My grandfather was in Corinth canal that time. He was serving in the Greek army and he was on a train carrying wounded Greek soldiers mainly from the Albanian front. The train was hit by Stukas. He described to me the hell of the bombing: the train in flames still moving, wounded soldiers jumping down and crawling to find cover, dismembered bodies everywhere, the horrifying sirens of the planes and the sky raining fire. He went under a carriage and he was saved by miracle but most around him were killed. Then, wounded, walked along with other survivors the whole 80 km distance to Athens (could not go to nearby Corinth as it was already taken by the Germans). In the last kilometers had to be carried by his comrades as he could not walk anymore: he was completely exhausted, bleeding and his feet full of open wounds.
Thanks for sharing your grandfather experience during the Second World War! I absolutely enjoy reading, or listening, or as in this case watching/listening! Truly, a horrific time while being a truly spectacular time in mankind’s history on this planet..
I was fortunate , as a young man , to know both a German paratrooper, and an Australian soldier who had fought each other at the Corinth Canal. The German had migrated to Australia after the war, and they had become good friends.
I know the story from my father who was 15 years old at the time.i was also very lucky to meet a british soldier who was evacuated from NAFPLIO and had pictures he had taken where you could see the Stukas attack to the harbor. I also met a man from New Zealand who was retracing his father's steps through Greece in 1941. Also family members of New Zealand troops came to the area last year honouring the ANZAC troops that fought here
My grandfather fought in corinth against the germans and later fought in kalamata . He was a machine gunner and he described the bombing of the stukas as hell on earth. Thanks for the video Mark
You deserve to be on TV doing hour long episodes, The narrative/pacing/quality of your work beats most of the stuff I've watched on tv throughout the years. No biases no propaganda, you get right to it and tell the story like a true teacher should. Thank you Mark
I have come across Dr Felton numerous times... quite pleasantly I may add... while watching the tube. Mostly on the Military Channel and History. Such a knowledgeable and we'll spoken man. "Honey... come in the room my Dear. Thus is the gent from UA-cam I was telling you about... Mark Felton!"
If Mark was hired by a network, they would wreck his productions, editing them for political correctness, requiring him to do programs on things they judge to be good for their financial bottom line. He is great as he is and reaching millions.
When I was a young boy (in 61 now) living in an English countryside village pub, a local, Douglas Compton, who was same age a my WW2 veteran father, stated that he was in Greece. He managed to escape Crete and got to North Africa, where he was subsequently captured at Tobruk. Another local, Josef Rolff, who was a German alpine specialist from Bavaria and a paratrooper , was standing close by in the bar. (Josef had been captured at Cherbourg in '44 and sent to England, where he married a local lady and lives there until his death). Douglas said how he was defending Crete by shooting into the sky at the thousand of paratroopers, when Joe said, "You were shooting at me, you bastard." Douglas apologised and bought him a beer. That was 1971 and I'll never forget it.
@@walterweiss7124of course. A parachuter or a Fallschirmjäger were legit targets, even in the sky. I guess the German ment this as a joke. I wish we could get along as those two old fellas nowadays where even a wrong pronoun starts a war.
@@Wolfsschanze99 I meant about the Greek Campaign alone, sorry for the confusion. But yes, I also know about the airborne assaults in the Low Countries and France.
Two of my great uncles were part of the team responsible for using the Bofors for blowing up the carelessly placed charges. Although Kiwi's they were of Irish extraction & we somewhat renowned for their short tempers, they managed to have a right royal fistfight with some German Paratroopers & they escaped to Crete where they were almost caught by the Germans as they had snuck into a wine cellar for some 'complimentary' samples when a German patrol arrived with the same thing in mind. The end result was a wine cellar bar brawl (This was what my Great Uncles noted it as in their diaries). As neither side wanted to fire a shot to destroy the wine it again resulted in a fistfight. My Great Uncles scarpered away with their precious 'complimentary' wine samples & a captured German Paratroop officer whom they had tried to immobilize by dropping a chair over his head & Immobilize him they did as the wicker type seat had gone over his helmet & the frame of the chair had dropped down to a point where German Paratroop Officer could not move his arms, so they perhaps somewhat naively decided that they'd take him with them. According to their diaries, once back at their camp they all got suitably lubricated (Including their captured German). They were mentioned in despatches. They were eventually evacuated to Egypt & fought in North Africa & Italy. Both of these rascals survived the war & managed to keep in touch with their former prisoner after the war.
That's a story worth telling. "Don't shoot, think about the wine !" Funny, how the Germans thought the same and you end up with bar brawl where nobody gets seriously hurt. I like these little escapades way more than the bloody mess that the war was. Thanks for sharing.
My grandmother was Corinthian and lived very close to the train station when the Stukas bombarding was taking place. She had the same haunting experience as other testimonials here. I will never forget her describing the severely wounded soldiers screaming while trying to flee and the sea side next to the station turning red from all the blood and the dismembered bodies of dead soldiers. A cold blood massacre. She was 14 years old at the time.
They were the Enemy but what Brave Lads they were all the same and true pioneers of air mobility thankyou Dr Felton for another albeit brief glimpse back in time!
Great to see this footage. My father was a Fourth Hussar at Corinth but was not captured until late October 1941. He was just 21. I remind myself what he lived through when I get frustrated by lockdown during this Pandemic!
Apparently the British were not prepared at all for this as they lost the bridge,towns and a very high number of troops. Fantastic job Mark and thank you.
What a battle! Thank you for covering much lesser known actions of both sides! We look forward to everything you consistently work on and put out! Cheers Mark!
I don't care what Universe you're from, jumping from an airplane onto a battlefield has got to be beyond frightening. Thanks for another great insight video, Mr. Mark Felton.
Mark, I am so happy that you reached a million subscribers. Your research and storytelling is absolutely phenomenal and I am glad to have discovered your channel. You are my go to history channel for over a year now. Just WOW.
Thank you Dr Felton, for settling the debate as to how the bridge was actually destroyed. The erroneous claim that it was a sharpshooter firing an Enfield can now be laid to rest.
When I was a kid there was a tv show called WARS OF THE WORLD and aired on Sunday evenings. I watched it religiously with my Dad as; he was a Guadalcanal and several other Islands; combat veteran of WWII. Your production is equal to the quality of that show if not better.
He was in the Queens Own 4th Hussars along with my father and 550 others. My father managed to get back to Egypt along with about 125 others, the rest were taken prisoner, killed, wounded or drowned on the ships moving the soldiers from Greece to Crete and then on to Cairo. It was the regiment's first engagement. The Germans found taking Crete more difficult.
When the pilot cut back the throttles I got excited....I used to skydive and the pilot cutting back the engine was the signal to begin the exit. I haven't jumped in years but still get excited. Excellent "superman exits" by the Fallschirmjagers.

