It is so frustrating! It seems to have been a very recent change in these historical documentaries as I have seen many of them in the past (under a different title). There must have been some sort of policy shift, gets on my nerves
TH-cam is not doing that, their policy is doing that. Or to say it in better terms.. In order for the ads to be allowed, the content has to be friendly to anybody. Dead body's, swearing and anything like that can take that away. Channels just don't want to get a risk on that.
My father's first cousin, Tom Richie, served in the Battle of the Bulge. Daddy said Tom never was able and/or willing to discuss what he had been through there. He stayed in the Army after WWII and served in both the Korean War and the Vietnam War, and upon retiring, served as a state senator in Arizona for several years. He and my father were very close. His mother was my grandmother's sister.
My father also fought in world war two, as a medic, where he saw combat living while living in a cave. He didn't like to talk about WW 2 or the Nazis, and didn't like to be around other WW 2 vets who did. When a program like this came onto our TV, he refused to watch it. Later, he did write a little bit about it. It probably didn't help that he was Jewish, and was born, in New York, in the 1920s, with the name "Adolph". Of course, he changed it and tried to keep it a secret that he had ever had it. I didn't learn about that until after he died.
This is an awesome series, but I'm getting sick and tired of the blurring. It someone doesn't want to see it, they can look away. Why should we lose viewing because of a few whiners?? Idiocy!
These days the “history” most people are exposed to is a series of narratives that no one seems to seriously challenge. The slaughter of the 8th Air Force in 1943, the heavy casualties at Omaha Beach on D-Day, hedgerow fighting, Market Garden, the Bulge… all of these obscure the fact that the Allies invaded Western Europe in June, 1944 and Germany surrendered 11 months later in May, 1945. Less than a year. A stunning rout.

The Allies didn't win WWII. Russia won WWII with help of its allies. The USA's main incentive to open the Western Front was a race to prevent Russia from taking over Europe -- which was only partly successful until the USSR fell.
Market Garden was just one in a series of Montgomery's miserable failures. Why he was not relieved of command is only known to the British high command.
Monty could not have been sacked because he was the Hero of Alemein - the first British land victory against the Germans ... what Churchill called, 'The end of the beginning' ... a victory for which he had the church bells rung all over the UK. The shock and disbelief that this Hero had screwed up so disastrously would have been too great for the nation to comprehend. The damage to moral would have been immense.
The utter catastrophe of the Falaise Pocket in August 1944 destroyed any remaining hope the Germans had of containing the Allied push Eastward to Paris and beyond. Most of the available armor on the Western Front was trapped in that pocket and didn't escape it.
The USSR would have collapsed without the Lend-Lease Act and help from Britain (intelligence). Loss of food would have sealed the fate of the soviets (unless helped by foreign powers fighting for communism) The soviets got enough food from the USA to feed its soldiers for the rest of the war, 12 million boots , 60 percent aluminum and steel, a lot of tin , 90 percent of railway equipment ( the soviets would never have been able to conduct offensives so fast and transfer their main armies to critical points , 300000 trucks were given , 65 percent of aviation fuel and much more apart from 15 percent tanks ,aircrafts Soviet sympathizers say "only 15 per cent was given to USSR"
Fair said. Don’t tell it to those loving Stalin and Pootin - they would be death shocked. Commies were tremendously unthankful to the West. Fascism has been punished for its atrocities, communism- unfortunately not. That’s why we do have this war in Ukraine now.
I'll always respect the blood the Soviets spilled in fighting the Axis, but you are not wrong. After the German opening in '41, the Soviet armies were brutally expanded and disorganized. Much of their experienced service corp was captured and/or killed, and equipment the same. Were it not for the torrent of allied equipment and supplies, it's questionable at best that the Soviets would have been able to hold until D-Day. At minimum, I don't see the Soviets maintaining a cohesive army beyond reserve units and disorganized movements if they lacked lend-lease. And yes, I recognize, as I'm sure some will come proclaiming, that the cumulative productive power arrayed against the Axis meant that victory for the Allies was all but assured. This assumption requires the Soviets not collapsing in the face of Barbarossa. When compared simply by graphs and production figures, sure the war seems unwinnable for the Axis. If the Soviets accept German terms/collapse before the western Allies are prepared to land in Europe, the Axis would then find themselves in a far better position; roughly a third of the military power of their enemies defeated, and now occupying a continental defensive position against purely amphibious landing sites. The aid given to the Soviets is crucial for an Allied victory in Europe.
