"This [plan to assassinate Hitler] was abandoned due to arguments over whether Hitler, due to his disastrous military decisions, was more useful to the Allies if left alive." That is more savage than any assassination ;)
About the man who conquered virtually all of Europe... yeah... savage... btw. did you know that Hitler didn't kill himself? Where did he go? What did he do?
@@MWcrazyhorse Keep in mind Hitler wasn't the only person at the war-table. Also keep in mind quite a few of his former generals from before the war started, were kinda... well dead. Either because they betrayed Hitler and were executed, or well they died in battle.
@@chaddy2409 He did actually. What the Britbongs fail to realize is that in mid-late 1943 (between battles of Stalingrad and Kursk) the German leadership realized the war in Europe could not be won. Thus from that moment on the strategy was formulated to hold on as long as possible while the Reich relocated personnel and materials to new locations in South America and Antarctica. The Wehrmacht also functionally ran out of fuel and could only support about 1/2 of its former capacity. So the Blitzkrieg tactics changed to classic defensive positions. Of course none of this is something the Britbongs would understand. They just sat on their island cheering on the communists as they swept Europe and lobbed bombs at civilians. They operate on a very low level of vibration as subjects to the cabal they are not meant to think, but blindly serve. Indeed when you tell them what is common knowledge that Hitler did not kill himself and all those UFOs you see swooshing about belong to the Nazis, they get really mad. As useful drones they are conditioned to love the lies they have been fed. I wouldn't be surprised if they were indeed ignorant enough to think assassinating Hitler was a bad strategy and thus called it off.

Mark - You podcasts are the best on UA-cam. I am retired military and a history buff and have seen most of you work on World War 2. Thank you for the quality podcasts.
Tbf I dont really want to learn how Hans Kammler fucked everything up if I'm in High School. Maybe if the classes are especially focused in history? (History Majors.)
100% agree. Kids in high school in America don’t even know what ww2 was ! So much lost ! So much knowledge being just disregarded today! The past answers many questions !
This has very quickly become my favorite UA-cam channel. I love WW2 history, and yet nearly every video presented here has information I knew nothing about, making the watching of these videos all the more intriguing! These videos are superbly well-presented, and I thank you for your hard work
Many an avid WWII history buff has overlooked this Devil. Did the U.S.get him through Operation Paperclip? or did the Nazis get him through Operation Ravenstorm? This is the question. Super soldiers & rocket science.
I don’t think he killed himself. And no one wanted to be caught by the Russians. So knowing the high tech programs he worked on,I wouldn’t doubt that he had a fake identity(s) ready to go when the time came. And slipped away into obscurity somewhere. Although the “bell” crash incident that happens in kecksberg Pennsylvania in late 40’s or early 50’s. I can’t remember. Was supposedly the German project “de-Glock” that he was in charge of. Witnesses saw it in Germany they found the facility and test area that housed it but it was gone. Just like him. They are not sure it the “bell” was a time traveling device or what. It was never found then something identical crashed out the sky in Pennsylvania before it crashed it made a few turns or maneuvers that a meteorite or space debris doesn’t do. Also the military was on scene almost within the hour, considering the remoteness of this part of Pennsylvania that’s not just a coincidence, it’s odd. All the witness descriptions of the bell in Pennsylvania resemble the project he was working on at wars endTheirs a museum in kecksburg Pennsylvania wheee it happened.
I just realized that there’s actually a video about his last project the “deglocke” I’m sure it probably covers what I just commented on. Check it out if interested
There’s speculation that he was secretly communicating with the US and moved the V2 rockets toward a rendezvous point. Then, he disappeared. Perhaps the US aided him. Von Braun came to the US and had a serious Christian conversion. I am sure that he was guilty about using slave labor.
Thank you ~MARK FELTON~ I am just so happy to watch a new video, I just love listening to your voice when I am sad, it makes me happy. I blessed the day i came across your CHANNEL, GOD BLESS YOU ❤.
