I read Ken Smalls book and actually met him not long before he passed. He used to park his Vw golf near the tank and liked to chat about the tank and it's recovery and Operation Tiger. He had to"buy" the tank off the American government, I think it cost him a dollar! He had quite a struggle initially dealing with them ,as I think it was an embarrassment that a Briton was instigating a memorial ,not the US government. Needless to say his persistance paid off! He was a really nice guy and his book is a good read.
It was not a subject matter I thought I would be interested in. But how wrong I was to think that-it was fascinating, and the storyline was brilliantly told, as always. This series with Prof Roberts has fast become my favourite archaeological program. Long may it remain so.
Good old Red Alice, there is always an informative joy to be found in any program she is involved with, she is a great presenter who I remember right from the beginning of Archology TV with Time Team, I can't wait to see the aircraft on display.
Video not available The user who discussed the video has not made this video available in your country. Brexit doesn't meen you have to isolate yourselves.
@@Wasko1312 You sad Remainers never miss a chance to peddle your stupidity do you? Brexit got absolutely NOTHING to do with this video or the licencing by the people making the series (which was actually a live to air series)? Move on and maybe find a life.... 🤦♂😏
The Operation Tiger disaster was such a blow mainly due to the number of valuable LSTs that were lost it almost scuttled the D-Day plans. They barely had enough LSTs to complete the landings. The amphibious tanks were a death trap and never really worked. Amazing amateur archeology work by Mr. Small. Thank you
@@Oligodendrocyte139 They killed more of their crews than any enemy fire did. Therefore they were a disaster!. Most sank a long way from shore. That is why the LST was so important.
They were problematic when launched too far out in rough weather but most didn’t sink. Why people through out alternative facts when actual facts are so easily discoverable I’ll never know.
What a great idea to have a look underground for these amazing bits and pieces of scrap metal to tell a story of ordinary men and women during ww2. I had no idea of thinking about the orphans that came from that terrible war.
I glad there are still a few people around who were actually there to be able to put a human perspective to this history. We can “what if” an object and try to interpret things all we like. To hear people that were there or be able to tell us what it actually like and not guess is priceless,
I have dealt with batteries for years. I have sold, tested, and restored thousands. Without changing any parts, I managed to bring back a 17 year old battery that had been discharged for 9 years. I'm proud of that one, but I would love to see them smash my record and get one of those airplane batteries going again. That would be awesome.
Guitar maker here. Those machine heads are designed for a slotted headstock for mandolin, bouzouki, or Irish bouzouki. The give away is the roller design and string hole placement. Assuming they are standard rotational pitch they're off the treble side of the instrument. The buttons look to be pearlised, and I noticed they still catch the light despite all that time underground.
The little Unicorn pendant: Were the children staying there, staying there around Christmas time ? That little plastic unicorn could be from a Christmas cracker.
I don't know why this suddenly showed up for me on UA-cam, but I'm glad it did!!!! I'll be watching more episodes if they are available. Salutations from west of the pond.
Stories from Holocaust survivors always break a part of my soul. I’ll never comprehend how that hatred spread like the deathly social/ racist virus it was. May all be at rest. May the survivors find some healing. We MUST NEVER let history repeat like this! Love wins over hate everyone; so just LOVE! On a lighter note, I so enjoy the finds bringing the past up for us to see, learn, imagine times so long ago. I love this program! In my next life I hope I’m an archeologist😊
What an amazing find with of the Fairey Barracuda bomber. The whole bomber was an awesome find to finally have a model to use for a restoration. I am amazed. What a wonderful idea to have school student volunteers to help with the dig. Good show.... from San Diego California USA and a private pilot.
These people are so special. The long long days of moving dirt/mud with a paintbrush. Their finds are so well-researched and bring back the memories of WWII-its inspiring and credible. I can't help but think our leaders and other people today, should be exposed to the history revealed by these scientists. The information for most people would be humbling. I don't know. I'm well versed in much of the history of WWII, and I am humbled anew. Thanks.