That's where the world was lucky, if he hadnt attacked russia and instead had allied with them, they wouldnt have fought a war on two fronts and most likely would have won the war
When I was stationed in Germany back in the 70s, a German told me that all soldiers who had not been assigned to the Russian frond were in fear that they might be sent there. He said one's chances of survival were not good there. So all soldiers who were not there were always on their best behavior to keep from getting singled out to got there.
"The partisans looked to the encamped Soviet army for help, but Stalin didn't waste a chance to see a quarter million bodies stack up, no matter who they were."
Only the French could surrender to the Germans, spent most of the war occupied and even aiding the Germans but still have the gall to think they can claim credit for the liberation of Paris even though they did literally nothing.

CdeG did organise the prevention of communist takeover of Paris. Whover freed that city, it wasn't going to fall into their hands and it didn't, not then anyway.

@@staleydu1can’t forget the courage of the French Resistance. Without their intelligence and sabotage, the Allied armies on D-day would’ve had to fight much more panzer divisions and potentially led to the failure of Operation Overlord
All these eps are stolen/ ripped from World War II in Colour a doc from like 2008, it's uploaded elsewhere unedited you just gotta look. You don't have to yell in the comments about them blurring it all the time.
If im not wrong the video said that the V1 killed over 20,000 people in the UK, thats not true, it killed around 7000 and injured 17000 more. Its very important to make that distinction as the V1 allegedly killed more people creating them than they did actually kill people. Each V1 pretty much killed only 1 person and injured 2, they were terrible weapons... they were really ineffective. Its bad for the history books if you try to make them seem deadly, they werent.
It’s rather misleading to suggest that without any of the Western Allies’ knowing he was going to do it, De Gaulle--after Paris had been surrendered by the Germans to the British and Americans--just “waltzed” into the capital and “claimed all the credit while the Allies kept on fighting eastward.” Eisenhower had *insisted* that General De Gaulle and the Free French Army *lead the Allied Forces as they entered and liberated Paris.* This was done for several reasons: 1) to recognise the quite real contributions made by the Free French Army and French Underground Resistance Groups such as the Maquis both before and after D-Day. 2) To raise the spirits of the French nation and help it recover at least some of the sense of pride and good-will toward the United States it had had prior to its fall in 1940. And 3) to take the first steps toward re-establishing France as a major Western Power in the post-War, complicated political situation in Europe. This old documentary characteristically wants to give *every last shred of credit for Hitler’s defeat in Western Europe to the United States,* largely bc of the ugly, “inconvenient” Truth that the greater part of the Wehrmacht’s strength had *been broken in 1943 on the Eastern Front by the Soviets, at Stalingrad and then at Kursk, after which the Third Reich never really recovered.*
except for home produced T-34s, Soviets were supplied with other allied war-winning material (trucks, aircraft), and their commanders supplied cannon and anti-tank fodder with barrier troops. Not much change from today then-lesson from history give me a break! As above correspondent suggested it was a stunning rout, as should Ukraine invasion repulsion be!

There must be somewhere else we can see this uncensored. We watch movies with though fiction or fake it shows more of the reality of death so why not see the reality of truth
I am curious how the people filmed these scenes back then with this kinds of poor cameras during war. What did they use ? A helmet with the camer? It seemed far fatched. Earlier people did not have sophisticated tolls
Most of the German forces were on the eastern front and Anglo/Americans would not have entered Europe ever if those eastern divisions were in the West. Americans were more likely to retreat than the Germans and only won because of numbers.

22:08 The Battle of the Bulge, it was the Germans bridge to far. Bastogne was where the US eventually stopped them. Plus the Germans ran out of fuel and resources.
hold up hold up hold up now why have i not heard of the gloucester meteor before, they always talk about the nazis jet engine advances but never mentioned that before. and to the genius who says oh how could you not know, show me the link to the documentary that says it.
