    It always breaks my heart watching war film footage and seeing the beautiful old architecture that was destroyed beyond saving , but I've been in many of these towns and cities and it amazes me how much was able to be rebuilt back to its historical significance. Fortunately there were some medieval towns barely touched by this war and that's a definite treat , if you enjoy that sort of thing . It's easy for me to understand how Parisiennes feel about Paris. Too bad all the great Europe cites were not spared....war sucks in many ways..

      I agree 100% that the whole generation was the greatest, and I would bet that some, if not all, those who went into combat thought as you do that they could not be so brave, but I would also say that until you go into the same or similar situations you don’t know what your capable of doing, especially if you are defending your country, home, or loved ones. Civilian citizens in occupied territories and sometimes unoccupied nations, like the United Kingdom, had to endure bombings, rationing, shortages in almost everything and the constant threat of invasion, they were brave resilient and determined as well to defeat the axis powers. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    Thank you for airing this Duc video. I had never seen it before, even though I'm sure my parents,relatives,& friend's may have? The contents of this production was truly amazing too me. The short length as Gen Eisenhower, stated was necessary due to time restraints. But OMG the detail, facts, and clear concise, delivery of the subject to me was fantastic. To all that served "World Wide", not only in combat, but whatever capacity they were in. We the people of the "World" owe them everything, we have. The end result of WWII, was that it had been a complete Global War. To me it is amazing that seventy six years ago, that gigantic struggle ended. Here today it is April of 2021, and the World as we have known it through out our lives hasn't really changed much. I will leave that point open to one's own thoughts, or conclusions. After all I was just airing my view point. Thanks: ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️🤗🤗🤗🤗

    In case people hadn't noticed, compare the British narrator's words in this to the Chorus in Shakespeare's Henry V. "It seemed, almost, as though the sun stood still, till our free people, full of rage and power, heaved through the air the ponderous spear of war." That's blank verse in iambic pentameter, and, I believe, that's Laurence Olivier.

    It is still remarkable that so many german soldiers kept up fanatical resistance for so long. Many of them must have known the war was lost by 1944 (in hindsight much earlier than 1944), officers and politicians in particular. So why suffer millions more civilian and military casualties? What drove them? Loyalty, patriotism, brotherhood, fear, hatred, honour, maybe a mix of all of those factors? It must have been so frustrating for the Allies too, knowing you have defeated your enemy but still suffer because of their stubornness. It would have driven me mad to see my mates still getting killed or wounded so close to the end.

    A total of seven British and American Battleships participated in the fighting in Normandy, France. Of these, five directly participated in the bombardment on June 6th, 1944; while the other two remained in reserve, but would join the bombardment force later in June. Three of the ships were American; many American Battleships were busy in the Pacific Theater.

My father was always my buddy, and a real WWII hero!! He enlisted ist serving in the Fighting CBS, did five campaigns in Europe, most time in Germany and France... Served over 8/9 years in the US ARMY and was promoted to Staff Sargeant . He was hit in his left leg with shrap metal and loved grossing out my sister and brother and I by wiggling around the blue chunks visible to our eyes... (The lead glowed blue under the skin) bad weather made him limp... My Dad's brother was a bomber pilot the same time my father was in Germany... Their war photos r amazing!

The Allies finally won because they were superior in men, weapons and owned the skies. The main battle in the WWII took place in July - August 1943, at KURSK, Russia.
