It's one thing to see the old war footage from back then but seeing the same locations as they look today gives you a whole new perspective on what you saw from the older footage. I would love to see more of these before and after videos. They really add a lot to seeing the history and events of WW2.
Thank you for the comment 👍 glad you enjoyed watching the video, these videos take a really long time to make, and me making more depends on the video to d6 good, for now it looks RUclips shadow banned it and people only complain about the video. So not looking good.
For someone that spends a lot of time in Belgium it is really nice to see what it actually looked like during the war. Many times as I drive or take walks I wonder who walked before me. Keep up the great work 👍
Fascinating, I was in Normandy back on June 23 ,, planning on doing the Band of Brothers tour in the fall of 25 and visiting Belgium, where the Battle of the Bulge took place is part of the Package.
God bless you for sharing this with me and my family who was there and I have the ration books and my Grandfather's war Bible and army picture. He came back from where you are right after Patton liberated Bastogne wounded and worked at the Bantam Jeep factory and made torpedoes till the Japanese Surrender then Pullman Standard Railroad took over. He worked there until 1982 retired and passed away in Summer I was 14. Thanks again for your time and your work with this we enjoyed your video so much I appreciate your dedication of our nation joining the war against the Axis today after the US Congress declared war on 8/ December/ of 1941! God bless you all and I will pray that you and your families have a great Holiday Season and a Merry Christmas! So grateful to have this. Sharing, liking, already Subscription holder and I will show this at school with your permission please. Thanks again for your time, work, research and diligence on the video!⚡💥😊
Wonder if it is the same house redone with the 2 chimneys I can't tell with the street view but I will have to say great job finding the places and photography on private property can be tricky.
I drove around the Ardenne one May and it really impressed me how hard it is to navigate and find your way on those narrow winding roads. Tanks could go cross country but all the supply vehicles would have been forced to take narrow, muddy or snow covered tracks that wind and undulate through the hills and with many of the roadsigns removed, I'm amazed how the Germans could even get to their objectives back then.
I live only about 10 km from Poteau. When the museum was still there, also the wooden shed in the field, where the big tree is been seen in the vid, was still there. My brother and i took a drive in a Czech halftrack, sdkfz251 lookalike. It costed €12 but it was worth it. The ride was on the field where the Jagdpanzer drove.
@@PanzerPicture they only painted it over several months ago. The museum was on the corner. Pitty that it is gone. The museum at Baugnez will close in January.
After law school I enlisten in the Army MP corp in 1990 and in 1991 I deployed to Germany for Reforger 1991 during the winter months. In some of the fields im Germany still bears the scars of world war II including bomb creators. The snow was nice and smooth and while advancing I ran across the field with my platoon leader watching me run I disappeared. I fell 7 feet into a wwii bomb creator. Needless to say, after 32 years later I still get asked if I remember that time I was there running across the field and the next moment I disappeared by my former LT
2 minutes in and realised you just found places in belgium that sort of resemble the stuff from the war. There are many better channels on yt that do this sort of footage. with maybe actual unchanged landmarks.
@@vw2112 maybe you want to look up the town names and research for yourself, or start your own channel. Either way the taste of foot will stay in your mouth for a long time.
You aren't allowed to show bodies on RUclips, it's as plain and simple as that and even if they would, I would not show these bodies, this is one of the worst footage reels out there, showing it would add nothing to the video, I personally can handle seeing bodies like this, but some people don't want to see that, which I can understand.
@@thundercheck3691 History channels are getting shadowbanned all over the place, this channel had many trouble with YT and people like this think only about themselves, adding the orginal footage changes nothing.

@Panzer Picture then those people shouldn't watch Ur videos. Trigger warning 4 them. I've seen usa utube film from 1944 45. ETO. Blown up us vechile dead GI. Always sobering. But that's war
I love the Video, it's just sad to think they need to pixel out images that they feel RUclips will find offensive. If it's youtube then shame on them. We are all adults here let us see without feeling we can't handle the truth.
It's against YT rules to show bodies, but even if they allowed it I would not show these bodies, they are too too graphic and add nothing to the video.
@@PanzerPicture I understand your thinking. At the same time, i feel it subtracts from the historical context. For example, why were the Civil War photos taken at Antietam and Gettysburg taken and published? To highlight to true realities of war. They used to glorify combat, and those photos showed what war really looked like, with the hope of discouraging it. Thank you for the hard work you put into these videos! Then and now photos always have captivated me. Please keep up the good work.

I can't even apprehend how much time these videos take to make, but they are seriously my favorites on this channel, thank you for this.
They take a while indeed Mike, thank you for the support onces again.
@@PanzerPicture no problem. I will always try to support this channel.
I think you mean comprehend. Not apprehend😂😂😂

Wow what a great video you did, how it was was then & now. Congratulations and thanks for sharing this interesting video. 👍 👍👍
You're welcome, glad you like it. 👍
A very moving film.stunning really.such history never to be forgotten ever

You're welcome.
Another great video, appreciate the editing and war footage, some that I’ve never seen before!!
Thank you Michael, I really appreciate all the comments.
Absolutely excellent! I really enjoyed seeing the then and now footage. Much research and work went into this effort. Very well done!
Thank you Rick.
War looks so much more appealing when you blur out the horror - thanks!
great footage, thank you so much for your effort. it would have been great thought if you'd filmed during winter, the same time of the year
Kind of reminds me of the magazine "after the battle ". Thank you for posting.
You're welcome and indeed it's just like that.
Very nicely done. A lot of research went into this.

The incredible cost of peace.. amazing travel to the days of fire and steel..and blood
Top notch.mesmerising
Great video 👍
Thank you 👍
That’s cool u found poteau ambush sight. I tried finding it. Or maybe I did n drove by it andidnt realize it was the spot.

When the museum was there, it was easier to find, because of the information at the museum.

NICE!
Real Nice job
Thank you 👍
How do you go about finding information about your father in World War II?
God Bless America.Really Courageous.
I wish you could label all the photos.
AUS DE TRAUM From The Dream? Wonder what he is talking about
So much different in color and no barbed wire fence.
Yes no snow either coldest on record in 1944
What's with all the negative waves in the comments.
I think I have a idea, I had a discussion with a extremely distributed person, which obviously had multiple accounts, arguing about clickbait.
Why censoring ?
Because YT will destroy my channel.
Can still see fence posts
Wow!!!!
Yes and how these images can repeat themselves in Europe again
Top video. Wel stom van youtube 😡
If things on video's are blurred out i am off bye bye 👋
And if I leave it like it is this channel is OFF shadowbanned and bye bye.
Those tanks are pretty cool but war is such a waste.. it is what it is🤔
🙂👍
That Erie sound that Nazi tanks made
AUS DER TRAUM🗿⏳🔫

@@vw2112 These spots are well recorded and are posted on almost every Then and Now page out there. How can you not recognize them? 🤡
Can't watch pixelated content. Senseless history...
Can watch anything if you show it because a banned channel is a dead channel.
Dislike por pixelar
Without it RUclips will delete the video so stop being entitled.

blurring reality serves no purpose. Watched 30 seconds,down vote
Showing that wont do nothing for the video then get it deleted. 🤡
These channels are getting shadowbanned, but this guy wants d3ad people to yu. Rk of 2.
