Another great video, very informative and educational but at the same time entertaining. The footage and period photographs are really interesting. I don't remember seeing that footage on the likes of World at War. As a former Boy Scout I was also interested in the actions of those Chinese scouts. Fascinating stuff. The footage at 6.21 showing the US Marines is interesting as the marine is armed with a Springfield 30-30 but wears the BAR webbing belt. Cool stuff.
Thanks! It took a while to find a lot of the footage from different archives and databases. Oftentimes, the labels/titles are really general or sometimes, entirely incorrect so it takes quite a while to go through the footage and pick out the ones that I need. Scout organisations were actually really popular in Shanghai as it was a really multicultural city. I know for a fact that the Boy Scouts of America had a troop there and the Germans living there even had their own Hitler Youth group. Surprisingly, I believe the Boy Scouts of America still has a troop in Shanghai (Troop 969 I think) but it's only open to non-Chinese children. Thanks again for watching!
@@resistanceremembered Well done on sourcing the period footage, most of it is totally new to me and I've been watching documentaries for over 40 years. The footage of the Japanese troops using the heavy type 96s and light type 92s are great. Interesting about the Shanghai BSA troop, but I suppose that there will be a large American ex-pat community there? Do you know whether Yang Huimin survived the war? Looking forwards to your future output.
@@HanauMan Thanks again! Yeah, there’s a pretty big expat population there so I guess having a troop there makes sense. Yang Huimin did survive the war. She moved to Taiwan following the civil war and was quite well known there for her role during the Battle of Sihang Warehouse. However, the soldiers weren’t as lucky though, and many of them did not live to see the end of the war. Thanks again for watching!
@@resistanceremembered Im having difficulty doing any video's at the moment, they are working on the rail line behind my house and the excavators are too loud ,cheers
Yeah, having a lot of background noises can really be an issue. Luckily, I live in a relatively peaceful neighbourhood. I look forward to the video though!
Another great historical video, keep it up. Btw when you mention doing a video on the Japanese attack on the USA ship if there is interest......just do it...I guarantee I will watch as will everyone else. You've got a great channel m8, excellent stuff, Canada's answer to Mark Felton! 🙂🙂🙂🙂
I always try to watch Mark Felton’s videos. But I have to say, the speed at which he updates his channel really fast! From research to finding historical footage to editing, it would seem that it takes him a week! Not to mention he has two channels! Sometimes I wonder how he does it 😂
@@resistanceremembered yeh I know what you mean...might be his full time job , he is an author too. I would give it a go as my full time employment...ha ha...if only 🙂🙂🙂
@@steelhelmetstan7305 That definitely sounds nice! It’s always a good thing to be able to earn money doing what you like! I would say that finding a job that you enjoy nowadays is actually harder than it sounds 😂
Thanks for watching! I usually get the videos from 1930s/1940s documentaries and newsreels. However, you have to know what you're looking for in order pick out the useful footage, haha. I also spend time looking at sources from different countries. The Internet Archive is a good place to start if you're looking for footage about the Sino-Japanese War. Hope this helps and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Came here after watching that The Eight Hundred(Ba bai) movie. I guess it wasn't historically accurate at all. Thank you for the video. Hope to see 4th part.
Thanks for watching! Yeah certain parts of the movie were dramatized. However, the amount of detail, such as the uniforms and most of the weapons was really nice though. I’m really glad you enjoyed the video! I’m in the process of making Part 4 so stay tuned!
Thanks! I usually get them from places like the Internet Archive, and the National Archive. I will also look at Chinese and Japanese databases as well for some of the footage. RUclips can be another good resource as sites like the National Archives will upload some of their videos onto their channel. But some of the videos you find on RUclips may have copyright restrictions so one always has to be careful about that. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you for this video. All of this was new to me. I had thought I was well-educated about the history of the War, but obviously, most of the Second Sino-Japanese War is new to me. Why has this been so neglected by Western sources? Anyway, well done you
The history of the Second Sino Japanese war really is quite complex but at the same time, extremely interesting to learn about. It a shame that it’s been relatively forgotten nowadays. I’m glad you found the video informative. Thanks for watching!
The bridge is officially known as New Lese Bridge in most English sources. The names of roads and bridges can be extremely confusing in Shanghai during that time as many different translations/transliteration styles were used. Some conformed to the Wade Giles system, others did not. Some were given their own names in English. That makes it extremely confusing. That’s why I decided to try and keep things consistent by at least providing the Chinese pinyin name of the all the roads. That should make things a bit easier if people are trying to reference the maps from the video with other period maps. Thanks for watching!

Awesome video,
I may also want to ask how you got all those videos and photos of the battle. I searched all over google and i could not find any

Most interesting

Why did you use transliteration instead of translation of meaning? Shouldn't 垃圾桥 be translated as Garbage Bridge?
The bridge is officially known as New Lese Bridge in most English sources. The names of roads and bridges can be extremely confusing in Shanghai during that time as many different translations/transliteration styles were used. Some conformed to the Wade Giles system, others did not. Some were given their own names in English. That makes it extremely confusing. That’s why I decided to try and keep things consistent by at least providing the Chinese pinyin name of the all the roads. That should make things a bit easier if people are trying to reference the maps from the video with other period maps. Thanks for watching!
Well to be honest I'm easily forgot everything I study and research I have a bad memory that why I research again this conflict.
Thanks for watching! I hope you found the video interesting!
你把这个系列翻译成中文会不会更多人看，我是专门搜索 Chinese German trained division 才出来的，不然都错过这么好的作品了。
您好，非常感谢您的支持。我确实在考虑给视频加个中文字幕的但一直没有时间哈哈哈。但以后有空了应该会加的。谢谢观看！
What happened next?
The next video is coming soon! I’m in the process of making it so stay tuned!
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed it!
great footage and let us know if you are in favor of mutual support and love dear
Thanks again for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
