Thank you for this upload. I did not know that the Germans soldiers who were fighting at Stalingrad were involved in German atrocities on Eastern Front as well. Thank you for this video, very informative as usually.
Exactly. Why in the heck would you not believe any old or new accusation of war crimes committed by the German Wehrmacht '? The victors always write the history and give the official narrative.
The plain fact, supported by evidence, is that the vast majority of the 90,000 remnants of the 6th army who perished, died in the immediate few weeks after the surrender in January 1943. The main cause of death were diseases like typhus, which ravaged the starving German soldiers. Even if the Soviet authorities had been able to house German prisoners in ideal facilities, the death rate wouldn't have been significantly lower. As it was, no such facilities existed in the ruined city of Stalingrad and the surrounding area. Sadly, the misery endured by German PoWs was entirely the consequence of their own actions, in destroying the city and then not surrendering, when offered terms to do so by the Soviets, in December 1942.
The 91,000 captured German, Romanian, Hungarian, Italian soldiers were already dying from starvation, injuries, typhus, exposure .... SMERSH & NKVD executed caught alive SS and Hiwi in Stalingrad but most of German soldiers died during the 1st few weeks of captivity in spite of the effort the Soviet authorities to save lot of them
Less than 5% of all prisoners captured by the Russians returned home ( less than 3% 0f German captives returned to Russia ). Your statement is nonsensical - both authoritarian regimes had no compassion for their captives.
This is a myth. Only 4 percent of Russian prisoners who surrendered to Nazis were sentenced. If the position of soldiers was impossible to defend they were allowed to surrender without any consequences.
War is evil and destructive no matter which side you are on. Wars should be completely banned, but then states and organizations would not earn anything from it. People's suffering makes the most money. Another great documentary that proves it.
@@1940limited Also, there are really many reports of the Red Army building itself up at the border. I believe Barbarossa was a preventive war, even if it sounds weird. Because after one or two years, the USSR would have been able to completely overrun whole Europe and no one would have helped them.
The Wehrmacht was more complicit in war crimes in the USSR and Ukraine than history would have you believe as well as Ukrainians, Baltic peoples, Yugoslavia etc etc. The SS and Wehrmacht would rather hand off duties to the civilians in the region rather than do it themselves. Not necessarily Babi Yar though.
Yeah, the Russians under Stalin had just finished killing off tens of millions of their own people BEFORE the war, so they were probably a little tired.
@@ApriliaRacer14 The allies committed a few atrocities still they were saints if you compare them to the Nazis. Nazis were so evil that they practically planned to torture and gas millions of babies and children and actually did it. No even Stalin, who was a monster, planned such diabolical acts on children. The Nazis were a special kind of evil.
There are two German cheap supermarkets in the UK founded by two German soldiers who served in the Wehrmacht . One did serve on the Russian front ! Just curious that's all ?! Perhaps one can look at these two characters and see what dreadful deed (or not) they committed?
This title is BS. The Babi Yar massacre was not carried out by ALL the 6th army!! Totally wrong. It was carried out by the Einsatzgruppen, Order Police battalions, Ukrainian Auxiliary Police, and Sonderkommando 4a. Some members of the 6th army were involved, NOT all of it by any means.
It is worth noting that the 6th Army’s previous commander, Walther von Reichenau, was an ardent Nazi who issued the Severity Order, which encouraged war crimes against Soviet civilians, especially Jewish ones. He also ordered the killing of Jewish children at Bila Tserkva, overruling one of his subordinates, Oberst Helmuth Groscurth, who had attempted to spare the children. So I wouldn’t say that every single soldier in the 6th Army was a diehard Nazi or had committed massacres, but, at the same time, von Reichenau’s fanatical Nazi command of the formation and the culture he attempted to instil it with may well have resulted in a higher rate of atrocities than other Heer armies. I’ll have to do more research into it. Regardless, the victims should be remembered. It can be easy to forget when reading or writing about them like this that every single one of them was a real person, who was once just as alive as you are now. Remember them.
The German Army created the space for those massacres and they all knew 100% what would happen in their rear. So shut up. They should have stayed home.
I was born on 2nd February, and since last 9 years, I feel proud of being born on such a important date in history - the end of Battle of Stalingrad. ❤️
The fact is all over Eastern Europe and in the Balkans especially Greece the Army was directly involved in massacres .There were serious breaches of International Law and widespread acts of intentional and sadistic behaviour and brutality directed against civilians.
Wehrmacht never recovered from the counterattack west of Moscow, let alone the encirclement at Stalingrad. But if they had recovered, that would have been far worse.
About the extermination of Kiev Jewry during two days in September 1941 by SS and Einsatzgruppe C, read the book by Ukrainian writer Anatoli Kuznetsow with title 'A Document in the Form of a Novel (published in 1966).
My German grandfather was a POW at a Russian camp. He was given the choice of one bread slice a day or shipped by train to Romania and Ukraine for two bread slices a day and to bury corpses murdered by Stalin's boys. So he chose to bury dead bodies for two full years in Ukraine & Romania. Two slices a day saved his life..... but nothing saved his soul. A shell of a man after that. There is only so much debauchery any human can take before a break down.
Well I have a certain sympathy for your grandfather specially him being a soldier and simply following orders I’ve got to be truthful with you I don’t really feel sorry for the German people or the German army and as the whole because you attacked those guys you were the aggressors you raped Europewhat you did in your concentration camp was unforgivable what you did Russia with your desk squads that came in the aftermath of being conquered of areas was equally catastrophic to those people in short you guys pretty much got what you had coming.
As a murdering German soldier, he does not deserve empathy of any sort. He and his pals killed people by the millions just to kill them, and you think he was a hero????

