I found a dog tag of a Mr Kenneth McKnight who was thankfully still with us in 2004 in a field in chadelsworth England while metal detecting who was from orange county Massachusetts he was in this regiment i was so happy to return his dog tag to him after all the years and his family were extremely grateful and sent me information that i was able to piece together why this dog tag was found in the field so far away from his home in America sadly he passed away a few years later Mr Mac Knight i always think about you and what you went through in the war and i was so happy and proud that i was able to return such a piece of your personally possession to you and learn about what you went through from your family rest in piece you will always be remembered by me
But how did the tag end up there?
Really? Just look at your history books
US paratroopers with English accents is a nice touch!
One's from Birmingham.... Alabama 🤔🤭
The Widomakers 2/502 101stAirborne Div was my first duty assignment back in the 70's good times
6:50 I can't believe that Dude pressed the end of the Barrel of His Carbine into the ground to get up.
He uses it as a cane.
I was C/502 ABG 61-63 Always have my challenge coin ready.
Any movie that starts with a parachute company landing definitely has potential!
Now that you mention it, it does yes!
Already watching this video long time ago …? Thanks for sharing.(RCL Veterans)🇺🇸🇨🇦🇫🇷🇦🇺🇹🇼
at 4:20, the American soldier is carrying an MP 40. At 5:09, a paratrooper from 101st is talking to another trooper from the 82nd.
Many of the paratroopers lost equipment so they could have captured an mp40 also the 101st airborne division got scattered all across Normandy so they could have landed in an 82nd drop zone
Yes they did drop in 82nds drop zone by accident! Drops went badly.
My grandpa was in the 82nd as a medic with captains rank. Was in dday, Market Garden, and Battle of The Bulge where he was wounded!
He wasn't to talkative about his rough experiences, but he did carry a 30. Cal. Carbine.
@@hugbug4408 How does that work? A squad consists of 10 men, commanded by a Lieutenant. Who is he taking orders from?
@@ronlackey2689Incorrect, a squad is 10 soldiers and is lead by a Staff Sergeant or a Sergeant, a platoon is commanded by a Lieutenant, a Captain would be a Company Commanding Officer so what that guy said still makes no sense... I dont see why they'd send senior medical personel into combat
Nicely done, you can tell they are enthusiasts as most of the lads are a bit older than they would have been. Or if you like not that many in one small group.
or even speaking with a brummie accent
Nice trailer, only detail I spotted was the soldier who used his rifle to help him stand,. Nose of the rifle was in the dirt, would have been roasted for that...
As an old us airborn veteran said when you dont hear the machineguns enemy youre gone
Or give thanks when you still hear the sound of the enemys machinegun
Looks accurate, great to see a movie about WW2 as there have not been many new ones recently. I have always respected the airborne troops because of the extra guts they would need jumping out of a plane with flak coming at them, their lack of heavy weapon support and the threat of landing in the wrong drop zones just as the US did in Normandy, drowning in the fields flooded by the Germans and the British did at Arnhem. St. Mere Eglise, Pegasus Bridge and Bastogne are great examples of airborne engagements and are of great interest to me in WW2. "Band of Brothers" my favourite ever tv programme and good to see that film makers are still interested in the subject instead of endless sequels and super hero movies. About time Spielberg remade "Battle of the Bulge "after the great job he did with SPR.
101st didnt put their combat bandage on their helmet in normandy until market garden . also the accuracy of german side is horrendously wrong in many ways uniform and equipment. But its a good film that they made
I especially loved how realistic it was when the Paratroops advanced across an OPEN field, while the Germans stood around smoking without having any sentries. SO realistic
The 101 Airborne Museum at Ft Campbell is a must attend visit.
That map satchel would drive me nuts flapping around
All I can say is I would not limit my ability to see if I was carrying a thompson across a field with looking through a tiny guns sight as this showed
Generally, nicely done. At the beginning the troopers crossing the field are identified as "82nd Airborne" but are wearing 101st Airborne shoulder patches. We have an American carrying an MP40 and another carrying a No. 4 MKI Enfield. Certainly possible...not likely at all. American paratroopers so armed would not have had a source of supply of 9mm or .303 British ammunition.
Not to mention the bloke carrying the Thompson initially. If you fired a Thompson with it up that high, a busted nose, cheekbone etc would be a likely result. (along with a possible jam)
A lot of paratroopers lost there weapon on the drop on d day so it is possible they got one off a German. But yeah would of been short term.
For anyone interested, get the book Currahee by Donald Burkett. Airborne jump into Normandy before the big invasion.
My dad was airborne he was 15 years old ❤❤❤❤
Nice work guys!
