I was in the US Army and served as a Dental lab tech, in germany from 1966 to 1967. I had my own lab unit and one of my german civilians was a Surviver of stalingrade named Victor Zimmerman. He died of the effects of his time as a POW, and we all wnt to His Funeral. in Munchin.
@@APOLON-bm7ymmost Russian front PoWs wbere not released until 1955.....the ones that survived, I think about 90,000 went into captivity from Stalingrad and 5000 survived....
My Grandfather served in the 6th armee, was captured in 1943 and released from labor camp in 1952. He never revealed much about war times but few years before he died he wrote 7 very touching pages that made me cry. Taking a look around today everyone in the West should know why Germans fought to the last bullet back than.
Sorry Peter. You're wrong. Nazism created the mess we have now. It's just a reaction to the absolute stupidity of extremist racial theory. Everyone knows blondes are dumb. It's the Germanic ego problem of blaming everyone else and not accepting personal responsibility. How do I know?? My great grandmother was 100% German, I totally understand.
I'm less interested in the end than in the beginning......if Germany had been totally defeated in WW1, occupied, then maybe those German's would have known better.
ohh damn that guy was quite fortunate after all. He boarded into one of the last planes out of Potomnik on the 11th of January. If his price to pay was an arm I think it was worth it, staying behind meant certain death...
The Americans did little to win the war in Europe except supply the Soviets.thats where the Fighting was going on.the Americans fought second rate troops and kids.shit more Germans and Russians were killed in Stalingrad than all us troops during the whole war.
I served as a Rifleman(11Bravo)in the US Army from Sep 2006-Dec 2008 when i got injured. I salute the men and women from all countries that answered the call of their countries! I salute 🫡 👏 you !!!
The German army that fought and suffered in Russia was probably one the best and experienced armies ever, and Hitler, being a military genius, took control of it (because his generals like Manstien) were incompetent (according to Hitler) and what was the result of Hitler’s insane idiotic orders? He totally destroyed that elite fighting force! Didn’t Hitler think he had enough on his plate fighting Russia and the British without deciding unilaterally (without consulting anyone) that declaring war on the United States just might not be a good idea? He based his military decisions on mindless bigotry instead of understanding his opponents! That’s just plain ignorant and stupid! ….and his soldiers paid the price of his ignorance.
Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what/whom the orator was describing. Professional class A research project!!! Special thanks to veteran soldiers civilians sharing personal information/combat experiences. Fighting/perishing/surviving knowing certain death/debilitating wounds were often times possible. Yet still advanced forward/stood their ground. Regardless of the consequences. Due to general Paulus blind faith ignorance obeying the disillusioned/arrogant fuhrer's orders. Not to retreat while there was still time. Afterwards lived liked a king 👑 as a ( POW ) along with other generals. Within the cities perimeters of Suzdal. Much better captivity accommodations then the low ranking infantry soldiers were afforded. I've no respect for that disillusioned/incompetent fool. 🃏🃏
Thanks! I still think that the 6th army did not die in vain. If they had retreated, the western southern flank of the eastern front would have been surrounded. They would not be able to defend the steppe. Having lost the sixth army, Germany saved many more of its soldiers.
@@MilitaryClubHISTORYhere's "the straw that breaks the camels back." The Russian defence came close many times. Stalingrad was Germany's straw. Whether by plan or accident, it was a Russian master-stroke.
@@MilitaryClubHISTORY They should have been respected... Nevermind which side they were on, they bravely fought for their fatherland under the worst conditions in the history of warfare...

This is why Germany lost the war. Russians know that you eat the Major. There's much more mass of nutrition than in a dog. The Japanese knew about this too, it's just that they over extended. Oh, here's a theme. 😂

What? More Germans died in American pow camps after the war than in the war . Look up eisenhowers death camp or Rhein meadow death camps there is photo evidence of thousands of Germans in open field left there to die of starvation or cold
Why you guys worship the son of God but not God Himself? What about mother? You worship the mother too?! Right? I tell u what, Jesus peace and blessings be upon him and virgin Mary his pure virgin mother are free from you and they will never be on yoursude, He never ever said worship me, its the J that made you do it. God is One and Alone, never born, never gave birth, no relatives, He IS God. Most Glorified He is.😢😢😢
The Russians made a news clip after the encirclement.that is fake.the war wasn't.stalingrad wasn't the Germans lost 1/4 of their army.hitler said he could storm heaven with the 6th army.he probably could've but he no field Marshall
I can never hear enough of these stories. thank you

Nice to hear about the humanity of the Russian old man and woman. This is what the world needs.

He said at the very beginning that he had saved his hand. So this is an even happier ending to this story))
@@MilitaryClubHISTORY really, guess I missed that. Good for him!

No one cares about you , quit trying to take credit for something you had no part in . This is about WW2 veterans , not fake ones like you
Thanks.
God was nowhere near Stalingrad.
Fantastic videó very interest. I very like Esstern front Stalingrad war. My grandfather died Stalingrad Don river 1943
Rest in Peace, doggo.
Incredible souls . Over nothing.

Trust an Irishman to see a man as he is. I'm 50% Irish ancestry. Paulus was a weak man. Physically tall and impressive looking, but yeah, weak.

Definitely wasn’t Rommel
It's my favorite campaign. Thank you for always being interesting
Baita!😊
The germs ran out of ammo food no winter clothes good grief if they had all these things I wonder what the outcome would have been DO YOU .?
Couldn't imagine not having a weapon or ammo and have to scrounge at night looking for some.😬
"I was given a window seat cuz I was Stalingrad veteran"...
They were especially respected. So it was in the Wehrmacht and in the Red Army.

The Germans were quite human.the allies killed 45 to 1 in pows.if they would have lost they would be the war criminals.think about that.
