Ich werde Euch nie vergessen. Mein Grossvater fiel am 22.12.44 an der Westfront😔

[@asullivan4047]

Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job making it easier for viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Rough combat operations on both sides. Excellent propaganda filming for viewers in Berlin to appreciate the German armies missions. Special thanks to the German armies for making this documentary possible!!!

The second clip (from 2'50'' to 5'06'') shows the german atempt to counterstrike the US forces near Lunéville, in Lorraine, in september 1944. These Panther, Panzer IV and Armoured anti aircraft guns are part of the newly created Panzerbrigades 111 or 113. The remains of the 15th Panzergrenadier Division, which had been transfered from Italy in July, took also part in the battle of Lunéville. The 150mm sFH18 150mm howitzer we can see in the clip could be part of this division. Both Panzerbrigades were anihilated some days later near Arracourt by a Combat command of the 4th US Armored Division. Later, the remains of the 15th PzG Division defended the forest of Parroy against the 79th USID and suffered heavy casualties.

German soldiers had full incentive to join up. It was an honor to serve and the pay was good.

If you understand the speaker, you can see the first battle with the attacking T-34 is pure fake with snipped in older pictures from Training grounds. Still informative

Hitler did fight as a lance corporal in WW1. He was wounded in action by a gas attack in 1918 and banned the Wehrmacht from using gas in ww2, yet he would employ zyklon b to systematically kill millions of innocent lives. Hypocrisy at the ultimate level.

Stalin knew better! Without "Lend Lease" the Soviets wouldn't have had the weapons they needed without the help of the US or the logistics that the British made available.
