@lockjawcroc will do that ma'am
The germans who complain about the food shortages should be reminded of stalingrad and also the concentration camps where people died of starvation on a daily basis at the hands of the Germans.
You'd think he'd be more appreciative of the American gaurd who enticed him to the fence to give him the chicken to eat.
It's difficult to truly understand their situation. Yes, he's grateful for the chicken, but he is facing great unknown. His only desire is to go home to his wife and child, and currently, he faces a great unknown.
One thing I’ve noticed with fascism is that they instill in their people sense of victimhood. When you think you have more right than everyone else its easy to see things in your favor.Even as they were exterminating the Jews they felt like they were the victims who were just saving their country.
Former soldier here, id be sooo pissed at my people if we carried on like that in front of the enemy if captured. How embarrassing
Says prisoners can be thankful for the smallest sympathy. But gets 2 cans of rations. Meat and beans and cookies chocolate and cigarettes and curses the americans for it. This man is the most annoying ww2 memoir ive seen yet.
@4:35 the original author of this had the arrogance to blame the destruction of the French city not on “the defenders of the city” (by which he was referring to the German invaders/occupiers) but on “the attackers” (the Allies). My God the sheer arrogance and stupidity to not recognize that the entire war and hence the destruction of that city and countless others, and the deaths of dozens of millions of people on all sides was TOTALLY started by Hitler and the Nazis and the millions of everyday Germans, who - at least in the beginning and for a long time after - supported it.
I can't imagine being glad they lost.
I'm sure even my grandfather Jack who was wounded in Germany, if he could see America, France, etc today...? Yeah, great places. In 1938 Germany was the only great place on the planet.
Jews, gypsies, communists, homosexuals in camps ain't going to keep me up at night.
People call Germany evil for euthanizing the handicapped. America gave them LSD to see what they'd do. Gave blacks Syphilis injections.
We live in a literal nightmare end times world. The Third Reich wasn't that
Keep on using those correct pronouns
What do you think about Paris right now at this moment? Whose fault is it now?
@@user-ci5oh2qj9n “we live in a literal nightmare end times - the Third Reich wasn’t that”. The present state and trajectory of the world and America is crappy, but in any scenario where Hitler and the Nazis would have prevailed over the free world, it truly would have been the end of all civilization. You either have to be delusional or have no real understanding of the epitome of evil that Hitler and Nazism represented.
This is a direct quote from Wikipedia under: 'Bombing of France during World War II'.
"Between the time of the German victory in the Battle of France and the liberation of the country, the Allied Forces bombed many locations in France. In all 1,570 French cities and towns were bombed by the Allies between June 1940 and May 1945. The total number of civilians killed was, at least, of 68,778 men, women and children (including the 2,700 civilians killed in Royan).
The total number of injured was more than 100,000. The total number of houses completely destroyed by the bombings was 432,000, and the number of partly destroyed houses was 890,000. The cities that saw the most destruction were the following":
Saint-Nazaire (Loire Atlantique): 100%
Tilly-la-Campagne (Calvados): 96%
Calais (Pas-de-Calais) : 95%
Vire (Calvados): 95%
Royan (Charente-Maritime): 95% [3]
Le Portel (Pas-de-Calais) : 94%
Dunkerque (Nord) : 90%
Villers-Bocage (Calvados): 88%
Boulogne-sur-Mer (Pas-de-Calais) : 85%
Le Havre (Seine-Maritime): 82%
Beauvais (Oise) : 80%
Lorient (Morbihan) : 80 %
Brest (Finistère) : 80 %
Saint-Lô (Manche): 77%
Falaise (Calvados): 76%
Lisieux (Calvados): 75%
@@rosesprog1722 I don’t dispute that the Allies bombed many French towns and cities and many thousands of French civilians died. You missed my point, which was that had Hitler and the Germans never had started WW2, NONE of what happened afterwards, including the aforementioned destruction of the French towns and cities, and the deaths of millions upon millions of soldiers and civilians on all sides would have been averted.
Not that I mind, but this is a repeat from a story from a month or two ago.
Different perspectives about the same human tragedies.
The German soldiers fighting to stand in the front lines to get the provisions.
Stepping on their weaker fellow-soldiers, like mad wolves, like animais in the wilderness .
Starvation does terrible things to the mind. There was an experiment done by a US university and the volunteers had to describe how they felt: much worse than they imagined.
@@rosesprog1722 Totally agree.
Terrible contexts create tertible behaviours.
Neverthless, in such situations, amazing stories also appear. People tendering to their fellowmen, placing the lives at stake.
Hardcore nazis and fanatic Japonese soldiers treated civilians and allied soldiers in a cruel, criminal manner.
Both regimes trained them to become devoided of normal human emotions and values.
@@albertseabra9226 The Japanese did treat their prisoners in intolerable ways and in Germany the US POWs camps were no vacations either but in the end, 95% of the US POWs made it home safely at the end of the war. I have studied the German version of WW2 a little and I can confirm that they lost two wars, a war of bullets, the one we all know of and a war of words, which is much worse. When the bullets stop flying, the war is over but that's when the other war begins, and this one is still going on today. As they say, the winners write the history, do they always tell the truth?
