- NATO build this bridge.
Secret service, military engineering and more..
Read more here!
It's an important backbone of any army to be able to construct what you need to meet your logistic needs!
In my country, there is a lot of water, and you might find yourself stuck on the other side of a river fast if you think of invading..
The "101 Genie battalion" in my country is able to build bridges, anywhere in the world, even in hostile conditions! Next to bridges, think of other military infrastructure, like roads, fencing, water supplies etc.
My interest for this brigade and the work they do gave me the idea to make this video, i think it's a good moment to test this new camera i have, since it's close to my city.

* SECRET SERCICE! *
in 1945 the allied forces agreed with each other that in the future they should be better informed and a secret service was called into life named "Stay Behind" sometimes called Gladio, that was how a similar (and connected) organisation in Italy was called.
In 1991 a government official (former minister president Lubbers) said a little bit to much about it, and misspoke himself, and the service was cancelled right after.
The remains however you can still find in "Fort Altena" this is where the metal bridge segments to a "Bailey Bridge" where stored.., in secret!
(since it was stored there i felt the need to add this part of the story)
* NATO BRIDGE aka BAILEY BRIDGE *
A Bailey bridge is named after Sir Donald Coleman Bailey.
Sir Donald Coleman Bailey (15 September 1901 - 5 May 1985) was an English civil engineer who invented the Bailey bridge.
Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery is recorded as saying that:
"without the Bailey bridge, we should not have won the war." and in 1947 he wrote: "Bailey Bridging made an immense contribution towards ending World War II"
Sir Bailey was awarded with the English:
- Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE, 4 January 1943)
- Knighthood (1 January 1946)
and Dutch:
- Knight's Cross of the Order of Orange-Nassau: Commander. (1 January 1948)
So the decision to build a bridge on the location we visit today, was made by NATO., so troop movement was made possible in this area, but after the war, the country and this area also developed, and a freeway and bridge was build, not long after.
A "Bailey Bridge" was a bridge commonly build by engineers from the allied forces back in those days, however, in my country, this is the one and only!
The pillars where build, so that if an army would invade, a bridge could be build fast, and retreat was made possible, with manpower! you can't put cranes up in a swamp/floodplain like area like this., the metal part and the actual bridge that rested on the pillars, was transported and build on the land, and rolled over the pillars by military service members, 300 meters by hand! An amazing feature! Two pillars are placed 24 meter and 40 Cm from each other, since 1 Bailey segment is 3,05 meters, witch equals to 10 feet.
8 of these 10 feet (or 3.05 meters) segments where constructed for a total length of 24.40 meters and this times 12! for the total span of 300 meters.
A great innovative way for that time, to cross these floodplains/swamp like areas with heavy vehicles like tanks etc.

i did shoot another video recently, this was however on the device i recorded last.. 4? i think it was 4, videos with, and the quality has been a bother to me, and you, since the first recording.., and i have searched hard for solutions, and i have ordered a new Pixel 8, and that should take care of that! In addition to that, i bought a wireless mic, so the sound level of my voice is not changing anymore, and should also reduce sounds like roads in the background, and wind.
With all that, i hope you have a great day, please enjoy the video.

East Germany was NEVER a part of The Soviet Union .
The eastern part of Germany was, after the second world war, divided in occupation zones, between Britain, France, US and the Soviet Union.
The Eastern part was OCCUPIED by the Soviets until 1889, when the Berlin Wall fell - Now the Eastern Part of Germany is a full integrated part of the Federal republik of Germany.
i guess we use different words to describe the same thing., it might not have been one of the countries actually part of the Soviet Union, but was controlled by, yes, like we both mention, there was the actual Berlin wall, and the rest of the Iron Curtain, that divided the eastern part of the world with west, is what i said in my video, and troops controlling that where Soviet troops. That would have been the correct formulation of this fact, thanks for correcting me, and watching the video 🙂
So it might be my English, as i am a native Dutch speaker, but when we talked about the Soviet Union of this era, for us, neighbouring country of Germany, "The East" started in Eastern Germany, as the wall was there, sorry for the confusion.

@@34outdoor I'm Danish, and therefore speaking Danish :
It was the formulation "being a part of the Soviet Union" that confused me. I.e : To claim, that Bavaria was a part of US, or Hamburg a part of Britain, would be just as distorted, like our two countries, both occupied by then Germans during WW2, was not "a part of Germany" during those damned Years.
I can easily understand and accept your post regarding the division of Europe into east and west after WW2.
Best Wishes from Denmark
@@bentmelholtandersen7057 i have pinned these comments as it is a crucial part of the info i tried to get across in my video, for anyone else who might be confused by how i did that. ATB from The Netherlands 🖖🙂
That's pretty cool to have that Kingfisher on the fishing pole😁
You should go back with a bag and collect those empty cans and bottles. Grab the bag that was half buried too😀
Yeah my buddy was so lucky it decided to land there!
i sometimes do this, i always bring a trash bag with me, and every day, i pick up at least something, as a form of gratitude for allowing me on this planet ;)
For underneath a bridge i think it looked decent right? But it gave me an idea! Something to organise in the near future so thanks :)
Thanks for making an effort to always make a comment to Age, this does not go unnoticed (on my small channel) so much appreciated!
🖖😎
Gorgeous trail, keep them coming dude!
No worries i will!
Thanks for watching and your comment!

Mooie wandelroute, prachtig om te zien hoe alles in bloei staat. Het stukje bij de springbalsemien, woww zo mooi 😍
Was een leuke route inderdaad, en nog wat geleerd ook :)
Het staat er meters hoog, sommige stukken roken zo lekker!
Bedankt voor het kijken Dandelion

Does anyone ever think that the Russian Federation would ever allow the Americans to waltz across Europe with their US contingent of a NATO military force that would be used to fight against them in WWIII? American equipment---including any bridges GNATO builds-- would be reduced to scrap by Iskander missiles to prevent any logistical movements eastward.
First of all i like to thank you for watching and your comment.
This video was about history however., and Iskander missiles where not around yet in 1958 ;)
i admit, the title is kind of click bait ;)
Iskander you say, but how about the Avangard missiles? they have 6.000Km range. Iskander squad would have to come within 500Km range first.., so that would be my guess ;)
To answer your question, personally i think when i look at the action from a few days ago near Ukrainka (Zaporozye region) how one! precision Iskander strike took out an arriving train filled with military material.. So no i don't think Russia would allow this, but before that happens.., this world, or EU at least, will be unrecognisable already i'm afraid.
🖖😎
PS, did you see how (military logistics) bridges are built these days? i might make a little video about that to :)
