- Tyler residents Loyd George and Bill Halbert, both WWII veterans recall their encounters with the super fast German Messerschmidt Me 262. George and Halbert were both pilots of Martin Marauders near the end of the war.
Imagine only ever knowing planes with rotors and then see this alien looking plane without rotors flying faster than anything you ever saw.
Not only this, THE NOISE
Imagine traveling back in time to WW2 in a modern fighter, I feel like the intimidation factor alone could win a war.
that must've been very scary for veterans.
Patton said, ''they are most advanced people in the Europe.'' and ''we have destroyed the wrong enemy, they were greatest country in Europe''.
@maikcolinnait4641 ...led by the nose by some of the most evil murderous bastards that ever walked the earth
This upcoming decade will be the last for all remaining ww2 veterans. Talk to them, relish their presence on their last few precious moments here on earth. And never forget them.
Model Jet Juggernaut I had the privilege of visiting with a veteran of Patton’s 3rd army when I was 12. He lived in my grandmothers small town where I would spend the summers. He gave me and my father an original photo of Patton pissing in the Rhine. “Piss on the Rhine and piss on the Germans” he had said. He also gave me some swag from the panzer division that had surrendered to them in Czechoslovakia.
I got one of those crazy badass SA knives and a belt buckle. Not that I’m a neo nazi or Wehrmacht fetishist but cool artifacts.
Well said.
My great grandpa was in ww2 and is still arround
It's just that most other big country's knew that having 2 advanced planes isn't as good as 200 reliable ones with old technology.
In my town there is still a Pilot Who flew the Me262 in Kampfgeschwader 54, he's getting 99 years old on 23rd of January. I guess one of the Last pilots of this plane.
Get down to that guys house, ask him to tell you as much as he is prepared to, get it recorded, ask questions. In a short while he will become part of history and you owe it to history to note his experiences, good and bad, of those halcyon days flying the plane that changed the world.
@@bellerophonchallen8861 I already Recorded the audio, but he dont wants that i upload it on the Internet.
@@Ko.Wi. That's ok, and you have to respect that, but in the UK the Imperial War Museum has a vast collection of stories and artefacts from ordinary soldiers from all nations for future researchers. You'll be holding a part of the past for the future and there will be somewhere for it to be kept. Or you might be able to write something yourself at some time, an article or series based around what he tells you.
My grandfather was on board HMS Marlborough at Jutland, feeding the boilers. He told me about the torpedo hitting her, and the sound of German 11" and 12" shells hitting the ship and the water, but died before I was old enough to understand how much deeper I had to go to draws recollections out.
I've got his medals and some shell cases, also some letters from the Battle of the Somme, but they are all just artefacts.
@@bellerophonchallen8861 i Think when he dies ( sorry if that sounds rude). I will upload the interview. He had quiete a lot of medals too, but they were taken from a GI in the 6 days he was POW.
@@Ko.Wi.Yes, a lot of 'trophy gathering' took place. We had a tea chest full of WW1 stuff, a machine gun belt full of bullets, a German picklehauber helmet, medals, caps, a trench knuckleduster knife, a Royal Flying Corps officers stick which I've still got.
Not rude at all to say 'when he dies', it's the only thing in life that is a definite, only in our Twitter snowflake age do people shy away from it.
I would think carefully about uploading the interview for a while. It's a great resource but it's then in the public domain and you won't have any control over who uses it, unless that doesn't bother you. This is something I'm learning at university at the moment, at the grand old age of 60. Guard your intellectual property.
those pilots who flew in WW2 Korea and Vietnam went from the propeller age to the jet age, during their lifetime how lucky they were.
The tragedy is Frank Whittle developed a working jet engine in 1937 but received insufficient support by the British government to incorporate it into a jet fighter. Had there been a bit more foresight by the Air Ministry the Allies would have almost certainly had operational jet fighters for most of WWII.
That must have been cool starting your career going 450 mph ending it going at Mach 2.4
@@catinthehat906 in hindsight it is always easy to say if and then.
@@hanschouwman4536 True, sadly the British Air Ministry was not particularly competent, if Lady Houston hadn't helped privately finance the development of the Spitfire they wouldn't have had that in 1940 either.
@@catinthehat906 that would have been the most stupid thing possible propeller fighters still had a lot to improve thankfully the air ministry made the right choice if what you are saying is even true
every soldier who fights for his country in honor is a hero
It does not matter the country. All were heroes who fought because they had no alternative.
Well said, DV_leaffy.
MEGA no the wermchact (German military) are though
DV_laeffy no truer word were ever written.
You got it 100% correct !
The Nazi party and the German military are not the same. Very few German soldiers in WW2 were in the Nazi party. Most German soldiers, either Luftwaffe, Wehrmacht , etc refused to be part of Nazi party. So yes, Nazis are not heroes, but this does not include all other persons in the German military. The Waffen SS (Nazis) can go burn in hell.

