Wasn't that movie 1917 about a kid running to send a message? I never thought about that till now, that 1917 is basically Hitler's World War I combat experience...
I served in the US Army for four years including a year in Nam in 68-69. Young men make good soldiers because we start out thinking we are ten feet tall and bulletproof. Reality soon disabusses us of that notion. Hitler's fortunate (for him) survival may have had the unfortunate (for all of us) consequence of giving him the idea that this "perceived" invulnerability would last throughout his life including into adulthood. We all know how that worked out.
3:55 I agree. It's fun but speculative to wonder how history would have unfolded absent a specific leader. If Churchill hadn't existed for instance, perhaps WWI would have never happened. And without WWI, no Versailles Treaty. No Versailles Treaty then no Hitler.
Ik als nerd heb vaak genoeg deze geschiedenis gelezen of op beelden gezien. MAAR zoals jij het brengt is compleet anders, zoals ik gezien heb te voren. Je trekt mensen zo in dit korte stukje het verhaal in. Bijzonder ook om te zijn toen Hilter nog gewoon was en een held ongeacht zijn kant toen in de wo1 was hij een held. Das een feit. Wat erna kwam is inderdaad geschiedenis. En dat verwoord je in mijn optiek perfect.
It was a Jewish solider that awarded him that Iron Cross...Hugo Gutman

True. I that got me thinking, if i would experience the same if i was in such a situation. Probably the same.

Did you get any iron crosses? Show any signs of bravery? No you probably woulda been one of the ones hiding behind everyone