Because the meteor (during WW2) is not advanced much past an experimental/testing design. It is a perfect representation of Allied equipment development as opposed to German/Axis development. The Allies largely maintained production of equipment that, though not perfect (and known to the Allies at the time), ensured soldiers fought with ample equipment that would be readily available. New designs were tested, tested again, and then tested for production capacity. If a new piece of equipment could not reasonably scale to filling equipment demands, it would not be put into full-scale service. Suffice to say "The rifle of today is deadlier than the one of tomorrow". A new design may be utterly superior to one in-service, but is inferior if it can't be made in such numbers to be equipped by all that are intended to use it. In contrast, the Messerschmitt is widely known because it's production philosophy was almost directly juxtaposed to that of the Allies. The Me262 and it's later variants were regularly lacking in refined materials and components. For most of its service lifetime, engines were difficult to produce en masse as heat-resistant alloys were in shortage. Those engines that were produced still lacked longevity. Despite these shortcomings that limited the mass production (relative to propeller aircraft), the Luftwaffe employed the 262 until the final days of the war, even as the numerical disparity between themselves and the Allied air forces grew greater with each day. In essence, the meteor,P-80, and early Migs are not well known as the Allies did not push these designs forward at the time. When equipping armies of millions, your equipment needs to match those scales. Industrial philosophy matched the deployment strategy of the Allies.
You could at least have mentioned that when Soviet units were standing at the Vistula, their supply lines were nearly overstreched and the troops were exhausted due to the recent offensive having them bring rapidly near to Warsaw.
The SPITFIRE MARK 14 was more effective at stopping the flying bomb than the Gloster Meteor so the commentator is wrong. It had a 5 blade propeller and 2000 hp and was given to pilots transitioning from the Mark 5 version.
Not entirely accurate for example a flight of 9 fighters in 3 vic formations is described as German but the Germans used the finger 4 schwarm, the British used vic formations.
British and churchill straved India during ww2 these Jewish camps were nothing what happened to India during British rule of WW2..Great documentary but people of asian countries lost their lives too.Which these documentaries fails to shed light over them.
The 1943 Bengal famine was due to the cyclone of autumn 1942 which destroyed hundreds of km of Bengal croplands, the Japanese taking all the croplands in Burma and the influx of over a million Burmese refugees fleeing the Japanese. There was no deliberate starvation, and the Indians themselves did nothing about it either.
@@lyndoncmp5751And nothing to say about the confiscation of foodstuffs and the boats needed to transport them? And Indians were obviously in no position to do anything about it. Why? Simple. India was not independent at that time.
I have respect for the man who fought in these wars, allied of course because it is not easy laying down your life day after day and see your fellow man die beside you yet you keep on going. I see our generation today and am not so convinced we could have done it. We go on social media to run our mouths and take side with terrorists groups just because w hate war. I am appalled by those who support hamas and hezbolla only because they hate Jews. I shudder to think what kind of future leaders our generation will make.
Makes me wanna have someone pay to this day some more because of the pain and suffering one human can cause to another human But if we are to b come humane we must endure and live on instead of more pain and suffering to any other fellow being
A world without war . Sure Bible prophecy soon to be fulfilled -- "When there are many nations God of heaven will set up a kingdom and this kingdom will destroy all human governments and will last forever alone. There will be no more wars or practicing military drills. Meek ones will inherit the earth and live forever in exquisite delight. God will wipe every tear from their eyes and no more death or sickess or pain anymore. Former things will pass"

Sentence.
Idc and nobody can tell me otherwise. But French is by far the absolute worst and most ridiculously sounding language alive today. No person ever in history has been intimidated by a Frenchman after they opened their mouth lol.
@CharlieC1889yes, and collaborated with the nazis and did terrible things. And yet, they fought tooth and nail in WWI.
@@staleydu1can’t forget the courage of the French Resistance. Without their intelligence and sabotage, the Allied armies on D-day would’ve had to fight much more panzer divisions and potentially led to the failure of Operation Overlord
@@lokidesigning3273 no argument there
Unless your one of the many enemies Napoleon stomped on lol
TH-cam censorship is ruining its' relevance.
Bad enough here, but on political topics . . .
All these eps are stolen/ ripped from World War II in Colour a doc from like 2008, it's uploaded elsewhere unedited you just gotta look. You don't have to yell in the comments about them blurring it all the time.
Except for several excellent units most were not mechanized. Bicycles and horses. And a depleted air force.
Winston Churchill once remarked failure Israel it is the curse that the ability that continues that counts.
What
Churchill was not one to speak in word salads like that.
