It`s sad to see a thatched roof house burning there. It reminds me of a story that my maternal grandfather told , he was stationed in Hungary as a soldier in the German Wehrmacht and was always treated kindly and kindly by the local population. Some soldiers didn`t treat people so well, they would be thrown out of their beds. And he had also personally seen at hatched roof house being set on fire. He found that very bad. Unfortunately my other grandfather died at the battle of Stalingrad (Russia). We were never able to get to know him. An interesting collection of pictures of WWII. RIP to all soldiers no matter which nation was killed in this senseless war.🙏❤
I found the same concerns when i compare marriage photos then and nowadays.. all woman seemed innocent then compared to present ones. May be the reasons Is purity that is no more a must for marriage of women.
You can look at it politically however you like, but back then the best part of the population of Germany, Russia, England and France bled to death in the battles and carpet bombings of WWII. If we could look back on history from 1945 WITH these people, Western/Christian civilization in Europe would not be doomed. We miss these men and women today. As far as the future of Europe is concerned, that was Hitler's greatest crime.
true enough but the war was started by those whose only intention was to destroy western Christian civilization under the guise of trying to save it. The Christian West lost the war but Israel won it !!!
Another thing that's almost as sad as the one you mentioned is the US gaining vast influence over a destroyed Europe and hence the start of world dominance with its unforgiving consequences.
My Opa was in the 8th Panzer Division. Panzerjager Abt 43 Company 1. He was one of the original members when it went into France. He stayed in the same unit until they surrendered in Brno 1945. His nickname was the Der Alter Hase” “The old hare”
These pictures always give me chills but they are so interesting. It's hard to believe sometimes but these were real people, living a real life trying to provide for their families, find work, etc. And then they are caught up in this unbelievably immense war, many of them losing their lives. I also like them because I try to decipher the medals, weapons, etc.

One of my uncles fought in the European theatre. He liberated one of the concentration camps. When we were kids, he would show us the full uniform he got off of a dead German soldier. In the pocket was a roll of film. When he got back to the states, he had it developed. And as someone else said. It contained pictures of him with his girlfriend, mother and friends. Just a regular person fighting for the wrong cause. My uncle would never tell us if he was the one that killed the German soldier.
Those soldiers saved Europe from Bolshevism at that time. It's sad that so many Germans and Russians died in that fight, and now Russia is not communist but the West is the new home of the Bolsheviks.
When I was young and heard stories told by my French mother and her friends, all natives of northern France, it was easy to see the people in these pictures as not only enemies but actually crazy people. Now, decades later, it's difficult to see these people as anything other than sensible and no different from my American Army father and his fellow American soldiers. It is a stark lesson that normal people can be persuaded to become monsters during hard circumstances if monstrous demagogues like Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot, Mussolini, Stalin etc are around to exploit them.
I don't completely agree with you. Not all German soldiers were crazy evil people. It was mainly the Nazi SS who had no virtue. Many of the soldiers who were fighting for the German army were conscripts from Poland and the other countries which were overrun. They had no choice but to fight for the German army. I'd say that very few of these conscripts committed murder and rape of the civilian population.

