Great job covering Westerplatte... very respectfully done. I like your videos a lot.
Thank you Stephen! Looks like you’ve been on a binge, much appreciate the support!😁
Really enjoyed your enthusiastic journey through this beautiful city ❤
Thank you!
Very interesting 👌
Thanks for the document
Really well made video and factual commentary. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. I visited it too in 2006 😢
That barracks was destroyed in 1945 by Germans. During 1939 campaign it was almost intact. That tower was build after war as a part of Polish military infrastructure, not longer in use . There's still army base in Westerplatte. Train you've mentioned wasn't set in fire by Germans but because of defenders 37 mm anti tank cannons fire.
Ahh very interesting, thank you for letting me know!
Wow, you're video is so touching!
Well done ben love the start in black and white.
You missed one point on your tour. The strike at the Shipyard named Lenin initiated the fall of communism (1980). The European center of solidarity is located at the historic gate to the shipyard. It is worth visiting them.
"Poland wants war and they (Germany) will not be able to avoid it even if they want to". Polish General Edward Rydz Smigly. As reported in the British Newspaper The Daily Mail August 29th 1939.
Smells like bullshit...
Russian troll.
