You totally glossed over the battle where Japan's northern fleet attempted to enter leyte gulf and was confronted by the inferior American fleet that was left to support the landing force. The American ships were no match for the huge Japanese ships but they courageously charged into battle with them to protect American troops on shore. It was because of these determined American Navy men that the Japanese retreated. Their actions kept 200,000 American troops on shore from being annihilated. It was one on the bravest underdog battles in the entire war.
They also had escort carriers and the only air power in that naval battle . 3 escort carriers hold the same amount of planes as one big fleet carrier .

Great video although they passed over one of the most heroic battles of all time. It was the reason the Japanese turned tail and left the battle along with their mighty Yamato battleship. The battle of Samar on the east side of the Phillipines.
That was a hell of a tale. The Yamamoto. Just the name sends chills down my spine. Like the Falaise gap or the Somme. Lot of death packed into that Battleship. They were just beautiful ships. The Musashi was her sister ship as I'm sure you all know.

As a general rule only enemy dead were shown so people at home wouldnt see their son dead on the battlefield.. FDR made an exception after the TARAWA disaster.
Agreed 100%. Perhaps if people see the result, the unvarnished reality of war they might be hesitant to start to start another one. In world war 2 FDR had to approve showing American dead, and it was toward the later stages before they finally allowed it and once they did the public started pushing for an end to the war. It gets real when you see the result.
Blurring the civilian casualties - the bodies of brutally murdered Filipinas, for example - minimizes the barbaric nature of the Japanese soldiers, and distorts reality.
Yes, now I understand the justifications on those two atomic bombs. Fighting the loyal and fierce Japanese people will be more horrendous to our history.
If you read the Potsdam Declaration of July 26th, 1945 , Truman and his advisors made it clear they wanted to remove Japan's military gov for all time and bring in human rights . As you've pointed out , this video shows why . While under US occupation Japan's Constitution was changed in 1947 - bringing Democratic and Human Rights . But the corporate neo liberal media blame Truman and woke fools believe the media . .

He retired with the rank of Lieutenant General.
This is really well put together.. Dad was a Combat Engineer Amphib Island Hopper also fought with the 32nd 126th Buna Gona and Sanananda By the time the 126th arrived at Buna Gona the jungle had overgrown the Pill boxes Dad said...we played HELL going up against them damned Pill boxes...

Pops spoke highly of the Aussies and couldn't say enough about the Fuzzy Wuzzys!
I talked to a lot of WW2 veteran. The world war two generation was the Greatest Generation. They knew what had too be done. Japan and Germany had too be defeated at all cost. Losing wasn't a choice. No surrender to the enemies. Japan or mighty Germany. American soldiers fought hard and never gave up. And defeated Japan and Germany too. Totally defeated them. Todays generation in American could never wear the boots of the Greatest Generation. Americans today are weak and could never fight a world war and win. I'm ashamed of my country and fellow Americans. And I will always be proud and thankful of the Greatest Generation. For keeping us all free. And paying for our freedom with their life's.

George C. Marshall is rarely mentioned in most WWll documentaries yet he was instrumental in the planning, supplying, and care of our military men and women.
Fact is, Douglas MacAthur reinvaded the Philippines to save his own face, indiscriminately killing hundreds of thousands of Philippine citizens as well as Japanese soldiers.