Take away the uniforms, and these men would not look that different to most English or American soldiers - that is so sad. Granted, some of them became fanatics, but most of them were conscripted and had no choice but to fight in the Wermacht!
Exactly what I was thinking. In "Band of Brothers", there is a scene where a group of German prisoners are encountered by the men of Easy Company. Turns out that one of the Germans speaks perfect English and, in fact, grew up in the same area as one of the Americans. He said that he was called back to his "motherland" when the war broke out and he was conscripted into the German army. In another time, these two men could have been good friends. This is one scenario which shows the stupidity of war. There were so many good men wasted due to the mindless political agendas of a few evil "leaders". That mainly being Hitler and his Nazi egomaniacs. And this just keeps happening over and over in this crazy world. Too many non-virtuous people keep either getting elected or appointed to important leadership roles. Unfortunately, even our local police forces contain many "respect my authoritah" tyrants who are just like Adolf Hitler. They're everywhere.
Generally just your average everyday person who became caught up in the whirlwind that became WW2. Several years before I suppose these young people were in school or doing an apprenticeship in hopes of getting a better life than what their parents had (WW l, difficult financial circumstances, war reparations from Germany that caused the Deutschmark to collapse, etc.) and possibly move to a different area of Germany to find work. Then, it seemed, all hell broke loose. Sad, really.
Да,- замечательная подборка фотографий. И лица ЛЮДЕЙ на них... Пишу из России, Москва. Мне 60. )) Мой дед был пилотом Ил-4. Сгорел над своим аэродромом в районе Воронежа в первых числах июня 1942 года. После бомбардировки танковой колонны самолет был атакован и подожжен парой Ме-109. Дотянул до своего аэродрома, удерживал машину в воздухе, чтобы штурман и два стрелка смогли покинуть борт с парашютами. Намеревался посадить самолет без экипажа, чтобы его можно было починить и летать дальше. Самолетов не хватало. Потери в тот период были огромными...
At 2:27 in the background are buildings which look very similar to concentration camp barracks. Any idea of the background on on this photo? BTW..I subscribed. Keep them coming and the color is great IMO.
These are propably baracks on a military training area somewhere in Germany. The whole situation fits in and suggests that. This is a typical scene from basic recruit training. The light uniform trousers also indicate this. These were typically worn during training, usually in combination with equally bright uniform jackets. Such barracks still exist today at military training areas in Germany. I got to know them myself as a recruit in the Bundeswehr.
The Wemarcht ; the Germany Army of the word war 2 times was the most well organised and strongest b; itconwuered more than half of Europe and placed a very effective administration
@@SoyerStudioFilm They make me think about how real people, probably quite decent in civilian life can think they are doing the noble and honorable thing in serving their country but at the same time are part of a monstrous evil.
I really appreciate being able to see these photographs, but in the next one please use another style transition. While the images are moving they are out of focus and after about 10 a headache began to appear and couldn't watch to the end.
These men are all army not SS which makes it very unlikely that the picture was taken in a concentration camp. These barracks are a standard model. Could be a POW camp or a basic training camp esp since the whole setup looks like at a shooting range.
I watched a video recently about SS men that were still alive, the footage was from approximately 10 years ago. These men were in their 80’s or 90’s. All of them stated that life for regular German’s before Hitler came into power was very difficult, good paying jobs were scarce and most people didn’t eat 3 meals a day. Life was tough. All of them said that joining the military was very honorable and made life easier. You were fed very well,clean clothes,medical care,comfortable sleeping accommodations, and decent pay. Hitler & Himmler told them that they were helping re establish Germany to its rightful place in the world. It gave them a sense of pride. When the SS was formed and looking for members,you got extra pay and benefits for doing so. The brainwashing was hard and heavy. After the war was over it took them quite awhile to realize what they had done was wrong. You could tell they were still devoted Nazis as you listened to them talk about the glory days of the Third Reich. All smiles and they still knew the words to the Nazi patriotic songs.

Looking at today I’m beginning to think we were lied to, ask yourself a question, why did Germany invade Poland??? Easy to gain their land back that was taken from them after the First World War, Germans in Poland were being persecuted and Hitler kept asking Poland to stop but Poland didn’t. I could say much more to what I’m beginning to believe but I had better not as for some reason if you deny anything to do with the Second World War you get talked down to or jailed. I hope the truth will be revealed in the near future. RIP to ALL that perished
they may have lost the war but Germany weren't really losers were they ?, they came out of it very nicely or certainly those at the very top of German society did !
Nice summery pictures of them all Goosestepping along in Russia committing attrocitys to men, women & children as they went.. Well it wasn't long before they were in Minus 40 degrees in Stalingrad all goosestepping off to The Gulag Camps...
You seem to be British, American or the like; just in case you want to get a little closer to the actual truth - why don't you check out - The Myth of German Villainy by Brenton L. Bradberry or - Tell The Truth and Shame The Devil by Gerard Menuhin, the son of the great Yehudi Menuhin Wonder if you would make to the second chapter of either one of those books because you then would have to question the usual narrtaive and that is not for everybody....

Very sorry. War sucks.
The most interesting thing to see is that the people then looked much older and mature than people of the same age today

yeah a lot of 18 year old today look like 14 year olds.
They had harder lives then than we have today.
They were warriors don't compare them with privileged, soft milenials that can't live without starbucks, ig and gym. Weak, fake modern society.
