It's a worry. Australia is literally America's most dependable ally, stepping up to fight along side the US in every major conflict since WWI. Very literally the only country to do so. We're also part of the exclusive Five Eyes intelligence alliance, putting us in the absolute top tier of closeness to the USA. We're a martial nation that takes our own security and our role as an ally seriously - for the US and UK, consistently fighting alongside both in conflicts since the 1800s. There's even a huge memorial in Canberra that was unveiled by The Queen in the 1950s to commemorate America's role in the defence of Australia during WWII. But you say Americans aren't taught or know this? Disappointing. 🇦🇺🇺🇸🇦🇺🇺🇸
Yuo should watch 'the dish' : The Dish is a 2000 Australian historical comedy-drama film that tells the story of the Parkes Observatory 's role in relaying live television of humanity's first steps on the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969.
Perfect for Anzac Day. Thanks mate.
Yep, that’s one thing we’ve never done is back down from a fight when you guys have ask us for a hand.🇦🇺🇺🇸
Lest We Forget! 😪🌅
Most Americans don't know that Australia was in the Vietnam war
That's because we actually won battles and were the real jungle fighters, while America just lost the war!
SASR were the most feared of all in Vietnam named Ma Rung meaning Phantoms of the Jungles and hearing some of their missions you can see why. they taught navy seals and MACV SOG and were members of it and barely any USA know this or will admit it.
Australia is only foreign country allowed a memorial in Vietnam and is at the location of Battle of Long Tan where 108 Aussies with artillery defeat 2500 VC. only 18 Aussies deaths and Vietnam still will not admit theirs.
@@nedkelly9688 Yes, we were the only heroes in Vietnam!
Happy ANZAC day everybody! We're celebrating it today in AUS and NZ.
Most people say commemorating or observing not celebrating, and don’t say Happy ANZAC Day. It’s a time for thanks and reflection. But then again I might be just of the older generation.
I agree@@brasschick4214
Just what i was going to say very appropriate with anzac day tomorrow,just great .
I always knew and I guess most Aussies knew our countries fought together. My mother was actually engaged to an American when they were here during WW2. Only problem he wanted mum to go to America but mum couldn’t leave her parents,,sibling or friends. So he went home and mum met dad, an Aussie, They were very happily married for nearly 70 years.
A great video for ANZAC day, I salute you sir.
Omg I just looked the up. I didn't even know wow
Perfect for ANZAC Day CV. Thankyou ❤😂🎉
Australia and NZ (the ANZACS find a video on the) were in both the WW1 and WW2 conflicts almost from the get go. US didnt enter WW1 until 1917 and WW2 til 1941. But its always purported that America saved the day. Australia and NZ dont get a mention in the US version
Ye and until Germany defeat late 1943 were more Australian as ground troops then Americans and why we did the bigger more Jap populated New Guinea and only 4 Divisions of Marines did Solomon's.
Australia won 5 battles in Papau before Guadal was won.
The Battle of Hamel, in terms of numbers and ground gained, was comparitively modest. But it is seen as a great triumph and a mark of things to come in ww1, in terms of how well it went. Australian troops under Australian leadership, proper and well-timed support from artillery, air and armor, all planned in careful detail. It took 93 minutes to achieve all objectives - the plan had been for 90.
John Monash is regarded as one of Australia's finest generals, who had been a patent lawyer AND a civil engineer ppre-ww1. He brought both skillsets to his military career, with clear communication and careful planning at all levels. Noteworthy is that his parents were Prussian (German) Jews, and this very nearly kept him out of the army when the war began.
I would also add, the US Army was segregated during ww1 and ww2, this didn't start to change until Korea, when President Truman ordered an end to this practice "Black" units existed, but mostly had non-combat service duties such as transportation. Hence, probably not many Black Americans serving at Hamel.
NOT mentioned here is ww2's infamous 'Battle Of Brisbane', a big riot / brawl that took place in Brisbane in 1942, mainly between US and Aussie troops for various reasons. When the US officially joined ww2 in December 1941, Australia and the rest of the British Commonwealth / Empire had already been fighting for nearly 2 years. Long story short, having a large number of distinctly well-paid and well-fed US troops show up, full of bravado and with all sorts of luxuries and privileges, led to a great deal of resentment from our own troops. We have gotten past that since, pretty much.
Btw, General Douglas Macarthur is popularly seen in the USA as a great hero. The Aussie experience of him in ww2 and Korea was as a self-important publicity-grabbing @$$, who'd always steer Aussie troops into minor operations so the important stuff (and the glory) could all be taken by 'his' US troops.
