More authentic and realistic than the 1965 film version Crane Hunter!

True but at least Robert Shaw did make a very convincing German general!

Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

And Henry Fonda is always great.

How’s this for some interesting trivia? The prison where Hitler was sentenced to in 1923 for the failed coup against the Weimar Republic is still in operation today by the Federal Republic of Germany.

The Nebelwerfer was dubbed by British troops, 'Moaning Minnie'

Typical Brit lash up featured there, "I say chaps, how about this for a jolly wheeze...Bung a couple of Tiffie rockets on the side of the tank and give Jerry what-for up the wazzoo."

As to the remark regarding the Calliope, similar outraged comments was addressed to a fellow tank commander of my wife's father regarding the use Churchill Crocodile Flamethrower tank. He was admonished by a surrendering German Officer. Lambasted that this terrible and demoralising weapon was "unfair, unsporting and un-English!".
Many dispirited and poorly trained Heer by the time Mike was in action in Germany capitulated at the mere knowledge that these tanks were in the vicinity.

There was a second Pearl Harbor attack and the British were at Battle of the Bulge?

\Why do you ask all of these incessant questions when you're the one digging up these Youtube videos and supposedly watching them? Haven't these videos already answered your questions?

On the subject of Pearl Harbour, this 3 part series covers a part no one thinks about- the salvage of the ships after the raid.
For those of you who haven't watched any of Drach's channel and like some really detailed 'forgotten history', you are in for a treat.

Why do you incessantly persecute me?

It's called discussing history after learning about it. You can learn more beyond what is printed in a history book or on a website article or in YouTube video through discussing things.

When he was a young pup, Panzer was one those lassies in class who didn't raise his hand to ask questions and who didn't participate in discussions after the teachers have given their lesson lectures. He sat in the back and tweedle doo his thumbs: when the teachers ask a question, he would make himself smaller and pray teacher wouldn't call him up to the front of the classroom to answer the question.

Thank you Bolox. I did not know they salvage those sunken warships and put them back in service. INCREDIBLE!

More learning.





This I know. It was propaganda. I bet in the mind of those troops, the American were thinking I hate you commie #%&*$#, if they let me I will kill you all. The Russians were thinking you Yanks are not taking Berlin and Hitler. Berlin and Hitler it's ours and we will kill you all for it.
