Hello brothers, Christian here. A common misconception about Christianity is that the bible says "thou shalt not kill" but it was mistranslated it actually says in the original Hebrew text is "thou shalt not murder" so that is why in the eyes of God killing during war is permitted in Christianity. I dont know but Islam Christianity and Jew-deism ar all Abrahamic religions that share many parts of each others text so im sure its a similar situation in Islam. In Hacksaw Ridge he is portraying a version of Christianity called 7th Day Adventist that are very literal in what the bible says. Its sorta like the equivalent of Sunni Wahhabism. Hope this helps gentlemen. Love your reactions. I look forward to the day when both sides will rid their own religions of extremists and we can live together side by side without fear or suspicion.
My great uncle was the driver of this exact tank in WW2. Him and his crew were killed by the Hitler youth using a Panzerfaust (German Anti-Tank Round Launcher) When they were taking the German city of Leipzig on April 18th 1945. He was 25 years old and a member of the 741st Tank battalion attached to the 2nd. Infantry Division. My great uncle died 17 days before the German Field marshal Wilhelm Keitel had the German Army surrender on 8 May 1945. My great uncle started on the Normandy beaches and was so close to making it out alive. R.I.P. Uncle George.
"Are you saved?" He is basically asking if Norman is a Christian. Norman says he goes to church and they say "That's not what he asked you" because just practicing the religion does not make you a true believer in your heart.
The U.S. didn't go to an "all volunteer" army until 1973. A lot of the folks who served during WWII did volunteer. But a lot of them were drafted as well.
The majority of served in WW2 were drafted like 2/3rds only 1/3rd volunteered.. Most people dont realize that in Vietnam 2/3rds were volunteers only 1/3rd drafted
Jesus does say to turn the other cheek, but this is a metaphor for letting go of your ego and pride. Basically it means most things aren’t worth fighting for. Jesus also tells us that if you don’t own a sword to sell your cloak and buy one. Meaning self defense is righteous.
God, I hate these fake face reactions on these reaction thumbnails. The only few instance that you should have that face is if you witnessed a 5-year-old getting ran over by a semi-trailer truck. Oh, and just in case: "So don't watch them then." - rarely, but not this one. "You just came here just to say that?" - freedom of speech.
Jesus Christ is God!! John 1:1 He who believes in Jesus Christ has everlasting life; he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him. John 3:36
The green and red lights you see when they are shooting machine guns a called tracer rounds and are placed about every 10 rounds. They’re built with a small pyrotechnic charge in their base. When fired, the pyrotechnic composition is ignited by the burning powder and burns very brightly, making the projectile trajectory visible to the naked eye. This allows the shooter to visually trace the trajectory of the projectile and make necessary ballistic corrections. As for the German soldier letting Norman go at the end, I’ve always felt that he was a lot like Norman and hated killing so, he did what his conscience told him to do.
@@Mr.Schitzengigglez Baldwin-iv445 is right though, "Inspired is more accurate" the real story of Lafayette Green Pool is nothing like what they showed in Fury, "The Fat Electrician did an awesome video on it" very true.
Yes everybody goes through basic training. He probably just wasn't familiar with the then new at that time of the war .45 caliber "grease gun" sub-machine gun. In basic training they qualified with the M-1 Garand rifle.
At the start of ww2 dec7 1941 ,the us population was 134 million ,men,women,and children. Nearly 15 million men and 1 million women would serve during ww2. The draft age started out ages 19 to 26. During the war the age would be dropped to 18 and in increments raised to 46. If you were fit,fit you went to combat units regardless of age. There are less than 90 thousand ww2 vets still living,most in their late 90's. Don't ever miss a chance to thank them and all who have served.
as a former tanker, I was a gunner on the M60, I give this movie and reaction two thumbs up. NOTE: the era of the tank is ending. There will be uses, but with drones and other tech, 90% of its cost, effectiveness is lost.
That Tiger Tank, is the only running Tiger left, today. It was captured in Africa. And as the movie illustrates, it took on average, 6 Allied tanks to defeat one Tiger.