If im not wrong the video said that the V1 killed over 20,000 people in the UK, thats not true, it killed around 7000 and injured 17000 more. Its very important to make that distinction as the V1 allegedly killed more people creating them than they did actually kill people. Each V1 pretty much killed only 1 person and injured 2, they were terrible weapons... they were really ineffective. Its bad for the history books if you try to make them seem deadly, they werent.
Utube need to change its scensoreship.. Too much scensorship...
Most German deaths accumulated during the last month of fighting in Germany
Maybe 5 years of war too

It’s rather misleading to suggest that without any of the Western Allies’ knowing he was going to do it, De Gaulle--after Paris had been surrendered by the Germans to the British and Americans--just “waltzed” into the capital and “claimed all the credit while the Allies kept on fighting eastward.” Eisenhower had *insisted* that General De Gaulle and the Free French Army *lead the Allied Forces as they entered and liberated Paris.* This was done for several reasons: 1) to recognise the quite real contributions made by the Free French Army and French Underground Resistance Groups such as the Maquis both before and after D-Day. 2) To raise the spirits of the French nation and help it recover at least some of the sense of pride and good-will toward the United States it had had prior to its fall in 1940. And 3) to take the first steps toward re-establishing France as a major Western Power in the post-War, complicated political situation in Europe.
This old documentary characteristically wants to give *every last shred of credit for Hitler’s defeat in Western Europe to the United States,* largely bc of the ugly, “inconvenient” Truth that the greater part of the Wehrmacht’s strength had *been broken in 1943 on the Eastern Front by the Soviets, at Stalingrad and then at Kursk, after which the Third Reich never really recovered.*
except for home produced T-34s, Soviets were supplied with other allied war-winning material (trucks, aircraft), and their commanders supplied cannon and anti-tank fodder with barrier troops.
Not much change from today then-lesson from history give me a break!
As above correspondent suggested it was a stunning rout, as should Ukraine invasion repulsion be!
Russia was hugely complicit in Nazis earlier successes supplying war materials in return for being left alone for a while. this is the real blurring of history. Lest we forget!.
The Soviet union wasn't fighting Japanese.
There must be somewhere else we can see this uncensored. We watch movies with though fiction or fake it shows more of the reality of death so why not see the reality of truth
Im British, i thank the Soviet union for helping us the most. and the USA for arming us back in 42.
Not forgetting that without us in the UK that the history of WW2 would have ended VERY badly indeed.
Nobody ever mentions The Wereth 11 .The Black soldiers that were also brutally slaughtered. Regardless very interesting documentary.
Yes! Tragic story. Someone did one years ago I think?
Mark Felton made a video
I am curious how the people filmed these scenes back then with this kinds of poor cameras during war. What did they use ? A helmet with the camer? It seemed far fatched. Earlier people did not have sophisticated tolls
Why do they always say attacking Britain, you mean attacking England.
Ulster was attacked, Scotland and Wales too. England took most of it though.
No mention of the British troops in the battle of the Bulge then, suppose those who make the documentary give history a push.
We defeated the wrong enemy - Patton.
Eventually the people malding about blurred images will realize their comment has literally no bearing on what the uploader is gonna do.
Most of the German forces were on the eastern front and Anglo/Americans would not have entered Europe ever if those eastern divisions were in the West. Americans were more likely to retreat than the Germans and only won because of numbers.
V2....3500 miles an hour with a 2000lb warhead? Human beings suck. What have we become?
“The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9 NKJV
Humans are always this way - you need to be born again and serve Christ alone, only then will real change bring true, eternally lasting change and then subsequently rewards. God bless
50:45 nothing was done? We fought a war ffs
They did nothing to stop the extermination
HOW MANY ADS IM 20 MINUTESIN!!! 6 ADS ALREADY
I love watching 5 minutes of history and 10 minutes of commercials. This was unwatchable due to the massive number of commercials. M7ch of the information was wrong anyway.
Americans In Paris has two girls on each shoulder
22:08 The Battle of the Bulge, it was the Germans bridge to far. Bastogne was where the US eventually stopped them. Plus the Germans ran out of fuel and resources.
"The Americans were outraged by what they saw as a blatant meddling in another country's affairs"
LOL 🤣
😂😂😂
hold up hold up hold up now why have i not heard of the gloucester meteor before, they always talk about the nazis jet engine advances but never mentioned that before. and to the genius who says oh how could you not know, show me the link to the documentary that says it.
