      (Hitler) convinced himself defeating the Russians would lead to Britain finally unable to resist defeat. Operation sea lion (despite the Germans never neutralizing British radar capabilities) if together by Germany and Japan would have been successful. Barbarossa and pearl harbor were avoidable blunders. Britain was the axis powers missed opportunity for success.

    My grandfather was chasing Germans across Slavonia (today Croatia), he was a commander in Yugoslav partisan army. They were highly trained soldiers (the Germans). Not many captured lived to see a trial, secret service typically ordered execution on the spot. I recall my grandfather was torn as Germans would cry and show photos of children, begging for their lives, but typically the men on horses in long leather coats would give the “execute” order by a wave of their hand. These were the secret service men, above any law or military. There was no choice.
    Wars are extremely tragic and only a fool can think they are good.

Growing up I knew 3 German ex servicemen and I remember what they told me about their families and friends who didn't survive the bombings or the Russians, very sad when small children and the elderly are victims. Imagine a Germany that had been progressive?......near my home in Ireland there was an hydroelectric power station off a man made lake, built in 1926 just after Ireland had gained independence and it was German's who came and built it. The German's interned in Ireland had the best of it, but many lost their families, friends and communities.

    I always look forward to your new uploads. Sadly, yet another diary that abruptly ends because the soldier was killed in action. I didn’t think I could have more hatred and contempt for Adolph Hitler but with every diary I listen to my disgust of that psychopathic monster grows. I don’t have much less contempt for Stalin, he was just as indifferent about his soldiers lives (his not one step back policy) and didn’t give a damn about the innocent civilians caught in the middle of the horror and carnage. Forcing the civilians to remain in the cities ((Leningrad, Moscow and Stalingrad) to motivate the Russians soldiers to fight that much harder
    How did the world come to have so many despicable megalomaniacs leading countries at the same time…Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Mao, Tojo? I can only conclude that the terrible economic conditions gave these monstrous men the opportunity to gain the megalomaniacal power they craved. My god the suffering, death and destruction they caused is still difficult for me to wrap my head around. It so important that people understand this history, never have the words “History repeating itself” ever been so important! 22:12

    It's good to see the unedited, un self-redacted thoughts of a German soldier. So many of the books by German soldiers are a type of revisionism, and try to claim they weren't part of the local atrocities and didn't know about the wider atrocities.

      LOL Good grief. What atrocities? The things the SOVIETS accuse them of? You know the Russians lie- about everything, right? Look at now in Ukraine- same as back then. Besides shooting partisans is perfectly legitimate- they're murderers and worse. Did you listen to what this guy reports they did to his friend? They did a lot worse. So it was entirely correct to execute them. And the claim that a lot were innocent civilians comes from the Soviets- and what do we know about Soviet claims? That's right. Lies. Always lies.

    • @TedBronson1918
      @TedBronson1918 10 місяців тому +5

      The combat soldiers are usually doing just that - engaging in combat. Hitler had other, specialized troops behind the lines to do the dirty work of atrocities. I'm sure the combat troops participated in some too, but they were mainly busy fighting Soviet troops. Neither the Soviets nor the Germans observed the niceties of the Geneva Convention during that war, so it's silly to just dump on the Germans about atrocities. If you want to talk about revisionism then look at the Soviet versions of the war. Hell, they revised history itself.

    You can see from these diary reports that the Eastern Front was doomed from the start. It seems despite the massive territory gains after Barbarossa, the Germans were advancing at too much speed to try to conquer their ambitious objectives in a short period and ignoring that all their logistics stayed back in Poland. The soldiers were advancing and winning but then they were starving and lacked any post office or field kitchens.

      Stop making excuses for Germans - both soldiers and civilians. Hitler is the most evil man that ever existed and Germans were just as evil cause they followed him. Hitler never ever hid is cruel intentions so much that he even wrote them in a best seller book- Mein Kampf.

    Many soldiers at war suffer trauma, some believe in the country and its commanders, others are more critical. But in all, we had good soldiers and bad ones. The British bombed the city of Dresden on purpose to reduce Germany's fighting strength. Some americans soldiers cut, cooked and hung the heads of Japanese soldiers from their backpacks, trucks, tanks. It's all documented. If that wasn't enough, they dropped two atomic bombs on Japan. The Germans carried out the Holocaust, Stalin carried out the purge together with Mao Tse Tung, killing more people than the Second World War. In war, truth is the first victim, and innocent people suffer due to the madness of their leaders. May God have mercy on us.

      War is terrible. But don't try to dilute the guilt of Germany not only for starting the war but for supporting those who made them complicit in the Holocaust. And as for Dresden London did not fare well under German bombing. Germany complaining about Dresden and deprivations of war shows that they might still not understand the suffering they wrought by starting that war.

      Stalin was a monster so was Mao but still never ever like the Germans. The fact that Germans planned and actually did it- picked up millions of babies and small children just to torture and gas them. That alone tells you that Germans were the most evil people that ever existed. Hitler is the most evil man that ever existed and the fact that Germans followed him tells me that they were just as evil.

    Another very interesting diary- and typically amusing little pro-Soviet propaganda editorializing at the beginning LOL I didn't hear anything that sounded like what you claimed, and if you're meaning the mentions of executions of parisans, those are legitimate- and merciful compared to the crimes they committed. If there was any suffering of innocent civilians it was due to the dirty Red Army hiding among them instead of fighting like real soldiers, and using civilians as human shields. The barbarity of Soviet 'paritsans' is well-known and of the most disgusting sort. Just look at what has and is happening in Ukraine now- Russians haven't changed. None of this is new- they've always been that barbaric.
