    I dont know if you’re still working on your channel, but I would loce for you to make a battle about vietnam. I really want to understand how the front lines worked in that war as it seems very complicated

    Good video, just what I was looking for.The attack was better planned than I thought, Jerry were well dug in on that front.

    This animated video is just wonderful! I've been visiting the Somme battlefields for c30 years, gradually forming an imperfect understanding of this complex campaign....so am seriously delighted to find this excellent animated video which helps me to better visualise and understand the overall progress of the battle. I'm sure I'll be returning to rewatch and further absorb this excellent work many, many times. Congratulations snd much thanks for the skill and dedication in creating this impressive work. Hugely appreciated!👏👏👏

    This is probably my 9th time watching this. This is a fantastic video and if'n I wasn't so poor...... I'd gladly donate to have more of these made. Alas, my generation is a rare one. We're doing worse than our parents generation. I'm that poor dude you see in winter months riding to work on a scooter. I bundle up like Ralphies little bother in X-mas Story.

      Hi there! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
      Although times are tough, you are not alone. We won't know when it will come, but things turn for the better.
      It might be a small comfort to know that people in previous generations went through a lot worse and got out the other end.
      These videos take a lot of time to make, hopefully I'll have some free time to post something.
      Best wishes,
      Halla.

    reg. the fields of cruelty at Verdun, Flandres, Ypers, Somme aso., where french & english soldiers were slaughtered by her commanders, I only can say: "R.I.P. = rest in pieces"............