For the record..the two young soldier and girl go into the room and find "love"...that's why she was happy and smiled at her aunt. The point was they are young and alive..tommorrow they might not be..so let them live a little....then the bombing and her being dead proved that Pitt was right
Norman is going through what most recruits experience if they are sent to an experienced unit as a replacement. The original guys have already lost friends and aren't feeling very friendly about new arrivals, who don't know anything. They also don't want to get to know the replacement because replacements die -again, because they don't know anything. What makes it worse is that this late in the war, all the combat units had taken losses and were short of men, so they were shoving half-trained recruits forward to fill the gaps. Norman arrives at the camp after 8 weeks in the army=he must have been shipped out immediately after finishing basic training, without any advanced training, because crossing the atlantic and getting to the front would have taken a couple of weeks.
The main reason why he made Norman kill that specific guy is because he is wearing a EUA uniform. If you use your enemies uniform and they catch you, you loose your rights as a prisioner of war, and they pretty much can do whatever they want with you, so that was not a war crime.
All Army recruits were trained on the operation of the M1 Garand at that time. Coonass was showing Norman how to 'operate' the M3 submachine gun which recruits were not familiar with.
The green light you saw were tracers. Every third round is a tracer so machine gunners can see where their rounds are going. German tracers were green, the US were red.
Some bullets in heavy machine guns were chemically treated to be luminescent when fired so the gunner can see the path of the bullets it aids in aiming. They are called tracer rounds. That is the laser effect you see.
The big German tanks were Tigers (That's a real one in the film BTW- The only running one left in the world. Look up the Bovington Tank Museum's UA-cam channel for more videos on that particular tank) Panthers were the other really feared ones. Others were just panzers ("Panzer" is the generic German word for "tank"- It literally translates to "armor". In German military speak, it's shorthand for "Panzerkampfwagen", which translates roughly to "armored fighting vehicle".)
This is an accurate depiction of the horrors and mental effects of combat, ptsd isnt easy to deal with and nobody comes home the same person they were when they were sent over
During world War 2 people were drafted into military service. The draft was ended after Vietnam. Since then the American military is an all volunteer force.
You asked a question about "why were they 'scoring' the shells?"... I looked up the answer, and it WAS for what I thought it was: "In the movie "Fury," scoring artillery shells serves a practical purpose in the context of warfare. The act of scoring the shells, which involves making a series of cuts or grooves in the casing, is intended to create a more effective fragmentation pattern upon detonation. This increases the lethality of the shell by ensuring that it breaks apart into smaller, more deadly shrapnel pieces that can inflict greater damage on enemy troops and equipment. The practice reflects the gritty realism of the film, showcasing the resourcefulness and ingenuity of soldiers in combat situations. It also emphasizes the harsh realities of war, where soldiers must often make do with limited resources and find ways to enhance their effectiveness in battle. Overall, the scoring of artillery shells symbolizes the desperate measures taken by soldiers to survive and succeed in the brutal environment of World War II.
The things glowing in the germans were phosphorus rounds. They're used to burn buildings or supplies. When phosphorous hit human flesh they burn a person from the inside out.
"Willie P, Willie P, Sticks like glue! Burns old ladies and babies too!" That's a song we used to sing when I was in the Infantry. Pretty sick when I think about it in hindsight.
They are adjusting the timer on the rounds on when it goes off. When he said " bounce it" the round will hit the ground 1st and go off after a short time
You guys are very nice, you are never vulgar, respectful and have class. You are watching the duality of men they have an eternal struggle of the flesh and spirit. When we are separated from God at times we are tempted but when we are close to God and His Word there is mercy grace and forgiveness and the fruit of the spirit peace love patience self control kindness long suffering. This heals all things
whats the green laser ? hahaha had me laughing . These are called tracer rounds , if shot they will glow , usually every 5th round is a tracer to help your visual when its getting dark . And In war its kill or be killed as hard as it sounds buts thats a fact ! Great reaction u 2 as always , Inshallah.