They had a job to do and they did it hard baby
During war no country has the luxury to protect it's youth. So be glad that you cannot benifit from these questionable achievements.
+panzer rjcb198724 In wartime, unlike peacetime, youth is deliberately put in harm's way.
A lot of people lied about their age to enter the war....was not uncommon at the time.
24 what
I understand that the big drawback with the 262 was short engine life, fuel shortages, and lack of trained pilots.
Thrawn Empire nothing would have changed on D-day if the Germans had the 262. I hate how people think that the germans were technologically advanced when the fact is that they weren't. The American p-80 and british meteor were ready to be deployed and we're quite equal, if not superior to the 262.
Franus Kepa u're partly right but according to an American (sry for not being able to remember the name) intelligence report the Germans were ca. 10 year ahead regarding missiles etc.
in addition to that the 262 was at least regarding the pace around 120 or so kph faster
(But I might be a little bit biased)
The ww2 era P-80 and Meteor were both less advanced aircraft then the 262
they had worse performance and were less advanced designs as they were both straight winged for example.
Later versions of the P-80 and Meteor like the P/F-80C and Meteor F.4/F.8 were more comparable to the Me 262 but those did not enter service untill 1947/48.
That the 262 was a better design is not really in doubt and its main problems were caused due to lack of certain materials (such as lack of certain alloys needed to make the engine more reliable) and not due to design shortcommings.
And while the Meteor did see service during ww2
it not really see much air-air combat as it was not allowed to operate over enemy territory untill the last few weeks of the war and by that time there were not many luftwaffe aircraft still operating over the western front.
wcatholic1 and the fact that the didn’t have proper brakes which meant they only had 2 seconds on target.
Good plane advanced but unreliable, too difficult to maintain. Short time on target.
The 262 would have been a big problem if they had been produced in sufficient numbers earlier in the war.
+Geoff Dearth So would the P80 if they had been produced earlier in the war.
R.J. Dunnill and Gloster Meteor
@Aizaz Aziz No, it's not. That's a valid response to a "what-if." As it was, the Me-262 was pushed into service with all kinds of teething problems.
@@ScaryAppul-114
Would be less of one than the P-80, because while the P-80 was definitely superior than the Me-262, the Meteor was only about on par (more reliable, but all of the WWII iterations of the Meteor were slower and more poorly armed compared to the Me-262, let alone the P-80)
@@bkjeong4302 the p-80 and the meteor were inferior to the me-262 only the F-86 were superior to the 262
Among the many aircraft on display at Naval Air Base Pensacola is an ME 262. You can walk right up to it and give it a once-over if you’d like. I did so and the main takeaway for me is just how surprisingly small it is. Far smaller than I had imagined it to be for some reason. Beautiful aircraft, that’s for sure.
Folks from this generation are always so well spoken and articulate with a good sense of humor and humility to boot
What a witness statement, deep respect. I hope no upcoming generation has to face a WW again like all those veterans. While warfare has changed dramatically, there are still soldiers being burned for crazy leaders. Peace to all. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you sir for your service.
The famous test pilot Eric Brown saw a B-26 being shot down by a Me 262. He said the "beautiful B-26" was turned into "a shower of confetti".
Those poor men who died in those missions in the last weeks of the war.
@Elvira Dela Cruz Even worse was Anthony Marchionne who was killed in a B-32 on a photo recon mission by Japanese fighter aircraft days after the Japanese announced their surrender. Imagine the joy of his family learning of the Japanese surrender and then learning their son died anyway.