Yes, the actors in the clip were a bit older than the soldiers who fought in World War II, particularly airborne troops. Not sure why they attacked the German outpost the way they did, coming at it through an open field. Also, their platoon (?) leader was a major. Usually, it would be a young second or even first lieutenant, but it's certainly possible that a major would be in charge, particularly if he was a replacement for fallen officers. Still, a good effort to be authentic.
Excelente.
Andy Gallegos Albuquerque New Mexico...101st Airborne Division D day 5 June 1944.RIP...
Super court métrage, It is very good clip. Thank you guys.
I could never quite figure out why anyone would jump out of a perfectly good airplane.
A Bridge too far. Sean Connery. 👍
As a veteran of the 101st (1982 - 1985), I'd rather jump out of the USAF C130s than try to land in one.
The Thompson would work much better if the bolt was cocked.
The first aid kit on the helmet wasnt a thing until market garden i believe. I still really enjoyed this though as it was purely amazing and nearly everything was correct which is what you dont see in modern war movies. Very very well done!
Ni no no
Lo quiero en español
Costumes très bien ...belle approche les vétérans....j'ai aimé les couleurs ! 😉
did i see a no4 amongst the small arms, if so ?
Parachute design of the UK required only hitting one central release mechanism!
The US lost a lot of men because they didn't adopt the British release mechanism. They dropded into water and couldn't get out of their harness.
That MP-40 does sting a bit in the eyes tho
No, just saw it's a Greasegun! No problem then!
Their shoulder patches indicate both 82nd and 101st airborne.
Were the two divisions ever dropped close enough to each other for that to happen even if both units were widely scattered?
Yes, they were both all over and often patched together groups included both.
Yes, but not intentionally. The transport pilots were unprepared for the amount of AA fire. They dropped them, sometimes too fast and other times too low. Sometimes both.
At Market Garden, they did much better.
yes
Yeah it did happen there is also a clip of t band of brothers which is a group of 101st airborne people and they met a group of 82nd qirborne
just want to watch the movie, where is it
Por favor completa la película gracias
Next part
2:17 thats a MP 40 german submachinegun why ?
First seen at 1:36 - it was a very good weapon and commonly picked up by allied troops to use, although I doubt this would have been the case on the pre-D day airborne drops detailed in this film.
One of the American is carrying the “Grease Gun”. Judging by the size of the ejection port and cover this is the M3A1 version. As far as historical accuracy, I do not believe the A1 version of the M3 was available during the timeframe being portrayed here. The M3A1 did not have a separate charging handle. It had an extended ejection port and a finger slot in the bolt for the soldier to be able to insert a finger and pull the bolt to the firing position.
@@captainfrank01 Most Airborne landed without their weapons. Maybe he cut a Krauts throat and took his weapon!
Real soldiers of any type do not suspend their grenades from their harness by the grenade pins. Why do movies keep doing this? Grenades were kept in pockets or pouches, and later - my era- in grenade specific holders on either side of your ammo pouch.
Nobody carried, even a Thompson, at the eye-level position in those days, especially in an open field. That is a new tactic, rather stupid as far as my view. But, as a gun/military nut, I enjoyed the video as much as for the old equipment as anything. To further explain my disdain for the ready position, I've used my Mi carbine enough that I can fire effective from the hip while having both eyes unobstructed checking out the distance. You don't WANT a part of your weapon blocking ANY view. In other words, decent training in firing your weapon for all positions. ...And if your weapon is a Thompson, you are gonna hose any possible target anyway!
cigarettes such as shown in this film never exist during WWII, it looks like Marlboro filters
I think that the Israelis first developed this technique. .
@@cbm2156 The guy carrying the thompson was carrying it above eye level. He was looking into the rear of the receiver. Also a 1sg does not hump a bazooka.
Yeah that is a nee technique primarily used by SWAT teams and police units. I am with you. It think it is a pretty stupid way to carry because it blocks a lot of your view. May be ok in close quarters but certainly not in the open field. One of the Americans was also carrying an M3A1. A “Grease Gun” with the “finger hole” bolt and extended dust cover. These were not yet developed and fielded in time for D Day.
I was a Territorial Army infantryman in England, 1977, when we used the SLR 7.62 mm, and was battalion rifle champion aged 19. ...... I grew up on a country estate using shotguns, both on rough and driven shooting, so I was used to holding the weapon low, swinging it swiftly into the shoulder, and firing from a well-balanced stance. ...... To hold any weapon to the shoulder for any length of time, particularly while moving, causes strain, and the butt will tend to drop, meaning that any shot made will tend to be awkward.
