These bulletins cover R.A.F Operations from the Fall 1944 through the end of the war in the Spring of 1945. You'll see glider landings in support of Operation Market Garden, horrific night attacks on Brunswick (Braunschweig ) and other old German cities with incendiary bombs that literally set them on fire, Hawker Typhoon & Tempest fighter/bombers attacking bridges, railroads & troop concentrations, Mosquitoes & Bristol Beaufighters & attacking shipping on the Norwegian coast, and Lancaster dropping massive 12,000 LB “Tall Boy” & 22,000 LB “Grand Slam” bombs on hardened targets like submariner pens and coastal defenseless and much more

In case nobody had noticed there's a foo fighter in this footage it's at 20 minutes and 1 second 20:01 top of the screen top left you'll see it coming in it goes the whole length of the screen to the bottom
Sorry old boy, but I think it's a marker flare dropped by the lead bomber, could be wrong though. It's a good spot at any rate.
Man they could sure hammer the living shit out of stuff on the ground. Hearing about it doesn't come close to actually seeing it.
my great uncle was a glider rider ( pilot )
No wonder so many people had bad hearing! I think the free world needed to see films showing such devastation as the Germans did such brutal and sadistic acts. Naturally, many innocents were killed- the children- but I have to remember the films showing Germans foaming at the mouth to give the salute as Hitler drove by... they wanted "total war" and they got it. TY- Good film!
thanks for these
Not to be rude but did you hear what the commentator said about Market Garden? He said the operation contributed greatly to the war effort. Really, by loosing 17,000 men. I not saying the idea was bad but if intelligent sources say it a bad time you should not ignore them. The movie (bridge too far) says it all.
Montgomery had a big ego and Eisenhauer lacked a spine. He was too political and it cost lives. Also Churchill ordered Harris to bomb Dresden who did not want to bomb Dresden and then when the RAF did a good job, Churchill chided Harris. People die, politicians lie.
I agree with you but not sure about the Churchill order. Have not seen that before. I think I remember a video where Harris was defending his bombing at Dresden. If I find it again I will send you a link but for sure I did see a part of an old video were the commentator did say that he thought that Harris could have been brought up on war crimes charges but was not.
@@CC-wc1gf Churchill's complicity in the bombing of Dresden is discussed on pp 269-270 in the book entitled RAF BOMBER COMMAND IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR-The Hardest Victory by Denis Richards. Harris believed he could win the war by bombing the german population into the stone age. War Crimes? Yes, war is a crime.

Thanks for the info
And after the war, the RAF left their slaves, sorry,
I mean their enlisted men all over the world on a starvation diet until the slaves finally mutanied. This was done to try and preserve England’s pre war empire. Of course the mutinies were brutally put down with the leaders charged and prosecuted to the fullest after promising to listen to demands and no harm done. Most RAF enlisted in India didn’t get home till the late forties.
Bull shit