That war doomed Europe. Ireland will be Irish in name only in not too many decades, even if it's just entered the blender.
@@nowaskmehow It was planned that way. War is the middle east too was planned to flood immigrants into Europe.
Germany had lost the war in mid-1944 thanks to D-Day and Bagration. Japan had lost any chance of winning the war when US shipyards started pumping out more ships and aircraft than the Japanese Navy had ever had.
All the deaths - Allied and Axis - after those turning points were the result of the delusional arrogance and bloodthirstiness of the Axis leaders who refused to face reality, and instead kept the killing going.
Thank you for your service, sacrifice and courage for freedom 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
FREEDOM??? You are blind; look around you.
@@BasementEngineer much more freedom then Adolf would of you wang
And ur weird and crazy 😂
WW2 18 yr olds fought in a massive war...today 18 yr olds whine about thier feelings being hurt...is it just me ooooorr....?
So you think 18 year olds didn't have feelings back then or what
@Old Corps Marine Considering the amount of homless veterans in the US, I'd whine to cope instead of getting my life ruined by a system that don't take care of their soldiers.
True
Modern 18 year olds the way they are because of their parents.
Gen X-ers and older Millennials gave their kids unlimited Twitter access as toddlers a decade ago, and this is the result.
as a german that makes me so proud
The average age of an American bomber pilot in WW2 was 21 years old, look around the room you're in and look at a 21 year old and think "that's who's in charge and flying the plane", pretty scary thought.
I think that but they were not as ignorant back then
NVG is have to disagree with that
There was patriotism and a sense of duty and belief for God and Country.
@@drkvenger
Not really, that "sense of patriotism" lasted a little while after Pearl Harbor but the fact is that by the end of the war the math worked out that 2/3 of all the troops that served in WW2 were drafted.
That same math shows that 2/3 of all the troops that served in Vietnam volunteered despite the narrative that most of the guys who were in Vietnam were hippies that were drug off to the war by their hair kicking and screaming.
The same math shows that 100% of all the troops that have fought in the War on Terror have been volunteers, so remember that the next time you hear someone telling a veteran of late how some other group is "America's greatest generation".
@DukeCraig People enlist today as a career choice, in a an economy where higher-ed is ever more expensive and good kobs are scarce. Last time people volunteered to war out of patriotic duty was circa 2005.
My father was in the 1st Army attached to a light anti aircraft unit. While in a convoy a ME262 flew over the road and dropped a 500 lb bomb onto the road a few yards away from my father. The half tracks that had mounted quad .50 cal machine guns could not track the jet. Fortunately, the bomb was a dud.
Sweet that would be awesome to do, thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for your service 🙏🏻
Yes indeed, bombing civilians from 20,000 feet, real "heroes".
Good work! Be proud, Must have been a steep learning curve being only 18 or so at the time. Must have been a scary encounter.
Thank you brave men for your service. You guys are true heroes
So many respect soldier! Greetings from Düsseldorf/Germany ❤
I wish I could shake hands with all these fine gentlemen veterans and say thank you.
„thank you?“ for what? For doing a war-criminal? Just that was it: killing as many german old men , german women and children as possible in the cities! That killing didnˋt make the wwII one second shorter!
@@wolf-6922 highlight old men, women and children, because Adolf made those people fight, your stupid, just as stupid as water
@@Soyjakgamingbutawesome an Idiot anders like that!
“I found myself out in the middle of the south Atlantic, and I thought ‘I’ve never been outa reg county before!” Man, to think that without nuclear weapons mass mobilization would be such a present factor in our minds leading to all sorts of moments like this; Just young men from the middle of nowhere going where no human in any earlier part of history could dream of going, to unleash such a magnitude of destruction from the heavens above
