Reich and Rationing Day 2: 9th April 1945

We're staying in Italy for today's episode for not one, but two incredible stories of heroism that both happened on 9th April back in 1945.
My wife and I decided to attempt to live off of Second World War food rationing for a month. We chose the month up to VE Day, the last month of the war in Europe. My wife is far better at social media than I am so for regular updates on how the rationing is going, please follow her instagram @thymeforhomelife or search #VictoryRationsProject.
For this month I aim to run a diary of sorts looking at some of the events that happened in the last month of the war in Europe. This includes looking at accounts and diaries of people who were there both in the halls of power and on the battlefield. It won't be an exhaustive account but I hope to get an idea of what was going on in the collapse of the Third Reich.

Thank you for a great video! What magnificent men they were. I remember hearing a lot about the Indian Army. I really enjoy all your videos and talks about life in ww2.

Very informative video. I had no idea that the Indian army was that large during WWII.
