    So French of you.
    You FINALLY acknowledge the Communists, bt you do not acknowledge the Muslims from Africa who died during both wars defending your land.

    0:54 Why where they called 'night'? It's not well explained here. Because of their skin colour, or why?

      I am confused by this as well. If they are referring to “knight” - I thought the word was “caballero”

      Ninth = 9th, not night not knight... because it was the 9th company

      ​@plusultra4961 🤷‍♀️ This earned the company the nickname, because most of them were Spanish... (almost all) 1:05 'La Nueve'! - meaning 9, I get it. But the report is not explaining it well! They joined the 9th company. Understood. 0:59 'Meaning knight/night in Spanish.' (not 9th) It's very badly explained.

      @@plusultra4961 But, if so, badly! How did this get through editing? 'knight/night' is really far from a simple 'nine'...
      I don't speak Spanish, but I looked it up. My associations (based on Latin) of 'nueve' were either night, nine, or new.