It made me cry to hear the young man say that "We owed them" anything at all. Strange idea after rescuing all those young people and giving them life and liberty. They helped to recondition the young minds so that those people could carry on and have families of their own. I don't think England owes any of them anything except continued care and love.
09:57 please do not forget or gloss over the fact the Soviets invaded Poland from the east on the 17th September 1939 and committed numerous atrocities against the Polish people too.
For one, I would not expect Alice to have been responsible for the title and if you think about it, if it was unearthed from anywhere it is not going to be looking like it just came straight from the factory.
Thank you for putting that together for us. Especially the T-Rex background sounds. Seriously, I look forward to YOU and Chris more than any other UA-camr I watch. My wife will even ask, “do u have any Kyle’s to watch?” 😂 Thanks Man.
I enjoyed my watch 😊 Alice has brought together some fragments of WW2 so that we tangible evidence of the history that has given us insight into past events 👍🏻
When I was stationed in Holy Loch Scotland in the 80s I went into a pub that had a section of the wing of a JU88 on the wall behind the bar. I asked where they got it and he said in the field on the hill behind the pub. It crash landed there during the Battle of Britain
I am always happy when the younger generation learn of the UKs wartime history. The freedoms we take for granted today were paid for by these people of old. Lest We Never Forget.
The assumption that everything found at the hostel site can be attributed to the child prisoners is suspect to me. How do they know they aren’t remnants of the worker’s families that lived on the site during the war. Furthermore what is this being treated like a Roman dig as if we didn’t know what building materials were commonly used at the time? The story of the children is both heartbreaking and uplifting.
In Friesland, The Netherlands, near my home, a Wellington will be unearthed. A huge section of sea wall is excavated and strengthened with steel sheet pile wall all around the area. It's about a Wellington that crashed there in 1943 and the 5 men crew would still be on board. The job has to be finished before the storm season, can't afford a breach there. During ww2 both US and British aircraft have crashed/crash landed in The Netherlands in massive numbers. And when or wherever possible, remains of missing airmen are recovered. Also when there's mention of heavy explosives still unaccounted for, in the case of contruction plans. So nearly every year it's on.
My mum who was posted in the South of England & being involved in preparations for D Day knew that when the orders entitled 'Overlord' arrived it was 'the real thing' recalled large numbers of vehicles arriving at an 'American cemetery' around the time of the Slapton Sands disaster, we have speculated that these were the victims.
For a perfect preserved bomber you don't have to dig. Those you find all over the world in a hangar. And when it is perfect preserved you fly away with it.
Not all those items excavated @18:30 are necessarily as a result of the orphans staying there. That village was occupied for a lot longer by Shorts workers & their families, before the children's relatively brief stay.
It’s amazing that so many of these have laid undiscovered for so long. As long as they recovered the remains of the unfortunate aircrew and given them a decent burial, this is just an excavation of scrap metal….
Operation Tiger, the missing facts. The actual count of the dead is still in question. The number that was used was what one craft would carry. The trouble is one developed trouble while at port and they transferred everyone to a already loaded craft. The number should be higher. The biggest blunder goes to the Royal Navy command. The escort ship the Scimitar had been rammed by a American ship which left a huge hole above the water line. It was still able to patrol in fair weather. However Plymouth command ordered it to stay in dock. They failed to notify anyone and a replacement was never sent. So instead of two escort ships they only had one. I think they kept it quiet because America still needed air bases in the UK after the war ended and didn't want to rock the boat.
I found during a dig in Ypres years ago a perished leather bag containing British pennies ,i still have them and never cleaned them ,Victoria is the head on them and they are very worn
I have no issues anymore with ads, I purchased the UA-cam ad blocker so can watch everything ad free. Definitely worth getting if you use UA-cam a lot especially with documentaries like this or watching films.