I read a book by Victor Davis Hanson who explained why America beat Japan. "The Americans learned to fight like the Japanese, but the Japanese did not learn to produce weapons, food, and fuel like the Americans." Very simply explained.
There is an error here. The number of Japanese pilots killed at midway were not massive. [23:25] They were on the carriers which did not sink quickly and thus rescued. A lot of Hiryu pilots were killed, at Midway but no from the other three carriers. It was during the fighting in the Solomons during 1942-43 that most of the well-trained carrier pilots were killed, both as a. result of naval and land operations.
😅This is not entirely accurate. Mcathur didn't lead the campaign in Papua New Guinea, he only went there once and not to the front, Australian troops did the bulk of the fighting in PNG. Aussie troops inflicted the first defeat on land to the Japanese at Milne bay PNG, defeated them in the Owen Stanley range and on to Buna,Gona and Sananda.
It is worth remembering that the Australian 9th Infantry Division handed the German Afrika Korps and the German Army their first land defeat at Tobruk 1941, when they successfully defended against none other than Rommel. Then once again, it was the Aussies 39th battalion who first stopped the Japanese on the Kokoda track in New Guinea starting in July of 42. Meanwhile, MacArthur was securing the best hotel space in Melbourne Australia from which he could plan his return to the Philippines.
You are correct of course, however, although Khalkhin Gol occurred in 1939 it is not generally regarded as a part of WW2. Japan's entry into WW2 is generally credited in Dec 41, so I will stand by my comment with an added "after the outbreak of World War 2." @@Crashed131963
Why is it that a lot of these documentaries show a particular battle using combat scenes from other battles to describe that one battle? Example, Tarawa. That island didn't have jungle, yet, this video segment shows dense jungle battle scenes. Plenty of video about Tarawa to not need to add video of say Saipan or Guam.
A tragic tale of pride, stubbornness, self-deception & deceiving others, resulting in death and destruction to others and self. When will the fallen human nature ever truly learn from history?
Of the 2,000 Japanese on Guadalcanal 85% were construction workers with only 300 soldiers.. Landing was unopposed until the IJN landed several thousand army combat troops and the fight for Henderson field ensued.. Fighting didnt stop until 1943 when Japan withdrew from the island. Heavy fighting at the Tenaru River (wrongly identified on US maps) (800 enemy killed) & Epson's ridge around Henderson Field killed nearly 2 thousand of Japanese ... TARAWA. .There was NO INLAND fighting.. Tarawa isnt wide enough to change your mind on..
Nice try, but overall not a very good documentation. By leaving important happenings unmentioned and blurring video content you cripple the historical value of it. Sorry, but no.
Documentary features should be presented as they are no BLURRING!!!. of certain scenes for people to know the horrors of war. Footages are good but this blurring makes me looked for other feature worth watching.
UA-cam is so random in its censorship. Some shows uncensored some heavily censored. Do one or the other. Just like their rules, arbitrary. Guess some random troll reports then people who’ve been posting for years with no complaints get demonetized. Guess UA-cam saves money then. I used to love it but too many ads, AI narration and this other nonsense is making it harder to watch. Not a bad video otherwise.
That's why I'm very disappointed and angry to the Japanese because they massacre innocent civilians in the Philippines but I need to accept that situation that is war ...
Don’t blurr pic it’s history it’s mean to show other respect, brave, and honourable to soldiers,Japanese or u.s they sacrifice their life for country they are hero . I repeat Do not blur
Very well done documentary. Very historical footage. Also love the colorized filming as well. Thanks for sharing a stupendous documentary. Respectfully herr Dave blackburn
There a lot of gaps in this documentary. Simply focused on examples and some land statistics. In the beginning the troops did well however they took so long because the Japanese navy out performed the US navy and all was still in the balance. US control was gained in the first place because of air supriourity including in the definte battle of port Moresby. The Japanese navy and Raboul were relentlesly bombed and air to air combat was so succesful that the navy and the troops gained a fighting change and momentum. Including the American navy turning point somewhere after the Solomon islands campaign to the point growing stronger every day end the Japanese becoming incapable of replacing the large losses in shipping and aircrafts. Completely missing this.
The lessons of past World War.. Is a serious situation too.. But peace is good to existing after the dark clouds of war are past.. But at the same.. Scenarios are may be possible to come. Especially when they have always threat in our territorial control and. The Island depense are weak.. Due to comparing situations.. If not change the situation and directions.. That why we need to prepare and depend alert.. Better to be ready.. Than be surprised.. It only reminder because an nearly election in many countries as well in our society.. Is attractive to our enemies.. Because they have no change their interests.. To take ahead when there is oppurnity..
Fact is, Douglas MacAthur reinvaded the Philippines to save his own face, indiscriminately killing hundreds of thousands of Philippine citizens as well as Japanese soldiers. It's not Japanese but Americans that massacred 100,000 civilians by indiscrimate bombardments, like they did from 1898 to 1902 on a larger scale in the Philippines.
They used term casualty, meaning taken out of action by killed in action, missing in action, wounded in action, or for that matter whether they were killed, missing, or wounded behind battle lines..
27:17, 37:25 - A potential threat, especially it now got the 2 nukes that it will never forget! 49:08- this is why it lost so completely and became an 2nd grade country
I think we've confused Guadalcanal and Tulagi. No mention of the sea and air battles that were really the heart of the Guadalcanal campaign. I'm sorry, but this is very poorly done. Superficial and misleading.
This doesn't even mention the B-29 bombing campaign against Japan. That actually did far more damage to the Japanese home islands than the 2 atomic bombs did.
You show Japan's southern fleet attacked by aircraft. That is incorrect. The southern forces were destroyed by gunfire from US battleships. Also, no P-51s were flown from US carriers..... Let's watch the technical direction a bit more closely next time...
Yep the JIN and JIA were absolutely victory or death and our beloved USN USMC and US Army were more than happy to oblige them Yamamoto tried in vain to warn his colleagues that America was a sleeping giant Japan had best allow to continue its slumber but he was to Japan's great misfortune ignored
MacArthur ego cost many, many lives. Later during the Korea war he showed his true colours, proving that he was total crazy as he presented Truman with a nuke bombing list of over 20 targets inside China for which he demanded not less than 34 nukes. Thank Truman that he fired the madman after that
Completely overlooks The Australian commitment that carried the war to Japan almost alone until 1943. And MacArthur then relegated a major Ally to secondary mopping up work. This documentary is pretty shallow