Mr. Felton, I can't thank you enough for all the work you do to bring us these fascinating videos! I literally cannot get enough of them and watch many a second or third time. You've really helped many of us while away the time during this pandemic. You're the best at what you do sir!

My mother's first husband died fighting the Italians and then the Germans and died in the fighting against the Germans. I am pleased to hear your grandfather survived.
@@theophilosmantzanas9203 ya my grandfather and grandmother and her sister survived, but the nazi's killed the rest of her family. They were the only 3 survivors. It was a horrible war.
I've been across the reconstructed bridge. The canal isn't but about 25 meters wide at the bottom and maybe triple that at the bridge level. Interesting video.
That wasn't fallschirmjägers. It was the engineers who did that. They probably wanted to save the explosives for later use. But yes, they shouldn't have placed them all in a single pile.
I appreciate the strictly fact based documentaries of Mr. Felton. No political correctness speech, no biased perspectives. Just facts, always edited comprehensivly.

Yes, I too am grateful. I have family in Messinia.
Since you are a local and you found this video informative, please inform him that there is no such town as " _Namfia_ "! It is called *Nauplion* .

When was the canal cut?
1892
I was fortunate , as a young man , to know both a German paratrooper, and an Australian soldier who had fought each other at the Corinth Canal.
The German had migrated to Australia after the war, and they had become good friends.

Another great video, Mark!
Only heard about the airborne assault on Crete, but not on the Corinth Bridge. Well done!

Now that's a story I'd like to hear narrated by Mark!
Very cool to hear!
This story needs to become a war comedy
My greatest respect to your uncles who came to help my country.
Respect to all Aussies and Kiwis who fought and died in Greece in the spring of 1941.
That's a story worth telling. "Don't shoot, think about the wine !" Funny, how the Germans thought the same and you end up with bar brawl where nobody gets seriously hurt. I like these little escapades way more than the bloody mess that the war was. Thanks for sharing.
The music from the era, playing during the parachute jumps, is pure motivation!
Not just the Falschrimjäger, it seems Dr Felton also drops exciting videos out of nowhere. Thanks for your hard work sir.
Mark Felton the greatest narrative hitorion of all times
Nothing like the notification of a mark felton production to motivate you in the morning.