Backdoor agreements seem to be prolific near the end of the war. I agree and track with the research; he must have made it out unscathed. I don't think such an important person could slip away without certain agreements or arrangements made possible by his assigned trackers/agents on his trail. Great work and good research - loved it!!
Thanks Mark, Top notch job as usual, I`m pretty sure he made it to America and probably had a nice office in Langley. He was still young and knew too much . Notice how he is not mentioned very much at Nuremburg. The OSS was creating a lot of fog around him and he was very much involved with Von Braun. Keep the videos coming! Thank you.
One of my favorite songs of all time is Maggie May by Rod Stewart. One day I realized I had not listened to it in awhile and looked it up on UA-cam. To my horror, I discovered I inadvertently disliked the video. I assume that is the case here.
Thank you for the great overview of Kammler. In his book, 'The Hidden Nazi', author Dean Reuter presents documents that show Kammler was in custody of US Army CIC into 1946. He was held by the same unit that handled Klaus Barbie. Other documents presented by Reuter show that the British knew Kammler was being held and that they requested his extradition to GB. Recommended reading for anyone with an interest in Kammler.
Love this channel! Get my weekly fix of history videos. I've always been interested in WW2 but you've definitely widened my knowledge and certainly made me more interested in it! Don't stop Dr Felton!
Dear Dr. Felton. Thank you very much for another nuanced, balanced, well researched, well presented and properly backed video once again. I have followed you from the beginning, from Nigeria, and have actually opened the eyes of several friends here to your channel and videos. This includes my own kids - especially my 11-year old who has a lot of interest in history, specifically WW2 history. I hope one day, you will do some research, and publish a video on the experience of West African Soldiers in the British Army in Burma and that theatre, especially the Nigerian troops who performed admirably. Please keep up the good work, Sir.
One of the best historical UA-camrs I’ve ever seen. Thank you for your content because its unparalleled knowledge compared to core curriculum is unbelievable
@@frankgesuele6298 - - I know. Unfortunately, in some American books published in the last years they tried to ignore the contribution of the German scientists as much as possible. In a book for making the space program popular to young readers, the omission was complete.
Think Danish journalist Inga Arvad and Ensign John F. Kennedy. She 'worked' with both Adolph Hitler and the future U.S. President. Pictures exist of her with both men separately.
@@sammorgan1963 - - Something that seems to be missed in this thread is that the leadership of the U.S.A. needed Wernher Von Braun and his fellow scientists not because they were former Nazi, but because their unique, irreplaceable technical expertise.
You’re the first person I’ve subscribed to! I’m just a young American who thought he knew a lot about ww2 till hearing you... lol. Love your stuff, dr Felton
Between how chaotic the end of the war was and how much under the table wheeling and dealing there was being done, I find it surprising that there's still this much info to be found about anyone. Let alone someone who apparently wished to disappear.
we know where they went,argentina and chile,the city they founded still exists today in argentina and they recently found a hidden room full of nazi "artifacts"
My whole family watch your videos :) Kids yell out "Mark Felton is on Dad!" and we all hit the couch to watch your latest episode. Outstanding videos, your presentation is gold standard. Thankyou!
One of the things I love best about this channel is that you are careful to say when something is speculation or simply a mystery. Honest historical analysis is priceless in a day and age when controversial history tends towards questionable methods and self-serving results. Although WWII is not my primary focus, I very much enjoy watching this channel frequently. I am never disappointed.
The further we get from the war and passing of all who were there I find the mysteries of missing monsters slipping into academic exercises. In the 60's or 70's this story would have had a more profound effect on me because he could have still been alive. Great vid as always.
What i like 😉 about Dr. Feltons Programs are the large numbers of unknown photos and the perfect balance of Revisionist and standard textbook history. Excellent
These are definitely the best, in depth videos I’ve personally seen on UA-cam. Very professional. I’m impressed. And, of course, I subscribed. I could watch these all day long. Thanks Mark.
I absolutely love History as I am working on my degree with a Major in History and a Minor in Russian Studies. I just found your UA-cam channel and I cannot stop watching your videos. Thank you for your hard work and making the videos.