That island didn't have jungle, yet, this video segment shows dense jungle battle scenes. Plenty of video about Tarawa to not need to add video of say Saipan or Guam.
Didn’t Iwo Jima follow after the Mariana Islands?
Rezorces. Yes, can never get enough of those.
The only purpose the background music serves during attack scenes is annoyance.
In the Tarawa part, they showed the Marines on Guadalcanal at Alligator Creek.....
A tragic tale of pride, stubbornness, self-deception & deceiving others,
resulting in death and destruction to others and self.
When will the fallen human nature ever truly learn from history?
I understood that the initial landing was NOT OPPOSED. Only labor troops were anywhere nearby.
Your map shown at 13:10 wrongly places Rabaul on New Ireland and not correctly on New Britain it's southern island neighbour
Of the 2,000 Japanese on Guadalcanal 85% were construction workers with only 300 soldiers.. Landing was unopposed until the IJN landed several thousand army combat troops and the fight for Henderson field ensued.. Fighting didnt stop until 1943 when Japan withdrew from the island. Heavy fighting at the Tenaru River (wrongly identified on US maps) (800 enemy killed) & Epson's ridge around Henderson Field killed nearly 2 thousand of Japanese ... TARAWA. .There was NO INLAND fighting.. Tarawa isnt wide enough to change your mind on..
😢😅
I understood that the Tulagi detachment fought fiercely against the invader, yet the Guadalcanal group did flee immediately.
Correctly.the Japanese garrison at Guadalcanal was 180 soldiers and 1800 Korean laborers
You promised details! But too many generalities for loo many minutes and no specifics
Why is UA-cam censoring these documentaries???????
And General McArthur did return to Palo, Leyte Philippines 🇵🇭
Thank you so much👍
Nice try, but overall not a very good documentation. By leaving important happenings unmentioned and blurring video content you cripple the historical value of it. Sorry, but no.
How to defeat an enemy that won't surrender, You stop preventing them from killing Themselves and concentrate on the enemy who don't kill Themselves.
Why blurring out the dead soldiers? Very nice documentary though 🙌
It is not youtube. This is a documentary posted without copyright.
Of all the documentaries on UA-cam, this is the best.
41:15 my grandfather was in that division he was a Major. 😎
Documentary features should be presented as they are no BLURRING!!!. of certain scenes for people to know the horrors of war. Footages are good but this blurring makes me looked for other feature worth watching.
Excellent documentary but very sloppy sub-titles😮
UA-cam is so random in its censorship. Some shows uncensored some heavily censored. Do one or the other. Just like their rules, arbitrary. Guess some random troll reports then people who’ve been posting for years with no complaints get demonetized. Guess UA-cam saves money then. I used to love it but too many ads, AI narration and this other nonsense is making it harder to watch. Not a bad video otherwise.
Why show a war video if your gonna blur half of it out
That's why I'm very disappointed and angry to the Japanese because they massacre innocent civilians in the Philippines but I need to accept that situation that is war ...
日本人是一个信仰強权的民族，在它们的教育里有一等人，二等人，和三国人的概念，日本人对比它们认为低级的国家和民族是可以奴役的、凶残的，所以对待日本人只有学习美国人的铁拳制裁方法，只有比日本人更强大的铁拳才能好好的保护自己！！！
Don’t blurr pic it’s history it’s mean to show other respect, brave, and honourable to soldiers,Japanese or u.s they sacrifice their life for country they are hero . I repeat Do not blur
I don't like my videos being censored. I am an adult, I can handle the brutality of war.
Watching..brave souldiers
Very well done documentary. Very historical footage. Also love the colorized filming as well. Thanks for sharing a stupendous documentary. Respectfully herr Dave blackburn
Praise Jesus(Luke2:14)-Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
There a lot of gaps in this documentary. Simply focused on examples and some land statistics. In the beginning the troops did well however they took so long because the Japanese navy out performed the US navy and all was still in the balance. US control was gained in the first place because of air supriourity including in the definte battle of port Moresby. The Japanese navy and Raboul were relentlesly bombed and air to air combat was so succesful that the navy and the troops gained a fighting change and momentum. Including the American navy turning point somewhere after the Solomon islands campaign to the point growing stronger every day end the Japanese becoming incapable of replacing the large losses in shipping and aircrafts. Completely missing this.