Thank god for men like this!
I salute you Sir. Respect
The “WTF” factor of seeing something with no propellers doing 100 miles an hour faster than you must have been absolutely horrifying
Giving an 18 year a fighter jet crew for war just blows my mind
My favorite WW2 aircraft: ME 262, P51 Mustang and the A6M Zero
No spitfire?
There's a Spitfire. I'm just not included it since most of my time was spent on these three planes
Teitoku Eugeo screw mustang
I like zero but 262 is boss
What a legend
Brave men.
Very honest man to say that the germans were technological more advanced at the time.
They weren't.
Nathan Peterson really? It's a widely accepted fact. Even this war veteran says it, altough only speaking about aircraft technology. And I want to stress here that I don't support nazi's or their ideology, if that's where you are after.
Tactically, sure. But technologically, being the first to get something into service doesn't make them advanced.
Nathan Peterson just so we are on the same page about the word
Technology:
the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.
*machinery and devices developed from scientific knowledge.
*the branch of knowledge dealing with engineering or applied sciences.
@@peterson7082 you've got it backwards
The 109 e3 was better than the spitfire in every way except turn time
The tiger was impenetrable from the front by a Sherman
The U Boat was invincible early in the war
The me163 and me262 were near untouchable by allied prop planes
“What was that? What the hell was that? It went by like we were standing still”
This dude served in 3 of the bloodiest wars in American history. What a badass.
That second guy was so cool
Respect to the boys who fought the Me 262
Yes they were real "heroes"! Bombing civilians from 20,000 feet.
Piloting a bomber for 42 missions with a crew of 5 in WWII at 18 years old. Damn impressive!
Remember this because everyone grows at different rates, has different skills which some keep, others lose it. YOU ARE NEVER TOO YOUNG OR TOO OLD.
These days we are so accustomed to the sound of a jet engine. But back then it must have been absolutely terrifying to hear what might as well have been a ufo rip by at 600 mph with cannons tearing your friends to pieces.
Das ist sehr interessant.
Real heroes
👍good job helping us win the war not being sarcastic
my dad was the managar of pounds field airport for years
Three wars!? Shit dude what a badass!
It would have been like seeing a UFO , no props and going 600 + mph , passing you like you were standing still , the fear of seeing a Luftwaffe plane doing that would have been enough to bring fear , and then it fires on you , it would have been like riding a bicycle and a car passes you for the first time !
Germany was unbelievably far more advanced than the rest of the world 😯
Eh, not really. They got jets into combat faster than anyone else, but the British were pretty close behind with the Gloster Meteor. The British also invented active sonar and built the first radar early-warning system, and were the first to miniaturise radar enough for it to be placed on a ship as small as a destroyer.
The Americans developed gyroscopically stabilised guns for tanks that allowed them to fire accurately while moving, too.
But the single most advanced piece of technology of WWII was the nuclear bomb, which was impossible for the Germans to make because they dismissed it as ‘Jewish science’!
Watching that bird of prey flying too fast toward Allied bomber formations meant like dancing with the devil: nasty business!!
Crazy to think how young these guys were, but war brings out the best in people. Sadly, it does so by putting them in the most horrific situations…
Great stuff. Anyone out there with access to a veteran please get a camera on them and get them talking. Think of the stories and knowledge that's already been lost and lets not let it happen anymore.
It must have looked otherworldly.

