It takes *both* tech *and* brains (and a bit of bloody-mindedness) to win a war... and a willingness to let whoever has good ideas run with them and be the person to teach others. No matter what their gender, or colour, or where they came from.