Guadalcanal bro was the turning point as the Japanese Navy were superior at night time tactics. American never made that mistake again.
The lessons of past World War.. Is a serious situation too.. But peace is good to existing after the dark clouds of war are past.. But at the same.. Scenarios are may be possible to come. Especially when they have always threat in our territorial control and. The Island depense are weak.. Due to comparing situations.. If not change the situation and directions.. That why we need to prepare and depend alert.. Better to be ready.. Than be surprised.. It only reminder because an nearly election in many countries as well in our society.. Is attractive to our enemies.. Because they have no change their interests.. To take ahead when there is oppurnity..
THANKS FOR A GOOD DOCUMENTARY.
Fact is, Douglas MacAthur reinvaded the Philippines to save his own face, indiscriminately killing hundreds of thousands of Philippine citizens as well as Japanese soldiers. It's not Japanese but Americans that massacred 100,000 civilians by indiscrimate bombardments, like they did from 1898 to 1902 on a larger scale in the Philippines.
Aint no way malaria killed more servicemen than combat against Japanese soldiers. Just ain't no way.
They used term casualty, meaning taken out of action by killed in action, missing in action, wounded in action, or for that matter whether they were killed, missing, or wounded behind battle lines..
Error about saying America has never attempted amphibious landings in war. It happened at the battle of Fredericksburg in 1862.
Actually, the Marines first amphib landing was during the Revolution, storming a Brit held fort for arms & powder in the Caribbean !
the southern battle was a night action taffy 3 and her consorts did not fight that battle
7,100 Americans died on that hellhole for our freedom. RIP 🇺🇸
I decided just to watch what pieces UA-cam ...
27:17, 37:25 - A potential threat, especially it now got the 2 nukes that it will never forget!
49:08- this is why it lost so completely and became an 2nd grade country
It is about respect.
I think we've confused Guadalcanal and Tulagi. No mention of the sea and air battles that were really the heart of the Guadalcanal campaign. I'm sorry, but this is very poorly done. Superficial and misleading.
For the love of God!
You can go on the internet and photos and vids of anything!
STOP THE BLURRING !
This doesn't even mention the B-29 bombing campaign against Japan. That actually did far more damage to the Japanese home islands than the 2 atomic bombs did.
Why is parts of this video blurred?
Completely skip the Battles of Savo Island that created Iron Bottom Sound.
You show Japan's southern fleet attacked by aircraft. That is incorrect. The southern forces were destroyed by gunfire from US battleships. Also, no P-51s were flown from US carriers..... Let's watch the technical direction a bit more closely next time...
日本の前線の映像があるのが珍しい
just hiding the horror by the blurring of the dead.
Trying to blank out history whats happening
Why the bluring
Counter productive video
The irony is that the 3 nations allied against the west with inferior land transport makes the best automobile ever since.
.japan,Germany and Italy
Okay...on Feb,3rd my birthday!?!😂😂😂❤❤❤
Praise the LORD!
Yep the JIN and JIA were absolutely victory or death and our beloved USN USMC and US Army were more than happy to oblige them
Yamamoto tried in vain to warn his colleagues that America was a sleeping giant Japan had best allow to continue its slumber but he was to Japan's great misfortune ignored
japan is strong soldier...jepun sorg tapi yg serang dia berapa negara...
Blurring-out scenes is really stupid. NOTHING should be unseen!
MacArthur ego cost many, many lives. Later during the Korea war he showed his true colours, proving that he was total crazy as he presented Truman with a nuke bombing list of over 20 targets inside China for which he demanded not less than 34 nukes. Thank Truman that he fired the madman after that
Completely overlooks The Australian commitment that carried the war to Japan almost alone until 1943. And MacArthur then relegated a major Ally to secondary mopping up work. This documentary is pretty shallow
Before time American was like that now why American like this ?
America has been like it is now ever since 1861. WWII was just one of the few modern wars where the US wasn't the military aggressor.
Mc Arthur I shall return is what cemented Filipino to become and American ally.. whatever the foreign policy.. American did return ...