A very interesting Series you could check out is "Generation War" (german Title, unsere Mütter, unsere Väter), it shows WW2 following the Stories of some german friends from the german side
Norman was a clerk/typist and support units like that no offense intended arent trained to shoot on the scale of a combat unit because theyre rear echelon/ support units
Only to a small extent - The fight with the tiger is BS. Tiger in cover and entrenched, he could have taken out all the Shermans with no problem. The last thing a German tank commander would have done was to come out of cover; Tiger commanders were well-trained, experienced specialists. The film is not a contemporary historical document but simply well-made American Popcorn Cinema.
@@thorstenrohrhirsch3482 Fury was also a M1A2 Sherman with the high velocity 76mm cannon. Fury could have easily penetrated the frontal armor of the Tiger. That 76mm was fitted to the Sherman specifically to deal with German heavy armor.
That plane you saw here and in the Saving Private Ryan is the P-51 Mustang, one of the greatest planes ever made. That plane turned the tide of the American strategic bombing campaign and arguably was the beginning of American Air Dominance that exists with us now until this day. Ww2 was the trial by hellfire that made america into one of the greatest warfighting countries that exist today.
When you in the army you get qualified to use a basic rifle, other weapons have training on how to use them, that said if youre a clerk or whatever basically the only time you ever touch a weapon is in basic training, after that.... Basic training usually consists of basic survival skills, learning drill movement, the processes in which the army uses to do business, some weapon time, and mostly just how to be in the army. After that is usually job specific training so if you are infrantryman or tank crewman you go do another course to learn how to do all the skills related to that. Mightve been a lil different in the 40's but its more or less the same
the german tank used (yes there was CGI fighting) is the famous Tiger T131. the only functional Tiger tank in the world. it can kill a Sherman tank from over 2km away.
Part of the army? If not it doesn't matter sir, my grandmother was also that time of a year and survived bur died, never asking about her and our grandparents stories in their lives during japanese occupations 😢
All recruits are trained in bootcamp with the main service issue rifle. If your specialty isn't combat related you might not have experience with specific weapons. Norman's Army job was not combat related.
The white glowing fires on Germans escaping from the building were White Phosphorus burns, aka "Willy Pete." Magnesium fragments that burn at 5000 degrees.
My grandfather's both fought honorably, one in France . Yes, many over years had seen what Hitler was doing to Europe at the time. So many brave young, intelligent ,strong men went off to fight for their country. When the men returned, if still in one piece physically, many , including my one grandfather had nightmares and had to sleep separately from his wife his entire life.
45:53 That Tank is a "Tiger" a very feared german heavy tank. Around ~1300 of those were produced during WW2, they were rare, but way more powerful than the american "Sherman" Tank (of which the Americans built around 50.000)
He means that there is a difference in between ideas and reality. Most wars where fought over ideals. This ideals where ment to bring a better world, at least those who started them thought so. But history is violent, despite all this ideals, there has not been many peace time through out history
I'm not sure if you've done a reaction to a Vietnam War film. If you decide to, I suggest two of the best. "Apocalypse Now", and " We Were Soldiers". It's easy to see why America lost, and the sheer scale of brutality and destruction. Great reaction, as usual. Brad Pitt and the entire cast were amazing. They really developed each character.
This Movie is based on Two real people. Lafayette G. Pool AKA War Daddy best US tanker in WW2. The final battle is loosely based on Audie Murphy the most highly American soldier of WW2. When Audie fought the Germans he was by himself in a burning M10 Tank Destroyer not an M4 Sherman. That fight is what won him the Medal of Honor
Upgunned late model M4/76mm like 'Fury' had enhanced cannons,armor and ammo storage protection, and were far less vulnerable as depicted here. The earlier M4/75mm versions remained popular, as the ammo their 75mm cannons fired ammo that was far more effectiive against the German anti-tank gun crews who, compared to German tanks, remained their main threat. Last encounter would have ended nearly instantly as massed infantry with or without Panzerfausts are any tank's nemesis.
Not sure if it was talked about by someone else, but where they were talking about the horses: If a horse is wounded, it either needs veterinarian care quickly, or it will die in a lot of agony. So they are talking about mercy killing the horses. Very sad :(
This is a story about a group of men who are in the process of losing their humanity. At the end, they sacrifice themselves to save others. Also, notice, at the end shot, they died on a cross.
