This channel is amazing, no false colouration, no added sound effects, just original footage. Whilst some of it is obviously from propaganda films, it doesn't detract in any way from the content. Thank you.
@1:41 Finnish ship "SS Herakles" which was built in Scotland in 1910 and during the second world war it sailed mostly on the Baltic sea. It gained local notoriety in 1946, when it brought first batch of coffee from Brazil to Finland after the long years almost completely without coffee.
Awesome footage as usual. Love the shot of the two He 60's taking off together. Pure propaganda shot, but really nice flying. The shots of the He 59 overflying the ships, and then landing to inspect their papers, was really interesting. Knew these aircraft were used for reconnaissance, and for air-sea rescue, but never realised that they landed, to check the ships papers. Learn something new every day from this channel! Great stuff!

I’m so glad I found this fantastic channel. The footage is always great with a wide variety of topics covered.
@@DenisR1973 I am seeing a vision of Green Fritz loading his mag on a previous stop, tripping getting off the ladder, and letting a burst of 9mm into the side of the ship that got him reamed up one side and down the other...But they were short-handed and couldn't just leave him the next time.
The headline says North sea but based on the Danish, Swedish ships and not least the wreck of Algol, I would assume this is taken in Kattegat or the South Baltic sea (Østersøen) between Denmark, Sweden and Germany
Called a ram air turbine. Many modern aircraft have them, but they are typically retractable and only deployed in exceptional circumstances. Me-163 and SM. 79 have them featured quite prominently.
Yes, I looked it up: The tanker Algol of Trelleborg, which was mined between Falsterbo lighthouse and Falsterborev on December 13, 1939. The crew was rescued. After a couple of accidents with strandings of the wreck, salvage began in the summer of 1940. The two halves of the hull were salvaged after many difficulties and brought to Kockums shipyard where it was reassembled and returned to service in May 1941. Under the name Soya VII she passed into German ownership soon after. After the war she was handed over to the British and was first named Empire Tigaven and later renamed Peter M.
Granted a different time but even with armed personal you see one of them carrying an unloaded firearm, clearly they weren't expecting a fight and looks to be business as usual for inspections
Merchie skippers had to sweating a bit. If anything went truly bad in the inspection, the watching floatplanes would probably whistle up some Stukas inside an hour or two.
@@MM22966 maybe, maybe not. He 59 had an internal bomb bay that cold also be used for more fuel tanks. its more likely than not that it did not have bombs on this occasion...but one never knows....and civilian skippers almost certainly wouldnt know much about it.

And again brilliant footage! The badge of the He 59 S4+VL shows the skull of a ram (Widderschädel), which was the marking of 3./Kü.Fl.Gr 506.

2:40 Dude brought two potato-mashers on a friendly boarding inspection. Somebody is green and way too high-speed.
Exactly, because nothing ever happens unexpectedly during war!
It's always predictable, is that why they say "war never changes"? Lol
Dude brought two potato-mashers but his MP is without a magazine attached :))

Great video. The chap with the two hand grenades in his belt looks to be carrying a Bergmann MP18 without a magazine in it.
Steyr-Solothurn S1-100 MP 34.
In the MP 18 the magazine receiver is more straight.
That is an MP34.
0:40 Somebody showing off for the camera.
Thanks for this and new to me 👍
Danish ship 🛶😃📰🚢- Swedish ship 😠🌂🔥🛳
Piece of cake in such calm seas. Would require an actual boat in bigger waves.
And I thought our coasties were harsh.
Damn cool.

1:12 There is a small propeller under the port side engine of the He 59.
Power generator for radios.

he 59s could carry bombs or a torpedo
@@daiichidoku I wondered. I did not see any of the birds in this film loaded.
