    Honestly the part about Galland feeling no sense of pride or joy towards killing two pilots was a fascinating look into the human psyche that we don't often hear about. I think the lack of heroic music helped give a raw and sterile feeling that meant I could really understand his emotions. Amazing work as always Yarnhub.

      ​@beefkilla That's not to say ground forces didn't have their own "honor" so to speak, but in the skies it's closer to what you would imagine a "duel" to be since it's just a small number of men and their planes, and whoever is superior in skill or sometimes luck is the one who makes it out of the fight alive. Galland, Franz, and those like them truly were knights of the sky. Only sucked that those who claimed to be "above" them did so in title only, not in honor nor as leaders or even as humans. (Goering and Hitler)

    Recommend checking out “A Higher Call” by Adam Makos. It’s the story of how Luftwaffe pilot Franz Stigler and American pilot Charlie Brown crossed paths and much more. It has a lot of information about the time Franz crossed path with Adolf Galland too, including their time flying Me-262s in the squadron of aces near the end of the war.
    Edit: thx for the likes!

    Galland was a technical advisor for the 1969 film Battle of Britain and a character in the film was based on him. He became friend with British ace Robert Standford Tuck, who was also serving as technical advisor. Tuck would later become a godfather for one of Galland's sons and two remained friends until Tuck's death in 1987, which greatly affect Galland.

  • @ralfklonowski3740
    @ralfklonowski3740 6 месяцев назад +13

    Thank you for featuring one of the best, and surely my favourite of all German WW2 pilots.
    Galland was born in my area, the Ruhr. His wider family still owns a pub/restaurant not far from my place, in the historic farmhouse they have held for seven generations. Accidently, Werner Mölders, Galland's rival as a fighter pilot during the Battle Of Britain and his predecessor as General of the Fighters, also was born around here.
    Adolf Galland was a dashing figure and often invited to British television programs after the war, amiably chatting with his former RAF adversaries to the delight of the audience. My favourite quote from him, after beeing asked if an earlier introduction of jet fighters would have changed the outcome of the war: "No, it would only have prolonged it, thus costing even more lives." An old warrior grown wise.
    His brothers had 17 and around 50 victories to their names when they were killed. The force was strong in that family.
    It is a bit misleading to call Franz Stigler a young pilot when talking about the last months of the war. Not only did he have at least two years experience as a fighter pilot and around 27 confirmed air victories under his belt at the time the two met in the newly formed jet fighter squadron. He was also one of the pilots who had still learned flying as a civilian pilot at the Lufthansa before the war. His main responsibility then was delivering fright and passengers safely to their destination; only later did he learn to destroy other aircraft. I can't help thinking that this contributed to the incident you hinted at towards the end of the video and that Franz Stigler is mainly known for today.
    Again, thank you all for the hard work and dedication you put into making these beautiful animations. Now and then, I still go back to "No Bullets Fly". Greetings from Germany!

  • @Caldera01
    @Caldera01 Год назад +80

    I always wondered about that quote: "Give me an airwing of Spitfires", but you guys gave me the context what I needed for before.
    It makes sense, the Spitfire would be more suited for the task Goering wanted.
    Literally got chills when you brought back old animation. Really shows how you can be proud of your improved work without putting down, or belittling your previous work.
    I have a feeling most creators would feel that "that old style would clash too much and wouldn't be up to our modern quality standards".
    It also amazes me how even in the most horrible regime, there's still so many examples of old Germanic chivalry even in WW2. Not just when facing an enemy like with Ziegler, but also when it comes to standing up to your own values and standards against more powerful people, even if you're on the "same side". Not too surprised how someone named Gallant would show the values of being gallant.

      Ironically enough they could've potentially had exactly the bird they needed for the job. The Avia B. 135 had very similar flight characteristics to the spitfire but when Germany occupied Czechoslovakia they had it's elliptical wings switched out for a pair borrowed off a 109 and concluded that it wasn't good enough to be put into mass production so they had Avia produce 109's instead

    I got to meet him at a fighter pilot's symposium in 1990. Along with Johnnie Johnson, Cocky Dundas, Don Kingaby, Hub Zemke, Guenther Rall, and Walter Krupinski, among others. They were ALL remarkable, but Galland walks in, 80-something years old, with a wife half his age on his arm, and a charisma that dominated the room. In a room full of many of the world's greatest aces, He was a damn rock star, and all the other aces knew it, too.

      Douglas Bader is a legendary British fighter pilot of WWII. He lost his leg doing what he was born to do: flying fighter aircraft in air combat.

    Marvelous work, and a great little snippet of Galland's remarkable life. If you ever chose to expand this episode, it would be great to see how he began his career on open-cockpit, ground-attack biplanes, but got a friendly doctor to give him a fake diagnosis of a condition which required he switch to closed-cockpit 109's! Also, his connection to Douglas Bader, and postwar friendship with Johnnie Johnson, would be worth mentioning. Anyway, great stuff!

    Yet another amazing and incredible animated video from you guys at Yarnhub.
    I didn't realise that Stigler had told Galland about letting the Ye Olde Pub go before the story broke with Charlie Brown. Galland also kept a close friendship with Sir Douglas Bader, and was one of the advisors during the filming of the movie 'The Battle Of Britain'
    A few suggestions for a vid would be the Battle Of Taranto Harbour, where the Italian Supermarina was attacked at night by Royal Navy Swordfish torpedo bombers.
    The Battle Of Cape Matapan, where a young Prince Philip was mentioned in dispatches.
    Operation Pedestal, the 1942 convoy that saved Malta GC
    Photo recon pilot Adrian Warburton
    Legendary fighter ace George Beurling

A suggestion for a future video (or you might already have one and I missed it) could be the battle for Iwo Jima. I have relatives that fought there and it would be amazing to be able to hear your interpretation and research on it. Keep up the great work!

    My maternal Stepgrandfather met Galland after the war in either Belgium or Holland at a Cocktail Party. Stepgrandfather worked for Boeing and Pratt & Whitney since before the war as a mechanic (all of mom's side of the family worked for Boeing, her grandfather was one of Boeing's Lawyers) and helped develop the B-17 and had been unfit for service so continued in their employment during the war. After the war he worked for Boeing selling their aircraft in Europe. He and some people were talking about what they did during the war and he talked of his role developing the B-17. Galland thought highly of our B-17s, found them very difficult to bring down. Anyway You really should give the full story of Galland such as his friendship with former RAF Pilots Baader and Tuck among others as well as his role in making the move Battle of Britain among other things.