Australia, as a country, began with Federation in 1901, when six British colonies (now States) finally agreed to unify. New Zealand took part in the talks but chose to remain separate. Australia's Constitution still allows for NZ to join IF they ever choose to, but nobody expects this to happen any time soon. A strong brotherly relationship endures, and the Kiwis take great pride in routinely beating we Aussies in most sports. :)
I think the general Australian view is that the USA needs us around, that Americans always seem to do a lot better when there is at least one Aussie in the room. :)
Mateship is part of being Australian I think. It is sort of like being friends, but much more. When I think about it, I suppose it is kind of friends, but also your mates are almost 'the family you chose' if you know what I mean. You have friends, you have family and then you have mates. And, generally, it doesn't take long to make a mate or two if you live here.
Australia's constitution actually allows New Zealand to join as a state should they ever want to.
Today is ANZAC day, which is a huge deal over here.
ANZAC stands for 'Australia and New Zealand Army Corps' and celebrates the shared military efforts our soldiers have participated in.
I'm surprised that the doco didn't mention that the Australian army was actually under the direct command of US General MacArthur during the Pacific operations, where they fought back the Japanese from their planned invasion of Australia.
Would’ve been good to mention the General’s quote - ‘If I ever had to take Hell, I’d take the Aussies to Storm it and the Kiwis to Hold It..’
Tells a full story in itself ❤
🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸🤝🇳🇿
There was some angst during WW2 with the amount of American servicemen in Australia, on leave and mingling with the young Aussie ladies while our troops were fighting the Japanese in the jungle of Papua New Guinea. There was a phrase used to describe the Yanks. They were "Over Paid, Over Sexed, and Over Here"!
Cheers mate.
New Zealand as a British colony, and was part of the colony of New South Wales; but when the colonies joined in Federation, New Zealand decided to go alone. But during the outbreak of World War I, Australia and New Zealand once again were joined together; this was the beginning of the ANZAC(Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) tradition of 'mateship', which continues to today. ANZAC DAY is celebrated in both countries on the 25th of April, in recognition of those who gave both service and their lives for the freedom of their respective countries; it also honours those who continue to give service to their nations, and to those families left behind.
Should check out the new Aussie made Ghost Bat drone that our Air Force is using now
I don't think Americans or other countries for that matter know that Australia was actually bombed by Japan. Our most northern City of Darwin was bommed and there was a small contingent of American service men stationed there and they fought side by side with us, Also Sydney Harbour was attacked by a midget submarine which sunk one of our war ships...Thanks for this reaction mate.
My great uncle was awarded for saving an American carrier from midget submarines, and preventing entry at Coffs Harbour, but only by Australia!!
@@jenniferharrison8915 God bless your dear Great Uncle. So many unsung hero's
@@justlinsu He lost his life at 29 because of an error with refuelling - he gave his all! Yes, many unsung heroes, and many more left unacknowledged and unheard! 🙏👍
@@jenniferharrison8915 💔
Generally we go in first in the conflict and the last to leave , we are stealthy buggers that don't shy away from a good Donnybrook with our mates and never will ..
Sir John Monash, Australian general along with Australian and American troops pushed the germans back in France and won WW1, Monash was the first to end the war of attrition, fighting with the blitzkrieg effect. Monash was a selfless man who cared for his men.🙏. Monash was the architect of the shrine in Melbourne Australia 🦘🦘🦘.
The thing about New Zealand is, it's been around for over 200 years, it's not new anymore.
Until the US joined the war in 1942, Australia and New Zealand were virtually the only force stopping the Japanese from moving further south through the Pacific. Even when wars were happening far away in WWI, the proportion of fighting age men who enlisted here was pretty much second to none too. You could argue that we've potentially had more exposure to international conflict because we have come to the aid of allies on both sides, with assistance provided to the British in conflicts like the Boer War and the help provided to the US in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc.
youll find they say in many historical articles and doco's the British forces, this includes AUS, NZ, South Africa, Canada, india etc.
The USA friendship is very important to Australia and always will be.
American troops first arrived in Australia in 1942, and caused a bit of a stir, but now they are a regular sight! Australians always turn up first and leave last, but I hope not in another war soon! We even broadcast the Moon Walk to the world! Anzacs forces are respected worldwide as strong, reliable and brave, but not so much as noted in the USA! 🇦🇺🙋🇳🇿
Bit of a stir lol. Battle of Brisbane 5000 people fought on streets of Brisbane oficially 1 death reported but many say were many Americans killed also but kept quiet.
400o fought in Melbourne and fights broke out all over Australia once word got out.
General MacArthur lied about Australian battle wins claiming were all American and why even this guy know's nothing of how Australian troops outnumbered USA in ground troops until late 1943 early 1944. after Germany defeat.
