  1. When I lived in France everyone had been in the resistance.😂

  2.  @sandervanderkammen9230  I rang the bell and you came salivating…although you might like to check on what “invented” actually means. Don’t want you to look silly do we?

  5.  @ukmediawarrior  Watching YouTube videos isn’t really research…unless you’re a complete tosspot.

  6.  @Treblaine  Never mind all that…tell us more about these switches on the wings. I think the world needs to know.

  7. It was hardly scratched by these little things. Now take a loook at Dresden and see how it’s done properly.

  8. Predictable tactics, poor troops and equipment. Doomed from day one.

  9. Imagine if we all had a million pounds!

  10.  @Cailus3542  Ironically the reason Germany lagged behind Britain in the production of exotic and high temperature alloys was because of their deporting of many leading scientists who were Jewish. One was Howard Brown (the Anglicised name he took obviously) who became the chief metallurgist at Murex Limited in Rainham, Essex. Murex developed and manufactured many special alloys used in early jet turbine production and gave Britain a head start going into the 40s and 50s. In a case of double irony a German company bought out Murex in the 1980s, closed the plant (laying off several thousand workers) and shipped the factory to Trostberg.

  11. Yes, it’s almost as though it was a world war.

  12. Excellent idea with only two drawbacks…firstly they didn’t have any aircraft carriers and secondly they didn’t have any aircraft carriers.

  13.  @Sfirodrepanoskarxarias  Every wehraboo simply accepts German claims as fact. That these were all released through Goebbels and his propaganda ministry is lost on them.

  14. Quoting that old self-publicist Patton always smacks of desperation.

  15. The NHS was planned in 1942 by the conservatives and merely introduced by the new Labour government - almost exactly as planned. Of course politicians being politicians labour claimed it as their idea. Interestingly only one British newspaper opposed the formation of the NHS as it would encourage the working classes to breed and also affect the incomes of many of the doctors who read it. Yes…the Grauniad.

  17. On the other hand Hitler sacrificed a far higher proportion of Germans in a war he could never win.

  18. Remind me, how old were they at the time?😂

  19. It really added nothing to Robert Goddard’s work during the twenties and thirties…however much wehraboos claim otherwise. The only reason it gained notoriety is the fact a deranged leader of a fanatical nation spent millions of reichmarks (and slave labour) for the purpose of lashing out in futile anger and spite.

  20. Barely 10% of the V1 s aimed at London actually hit the city - which at the time was over 500 square miles. The chances of them hitting a ship (when they didn’t actually know where it was) is quite small if you think about it.

  21.  @tingkai1  Germany didn’t “defeat” Russia in WW1. Russia opted out to have a revolution.

  22. So the moral of the story is if you’re a country of automatons lead by a power crazed maniac who wants to dominate the world don’t build silly little toy aircraft - concentrate on fire bombing.

  23. lol. There are an infinite “types of steel.” To imagine any nation is or was limited to twenty is hilarious.

  24. It failed because they were Germans and they were attacking Russians.

  26. Puzzled why the narrator effects a French accent to say a Russian General’s name but it’s YouTube so what the hell?

  29. The early convoys were strictly British affairs. The US didn’t get involved in shipping material to the soviets until late 1942… by which time Germany was already defeated in all but name.

  30. Because it was useless.

  31.  @EllieMaes-Grandad  in terms of destructive power it was a total failure.

  33. it obviously wasn’t an unstoppable force. Merely an overconfident one based on a decade of propaganda (along with a seemingly national trait)

  35.  @charlesburgoyne-probyn6044  On the contrary. Murex received huge quantities of ore and raw materials from Germany at the war’s end. Germany was so focused on using the common (or host) metals such as tungsten, copper and aluminium (leading to the shortage of these) they simply didn’t have the experience to realise many of the metallurgical problems they had could have been solved by simply processing the companion metals as Britain did throughout the war.

  39. Possibly, although “dog fighting” was not the prime role of the RAF during the Battle of Britain. Their aim was to destroy as many German bombers as possible and the “vic” formation was superior for this purpose, it pays to remember the bombers do the damage and the fighters are there just to protect them. It was only when twelve group wanted to pursue shooting down fighters that the “finger four” formation (essentially one plane guarding another) became more common. The concept of “dog fighting” whilst good for story books is actually the last thing any Air Force desires - just as the last thing any tank commander wants to fight is another tank. Which is best? Well the vic formation is used around the world now and the finger four isn’t.
