My great grandfather was there, as a cook. When Germans invaded Latvia they made many Latvians join their army, my great grandfather worked at a bakery so they made him a cook in the army, for the soldiers on the front lines. He followed the army all the way to the Battle of Moscow, and was pushed back all the way to Battle of Berlin. When the Germans surrendered he would have faced the gulag or execution as Latvia was under Soviet occupation, however when Russia had previously invaded Latvia a year before the Germans, they gave Latvians soviet passports. My great grandfather had hidden his soviet passport sown into his trousers for the whole war, so at this point when he was arrested he got his passport out and claimed to be a soviet citizen who had been captured by the Germans, and they let him go, so he managed to walk back to Latvia a free man.
damn your grandpa was realy lucky ....even those who were citizents or soldieres of the soviets were often put in gulags because they were seen as traitors for working for the germans even though they had no other way

The soviet were known for winning the war in Germany, they are not known for having any good military tactics, their tactics was to send in wave after wave of men, until the Nazis run out of ammo, that's how they won WW2, surround the city, or village then send in solders to the slaughterer.
My grandfather lost three brothers in this war, and one of them died in the Battle of Berlin. His mother, wife and one daughter (he had two daughters) died of starvation in Leningrad during the siege. My mother was left alone, and she was sent to an orphanage, after the war in 1946, my grandfather found my mother and took her away. This war has brought a lot of grief to all people. I hope people will stop fighting someday...
It wasn't war only for two armies. Did you know smth about american and british armies in Normandy, Libya, Italy and other locations? It was a war for USA and Japan, China and Japan too. Many other countries were involved in this mess. That's why the war was global.

Totally agree. My grandmother was born in 1937 and she remembers how her father went to the front, how he sent the last letter home: "I'm going into battle on crutches, don't wait at home." He died near Feodosia in Crimea in 1942. Also she remembers the terrible battle near her village (Tsimlyansk) and bombing. An aerial bomb fell not far from her and exploded, she was saved by the house. And especially she remembered the occupation. When I listened to her I couldn't believe that it was all happening.
My late grandmother was also there in 1945, along with my father who was aged 4. They lived in Seeburger Strasse, Spandau. My grandfather was killed during the battle of the Kerch Peninsula in Crimea. She moved to England after the war and married a British soldier after working as a translator for the British forces.
My grandma grew up during this time. She once gave me a good insight into how people thought back then: "if your neighbor was killed by a bomb, you were just glad it wasn't you, and you kept living."

My grandfather was a WW2 vet and he once said this. He said every war movie he ever saw or video of war he ever saw .