When you train in boot camp, you do basic rifleman training with a rifle specifically. All other weapons are special weapons training. So he has never seen or touched a grease gun (which is that guns nickname).
Have the Brothers reacted to Hacksaw Ridge? It is based on a true American conscientious objector (he refused to touch a gun) and survived as a true hero.
The part he talks about the horses is because they were wounded, think about it horses have no sense of how weapons, mines etc. work and they are bigger therefore a easier target for planes. Point is they put a lot of animals out of their misery and felt bad afterwards but just ignored it in the bigger Picture bc there was so much death
The German tanks were not really all that technologically superior, most were about on par with the Sherman but the Sherman was built for easy of manufacture and maintenance plus it had to fit into the logistical needs of moving large amounts of equipment across oceans. The Germans didn't have that issue and they needed more defensive tanks to fight superior numbers on both fronts. The Panther and Tiger tanks did have better armour though the latter Shermans were about on par with the Tiger I for effective frontal armour but the Tigers had much bigger guns. However, there were very few Tigers, not even that many Panthers, the majority of the tanks they faced were PzIV's and SPGs(tank destroyers), which the Sherman could easily deal with.
The scene with the shell and the knife, some shell are designed to explode only when hitting a tank, he is adjusting the shell so that it explode on the soft ground.
Not quite. Shells explode after the primer in the nose is impacted and the fuse is set off. The loader is using his knife to adjust the fuse to increase the time between impact and explosion, that way the shell could bounce and then explode after a small delay.
I know you two only really watch movies and shows, but there is a channel, that allows reactions. he talks about american history and how things went, he recently talked about how crazy WWII was in one of his recent videos, in WWII america basically had no army we had the 19th largest military in the world. portugal was 18 which is the size of one of the U.S's 50 states. we had 150,000 soilders in the whole military, at our peak we had 16 million total during WWII. we were sending 18 y.os who had got a few weeks of training and then got sent out to the front line to now kill. at this time and in this county. they never saw death, other then maybe a passing of a loved one. that was the majority.
What you have to understand about Christians, it's that we make a clear distinction between those who devotes their lives to god, and the commoners who are "secular", which means "live in the century". That's why often, you will find people not necessarily abiding to strict religious principle, contrary to clerics who will apply them 100%. Ex: we know we shouldn't drink by religious principles, but we still do, it's in the culture. Now at first you would think that it makes us hypocritical, and that most of the population just don't follow God, but the principle is that true goodness comes from the conscious choice between good and evil. In other words, you need to have free will and not be forced into religion. It's also a recognition that we are all sinners, and that our clerics are there to lead us to be better people, but that we don't have to be clerics ourselves, just good men. If drinking makes you a bad men, you have to stop. If not and you're able to control it, then it's okay (but in most of the times not preferable). So there's a lot of nuances in our approach to religion, and you'll see secular people sometimes bring it up as a moral perspective, a guideline to do good, but at the end of the day, only priests are bound to strict literalist behavior/clothes/etc. It's God's task to judge us in the end, not other people. Obviously, in this movie, the guy played by Shia Leboeuf is more religious than others, but he's still not a priest, he's secular, hence why takes a last sip of alcohol like his brothers for his final stance while reciting bible verses to inspire them. He's being a good and pure man, even in his sinners clothes, and we are hopeful that God will recognize that, because it was the rightful thing to do in this very moment.
I love that you guys practice the REAL ISLAM ....I am not RELIGIOUS at all but I appreciate that you two observe inherent human morality as a guide to humanity, so to speak......I don't believe you need Religion to understand morality....
Do not be deceived!! Those who do not believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ are still under condemnation for their sins! John 3:18 Jesus Christ is God! John 1:1 You are in my prayers that you come to repentance and believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ: in His death burial and resurrection on the third day for your justification and mine that we don’t deserve! Those who believe this TRUTH have everlasting life, those who deny this TRUTH will die in their sins! These are the words of Jesus Christ Himself: Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I AM HE, you will die in your sins. John 8:24 REPENT and BELIEVE the gospel of your salvation before it’s too late!!
