A fascinating look at the Gurkhas.

What I found really strange is that during training there is no 'encouragement' via bullying,shouting,swearing etc.These guys are already fully motivated and prepared to die in the service of The Queen. Guys who don't make it into basic training would frequently take their own lives rather than return to their villages.

It's just a crying shame that their regiments were disbanded.

These young ladies were crazy.

It is a BBC production about the ATA in WW2 GB.



There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

More of a docu-drama, but it's authentic enough I think to include here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbvZhrt2NBo

All about F-4es and F-5s at Red Flag, and what the pilots lives are like behind the scenes.

I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Unfortunately you never know when the accounts are going to be terminated. I have seen videos available for years and then "poof" the whole channel is gone. Almost always someone else has uploaded it so there is a constant Whack-A-Mole contest going on at YouTube.

Wonder when they will make an updated worlds longest bombing run video with the conflicts in
the Stans. Here is a classic from the Falklands war.

A couple of videos that have to do with the 2nd world war (don't know if they have been mentioned before):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIjmOcp_xhQ
With Major Dick Winters (band of brothers).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfRq-JeUCSM
With 1st Lt.Lynn D. "Buck" Compton and Corporal Earl "One-Lung" McClung (band of brothers).

Both documentaries are worth watching in my opinion.
Enjoy!

Here´s one I´m thoroughly enjoying atm.
APOCALYPSE - The Second World War - Episode 1 - The Aggressionr
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RSCrvr6kBY

Tells the story, in 6 parts, from 1933 on. I watch alot of these and I´ve only seen mebbe 5% of the footage before.
I´m halfway through the second episode and I find it fascinating. It tells it like it was. No fancy music or rhetoric.

Warning: Right from the off it´s quite gruesome in places.

Thanks for that link.I must either have missed this series or it is one I have forgotten after watching so many of them.

Here is one about the 101st airborne division in WW II (again somehow Major Dick Winters is in it!):

Rockwell B-1 Lancer

This educational video depicts the United States Rockwell B-1 Lancer, a four-engine supersonic variable-sweep wing, jet-powered heavy strategic aircraft used by the USAF. It was first envisioned in the 1960s as a supersonic aircraft with Mach 2 speed, and sufficient range and payload to replace the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress. It was developed into the B-1B, primarily a low-level penetration aircraft with long range and Mach 1.25 speed capability at high altitude. It is commonly called the "Bone" (originally from "B-One").



There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