Yes, and Hollywood itself invented the "American Dream" that Never really existed either but did orchestrate the "Nightmare" the Western World is now experiencing unfortunately.
My grandfather was a US Army captain in World War II (36th Infantry Division) He often made the same comments about background music in movies - and how it really was...
My great Grandfather faught in the Wehrmacht. He started since 1941 but he doesn't like talking about Berlin and the other cities he went to years before. But he told me a story on his time on Berlin before German surrender. He was hiding up in a building after being separated by two blocks at least. He could see his "Friends." Down of to the block but the Russians already stormed the street. (This was all at night of course.) He knew they would searching buildings for people and all that's why he tossed a grenade on the 4th floor staircase so the Russians wouldn't get him. All he had with him was his gun (MP40) and his knife. (At least that's what he told me.) Anyways, he spent half the night hiding in a room getting sleep, and the other half, looking out the window. This all happened for a few days too. He was simply to afraid to leave his room. Edit (October 8th 2022): He also fought in the west before being shipped east (again). My family has a lot of people in this war, both close related and distant. We had Italian partisans in 1943 who once fight allies. My great cousin was in the US Navy I think as well. Most of my American side family where mostly field hospital people. (English is bad.) My great grandmother had a half sister who was a nurse in Finland durring the winter war of 39. And I know we had family that fought in the Soviet union in the later part of the war but I can't recall their roles. But my great grandfather is still proud of his history. He always tells me that you can't let others ruin what things mean to you. But I know deep down he feels a bit bad for Germany's role as an aggressor. To this day, he still hangs out with someone from the armi. I think they still shoot guns too. He's old, but being 102 doesn't stop him from having a hobby !
@@Sillu a lotta people on my grandads side was in the war. All on different fronts, different specifics like the Luftwaffe, and the Kriegsmarine. Though not as exciting as the one you see now.
Mr. Valkorion was it his once owned house in Berlin? Or was it just some random house? Also was he the only one there or did he have a couple other people?
@@Moonlight.Deadite It was just a random building from what he told me. And he said that there was a few other people with him but they too got separated.
I know from my uncle (a soldier 17 years old) that in the past few days the German soldiers in Berlin have only fought not to be caught by the Russians and brought to Siberia. It was a fight for their own lives and no longer for stupid Nazis from which they were abused and betrayed. He said in this last days of war it was no longer a fight Wehrmacht against Red Army, It was a fight that everyone alone or in little groups had to fight against the Red Army to survive. My uncle and 3 other comrades pulled himself in 2 weeks out of Berlin through the subway tunnels and canals and flee at nights through Russian-occupied territory to river Elbe. He swam to the western side and surrender himself to the British and was after 6 weeks POW camp dismiss and was at home near Kiel. Many of his comrades were caught by the Russians and didn't come home until 5 years later, but most came never back. 80 percent of his old comrades died or murdered in Siberian gulags.
I don't think he died. If was hit by that 57mm cannon he would't fall to the ground, but his body would be destroyed while taking off. I think he was pushed by the gas coming from the muzzle brake. You know that feeling when some one fires a revolver next to you but its a 57mm AT cannon.
I really like the audio to this and the timing i have seen alot of footage from the world wars and generally the music downplays the severity of these situations and i think you did a great job putting this together!
1:00 The guy on the gun nearly blew the entire group to hell. Must have been in quite the hurry...on a different note, the fellow at 2:16 looks like he was one hard SOB.
Aside from the amazing footage, the music to this video is epic and captures fear, hope, determination, survival and just sheer courage to overcome any obstacle.
This is effin' real war, people slaughtering each other for no good reason. It's not a sports event, so your lofty motivational gibberish is totally out of place here!
Well at that point it wasn’t about fight for your country, it was about fighting to survive. The Red Army was coming to Berlin with the intent to kill, not to liberate. It was do or die for every German citizen.
My father was master of supply in the army in Kuwait in 1992, I can't ever imagine what it was like to arm men that you knew you may never see again. May all the soldiers finally rest and know peace.
That was Hitler's last moment in front of a cam, he wish the kids good luck and give them medails for fighting and say, that the boys have fight to the end.
I have a bit of reflection when I see this videos from ww2, because while they were fighting in Europe my grandparents were chilling just going to school
@Buttrape Bill Are you dumb He passed, and fell due to the shock wave from the shot. It’s like a push, no more. Since the VET fired, this had to be done immediately.
@Buttrape Bill You better compare the Americans, who in less than a year killed more than 500 thousand of their soldiers on the Western front, given the fact that Germany in 1944 could not even resist adequately.
@Lord Farquaad You are really stupid. 80% of all Axis troops were located on the eastern front, their elite were there, and as a result of the war we lost even less than the Axis. And the United States, with an adversary who could no longer defend normally in the west, because all the troops were in the east, managed to lose 500 thousand soldiers. The USSR in 2 months in Japan has done more than the USA in 4 years. The United States and the next 50 years subjected hundreds of thousands of its soldiers as a result of nuclear tests, I hope you do not need to talk about this. My point is that you are an idiot who is trying to use idiot's arguments in discussions.
Imagine being a German soldier in that moment. You are surrounded, you know you will probably die at some point, you know war is over but you are fighting anyway because you must.
Imagine how a simple Soviet resident felt when the enemy horde, calling him unworthy to be considered a human, burned his house, deprived him of his homeland, and deprived him of his family. How did the mother feel who sent 11 sons to the front and received one funeral after another? How did the hero Matrosov feel when he rushed at an enemy machine gun to cover it with his body? How did the defenseless girl Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya feel when the Germans tortured her and hung her for everyone to see? How did my great-grandfather feel when he crawled out from under fire with his machine gun with a shot in his leg? For the most part, Russians, especially those whose relatives went to this terrible war, do not feel compassion for the fascist nits
they fogught in Berlin and from Poland to stop the advantage of soviet troops also to save german civilians to getting killed and mass raped! soviet troops rape child to older woman thats why! nothing else, the war was over since stalingrad.
I live in Berlin and think about all this whenever I see one of the typical large pavement stones in Berlin that is damaged by a mortar grenade or whenever I see one of the many facades riddled with bullet and shrapnel holes.
I dont think actual battlefield footage should be dramatized with epic music...I get that music makes the visual experience more immersive, but to me it seems like it just reduces an entire worlds ungodly suffering to an entertainment piece 🙃