Poor kid😢 During WWII and Vietnam the draft was activated, if you weren't in college, or have a farm and family to tend to, or have enough money or influence to buy your way out of it, you were drafted. No choice.
A lot of the people who were drafted weren’t soldiers to begin with, just everyday people with no training at Allan they were literally handed a gun and told to shoot.

My favorite line is when Pitt’s character says- “Ideals are peaceful, history is violent”.
My great uncle was the driver of this exact tank in WW2. Him and his crew were killed by the Hitler youth using a Panzerfaust (German Anti-Tank Round Launcher) When they were taking the German city of Leipzig on April 18th 1945.

"Are you saved?" He is basically asking if Norman is a Christian. Norman says he goes to church and they say "That's not what he asked you" because just practicing the religion does not make you a true believer in your heart.

he was not marking them he was setting the fuse to make them able to bounce
Norman was a clerk/typist and support units like that no offense intended arent trained to shoot on the scale of a combat unit because theyre rear echelon/ support units
They are adjusting the fuse of the rounds. Some rounds can have a delay to detonate on impact
They are adjusting the time when tank shells will detonate after fired, taking out safety measures
this movie is one of the most realistic and accurate depictions of WW2 tank warfare⚛😀
Only to a small extent - The fight with the tiger is BS. Tiger in cover and entrenched, he could have taken out all the Shermans with no problem. The last thing a German tank commander would have done was to come out of cover; Tiger commanders were well-trained, experienced specialists. The film is not a contemporary historical document but simply well-made American Popcorn Cinema.
@@thorstenrohrhirsch3482 I bow to your obvious expertise in this subject. TU.⚛😀
@@thorstenrohrhirsch3482 Fury was also a M1A2 Sherman with the high velocity 76mm cannon. Fury could have easily penetrated the frontal armor of the Tiger. That 76mm was fitted to the Sherman specifically to deal with German heavy armor.
the United States was not an all volunteer military during ww2. Norman, and probably most of the rest of them were drafted.
That plane you saw here and in the Saving Private Ryan is the P-51 Mustang, one of the greatest planes ever made. That plane turned the tide of the American strategic bombing campaign and arguably was the beginning of American Air Dominance that exists with us now until this day.
Ww2 was the trial by hellfire that made america into one of the greatest warfighting countries that exist today.
When you in the army you get qualified to use a basic rifle, other weapons have training on how to use them, that said if youre a clerk or whatever basically the only time you ever touch a weapon is in basic training, after that....
Basic training usually consists of basic survival skills, learning drill movement, the processes in which the army uses to do business, some weapon time, and mostly just how to be in the army. After that is usually job specific training so if you are infrantryman or tank crewman you go do another course to learn how to do all the skills related to that. Mightve been a lil different in the 40's but its more or less the same
He’s setting the fuse on the rounds. So they are relayed burst, etc
The knife was to set the fuse on the tank shell.
the german tank used (yes there was CGI fighting) is the famous Tiger T131. the only functional Tiger tank in the world. it can kill a Sherman tank from over 2km away.
The loader is using his knife on the shell .. there's a screw, you can change the fuse settings and such
This movie has a lot of swearing, but there is also a redemption arc and many biblical references. A very good film 😊.
and my grandfather was in occupied Manila, in 1944.
Part of the army? If not it doesn't matter sir, my grandmother was also that time of a year and survived bur died, never asking about her and our grandparents stories in their lives during japanese occupations 😢
All recruits are trained in bootcamp with the main service issue rifle. If your specialty isn't combat related you might not have experience with specific weapons. Norman's Army job was not combat related.
The white glowing fires on Germans escaping from the building were White Phosphorus burns, aka "Willy Pete." Magnesium fragments that burn at 5000 degrees.
My grandfather's both fought honorably, one in France . Yes, many over years had seen what Hitler was doing to Europe at the time. So many brave young, intelligent ,strong men went off to fight for their country. When the men returned, if still in one piece physically, many , including my one grandfather had nightmares and had to sleep separately from his wife his entire life.