Thank you, again, for this thoroughly enjoyable and well researched piece of history that I would never have learnt without your incredible efforts. I bet you enjoy making these, but your videos are exceptional, and provide a public good. I've bought one of your books, and thats really good too, so thank you again!
I know this is a touchy topic, since the Vatican is not clearly the good guys, but their Chronovisor helped the Sicilian Mafia and US Italian Mafia to look into the vectors of time to aid the Allies
Dr Felton,the archival footage you use,and also surviving photographs is particularly remarkable,it really is a lost art of documentary making, for that reason I will continue you to support your channel with donations were I can,thank you.
The one question that always bugs me is: How suspicious if at all were the Germans of the breaking of code of their Enigma machines? I would have thought that the hasty build-up of defensive positions at Kursk might have at least alerted them.
Is was broken many times. They would change the cryptography of the letters and numbers then. Whenever they suspected it was compromised. For example a U-boat was captured, the Germans didn't know, so the allies could listen in on some U-boat and Kriegsmarine communications. Enigma messages were compartmentalized on a need to know basis. So nazi 1 wouldn't understand nazi 2's Enigma communication unless nazi 1 had a need to know. For example, they are both on the same missions or cooperation between army and luftwaffe, etc
A bit late too the party. But reports would suggest if they were they didn't do a lot about it. In North Africa in the arse end of no where over looking nothing but sand and sky the Germans had an outpost that reported in every morning. They would say the same thing using an enigma machine "Nothing to report". It was that Outpost that allowed the allied forces to know what the Enigma codes were that day because they knew what that message said everyday.
After the war a German general said: whenever we attacked, it was an allied strong point, whenever we were attacked, it was at our weak point. The allies always said that they had a spy in the OKW. They likely did, but Enigma ('Ultra') was the real treasure box of intel. The French underground before Overlord, for example, were told to destroy telephone lines, to force German military comms onto radio which could be intercepted.
Bang on! Great stuff, Mark. Kammler is like a submarine. Not a sieg heiling public figure, but a big shot mover and shaker. His sweeping under the rug is pretty damning. I expect he lived long and comfortably to perish at a ripe old age. Bearded in Bariloche, maybe. Curious the Jews never caught up with him. Eichmann was a bureaucrat. Kammler was a foundation stone. There was the guy with the saucer tech. As the war reached it's climax, Kammler confessed to Speer that he was headed underground. There may have been an invite to come along. He should taken the opportunity. He did 20 years in Spandau.
That is a pretty incredible idea that there was argument in favor of leaving Hitler alive due to a string of his own bad decisions. "Don't interrupt the enemy when he is making a mistake"
This caught my attention as well. In some respects, I think it does make sense. After the tide was turning in favour of the Allies, his erratic behaviour arguably meant that he was more destructive to the Nazi war machine than some of the potentially more capable "lieutenants" waiting in the wings to take over. Also by this stage, I would suspect that years of Allied intelligence effort had been spent understanding Hitler's behaviour. For example he was arguably a very poor strategist. Perhaps it is always better to know your enemy and especially his weaknesses? I suspect that if there was an overwhelming concensus between Allied military advisors to assassinate Hitler, they probably would have. Maybe better to target his top Nazi generals instead? However, this was not straightforward. This was attempted. I believe the only operation, backed by the British and exiled Czech government, to kill a top Nazi was Anthropoid. Although it resulted in the assassination of Heydrich, this arguably backfired as hundreds of Czech's were executed in reprisal. As Mark mentioned in this video, the later Operation Foxley to assassinate Hitler was cancelled. If he had been assassinated, not only could a more capable strategist have taken control but the German people would have no doubt viewed Hitler as a martyr and it may have strengthened their resolve fight plus triggered goodness knows what atrocious retribution?