Great 👌 upload .
So kind of you Sir 🙏
The Americans took so many prisoners it was impossible to have food and supplies as quick as were needed. Most prisoners were already hungry because of the lack of supply to their own troops. American supply came all the way from ships on the coast.
Poor babies.
How well were the Allied prisoners treated by the Germans?
You're right and when you go to Germany today or even France which has a country twice now giving back to them because they couldn't keep it, they look down on you like your uncultured and just a loud as American. Derek Coulter was given to them thanks to us
And if they want to argue they had a culture before then I don't really agree with that culture of killing Mass swathes of people just because they're different and so I think their culture started when we gave their countries back because clearly they're not doing that these days
I was in Germany as a soldier 80 to 82 the Germans still thinks they’re superior and always would come up with a pre rehearsed debate of our short comings and their moral high ground . Or that we were just stupid watch dogs for the better German.
Hundreds of thousands of German pow’s died in American camps
1 out of every 3 allied prisoners died in Japanese pow camps. 1 of 10 died in German pow camps.
Yes, I remember this one.
Don't they get scared after digging a hole in the ground, thinking it was their graves, only to learn it was an outhouse?
Truly funny, but not funny moment.
Thx.
Sir You're welcome!
Please forgive my ignorance, but is the voice AI? Some of the pronunciation is a bit funky.
Yes. It's a bit like listening to someone who has read the words without ever hearing them pronounced, so they make a best guesstimate, a strategy that works poorly with English.
@@WildBikerBill Thank you for your eloquent explanation. I miss them in the modern world and it was a pleasure to read your reply.
@@chrisburns4297 I grew up in a home where reading was strongly encouraged. In Moms later years she liked to reminisce on her children's many comic pronunciation failures. I thought it provided insight into how children learn language.
@@WildBikerBill I teach English in Poland, both adults and children so you can imagine the mistakes I hear on a daily basis. I wasn't much better when I started learning Polish. During my first visit with a lady doctor I had wanted to say that my back muscles were stiff and hurt when I move. What I actually said was that I have a stiff penis which hurts when I copulate.
He's still committed brother. For his cause and / or being a German Soldier
AI speaker needs tweaking.
It's a British accent, perfectly normal.
Why didn't they use the key and open up the can?
Yea when I was active duty in the Marines we were stuck with WW2 combat rats, there was a key in the box. I bet the Germans didn't see/understand it
I heard this before😬
The narrator (AI?) sounds just like actor Sir Thomas Courtenay who was in “Dr. Zhivago”.
No compassion for these german thugs.
I love hearing these stories, but what is wrong with the speaker? His pronunciation is sometimes way off...Is the spoken text AI generated? @26:27 he pronounced "us" as "ous". @46:18 he says "indicat-ies", instead of "indicates". @46:22 "cigarettes" become "cigarett-ies". @54:55 "reclining" becomes "re-cleaning".
He sometimes pronounces the '-ed' suffix of the past simple verb, when it's not necessary.
Thanks! Very nice long “book” of a diary. I expect it is a diary like but reads for book… I find no errors… seams correct.
@DrTarrandProfessorFether Dear Sir words cannot express how much your support and kind words mean to us, You have our deepest thanks, May you always stay blessed 💐
Can I find these stories in a book?
'Other Losses' by James Bacque is specifically about the military held and starved in open fields.
These are about how horribly the German people were treated after the war:
'Gruesome Harvest' by Ralph F. Keeling
'A Terrible Revenge' by Alfred De Zayas
'Crimes and Mercies' by James Bacque
'The German Expellees Victims in War' by Alfred de Zayas
There are many many more.
(The greatest story never told.)
It’s called “A German Odyssey: The Journal of a German Prisoner of War” by Helmut Horner
Would you please find a person who can listen to your posts and suggest relevant titles that actually refer to the contents
Sir these titles are not clickbait ,infact excerpts from the memoirs and fully relatable .
So the WW2 Stories channel is defunct and WW2 Tales was created to repeat the same stories? Clever....
Sir we are not related to WW2 Stories Channel,and as for as this series is concerned,we have already shared two different series of German POWs ,this is the third one ,we always start from beginning of a story ,if someone ever shared it ,we got nothing to do with it
A super special pronunciation of "unknown". Fortunately no more about the "girls" in the bars.
I liked how it pronounced “thought” as “though-Tee” or “suburb” as “sue-boorb”
There are several weird pronunciations of Germany and German using a hard G. How about drain-age?
You can be annoyed, or you can be amused, the choice is yours. By the way, the program is free...
Good point. It's amusing until it becomes annoying. It's a great effort for free.
@@mattalley4330 Strange indeed!
HEY FATSO! Classic put down even in Germany.😂
The commentator pronounces English like a damaged artificial intelligence record !!
People acting like they would rather be a pow of the germans or japan even the soviets
Please stop using AI to narrate films or spend a bit of time to edit them. its horrible how the cadence is unnatural no proper inflection and horribly mispronounced words. This is a dis-service to what is being narrated
It is very disconcerting at times.