45:53 That Tank is a "Tiger" a very feared german heavy tank. Around ~1300 of those were produced during WW2, they were rare, but way more powerful than the american "Sherman" Tank (of which the Americans built around 50.000)
You guys have to watch hacksaw ridge for one of your next movies
Great job guys. This movie had a tremendous acting job by Brad Pitt. I hope you get to watch Taken or the Equalizer soon.
Taken is very good.
It was a tremendous acting job by all of them definitely Jon and Shia
The word you're looking for is "liability" not reliability. Great reaction tho guys
So glad you enjoyed Terminator 2!! It's time to watch the third Back to the Future to finish the trilogy, and also 3 & 4 of Hunger Games
30:34 that was a German MG42 the fasted shooting gun of the time, shoots 1200 rounds a minute
He means that there is a difference in between ideas and reality. Most wars where fought over ideals. This ideals where ment to bring a better world, at least those who started them thought so. But history is violent, despite all this ideals, there has not been many peace time through out history
33:20 the scene was showing how the nazis would rather kill themselves than admit defeat, so it’s really no use showing mercy
I'm not sure if you've done a reaction to a Vietnam War film.
If you decide to, I suggest two of the best. "Apocalypse Now", and " We Were Soldiers". It's easy to see why
America lost, and the sheer scale of brutality and destruction.
Great reaction, as usual. Brad Pitt and the entire cast were amazing. They really developed each character.
It's my understanding that the director had them living in the tank for a couple months so that they'd have a more realistic experience
1:55 a Turk move 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This Movie is based on Two real people. Lafayette G. Pool AKA War Daddy best US tanker in WW2. The final battle is loosely based on Audie Murphy the most highly American soldier of WW2. When Audie fought the Germans he was by himself in a burning M10 Tank Destroyer not an M4 Sherman. That fight is what won him the Medal of Honor
Upgunned late model M4/76mm like 'Fury' had enhanced cannons,armor and ammo storage protection, and were far less vulnerable as depicted here. The earlier M4/75mm versions remained popular, as the ammo their 75mm cannons fired ammo that was far more effectiive against the German anti-tank gun crews who, compared to German tanks, remained their main threat.
Last encounter would have ended nearly instantly as massed infantry with or without Panzerfausts are any tank's nemesis.
Not sure if it was talked about by someone else, but where they were talking about the horses:
If a horse is wounded, it either needs veterinarian care quickly, or it will die in a lot of agony. So they are talking about mercy killing the horses. Very sad :(
This is a story about a group of men who are in the process of losing their humanity. At the end, they sacrifice themselves to save others. Also, notice, at the end shot, they died on a cross.
When you train in boot camp, you do basic rifleman training with a rifle specifically. All other weapons are special weapons training. So he has never seen or touched a grease gun (which is that guns nickname).
Have the Brothers reacted to Hacksaw Ridge? It is based on a true American conscientious objector (he refused to touch a gun) and survived as a true hero.
Tanks are wild.. might be interesting to check out failed designs, there's a few. The Ww2 maneuvering and mass tactics .. also wild... 👍
Bob tank:
The part he talks about the horses is because they were wounded, think about it horses have no sense of how weapons, mines etc. work and they are bigger therefore a easier target for planes. Point is they put a lot of animals out of their misery and felt bad afterwards but just ignored it in the bigger Picture bc there was so much death
This butiful tank shots at the end is white fosforus rounds.
It is now forbiden.
he arm amunition with screwdriver.
The German tanks were not really all that technologically superior, most were about on par with the Sherman but the Sherman was built for easy of manufacture and maintenance plus it had to fit into the logistical needs of moving large amounts of equipment across oceans. The Germans didn't have that issue and they needed more defensive tanks to fight superior numbers on both fronts. The Panther and Tiger tanks did have better armour though the latter Shermans were about on par with the Tiger I for effective frontal armour but the Tigers had much bigger guns. However, there were very few Tigers, not even that many Panthers, the majority of the tanks they faced were PzIV's and SPGs(tank destroyers), which the Sherman could easily deal with.
if u like tank films u should check Beast of war 1988. It is about russian agresion on Afganistan. Great movie.
