Airborne Logistics:
1. If it's not nailed down, it's mine
2. If I could pry it up, you failed to effectively nail it down!
The Nazi’s had nothing on Imperial Japan. Between 10-30 million Chinese in WWII
To be fair with Eisenhower, his opinion of airborne, evidently, changed before the end of the war. There are pictures of him wearing 101st airborne patch on the shoulder of his uniform.
Fun Fact, if you have seen "We were Soldiers" when they are playing Baseball on the base, when we first see Too Tall, the patch he is wearing is of the 11th Airborne.
Curious why America doing the same thing is racism but Japan doing it isn't. The only reason people died on American camps was medical issues like tuberculosus. Not being starved and tortured. Please explain your reasoning.
It's called white/Western brainwashing...
It also made sense for the USA to do it, since they didn't know who might have been spies, or who would act against the USA for Japan.
Yes, it was messed up, but at least it made sense. Germany and Japan tended to use their camps for entirely different, often waaay worse reasons.
I think its just a modern soft thinking that reduces things down to 'racism'.
It is one of our great historical embarassments as a nation but too many people want to treat it as similar to the Germans. It never should've happened and one of many examples of how fear can make people compromise their principles but the internment camps weren't concentration camps. It wasn't Auschwitz.
@@PiousSlayerI agree that Germany and Japan were way worse and all but a lot of it was definitely racism(and yes, I'd agree the Japanese were racist too.) Americans who had been citizens for generations were thrown into internment camps purely because the government didn't trust their loyalty based on their heritage. That is racism, any way you slice it.
Also, there were Japanese-American soldiers in the US military. They worked in the Pacific theater as interpreters and in Intelligence. One of the most decorated combat units in the European theater was the 442nd which was made up of Japanese-American soldiers many of which had family in the internment camps. At first, the camps were a precaution against possible spies and saboteurs. They eventually became for the protection of the internees from racism of others that might do them harm simply because they were of Japanese descent.
Fun fact. Rod Serling, creator and lead writer of the Twilight Zone was an Angel.
As for "War Crimes": The Japanese never signed the "War Crimes" part of the Geneva Convention. And , regardless of what the Republic of the Philippines might have signed, Filipino guerrillas certainly never signed any such a thing. On top of that, add two things: 1) Most of the Japanese troops weren't innocent. The Japanese had been assholes and a half (to put it mildly) the prior 3 years when they ruled, and expecting mercy from people whos brothers, sisters mothers, fathers might have been raped, tortured or killed (or all 3) by the Japanese was probably expecting too much. 2) The guerrillas almost certainly didn't have the food or permanent accommodations for many prisoners. Thanks to us they had enough for themselves, but they carried most of their supplies with them. Hence unless a prisoner could be useful as a guide or possessed important information, they really coudn't afford to take prisoners.
Did you notice how skinny the arms were on the three singers at the end?
Darlin you are decades behind in the whole “Don’t change the standards thing.” They’ve been quotas since the early 1980’s and both mental and physical examinations were “modified” for people who cannot really do the job at all, much less best qualified.
90 seconds in “you have to do a shot for sheer badassery.” Oh, she is gonna get hammered today.
This is my saying “ I’ve upped my standers, so up yours “ 😂
The internment of Japanese-Americans in WW2 had its roots in WW1, where there were many issues between the public at large and German immigrants and their families. There was frequent sabotage but there was also innocent (or at least neutral German-Americans being assaulted or being treated poorly (tarred-and-feathered). When WW2 began, the government wanted to avoid similar issues.
It may just be me, but Nick sounds great (Fat Electrician) but you were very hard to hear. Would love to have been able to hear more of your comments, but either my speakers are terrible or your Mic volume was about 1/2 of what it should have been.
Japanese get overlooked when it comes to their atrocities during WW2. They did horrible things, even cannibalism of POWs. Yes cannibalism!! American troops were eaten. And as far as the marine guys, you know.
It takes that kind of mentality to win wars.
I like your scissors. Where did you get them?
I am of the opinion that you can’t convict anyone for a war crime if you don’t have any person to testify against them and they didn’t have any survivors to testify against them. I love it when you do a fat electrician video his sense of humor and yours combined makes a great video
Please add TFE or full thing to your titles. I almost passed.
I love to see you reacting to Nick. I would love for you to react to his video on Richard Bong
Life got in the way a bit, but it IS the next FE video I'll be posting.
February 42 so just a few months after this America opened the first internment camp for Japanese citizens.
I'm an obsessive history nerd and I love watching you absorb and really burn thru nics channel. There's one Warographics and Biographics you could check out on your own time.
