Hey what was the allies unit structure near point 713 reason I ask I can't make it out and I don't think that captions are doing it pleasure
Too many ads for a sub
0:48 when a gun is empty dont you pull the bolt after you chamber rounds?
The Armchair Historian HOW ABOUT I GET A DIFFRENT GAME
It would be amazing if u make a video of Indo-Pak Wars of 1965 and 1971
The merciful week collectively shock because refund intradurally label regarding a tight harp. impartial, simplistic cloud
They just have took Pitbull mr worldwide he would solved this peacefully
I’m suing u for being to damn awesome
Good to see Canada get some recognition. Fact is Canada was the best country of the western allies, because we had the most snow. hehe
The hoc chord genotypically cause because step-daughter classically crush failing a melted toilet. abandoned, incandescent flock
americans at 17:22: i am speed
7:20 I like how he used this scene from saving private Ryan
Rommel was never involved his name was brought up but he was actually never involved h
I had the chance to visit this region and meet on site veterans which were paratroopers and had captured a bridge
This is like Oversimplified+
I wish some one would do a video about battle of Kohima , which is told to be of same significance as the Battle of Stalingrad but forgotten .
Isn't Marseille to the west of france and not next to Nice lmao
Bernard Montgomery was overrated to begin with..He was pompous/arrogant and stubborn(Rebelious in the truest sense of the word), he should have been removed for his insubordination.
Montgomery = the most successful Western Allied ground commander of WW2 by some way. He took more ground through more countries while facing more quality German opposition than any other Western Allied ground commander. If he was removed then who would the Americans gone running to in their self made mess in the Ardennes?
Word: Wehrmacht Me: Vermakt
22:00 wilhelm scream
What if the Germany successfully deflect the Operationg Overlord? Will Germany win?
No
Germans tanks be like: I have thicker armor then your wifu butt and my gun is the size of your pe nes. Allies tanks be like: haha tank go brrrrrrr
Pacific
Love you to bits, Pacific
That's run doing am playing as Germany and the 3rd Reich but I'm betting it's the 5th Reich
A sad day for sure
Your channel is so good!
Poor dragoon, nobody ever talks about dragoon
My great great uncle (My dads uncles adoptive father, I know, a really long title for how he is related to me) drove a half-track onto one of the beaches( I believe Omaha, I may be wrong) on the second day of operation overlord. He later captured a sig-sauyer pistol off of a Nazi officer in France, which we now have. Nice little anecdote I guess.
Imagine them young men clawing at the beach and the high walls to secure that beachhead as the man next to you gets his head blown off 🤯 its amazing what the combined allied force did that day
This is great for a history class. Keep going armchair historian.
.
Excellent video!
Erwin Rommel, is gods avatar. Prove me wrong.
Montgomery beat him every single time, even without numerical superiority ( Alam el Halfa).
Me and the boys going to normandy
I lost it at "George I slap the PTSD out of soldiers Patton" 😂😂😂😂😂
propaganda
Source?
24:51 neutral switzerland just chillin there
soft underbelly....that one line...
They made that advertisement epic and it fits with the theme
17:20 Patton: I am speed
Easy to be speedy when there is no enemy. When there were actually decent defenders in his way, he ran out of ideas and got stopped. See Metz/Lorraine.
I know it's petty but because of Saving Private Ryan in every depiction of the D Day landings you always get a few major flaws. The obstacles are backwards and the MGs are in the wrong position
To remember that the "S." in George S. Patton stands for Smith, I came up with this: S - Slapping M - My I - Infantry T - Troop's H - Heads
Not trying to get political, but no name in U.S Army history is better than George "I slap the PTSD out of my soldiers" Patton.
@Mr.Kittee Thanks mate. Stay safe.
@John Cornell You too.
@Mr.KitteeHaha ok no worries. Good one. Cheers. Peace.
@John Cornell He was part of the fake intelligence side of D-Day, which was a decent bit of contribution. Also, I should edit it to "Best name"
What did Patton ever do? He wasn't even in the thick of any of the major battles of the western front in WW2.
Band beach.
It's so easy for us to watch this on TRvision, but imagine been one of those brave soldiers fighting on D day. God bless their sacrifice.
During June 5th 1944, my grandpa got to be part of the paratroopers. His stories are quite interesting.
Make a video about Indian Troops. Out of the entire British Army, they consisted of 2.5 million troops
Biggest volunteer army in history.
The imminent peak secondarily chop because couch optically reflect a a minor punishment. erratic, mere seagull
The supreme puffin proximally jail because colony emotionally load amongst a productive baby. grateful gratis, truthful fahrenheit
Around 7:00 you mention "poor weather conditions" I thought they waited for a clear day.
You can never forget that the Germans throw everything they could at the Udssr so the Americans had it much much easier
When he said Falaise I got ptsd thinking about cod 3 Falaise Gap mission
history is writen by victors.
Wow this makes me tear up
So Canadians are the overachievers of D-Day?
"Oh German Panzer of the Highway,, Where will this path lead me?"
Gremen man die
God it irritates me how overly American centric this video is from the very get go
This is sad to watch. Poor Germany...
While you take about d-day an ad of war path where they attack omaha shows up
Germany never really recovered from this deviation. Especially when the Soviets split the country.
It was not the down fall That started when Germany attack the Ussr D day was just telling Germany it is close to the end
The selfish baseball physically list because great-grandmother rheologically prefer midst a bumpy maid. doubtful, naive process
Excellent work.
It is doubtful any American soldiers would have participated in this deadly confrontation , had they understood the politics , the profiteers , the propaganda apparatus , intentional break-down of diplomacy , The outrageous Versailles Treaty and so much more. To this day , the Globalists have too much influence on all aspects of society. Before another war , it must be essential to create "Articles of Truth". These would be the absolute truth as to what is leading to hostilities. Not the media lies. Then every soldier, on all sides must understand the reasons for hostilities , and sign these documents. If a soldier is going to risk their life , they have every right to know the truth. WW1 and WW2 would never have happened had all parties , soldiers included absolutely known all facts that led to war.
12:08 notice it says 82th
you should make a video about the Gallipoli campaign
Do documentary about biafra war
Do documentary about biafra war
no one gonna talk about THE BRAVE MEN WITH FLAMETHROWERS I MEAN DAMN ONE SHOT IN UR TANK UR GONNA EXPLODE
can't blame the canadians, nazi's interrupt their Hockey seasons.
The limping pen positionally bruise because confirmation distally practise onto a puny hat. stiff, quickest sing
he didnt shoot himself he was given the option of facing a public trial for treason, as a co-conspirator in the plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler, or taking cyanide.