This is nothing new as I read in 1968 in various books on Barbarossa about the 80,000 Germans captured in Stalingrad who never returned back to Germany. I posted this 2 years ago on YT and got called a dirty commie.
Polish officers who occupied Russian land from the 1919 invasion into Russia were put in cattle wagons in winter and taken to Siberia in 1939. Every morning the doors would be slid open and the bodies which had frozen overnight would be taken out. At the destination they were told to dig up frozen potatoes and then were chained up in a column and pulled by a tractor hundreds of kilometers to a work camp deep in the forest.
I still can't understand why was a defeat in Stalingrad such a calamity for Wehrmacht? They've lost more soldiers a year prior during the unsuccessful Operation Typhoon that was meant to encircle Moscow..I understand the symbolic value of losing a fieldmarshal and being defeated in the city named after your arch nemesis Stalin, but an actual strategic and operational loos of 300 000 men wasn't supposed to be such a momentous point in the war.. Of course from today's perspective losing 300 000 men seems equal to losing 300 million, but the Wehrmacht, together with their allies, had around 4 million men on the Eastern front at that point.. That being said it's even stranger that the Russians lost much more men and material but they didn't care about casualties (just like they don't today in Ukraine) and were able to replenish fresh troops with weapons and material sent by us Americans...
The German defeat at Stalingrad was a calamity for them because it spelt the end of their hopes of capturing the Baku oilfields and hence of any chance of strategic victory. It was all downhill for them after that.
@@spritbong5285 BS, The Ukrainians that died did not want to leave their farms for the government run farms so their food was confiscated. Ukrainians worked for the Einsatzgruppen in Belarus and burned alive millions of civilians.

They recon the biggest mistake the Germans mafe with Starlingrad was bombing it to rubble as this suited the Russians. It made using the liked if tanks impossible. Which mafe it harder for the Germans. But hreat for the Russians.
We now know that the US conducted Operation Paperclip, bringing technologically and politically significant former Nazis to the US for adoption of their rocketry and evaluation of military tactics used in on the Eastern Front in Operation Barbarossa, for the purpose of helping the US win the cold war against the USSR and developing US technology. For example, the Saturn V rocket was a descendant of a Nazi program to construct a multi stage V2 style rockets that could cross the Atlantic and hit the Eastern US, as a response to the massive and very effective bombing campaign the USAF conducted on Nazi Germany. The USSR had a similar program they used in the Eastern German occupied zone in what became East Germany. So the US owes much of its space program to captured Germans, and I wonder, given the US determination to destabilize and break up Russia (as Zbig Brezinski advocated going back to the 1970s) and using Ukraine as a proxy to do so, if the rocket tech was all that was transferred from the Nazis to the US. Maybe some long term political goals also rubbed off?
I am very sorry for Germans!....I could not stop crying. There are many anti German comments here. But, I want to tell German people: there are millions who LOVE you. My relative is married to German!
Point of correction, he gives as one of the reasons for the red army taking vengeance against the nazis was the mass murder of 33,000 jews at babyn yar. That played no role, in fact, the red army gave it little or no thought.

Anglo Saxon cousins of the 85,000 prisoner Nazi soldiers have not forgotten the torture, beatings & executions their kin suffered for which they are having the Eastern Slavs paying for it now in their Ukraine region.
It would be fair to name them as "German soldiers" and not using always the name "Nazi". Not all germans where Nazis, and they did not even called themselves "Nazis". Many soldiers were grabbed and sent to war as usual and they had no choice. It was that or facing an execution squad.
according to Wiki-The German military first clashed with the Red Army's Stalingrad Front on the distant approaches to Stalingrad on 17 July. On 23 August, the 6th Army and elements of the 4th Panzer Army launched their offensive with support from intensive bombing raids by the Luftwaffe, which reduced much of the city to rubble.
Hard to imagine this after WW1......Insane behavior must be part of human nature ..Slow learners always pay...

If Trump loses, the United States will be a communist country.
Every time I see a video of Adolph Hitler delivering a fist pounding speech haranguing about the greatness of Germany and the evils of non-Germans, I see Donald Trump screaming at one of his rallies.
You speak total rubbish geofromn. I have never seen Donald Trump SCREAM at a rally. You are just jealous because he makes sense, and is not just some empty headed cackling hen
If you're a POW you could never be a "former" soldier. What a stupid thing to say.
Anglo Saxon cousins of the 85,000 prisoner Nazi soldiers have not forgotten the torture, beatings & executions their kin suffered for which they are having the Eastern Slavs paying for it now in their Ukraine region.
Bullshite.
It would be fair to name them as "German soldiers" and not using always the name "Nazi". Not all germans where Nazis, and they did not even called themselves "Nazis". Many soldiers were grabbed and sent to war as usual and they had no choice. It was that or facing an execution squad.
I believe it was a Yid who invented the term Nazi😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Was sind Nazi Soldiers ? Kenne ich nicht.
The SS was the armed wing of the Nazi Party, not regular soldiers of the national army.
This is a DISGRACEFUL and untrue title for a video of misinformation! It should be reported by everyone until RUclips take it down! 😡
Holocaust denier
Troll farm hard at work in these comments 😂
Battle of Stalingrad, started on 23rd of August, not on July 17th.
Get your facts straight first, before uploading in RUclips.
according to Wiki-The German military first clashed with the Red Army's Stalingrad Front on the distant approaches to Stalingrad on 17 July. On 23 August, the 6th Army and elements of the 4th Panzer Army launched their offensive with support from intensive bombing raids by the Luftwaffe, which reduced much of the city to rubble.
THE IDF IN ACTION ?