@@nedkelly9688 Yes, The Battle of Brisbane, one unarmed Australian was removed, noone paid for that because the US Base and forces had diplomatic immunity! Australians were off duty and unarmed, and had tried to help an American soldier! 'Over here, oversexed, over paid'!
Stirred the cockles of my heart 💜
LEST WE FORGET. I love this and I have never seen this thankyou
what MANY Americans (and Australians) dont know, was that in 1944 the British had ONE million military in Burmah. More victories in the Pacific were actually won by Australian troops than Amercian but give to The US to encourage their people at home to coninue....In Vietnam, the American Veterans site, We Are The Mighty, has an ariticle on "The Most Feared Army in Vietnam" you should check that out.
The Civil war was actually the first time Australian's fought beside Americans approximately 140 Australians and New Zealanders fought in the Union/ Confederate armies
Australia owed the US a great debt of gratitude for coming to our aid in the Second World War. The American involvement in the Battle of La Hamel nearly never occurred because that incompetent fool General Pershing didn't want US troops to serve under a foreign command. The US troops had a different idea though and would have joined the battle anyway. So the battle went ahead despite the US troops being delayed and jeopardizing the Australian's flanks . But eventually, they joined the battle and it all came out well. Unfortunately, it soured a lot of the Australians' attitude to the US troops including General Monash.
G'day. Many countries like Australia, New Zealand and Canada just get included into the "Britisg" war effort. It is easy to overlook what a lot of countries have done in support of the british.
The English government always sent the Australians in battle first. Australian soldiers were highly admired by Rommel for thier guts and will to fight.
After we beat Japan in Papua New Guinea Australia's navy fought in tge battle of the Coral sea with the stars and stripes at their masts 🇦🇺 🇱🇷
Yes, we are mates. I consider the US and the UK to be our mates, cousins even. But as mentioned in the video, New Zealanders are our brothers and sisters.
G'day mate from Australia.
I have to inform you that it was not the Australians helping the Americans in fact it was the Americans helping the British, Australians and New Zealanders who had been fighting the War before America came into the war, for which we are eternally grateful as we could not have won the war without Americas help...Today April 25th is ANZAC day in Australia and New Zealand when we pay homage to our armed forces who have died for our freedom in all wars....WE WILL REMEMBER THEM...LEST WE FORGET!
Mate you need to at least get the date right Anzac Day is the 25th not the 26th. Hopefully that was only a typo.
@@user-bi8wp6wy3l Yes you are correct mate it really was a typo...I have now corrected it...Thank you!
Americans have been in Australia since 1815
Lest we forget #anzac
WW2 General MacArthur's men were all Australian from when he arrived in Australia until late 1943 early 1944 as US and Britain had a Germany, Europe 1st policy. Australia had a mismatched 10 Divisions and 1 Armoured Division while MacArthur only had US 51st and US 32nd Divisions and both were poorly trained and unfit for combat.
MacArthur would report to US high ups that Australia only wins were either all American or a allied and never said was a all Australian win.
Australia did bigger Papua New Guinea while only 4 Marine Divisions did smaller Solomon's.
MacArthur treated Australian's so poorly Aussies rioted against US in city of Brisbane Australia. was named Battle of Brisbane WW2. 5000 people fought on streets of Brisbane with 1 fatality but are rumours many more died but was kept secret. all media was blocked outside Australia and all letters etc US soldiers sent to USA about it were stopped also.
4000 fought in Melbourne and fights broke out all over Australia once word got out.
Aussies got so sick of MacArthur and his lies they even went to his HQ and wrecked it while looking for him.. Lucky for once Dug out Doug is nickname he was given as hid far from the frontline was for once in Papau close to the battle.
Australian are said by USA that they only did mopping up and USA did it all. when Australia did every main battle in Papau. 32nd and 51st Divisions were finally sent in to battle in Buna Gona battles and 32nd Division actually refused to fight and was not until their commanding officer was replaced and Australian General Wooten and Aussies famous Kokoda track fighters reinforced them did they start fighting again.
51ST did well in the battle.
The Aussies hearing of 32nd Division cowardice also angered them and tensions grew.
New Guinea campaign mainly all Australian battles had almost 200,000 Japanese while famous Guadal Canal of USA only had 30,000 men.
Australia had won 5 battles before Guadal was over, but you never hear of these.
Australia famous Z unit did special forces missions throughout Asia Pacific, most famous is rowing canoes in to Singapore Harbour and attaching limpet mines to Japanese ships.
Sparrow Force were in Timor and also was most successful longest behind enemy lines of any special forces of WW2.
Can you do giant by Nick nittoli brotherrr
Australian and New Zealand soldiers held the north Koreans attack so American forces could withdraw in the Korean war.
All good until Trump if he gets in he'll change that⁉️👍👍
