My father was a British MP at Dunkirk, unable to leave the beach until 'every man for himself' was declared.
Thank you for sharing these. I just subbed to your channel. Cheers!!
I USED TO WATCH THIS ON AMERICAN HEROES CHANNEL! THANKS FOR SHARING IT!
Let's not forget that an large part of the BEF was able to leave Dunkirk because of fierce fighting and resistance of the French army especially in the pocket of Lille :
« These Frenchmen, under the gallant leadership of general Molinié, had for four critical days contained no less than seven German divisions which otherwise could have joined in the assaults on the Dunkirk perimeter. This was a splendid contribution to the escape of their more fortunate comrades of the BEF » - Winston Churchill, The Second World War. vol. II. Their Finest Hour, Cassel & Co., 1949, p. 86
The pocket of Dunkirk equally played an important role. Once again, French soldiers defended valiantly Dunkirk and outskirts. Between 35000 to 40000 French soldiers were captured on the 4th of June when the Germans entered the city.
On the other hand certain British regiments were ordered to stay behind and fight to the last bullet and then surrender. This enabled thousands of the BEF to reach Dunkirk and evacuate.
One cannot change history and it would be unfair to say that the French army did not pay an important role in allowing the BEF to evacuate from Dunkirk.
This is just a question of opinion...
Can we get this series in a playlist? Can't seem to find it.
It took two years to reequip from the material losses at Dunkirk.
They left enough equipment for ten divisions over there
If they only knew.
Tf?
@@Andy_Babb We fought the wrong enemy.
@@MarkHarrison733 you lost me. Say what you’re tying to say man lol
@@Andy_Babb Look at England now.
@@MarkHarrison733 Bro, idk what tf you’re talking about. What about it??
Whasn't that woman a guy, previus?
seems likely. why do you ask?
I think you are absolutely correct, the mannerisms and voice patterns are far, far, too similar to the 'guy' that used to work for Royal Military College or similar organisation ?
Google her name and you'll find out.
Yes
yer noticed its attempt at changing models before its date expires
Adds infestation here..no add blocker don't bother...
Incompetent clueless leader to light the way
Who do they get to write these things? 'Wehrmacht' refers to the German armed forces; 'heer' is the army. And how outrageous to say they marched into Poland 'unopposed'.
The Bankers did it. 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
She is he 😂
Brave British soldiers heroically escaping from the rampaging Germans.
Brave? They cowardly retreated with no engagement from the battle of france leaving the french from start to take the blunt and then to evacuate they asked the french army to protect them promising to evacuate them and then leaving most of them behind
@@user-mg3xr9tz7m Exactly.
What rubbish!@@user-mg3xr9tz7m
@@user-mg3xr9tz7m No they didn't you absolute fool
User your talking bs, we helped evacuate thousands of French. Your obviously a sado troll or a Brit hater.
Why you gotta have the man dressed lie a woman, sheesh I used tolike this show..
14:03 What is that!?
They NEED to be charged with human rights violations!!! So SICK of people DEMANDING tolerance from others when they themselves are so INtolerant!!!
And we Brits handed the Poles to the Soviets, so may as well have not bothered!
The Soviets had control of Poland. Short of war there was nothing to be done about it.
@@CB-fz3li Agree, but the way the Poles were treated post WW2 by the UK was appalling.
@@johnbobson1557 The non invite to the victory parade was an unfortunate decision. I wouldn't characterise their treatment as appalling though. All Poles were allowed to stay in the UK after the war and were granted British citizenship.
No help was given to poland
In spite of treaty
The french did nothing after
Declaring war as neither did
Britain... chamberlain never
Sent bef to poland before
Declaring war!
Brits basically ruined the world lol
Stopped watching after 5 mins , when i saw that german historian
Jesus christ. Are you a baby or an adult? You need to grow up, cupcake.
Dunkerque, where the French saved the British army !!
Shame the French couldn’t defend there own country
TWICE
@@philipmadhatter4006 Well, the French couldn't defend their country anymore because of the gaps left in the defense after the departure of the British, plus the surrender of Belgium. You might have been told that the French and the Belgians let you down. But they didn't. They were preparing a counter attack which couldn't happen because of the departure of the British. I have always thought that the British soldier was a gentleman wearing a helmet instead of a bowler hat.
@@phlm9038 why did they need the British army to help ? They should of been more than capable on their own
@@philipmadhatter4006 The UK declared war on Germany after this latter invaded Poland. The UK declared war on Germany FIRST, after having made sure that the French would do the same. The UK wanted war with Germany, I think so far we can agree. The UK decided to declare war on Germany, nobody forced them. The UK didn't want this war to take place on British soil, did they ? They wanted the war on French soil, and on Belgium soil when the Germans violated Belgium's neutrality. The only way to be allowed to fight on French soil was to get them involved. Plus this is what countries do when they have an alliance. There was a very simple way to avoid the war in 1919, at least in western Europe : allow France to permanently occupy the Rhineland in order to prevent another invasion. But what is done is done, or maybe I should say in that matter what was not done was not done.
@@philipmadhatter4006yeah because the Brits cowardly retreated with no engagement from the battle of france and then promised the french to take those french divisions with them but left them behind.
You might do Hollywood movies to hide the truth but its out there and you cannot destroy it like you try to do every year with your archives about your colonial genocides
