  2. It tells us that man It sucks to be shot at

  3. “They sent Erwin Rommel, who turned out to be an aggressive commander.” Thats a RAF level understatement

  4. OKW: Okay you two can conduct reconnaissance in force but your hq must remain at the current position Guderian and Rommel: ok First sergeant: Do they know these two spend less time in the HQ than the toilet, and lead on the front? Week later OKW: how did the 7th Panzer and Guderian’s Panzer Corps get within sight of the Atlantic?

  5. No? What part of a T-62 and BTR-60s are ‘brand new’? You’re just making that up Everyone liking this doesn’t know what they’re talking about and thumbing it up cuz ‘sounds about right’

  6. Chinese units were small
    35
  7. There’s so many other factors, considering the 15+ year conflict, especially the completely forgotten part that the US sent third rate troops to vietnam
    15
  8. If it further exaggerates the point, every army regulation made after June 1941 was made with the assumption the reader was on the eastern front, always referring to the Russian, their land, equipment, tactics, and preferences

  9. He just needs to mobilize the reserves

  10.  @ascarakmalov9087 estimates I’ve seen put both sides as suffering 100,000 minimum KIA and probably the same again wounded, minimums. Equipment wise is a shitshow, Oryx is a minimum baseline to work with but god only knows who has lost what where.

  12. The loss ratio is for losses, not gains

  13. Can’t Doesn’t exist in public sources

  14.  @solwen  not even close to comparable since the French knew an attack was coming somewhere, the US had been on the offensive almost non stop since 1942
    10
  15. It’s not partial, it’s just baseline minimum You can’t say they lost less than, that, because we have proof, etc.

  16.  @googlesucks7840  they didn’t “leave it open”, their forces were concentrated in the French countryside west of the Meuse, the Ardennes was terrain that was full of rolling hills shite roads and dense vegetation, had the allied air forces assaulted the spotted Panzer Corps (multiple spots) more significantly while the Luftwaffe was focused on Army Group B’s sector, that push may not have gone so well

  17. ‘All the research’ they talk as if they were god watching from the clouds and reading everyone’s mind

  18. Just imagine if the urbanization connects Kharkiv to Donbas

  19.  @RCx44 coping with what? Reality?

  20.  @oliverb.8995  oh but it did, which makes sense, would be pretty dumb to send first rate troops to a backwater and not, you know, Germany or Korea…

  21.  @elbarone9749  nah you just ate erect Saurkraut, Force fed

  22. I hate to be that guy, truly, but that’s not an army (it’s very small for me on mobile but I only see 3 Xs) that’s a Corps, army’s are 4 X’s A panzer corps too I do believe since the dark tokens were the armor formations, there never was a 48th Panzer Army, hell the 5th Panzer Army was made in winter 1944

  23.  @sisyphusvasilias3943  weird since the Russians themselves admit they were there with active military, not just special forces either
    4
  24.  @Hillbilly001  …isn’t that just supporting what I said? We sent third rate troops, troops that weren’t able to handle the tasks provided, among other things like pulling ‘pogs’ in effect into infantry duties, which the official history of the USMC was harshly critical of, but I mean, how am I full of shit? You just seem to be providing examples of what my basic point was

  25. You don’t have to capture every centimeter and gank everyone occupying it to end a conflict
    4
  26. @I hate both dogs and cats equally unlikely considering by day 4 the French were (trying) to attack, they just had no reserves, who were they going to use to attack?

  27.  @WagesOfDestruction  you have it backwards Your comment is not relevant to this video

  28.  Abu Troll al cockroachistan  I want to know the moron that said Stalingrad was a symbolic target, it wasn’t, it was the connection of the Soviet heartland to the Caucasus The German invasion was doomed when no one stopped Halder from focusing the offensive to AGC’s sector in attacking Moscow rather than AGS’s sector to capture the oil when everyone with half a Brain cell knew Germany’s oil shortages would become problematic
    3
  29. Current academics point to Operation Barbarossa’s excessive German losses of their most experienced and well trained units and best equipment being the turning point, 1942’s Case Blue was the last ditch effort to save the situation

  30. Many decried the reds for breaking the oath Russia had made to its allies to fight the central powers, seeing it as betraying Serbia especially. Many tsarist officers wanted to continue the war (hence, Alexander Kolchak) The reason entente forces intervened was to regain Russia in the war
    3
  31. Actually he really didn’t, contemporary knowledge all pointed to a German success in summer 1941, but the biggest culprit behind the German failing was Halder’s asinine decision to focus the offensive in the center at Moscow instead of the south toward the caucuses as Hitler argued for

  33. Operation Dynamo: the evacuation of all allied forces in Belgium

  34. You’re partially right, the Red army suffered extensively by the asinine decisions of Stavka and Stalin in 1941-1942, Zhukov was quite literally the only competent leader for a long time in the war and even then he made slip ups, one of his biggest was the idea that in winter 1941 it was a counter offensive and he tried to encircle the army group center instead of more realistic separate armies
    2
  35.  @СцукоНах  I don’t see how Army group north could cut the northern soviet port cities by capturing Leningrad, can you elaborate? Also the reproduction of the KV tanks would’ve been likely difficult as historically the Germans assessed the T34 and decided that attempting to copy it would be ineffective due to all the logistical and specialist issues, I doubt the KV series would be any different

  36. It’s about combat operations in Donbas area What relevance does a terror famine or a country that did not even control the Donbas have to combat operations

  39.  @PlacidoDomingo180  if that was the case the war would’ve ended months ago

  40. ultimateroblocksgawd Germany was lost from the word go when they let Halder shove army group center full of units instead of army group south so they could secure the oil before the crisis instead of trying during it
    2
  41. ultimateroblocksgawd sure but how many of those were actually tapped into in 1941? The Middle East only became a hot bed of oil in the mid-late 20th century when it was discovered and tapped into
    2
  42.  @semiramisubw4864  no, one of the biggest things with the invasion was the massive construction project to shorten the rail gauges for European rail cars, rail cars were important for movement of men and supplies, the troops at Stalingrad in 1942 were supplied by train before being encircled

  46. Not true, the high command acknowledged the threat the panzers posed very quickly, the problem was the shite French doctrine of “sit thumb in ass until orders come from command” while the orders go through dogshit communication systems, the French forces were never able to properly mount the multiple counterattacks that were ordered but by the time the order got there it was beyond too late, CAs were ordered at the Meuse, near Cambri, Arras (which the British actually began) and more

  47. In America public schools are dogshit especially in history as they brush over everything with the most basic things Fuck me the battle for Stalingrad had all of one slide in my history teacher (7th grade?) PowerPoint, it doesn’t help the history on the eastern front that only recently we got access to the Soviet Archives

  48.  @elitalks258  not in America, in America schools are run by disgusting government bureaucracy and of something doesn’t garner votes it’s not given resources or time of day to be good or even decent