@@byCheytac how to survive ww2 for German soldier. 1. Run the fuck away from the Russians as far and as fast as you can. 2. Surrender to the Western allies 3. Profit
If you asked how I felt about it. It must have been frightening to have to fight an impossible battle, knowing that you are just fighting to survive at that time, you could be brave and try to hold your own, you could try to hide, dessert or be fanatical about your hopeless ideals, some wanted nothing more than revenge for their lost family, homes, comrades, other's believed in the false ideals of a Nazi Germany, many were scared and confused, the worst was being a civilian caught up in the action during the red armies march into Germany especially if you was female. History is most definitely written by the victor's but it's also covered in a dark veil of secrets and atrocities, I suppose in that regard you could argue that the Germans deserved it for their atrocities, but not every German was a monster, on the other hand, not every Russian was a monster either, In war there are no winners or losers, no heroes or villains, only the old and bitter as well as the young and stupid, it doesn't determine who's right or wrong, only who survived & who's left, war is hell and you'd be thankful that we don't have to face such troubling time's, it hurts many and the tragic memories never heal quickly. Don't take for granted what other's have sacrificed both Allie's and Axis. Not everyone was good obviously but not every one was bad on both sides. They fought so other's could live.
I wouldn't even say history is written by the victors because it's not written by a single entity. It's only true that they don't have to pay for war crimes while the losers do-- had Germany and Japan won (thank God they didn't), they'd host their own Nuremberg trials, though the Allied crimes in general wouldn't rack up as high unless you're counting Red Army offensives or NKVD atrocities
The Germans fought to the end because they knew that they would probably die in Russian captivity if they surrendered, also partly because some still believed in the Nazi ideals, but many knew the war was lost but kept fighting because fear of Russian capture drove them on. They would rather go down fighting or surrender to the Americans and British.
@@charles5895 They were also probably fearful that the USSR was going to annihilate them completely to the point of extinction as well, would most definitely be terrifying

"Dimitri Petrenko was a hero, he deserved a hero's death, instead of giving his life for the motherland he died for nothing like an animal, he should have died in Berlin"

My grandfather was there. Hell on wheels brigade Pattons army. I was in the army in the 80,s, i found it strange to see the tank track marks in the curbs of the cities, bullet holes at the wall. We watched the fall of the Berlin wall too. This war must have been pure hell.

My grandfather had a lot of respect for the German and especially the SS division in WW2, he said the SS where very well trained and organised in the field he told me they where on of the greatest armies to ever walk the earth even as an enemy he respected good soldiering. It was their leadership and ideology that destroyed them. Just like US foreign policy today, but the yanks can't recognise it yet even though there forever wars has caused more regime change than WW2 and counting!

All he had with him was his gun (MP40) and his knife. (At least that's what he told me.) Anyways, he spent half the night hiding in a room getting sleep, and the other half, looking out the window. This all happened for a few days too. He was simply to afraid to leave his room.
Edit (October 8th 2022): He also fought in the west before being shipped east (again). My family has a lot of people in this war, both close related and distant. We had Italian partisans in 1943 who once fight allies. My great cousin was in the US Navy I think as well. Most of my American side family where mostly field hospital people. (English is bad.) My great grandmother had a half sister who was a nurse in Finland durring the winter war of 39. And I know we had family that fought in the Soviet union in the later part of the war but I can't recall their roles.
But my great grandfather is still proud of his history. He always tells me that you can't let others ruin what things mean to you. But I know deep down he feels a bit bad for Germany's role as an aggressor. To this day, he still hangs out with someone from the armi. I think they still shoot guns too. He's old, but being 102 doesn't stop him from having a hobby !
That's a great story, thanks for sharing
@@Sillu a lotta people on my grandads side was in the war. All on different fronts, different specifics like the Luftwaffe, and the Kriegsmarine. Though not as exciting as the one you see now.
Mr. Valkorion was it his once owned house in Berlin? Or was it just some random house? Also was he the only one there or did he have a couple other people?
@@Moonlight.Deadite It was just a random building from what he told me. And he said that there was a few other people with him but they too got separated.
I know from my uncle (a soldier 17 years old) that in the past few days the German soldiers in Berlin have only fought not to be caught by the Russians and brought to Siberia. It was a fight for their own lives and no longer for stupid Nazis from which they were abused and betrayed. He said in this last days of war it was no longer a fight Wehrmacht against Red Army, It was a fight that everyone alone or in little groups had to fight against the Red Army to survive. My uncle and 3 other comrades pulled himself in 2 weeks out of Berlin through the subway tunnels and canals and flee at nights through Russian-occupied territory to river Elbe. He swam to the western side and surrender himself to the British and was after 6 weeks POW camp dismiss and was at home near Kiel. Many of his comrades were caught by the Russians and didn't come home until 5 years later, but most came never back. 80 percent of his old comrades died or murdered in Siberian gulags.
Those cameramen were risking their lives just as much as any soldier on the battlefield. May they rest with highest respect.