@@hedgehog1965uk Quite right. Thanks for the correction. I thought this was a Sun Tzu quote but it looks like you are right about authorship with Napoleon as well. Well, at least I had the idea right. LOL Great comment Steve GMOHUU. Thanks
Sounds like a good idea , But Think of the Propaganda Coup that would have happened if they had killed Hitler . The effects on Germany would have been enormous . And with this massive allied war machine already knocking on Germany's door , I think who ever took over would most likely want to come to terms . Just another "what if " in the annals of history.
I am a amateur world war II historian. I have learned a lot about the war. But I learned more and more about it from Mark who I just discovered, in his short documentaries.
Whenever that intro music comes on I have this odd compulsion to just start banging my right arm in the air like i'm rallying the troops forward. I love it. thanks!
Thank you so much Mark you teach me more than I ever knew about the war, in your short, but information packed documentaries. I'm watching everyone I can find. Thanks so much.

@Hydroginn1 It is a joke taken from an Austin Powers movie. In the movie Dr. Evil then changed the amount to 100 million or 100 billion, something like that.
Love your channels and the fact that you don't rush or cut corners to meet your time line unlike other UA-cam history channels. WW2 history specialy the European front is the most important warning about the dangers of hate, mental grooming and self destruction.
@@jamesdellaneve9005 it was interesting how we developed rockets so quickly after the war. We had “former German scientists” helping us, but one cannot help but wonder how they were developed so quickly without some sort of leadership…..
That's totally not true! Besides that movie about all the boats landing on the French beach, Hollywood also came up with that prequel where they left the French beach.
You're not wrong, this series and and the other ones, is flippin awesome, the information isnt gobbledegook, and some of us need that so much. Each time I see a show come through i have a ritual, fresh cuppa, maybe a biscuit or 3, and settle down in my chair to watch, as you day, the best history channel
That would be nice to have Dr Felton gives us his view about the infamous projects linked to Hans Kammler which are "die Glocke" and the whole "die Riese" site in Poland. Nick Cook and Igor Witkowski's books were interesting but some of their theories are in my opinion far-fetched and at lest lacking real historical proofs. But since their books I didn't find much new information apart from more and more wild theories, or maybe I missed them. I would like to read more real historical research on theses subject. My own opinion is that "die Glocke" could be more linked to Germany's nuclear programms for which there is still a lot to write about.
The Hunt for Zero Point is a terrific read, much better then most scifi novels. Anyone interested in decent scifi fiction based upon fact might read W.A. Harbinson's 'Project Sauce, Book One: Inception. Hans Kammler figures rather prominently in the story. Witkowski's book is difficult to find, having been originally printed in Polish, translated into English, and then published in limited quantities. It's well worth finding, being perhaps the only academic source using recently declassified GDR and Polish military sources never published in English. Based on his eastern sources, including those from the former Soviet Union, Witkoski's rejects many British and American assessments of Nazi wunderweapons. His most incredible discussion involves 'die Glock', a project managed by Kammler, and based in Silesia now in southern Poland. If pictures are worth a thousand words then Witkoski's images of the experiment's Silesian ruins and its Polish-Sov-GDR 1980s replication speak volumes. What the project involved remains unclear but the Sovs believed it was concerned with antigravity. We know it used huge amounts of high voltage and a branch of physics not generally acknowledged in the west. The project was given a higher security clearance and greater resources priority then the V weapons and the atomic bomb projects. Interesting that to this day almost nothing is ever heard about this die Glock in western sources. One needs to see the photographs to appreciate understand that is project wasn't fantasy. Kammler also oversaw the various Nazi sauced projects, which is interesting in light of die Glock's antigravity associations.
Mark Felton Production is one of the best sources of WWII history without bias. Thank you Mr. Felton for your contributions to true historical research and learning. You far outshine anything on television in your research and presentation. Please keep up the excellent work for the sake of posterity.
Sir, you're nearing a million subscribers. That's enough of a testament to the quality of these videos that you keep showing to us! Great job, as always!
Completely fascinating videos; thanks so much! My Mom, RIP, was a huge WW2 history buff, as am I ...she was a teenager back during The War.. she / we used to watch “World At War” back in the’70s when it came over to the States here; my English ex also used to enjoy watching the reruns, and with a “gallows “ sense of humor used to refer to the Nazis as “the Bad Lads..”😬
Okay, I had to laugh. British general 1: "We are going to drop an elite squad of snipers to kill Hitler!" British general 2: "But why, he is the best general England has!"