How have you guys not done Fight Club yet?
The scene with the shell and the knife, some shell are designed to explode only when hitting a tank, he is adjusting the shell so that it explode on the soft ground.
Not quite. Shells explode after the primer in the nose is impacted and the fuse is set off. The loader is using his knife to adjust the fuse to increase the time between impact and explosion, that way the shell could bounce and then explode after a small delay.
Where is your hacksaw ridge reaction? You watched it?
Yes. They did have parachutes which is how they jumped into France on D Day
You guys need to watch an older war movie-‘Patton”. Part of it takes place in Algiers.
I know you two only really watch movies and shows, but there is a channel, that allows reactions. he talks about american history and how things went, he recently talked about how crazy WWII was in one of his recent videos, in WWII america basically had no army we had the 19th largest military in the world. portugal was 18 which is the size of one of the U.S's 50 states. we had 150,000 soilders in the whole military, at our peak we had 16 million total during WWII. we were sending 18 y.os who had got a few weeks of training and then got sent out to the front line to now kill. at this time and in this county. they never saw death, other then maybe a passing of a loved one. that was the majority.
You guys should watch bishop Mai
21:54 - the singlemost gangsta moment in 2024 😎
33:07 - 'Peace sells. . . but who's *_buying?'_*
Many young people lied about their age to get into the army - 16 years old 17 years old
I don’t know if you guys have seen it but “Troy” is a great movie with Brad Pitt 💯👍🏾 you should check it out
that tank commander was a beast during ww2, who brad is playing
War daddy ❤
19:24 are they talking about algerian war?
What you have to understand about Christians, it's that we make a clear distinction between those who devotes their lives to god, and the commoners who are "secular", which means "live in the century". That's why often, you will find people not necessarily abiding to strict religious principle, contrary to clerics who will apply them 100%. Ex: we know we shouldn't drink by religious principles, but we still do, it's in the culture. Now at first you would think that it makes us hypocritical, and that most of the population just don't follow God, but the principle is that true goodness comes from the conscious choice between good and evil. In other words, you need to have free will and not be forced into religion. It's also a recognition that we are all sinners, and that our clerics are there to lead us to be better people, but that we don't have to be clerics ourselves, just good men. If drinking makes you a bad men, you have to stop. If not and you're able to control it, then it's okay (but in most of the times not preferable). So there's a lot of nuances in our approach to religion, and you'll see secular people sometimes bring it up as a moral perspective, a guideline to do good, but at the end of the day, only priests are bound to strict literalist behavior/clothes/etc. It's God's task to judge us in the end, not other people. Obviously, in this movie, the guy played by Shia Leboeuf is more religious than others, but he's still not a priest, he's secular, hence why takes a last sip of alcohol like his brothers for his final stance while reciting bible verses to inspire them. He's being a good and pure man, even in his sinners clothes, and we are hopeful that God will recognize that, because it was the rightful thing to do in this very moment.
I love that you guys practice the REAL ISLAM ....I am not RELIGIOUS at all but I appreciate that you two observe inherent human morality as a guide to humanity, so to speak......I don't believe you need Religion to understand morality....
Do not be deceived!!
Those who do not believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ are still under condemnation for their sins!
John 3:18
Jesus Christ is God!
John 1:1
You are in my prayers that you come to repentance and believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ: in His death burial and resurrection on the third day for your justification and mine that we don’t deserve! Those who believe this TRUTH have everlasting life, those who deny this TRUTH will die in their sins!
These are the words of Jesus Christ Himself: Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I AM HE, you will die in your sins.
John 8:24
REPENT and BELIEVE the gospel of your salvation before it’s too late!!
@@Mike-mj8oj LOL, a human wrote that...I like fiction too but I don't accept it as reality
Poor kid😢 During WWII and Vietnam the draft was activated, if you weren't in college, or have a farm and family to tend to, or have enough money or influence to buy your way out of it, you were drafted. No choice.
A lot of the people who were drafted weren’t soldiers to begin with, just everyday people with no training at Allan they were literally handed a gun and told to shoot.
Tiger tanks.had 11 inches of steel around them