I don't think he died. If was hit by that 57mm cannon he would't fall to the ground, but his body would be destroyed while taking off. I think he was pushed by the gas coming from the muzzle brake. You know that feeling when some one fires a revolver next to you but its a 57mm AT cannon.

@Buttrape Bill Are you dumb He passed, and fell due to the shock wave from the shot. It’s like a push, no more.
Since the VET fired, this had to be done immediately.
@Buttrape Bill You better compare the Americans, who in less than a year killed more than 500 thousand of their soldiers on the Western front, given the fact that Germany in 1944 could not even resist adequately.
@Lord Farquaad You are really stupid. 80% of all Axis troops were located on the eastern front, their elite were there, and as a result of the war we lost even less than the Axis. And the United States, with an adversary who could no longer defend normally in the west, because all the troops were in the east, managed to lose 500 thousand soldiers.
The USSR in 2 months in Japan has done more than the USA in 4 years.
The United States and the next 50 years subjected hundreds of thousands of its soldiers as a result of nuclear tests, I hope you do not need to talk about this.
My point is that you are an idiot who is trying to use idiot's arguments in discussions.
riazonbin why are you so fucking biased lol
Imagine being a German soldier in that moment. You are surrounded, you know you will probably die at some point, you know war is over but you are fighting anyway because you must.
Yeah, people defending Moscow or Leningrad probably felt similarly
you are so right!
Imagine how a simple Soviet resident felt when the enemy horde, calling him unworthy to be considered a human, burned his house, deprived him of his homeland, and deprived him of his family. How did the mother feel who sent 11 sons to the front and received one funeral after another? How did the hero Matrosov feel when he rushed at an enemy machine gun to cover it with his body? How did the defenseless girl Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya feel when the Germans tortured her and hung her for everyone to see? How did my great-grandfather feel when he crawled out from under fire with his machine gun with a shot in his leg? For the most part, Russians, especially those whose relatives went to this terrible war, do not feel compassion for the fascist nits
@alexandervaltsev6937 it's not the same because you weren't encircled by a country who wants you dead the Germans had no where to go
they fogught in Berlin and from Poland to stop the advantage of soviet troops also to save german civilians to getting killed and mass raped! soviet troops rape child to older woman thats why! nothing else, the war was over since stalingrad.

1. Run the fuck away from the Russians as far and as fast as you can.
2. Surrender to the Western allies
3. Profit
I hope humanity never sees a war like this again, absolute hell.
1:58 is Smolensk or somewhere in Russia.
If you asked how I felt about it.
It must have been frightening to have to fight an impossible battle, knowing that you are just fighting to survive at that time, you could be brave and try to hold your own, you could try to hide, dessert or be fanatical about your hopeless ideals, some wanted nothing more than revenge for their lost family, homes, comrades, other's believed in the false ideals of a Nazi Germany, many were scared and confused, the worst was being a civilian caught up in the action during the red armies march into Germany especially if you was female. History is most definitely written by the victor's but it's also covered in a dark veil of secrets and atrocities, I suppose in that regard you could argue that the Germans deserved it for their atrocities, but not every German was a monster, on the other hand, not every Russian was a monster either, In war there are no winners or losers, no heroes or villains, only the old and bitter as well as the young and stupid, it doesn't determine who's right or wrong, only who survived & who's left, war is hell and you'd be thankful that we don't have to face such troubling time's, it hurts many and the tragic memories never heal quickly.
Don't take for granted what other's have sacrificed both Allie's and Axis. Not everyone was good obviously but not every one was bad on both sides.
They fought so other's could live.
+1000!
I wouldn't even say history is written by the victors because it's not written by a single entity. It's only true that they don't have to pay for war crimes while the losers do-- had Germany and Japan won (thank God they didn't), they'd host their own Nuremberg trials, though the Allied crimes in general wouldn't rack up as high unless you're counting Red Army offensives or NKVD atrocities
The Germans fought to the end because they knew that they would probably die in Russian captivity if they surrendered, also partly because some still believed in the Nazi ideals, but many knew the war was lost but kept fighting because fear of Russian capture drove them on. They would rather go down fighting or surrender to the Americans and British.
@@charles5895 They were also probably fearful that the USSR was going to annihilate them completely to the point of extinction as well, would most definitely be terrifying
