    On June 13th, 1944, in the French town of Villers-Bocage, south of Normandy hidden in the bushes a beast stalks its prey. A Tiger tank of the 2nd Company of the 101st SS Heavy Panzer Battalion. Standing atop its cupola is the most decorated German Panzer ace in history; Lieutenant Michael Wittmann aka The Black Baron. A reckless attack or a daring tank battle. Wittman's actions at Villers Bocage became disputed and legendary. There are many sources that conflict for this story but we tried to pull together a narrative from the many sources that are out there. Any errors are our own.

      Tigers were retarded machines.
      Every other nation had comparable prototypes that were in many ways, better than the Tiger.
      The problem was, no one was braindead enough to interrupt their supply lines to start filling it with propaganda tanks.

    A video about Otto Carius and the first documented shooting down of a plane with a tank would be good to see. Carius leveled the tank and his gunner shot down the plane with the main gun. That was in Russia in 1943 I think. Carius died in 2014 at the age of over ninety. He had a pharmacy called Tiger pharmacy and in it he had a lot of models of Tigers, Panthers and Tank Destroyers. He started out as a loader in a Panzer 38 and worked his way up to commander. He was one of the first to be fitted with the Tiger. At the end of the war he commanded a Jagdtiger.Carius had notable success as a Tiger tank commander

To say something that completely conflicts with the Nazi doctrine out loud no doubt, you found a stool & a piano wire noose or a firing squad kit soon after said comment!!! Wittman was an animal but Kurt I believe was on a level no other tanker in nazi ranks possessed & they had a lot of good ones!!!! But the Firefly was the tank that Expelled Wittman & his crew!!! All these comment Colonels act like they had no shot, that 17 pounder was nasty!!! Tiger still had advantage but it was very small very small, The firefly could engage a lot farther off & actually produce desired results, still when USA & Allies first got into the European theathre they found out that their soldiers , command structure were battle tested from Eastern Front & they were truly formidable opponent!!! Their tanks were LIGHT YEARS BETTER THAN OURS WHEN WE landed on June 6th!!!the MG 42 US soldiers said just 2-3 of those nests would terrify the rank & file troops approaching as much as the Tigers & panther tanks, it’s still considered the best light machine gun & multiple countries still have in service & their current machine gun is some kind of variant/copy , it spit out twice as fast as the US machine guns!!! I’m a SIE HARD AMERICAN PATRIOT, we took our lumps, losses, wore initial shock off, organized & pushed foreword with the famous American doctrine producing everything on a level & scale that no other country could dream of producing, we done that & leans lease thousands of trucks planes, food, ammunition to The soviets, but IMO the true unsung hero is our RESILLIANT-TOUGH MINDED WOMEN, it was well over 60% of women from age 18-50 that worked our factories producing our ammunition building our aircraft, our battleships etc & they fucking done it well!!!

This is something I've noticed long ago, around the time "God's Rambo and his Ghost Camaro" was released. You guys know that with history, having not been here, having often incomplete knowledge about the event, some details lost to bias, propaganda and time itself, and you always point out there may be mistakes, there may be lack of details, something may have been overlooked. You truly do your best work with those videos!
    Keep it up, you've easily become my favourite history channel, and it seems it will stay that way!