I have been able to see this before. This last part reminds me of a Time Team episode too. But sadly I don't think that pilot made it home. Thanks 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
49:56 is an M1A3 Gunner’s Quadrant used for artillery. so ist unlikely it came from the tank. it there was a self propelled gun around or artillery units it likely came from them. the tanks main gun would have its own built in gun laying equipment. cool artifact none the less. kudos to ken small for bringing this episode to life, preserving the artifacts, and commemorating those men that lost their lives.
I’ve heard of the tragic Operation Tiger, which was covered up for at least 30 years. Survivors were sworn to secrecy. But I’m curious about the other pre D-Day practice invasions that were successful.
I really enjoyed this but can someone explain why distances in this type of British made & produced programme are always given in kilometres only instead of & with no reference to miles? All UK road signs & speedometers are still marked in miles or is it because this programme is accessible worldwide? Sorry but it’s a constant gripe of mine. Do most people really now think in kilometres?
My wife does, but she's Dutch Indonesian and speaks perfect English and Dutch. Her Indo has slipped over the years though, she says. I just speak Texan.
'Archeologists Discover Perfectly Preserved WW2 Bomber' - six words, three falsehoods. The plane was discovered by a survey team working on a cross-channel cable. The plane was neither preserved nor perfect. Thanks for flagging up another channel I'll know not to bother with in future.
I feel it sucks that you don’t hear about the Australian and New Zealand personnel who fought from the beginning of the war only the Americans and Canadians, and what about all the other countries that participated?
Perfectly preserved bomber? not quite but all the same an interesting find. Has any one ever noticed that all these under water wrecks of aircraft that are found never have the instruments in place, so someone has been down and removed them as souvenirs.
I was going to give this a thumbs up, but decided to give it a thumbs down for lying. The title says "Perfectly Preserved", clearly the title lied. I don't reward lying. So it gets a thumbs down for that. Other than that it was a nice video and I learned some cool things. Thanks for sharing, just not lying to us. Best Wishes & Blessings
My grandad was at Bourn airfield in Cambridge ww2 , and at the end of war he said they dug massive pits and bulldozed Lancaster bombers and many other stuff into these pits . I wonder if anyone still knows about them
It is a Perfectly preserved mostly destroyed, full of concretions , fragile, intact almost serviceable aircraft, incredible!!
DONT FORGET THE PILOT BAILED OUT, BUT THE AIR CRAFT LANDED On the WATER WITH LITTLE DAMAGE
Yeh was thinking where is it.The title looked was looking for a plane in mint condition,LOL ,,,,BS..
I think 'perfectly preserved' is a slight exaggeration😂😂
Clickbaiter!
I think they meant “perfectly preserved” as a fish habitat. 😂
Much better then if it hit a mountain. It was perfectly preserved while it was on the sea floor. They just couldn't lift it.
Compared to what they normally dig up
Indeed, I would have to agree - somewhat overstated and inaccurate - but no doubt it brings in the viewers :(
I'm so in love with Prof Alice. I've never enjoyed archaeology so much in my life, and I love archaeology, lol.
Yes very interesting lady indeed.
The team’s definition of perfectly preserved differs incredibly from mine.
Even "Intact" is a stretch. Interesting discovery though
The team probably think that with a lick of paint, a can of WD40 and some panel beating the plane will soon be back in the air.
Welcome to battlefield archeology! To the archeologist that is and intact dig
Buried in a Buttery Type Mud means totally encased in SHITE!
You stole my thunder
I read Ken Smalls book and actually met him not long before he passed.
He used to park his Vw golf near the tank and liked to chat about the tank and it's recovery and Operation Tiger.
He had to"buy" the tank off the American government, I think it cost him a dollar!
He had quite a struggle initially dealing with them ,as I think it was an embarrassment that a Briton was instigating a memorial ,not the US government.
Needless to say his persistance paid off!
He was a really nice guy and his book is a good read.
Can you tell me the name of the book please? I'd like to find a copy of it. Don't worry I've found it on Amazon and ordered it