Our platoon commander was an urban penpusher by trade, and useless at commanding infantry. ...... I come from a service family of army and naval officers, and had been his radio operator, so I saw at first hand his limitations. ...... On an advance to contact, I was looking at the ground, deciding what orders I would give if an enemy opened up at us from any point. ...... When we were fired on, the officer was utterly clueless, and radioing the company commander for instructions. ...... I take the view that it is better to make a fast decision, and be wrong, and learn something, than make no decision, and learn nothing. ...... In war, seconds count, and dithering can be fatal. ...... I was unimpressed.
Another time, we were on a firing range with pop-up man-size electric targets. ...... One had to walk through thick bushes, targets would pop-up, and I was hitting them fine using my normal technique. ...... The officer arrived, shouted at me for NOT having the butt always in my shoulder, and my hits dropped. ....... A few more similar incidents, including the rigidly wooden thinking of the dead man's shoes hierarchy, and we parted company.
To me it is CommonZense to have part-time soldiers of the highest quality, able to think for themselves, with most able to step up one or two ranks on mobilisation. ...... However, egalitarian political considerations meant that even in a small unit of 40 men in a city of 250,000, some very low quality soldiers were recruited. ...... The type of soldier who has a jam in his SLR on the range, and turns towards the sergeant, saying 'My gun's jammed!' with the muzzle pointed directly towards the sergeant's stomach.
Dobra robota.
GUT !!!!
1:41 Too early as to grab a MP40 from a fallen German soldier, I guess.
💪🇺🇸👍👏
Por favor en español gracias Perú quiero ver todo asta el final gracias cuydate mucho saludos fuerzas
Ευχαριστώ για τα σχόλια
Creo que son de la compania easy
why move across an open field instead of hugging the hedges?
CAMERA ANGLES
I was about to say the same. Nice movie, anyway. Note: soldiers are taught to be wary of moving slowly across wide open spaces- in fact, they are taught to run of move fast across wide open fields.
Mon grand père était "airborne""...................mais était un gamin de 20 ans..........
Wow! I bet he had some stories to tell. You must be really proud.
第101米空挺。
Did I see that trooper lean on this rifle barrel down to stand up? Also the soldiers look really old - not kids like they were.
did the english or amarican copy the mp 40 from the germans
alot of gear was lost in the parachute jump and replacement equipment was scavenged among the dead
The english kind of copied the MP40 with the Sten gun, the English liked how the stamped steel construction of the mp40 brought down production costs. The only issue was that, with the Mp40, the magazine hindered use while in the prone position, so the English moved the magazine on the Sten gun to the side rather than the bottom
@@listerdtype1901 The Sten was a cobbled up SMG because the Brits had nothing like the fantastic MP 40 and although it looked like a piece of crap there were a terrible number of German lads who died laughing at it.
Why do some of these 82nd and 101st boys have British accents?
Since when do US paratroopers carry my 40’s
why would that 2nd. American soldier be carrying a "Schmeisser" German machine gun?
My grandpa was in ww2 he kild 12 men and freed 2 prisoners in the 2 years he fougt he still wakes up shouting they are coming load the mg
Ps ha was in frikorps Danmark a danish ss division
My mothers father was an waffen ss kia in battle of Kursk. He was a major. Her uncle was an fw190 pilot mia in Italy!
Now my pa's pa was in the 82nd airborne with capt.s rank and a medic. He carried a 30.cal. carbine.
He was in dday, Market garden , wounded in The Battle of The Bulge!
He didn't say too much of his horrible experiences until he was ready to; that would be awhile; a great while; about a year!
The 101st airbone is very overrated. I wish someone made a list of ww2 movies featuring the 82nd, since the 82nd pretty much was the pioneer of ww2 for the US army in Sicily. People just look up to much for the 101st.
Sounds like you miss Bragg. As a veteran of the 101st (1982 - 1985), how can anyone who humped a ruck and weapon for this country be overrated? Bridge Too Far, Pvt Ryan and Longest Day features the All American diviison.
Too many 1st Sargeant
このようとてもいいと思います
突っこみどころ満載。年寄りの降下部隊
안녕하세요! 반갑습니다! 좋아요! GOOD!!!
The way they moved, carried themselves, the weapons weren’t very soldierly. Band of Brothers portrayed soldiers way better.
Battle dress very good Tommy Gun good as for the other weapons a grease gun not sure about that in the 506 101st. All a-bit old too Hahaha! British accents give it away 🤭 but WELL DONE
Tommy gun used here was a pre war commercial model. By 1944 they were using cheaper & simpler military model. Easy to tell because the bolt was on the side on the military model, not the top.
Well-fed middle aged reenactor chaps with British accents portraying US airborne. Umm, okay. But still worth watching for the gear.
1 MP40 dans les mains d'un GI parachuté le jour même, n'importe quoi!
Por favor en español está muy lindo gracias

Shame about the accents.....