What a stupid and disgusting comment.

Messed up parents,messed up
kids is usually true,but not all the time
This society today is $hit by comparison. Fat, stupid kids staring at their phones...
Sir Frank Whittle who co designed the first jet engine , went to Churchill during 1942 and said " i have an engine with no props and one moving part , the Gremans are more advanced than i , we need this engine !" Churchill said " we have spitfires with Merlin V12 s what can beat that ?" He wes lucky we won , if the Germans had got a fly shit closer earlier , the ME262 would have destroyed us . And there would have been Bombers with 4 or 6 jet engines from Germany .

0:20 The man was talking about a Martin Marauder. Why insert a shot of a four-enginned bomber?
Even American vets admit the Germans were far more advanced than anyone else while fighting 2 fronts.
3 if you count africa as its own front
I would respectfully disagree with them, to be honest. Germany had jets, but the British had their own very soon afterwards. And the most technologically advanced weapon of the war was the nuclear bomb, which the Nazis never got close to finishing due to the belief that it was ‘Jewish science’.
Grandes heróis veteranos Americanos e soviéticos e outros, são todos corajosos e mereçiam estátuas.

They only shot the ME 262 down when it took off or when it was landing.........
The b26 has defensive gunners.
4 Tonnes of Fury Yes, but no Me 262 was ever shot down during combat, much less by a bomber's gunners.
Except that the man just stated that they did.
You don't know what the hell you're talking about. Mustangs and Thunderbolts often nailed them. As a matter of fact it was a Spitfire that shot down the first 262 lost in combat. Even Chuck Yeager got himself a 262. Galland got shot by a P-47 while trying to land his jet. Yeah...they were shot down.
Some P-51 shot them while they were turning the p-51 out turned the 262
I love these WWII heroes...the American aircraft were designed for self defence and carried 4000lbs of bombs. The Avro Lancaster carried an average bomb-load of 12,000lbs. Ultimately the Lancaster carried the Grand Slam weighing 22,000lbs.
Those early American jets would have been German had the war gone longer.
We had bombed a ammunition depot
Sure a ammunition depot :D

@@daveflow3865 yeah, but unfortunately handicapped kids wouldn't be around a school, but more likely in a concentration camp..
But I like that as a mind picture :D
I would say to the end of the war was the ammunition rare and most likely hidden in a cellar from a family house. European houses are close together.. a other fact is that the frontline was so fast moving that information where already old when the bomber squad receives the order..
He is just thinking that he has bombed a Depot, nobody knows
He held up that photo of his crew. They are children! They would have been eating Tide pods and making dumbass dances on TikTok if they were that age today.
Off topic but, inagine being one of the first allied guys to breach a Ho 229 facility. The utter shock as to what the Germans were cooking up and relief that they never got to use it.
Americans also had flying wings. It was no shock to find one in enemy territory
The first allied guys there would likely have had very little idea what they were looking at in terms of potential performance.
I have profound respect for these men who were real alpha males at eighteen years old. Not like the young beta males that make up our society now. Thank You Sir for your service.
if you talk about alpha or beta shit i lose all respect for you and any of your fucking degenerate comments
Way sharper than Biden, these gentlemen.

“...we shot two of them down.” mmm...possibly. Shooting one 262 down from B-26s would have been quite a feat, but two? I have no doubt the gentleman believes his unit did it, but is it confirmed by German records of the action?

There is space exploration. Now we can land stuff on Mars and Venus or launch satellites far into the solar system (and take photos of black holes).
Don't forget about the Tuskegee pilots, they also took down a few of the me 262s.

It is even worse ! By the huge number of killed they killed some geniuses that could contribute for mankind !
My grandpa, a navy pilot in WW2, always used to talk about how foolish the German pilots were. My grandpa told me countless stories about the foolish German pilots getting their instruments mixed up and downing themselves into the sea. Once that happens all it would take were a few strafes on the sinking plane to kill the German pilot.
Looking at your comments you really seem to enjoy people dying. If your granddad was in the navy, where did he fight the germans? The USN fighters barely had any contact with germanys fighters.

No - B-26 was not a "saturation" bomber like the B-17. It was a light bomber used for more pinpoint attacks.
