      At the end of the day the overwhelming majority of the young boys that died were fighting a fight because the leaders of their respective countries told them to. They came from all walks of life and wanted the war to end and go home. Many of these boys never had a chance to love a woman, have children and experience life like many of us have had the fortune to do. Respect every one of them because individually it was not their fault and they gave their lives over it...

    I see the ID plaques were still complete so at wars end in Germany there would have been 3 families who would never know the fate of their sons. When any German soldier fell, his plaque was broken in half and one half remained with the body and the other was sent to a HQ to be reconciled against records. In this case,they fell far from their comrades and there was no one to collect their ID's to send home.

    • @antoniograncino3506
      @antoniograncino3506 2 роки тому +3

      It looks like they have some "dog tags", as the American GI's called their identification plaques. Is any effort made to repatriate the remains, or at least contact the appropriate authority in Germany and forward the ID tags for possible identification ?

    • @robertadams8192
      @robertadams8192 2 роки тому +6

      There is a problem with German WW2 ID disc's (as many of you may know). It is that they rely on records in the rear areas to identify the wearer. In many cases these records were destroyed, lost or mixed up during the war. As a result many German soldiers would actually scratch their names (and occasionally address) on to the tags. Another problem was that the cord attached to the tags would deteriorate over time and the tags could fall off. Many times when remains are dug up it is often impossible to determine which tag belongs to which set of remains. Especially when body's are found together. This may not seem like a truly terrible problem to overcome (DNA) however, I watched one video where there was a list of of soldiers temporarily buried at a site, near a field hospital, with their names. They ended up being temporarily buried for about 70 years. When dug up there were more remains than expected (some must have been buried at the site after the list had been made), and there were also both mixed and missing tags. And some soldiers still had both halves of their tags but they were so rusted they could not be read.

    9:50 That roll of rubber was probably intended for use as a tourniquet. Not sure about the melee part, unless it was to finish off wounded soldiers in order to loot their remains, there would probably be cuts on the bone from the blade hitting it anyway, stabbings are brutal affairs and often times there is more than one stab wound and evidence left on the bones. I think based on the visible shrapnel damage and the fact that one soldier is missing their head entirely that the main cause of death was probably from a mortar round or artillery shell.

    I'm glad you guys document how these remains were in situ before removing anything as it gives a picture of what happened to them. I could imagine a terrified young man pulling on his gas mask because of a smokescreen and seeing Red Army soldiers come out-too many and too late to react. He was badly wounded by shrapnel and a Red Army soldier finished him off with his own bayonet. (Only speculation but perhaps one Red Army soldier acted out his own vengeance by smashing in the skull of the other-and it made his Mosin ramrod come out.) It's a chilling scenario, one that happened countless times in the human meatgrinder called the Eastern Front-a place of nightmares and terror.

    This is very dangerous work, finding tank land mines, grenades, bullets, these men are at risk. You never know when one of these items found might go off.

    I just did a quick Google search for WW2 MIA numbers on the eastern front. I knew the casualty counts were staggering, but the MIA counts 80 years after the fact are still shocking. Approximately 2 million German soldiers and 4 million Soviet soldiers have never been accounted for. By comparison, the U.S. military MIAs at war's end were something like 75,000, and official U.S. military recovery efforts continue to this day. Obviously, there has never been a comprehensive effort to recover these war dead, and most of them still lie in the wartime temporary graves in which they were tossed in combat situations. If I were a Russian, Ukrainian, etc., I would certainly want my WW2 soldiers recovered if possible, but I would be somewhat ambivalent about spending taxes to recover wartime German dead, but I suppose it is inevitable when you go looking for one, you find both.

    It's wonderful to discover your channel. Very moving. As influence can be done through UA-cam channels, have you thought of collecting name tags (if it can be found), and give it to local officials (or the right officials) to give back to the family descendent ?

    yeah, considering the Bone Fracture on the German solder, He was too close to an explosive shell. Concussion probably killed him Instantly.