Because the meteor (during WW2) is not advanced much past an experimental/testing design. It is a perfect representation of Allied equipment development as opposed to German/Axis development.
The Allies largely maintained production of equipment that, though not perfect (and known to the Allies at the time), ensured soldiers fought with ample equipment that would be readily available. New designs were tested, tested again, and then tested for production capacity. If a new piece of equipment could not reasonably scale to filling equipment demands, it would not be put into full-scale service. Suffice to say "The rifle of today is deadlier than the one of tomorrow". A new design may be utterly superior to one in-service, but is inferior if it can't be made in such numbers to be equipped by all that are intended to use it.
In contrast, the Messerschmitt is widely known because it's production philosophy was almost directly juxtaposed to that of the Allies. The Me262 and it's later variants were regularly lacking in refined materials and components. For most of its service lifetime, engines were difficult to produce en masse as heat-resistant alloys were in shortage. Those engines that were produced still lacked longevity. Despite these shortcomings that limited the mass production (relative to propeller aircraft), the Luftwaffe employed the 262 until the final days of the war, even as the numerical disparity between themselves and the Allied air forces grew greater with each day.
In essence, the meteor,P-80, and early Migs are not well known as the Allies did not push these designs forward at the time. When equipping armies of millions, your equipment needs to match those scales. Industrial philosophy matched the deployment strategy of the Allies.
Maybe You tube is run by babies
You could at least have mentioned that when Soviet units were standing at the Vistula, their supply lines were nearly overstreched and the troops were exhausted due to the recent offensive having them bring rapidly near to Warsaw.
So why a radio broadcast to incite insurrection? Soviets also prevented western allies flying in help.
Stalin is so hamble
Three criminals at Yalta !
The SPITFIRE MARK 14 was more effective at stopping the flying bomb than the Gloster Meteor so the commentator is wrong. It had a 5 blade propeller and 2000 hp and was given to pilots transitioning from the Mark 5 version.
The ran out of fuel & coal.
Not entirely accurate for example a flight of 9 fighters in 3 vic formations is described as German but the Germans used the finger 4 schwarm, the British used vic formations.
Only early in the conflict. Britain learned . . .
British and churchill straved India during ww2 these Jewish camps were nothing what happened to India during British rule of WW2..Great documentary but people of asian countries lost their lives too.Which these documentaries fails to shed light over them.
It was not the UK's deliberate Policy
The 1943 Bengal famine was due to the cyclone of autumn 1942 which destroyed hundreds of km of Bengal croplands, the Japanese taking all the croplands in Burma and the influx of over a million Burmese refugees fleeing the Japanese.
There was no deliberate starvation, and the Indians themselves did nothing about it either.
@@chrislambert9435No, no. Not 'deliberate policy'. Just the great PM wanted it.
@@lyndoncmp5751And nothing to say about the confiscation of foodstuffs and the boats needed to transport them? And Indians were obviously in no position to do anything about it. Why? Simple. India was not independent at that time.
America should have taken Russia after they took care of Adolf. Would have saved the world a lot of problems.
No. America is the biggest problem in the world today, spreading lgbt and migrants everywhere
Allied armies were not 'cannon-fodder' as was the Soviet one.
@@grandaddyoe1434 America would have lost a ground war against the soviets in Europe
I have respect for the man who fought in these wars, allied of course because it is not easy laying down your life day after day and see your fellow man die beside you yet you keep on going. I see our generation today and am not so convinced we could have done it. We go on social media to run our mouths and take side with terrorists groups just because w hate war. I am appalled by those who support hamas and hezbolla only because they hate Jews. I shudder to think what kind of future leaders our generation will make.
Makes me wanna have someone pay to this day some more because of the pain and suffering one human can cause to another human
But if we are to b come humane we must endure and live on instead of more pain and suffering to any other fellow being
A world without war .
Sure Bible prophecy soon to be fulfilled --
"When there are many nations God of heaven will set up a kingdom and this kingdom will destroy all human governments and will last forever alone.
There will be no more wars or practicing military drills.
Meek ones will inherit the earth and live forever in exquisite delight.
God will wipe every tear from their eyes and no more death or sickess or pain anymore.
Former things will pass"
🎉
Great documentary, same about the snowflake censoring.
amp channel facing west blew up
No one ever talks about the concentration camps during the anglo-boer war....
There's a reason. British ones were simply to gather-in the enemy sympathisers, the German ones for a different purpose.
