I prefer diaries over memoirs as I've said before. They are written at the time of the combat and that doesn't give the writer time to clean up their actual feelings about their commanders, politicians, enemies and allies. Memoirs also aren't based on fresh memories but can be written years later and influenced by post war propaganda. Both are good though and provide valuable information. This diary reading is very good..

I like to follow the progress of the unit on a map. I had a little more luck tracking the progress of the unit. From Opochka they basically head northeast, found the Lovat river, Kholm, and then unexplainably, Velikiye Luki far to the south. Heading towards Moscow but never making it.

Schnell schnell raus raus.no no no don't speak German, speak ENGLISH!!! Speak English not German.SPEAK ENGLISH!!!! Don't speak German my German friend.YOU ARE GOING To SPEAK ENGLISH!
Why are all of your videos obviously anti-German morale? I'm sure there are more diaries out there other than late-stage Eastern Front battles. I've seen this channel uploading demoralizing titles even during the opening stages of Barbarossa which really shows some sort of underlying bias going on with the uploader.
As a rule.....we don't like nazis. The mental rot necessary to believe that "they were just German soldiers doing their duty" is for the REALLY weak minded. I was a soldier once too. I was responsible for EVERYTHING my side did, good and bad.
@@briansmith2125 nonsense, most German solders were ordinary people , good solders... from all over Europe , it was the most diverse army on the planet at the time. the fact you said its mental rot and weak minded to believe anything other than your opinion is laughable , trying to speak from a place of authority like you did "i was a soldier so i know better" is pathetic and whats even more pathetic is the fact your statement says you know absolutely f**k all about the German army the eastern front or ww2 for that matter......and whos "we" , you said "as a rule WE dont like nazis" ..... who are u to put rules on people you Dont know , again someone like you talking about weak minds and mental rot is hilariously ignorant , i suggest you pick up a few books and educate yourself on the topic properly before coming on here and looking like a fool mate , or dont wtf cares !!!

They are diaries. They are only described as memoirs
Really loving these first hand accounts.
Love your reporting- thank you excellent work
@1:00 some ironic forshadowing as the horse shoe is hung upside down, and that means the luck runs out.
Pointing down means good luck flows out and around the vehicle
Different strokes for different volks
@@Pyjamarama11 - Yeah nobody says it 'means' that but that's a nice take.
Fabulous pics.
I can not imagine the stench of 800 bodies specially during the summer.
Imagine all the flies
I was there for the morgues in Iraq who had shut their coolers off. The stench was one thing, the noise was the REAL bad part.
@briansmith2125 what type of noise?

Fortunately!

Never blindly follow gov and their lies
Never think of after the battle, their leaders having to go through the deads pockets to retrieve the things they have kept to send back to their wives, parents, or loved ones along with the letters they send.
Great pictures …
I do feel for these men
Repeated marching, lack of sleep, poor diet - and even before autumn rains and winter snow. The end was inevitable.
Not forgetting the drugs (speed ampthet) to keep them going. This is always overlooked.

1:05. Look at the lucky Horse shoe on the front of infantry carrier. 😁
Upside down = out of luck
maybe i didn´t hear it: what was the unit ?

Me too. Soo much
An early display of sheer amount of Soviet's army & endless waves of men. 😮

4:59...Russian anti tank rifle .. wonder if the Germans used it
Cold nights in July. Drrr
2:12 Stalins son?
The Germans were all heroes
They recognized the dangers of communism before anyone in the Western World did.
lol, the depravity if such stupid comment.
They were swines!
Well.... they are all heroes. War sucks on both sides of the front.
How did things end up for them?

They invaded another country shouldn't expect any respite.
I rather look at it as if they were invading the nether regions of hell..