@David Menard Its possible AH was the luckiest Dictator in History to survive all those attempts on his life. But the dozens of incredible lucky breaks that all came together for him in July 20, 1944 makes me think that you are right.
He was certainly an asset to the Red Army; his insistence that the Germans defend all Russian territory captured, rather than fall back to more defensible areas like the generals wanted, likely shortened the war on the Eastern Front by a year.
Another magnificent documentary from the master Mark Felton . A maze within a maze and typically superb research and editing . I wonder how many people have heard of the Henschel Hs 117 missile and project . Called the Schmetterling / "butterfly" in the German language . I recall from years ago , the rumors that concentration camp inmates had been used by force as test pilots . Thank you once again Mr. Felton and all the best to each and all .
@@QuantumMechanic_88 the Henschel HS117 missiles I know of are the surface to air missile and the air to sir variant. Nrithefcwere large enough to take a person. They were optically guided by us of a telescope. I think you need go provide a source.
You have no clue how right you are ;-) There are a lot of different stories what happened to Kammler, a very interesting one is this: It was not Ufos, but Kammler discovered time anomalies in various places on Mount Untersberg in Salzburg/Austria. In 2020 a dutch tourist climbed up the mount with his daughter, she went into one of the many caves and her father couldn't see her anymore, she disappeared right before his eyes. He searched her for several hours, the daugther finally appeared again and told him she has been in the cave for only ten seconds! In 2015 Norwegian tourists saw a man dressed in an unknown uniform walking down a steep path on Mount Untersberg, he looked like Kammler himself (not aged, he looked exactly like in the WW2 footage). The Norwegians never arrived home (local newspaper reported about this). Don't know if this story is true but it's creepy nonetheless and good stuff for a movie or novel...
@@haraldschiner6837 I saw a doc once where in, a guy who collected compasses, bought a strange compass from a yard sale. The thing looked nothing like a compass, and he barley even recognized it as one. He being somewhat a compass expert. It was totally mechanical, and used no magnets. It did have a manufacturer name on it, and he managed to get in contact with a fellow who knew about such devices. So turns out, the damn thing was a "Luftwaffe" compass, that was incredibly rare. The conclusion that was reached, was that it was to be used in some sort of gravitational anomaly. Where normal magnetic compasses wouldn't read correctly. He then returned to where he had purchased the compass, and inquired about it. The man who had sold the thing to him, told him that he had been contracted by some military bases, to haul loads of old military junk to scrap yards. The man had a small fleet of trucks, and worked hauling scrap for the U.S. military in the 1950's, and occasionally he would rummage through some of it. He would keep a few things here and there, and that compass was one of them. Interesting enough story, but the question remains "why would the Luftwaffe take the time to build complicated mechanical compasses, if they had not needed them for something?" I for one am a firm believer in that there "are things that we simply don't understand." I wouldn't be surprised if Kammler didn't disappear into the mountain. Thanks for sharing your idea. All the best to you Sir.
Really appreciate your work. Concise, yet rich in detail. As a kid I collected Purnells History of Ww2. Played Avlon Hills war games trying to reverse the outcome of certain battles. Would be great should you ever delve into the Congo/Katanga conflict. Once again, many thanks.
Great story. I don’t really understand his value to the US. Also seeing Von Braun with President Kennedy was shocking to me only about seventeen years after the war. Wasn’t Von Braun complicit is the use of slave labor? I do understand that he was important to the us as our German scientist(s) to counter the Soviets German scientists.
Operation Paperclip Unfortunately von Braun was not even the worst that U S and the allies "found usses" for. His bosses also worked for Kammler and the U S space program. There are a few books about Operation Paperclip ( two of the best have it in the title. > on the othe hand, 'Project Paperclip' here on yt will give you chills and hope < ).
@19 Forte Why should v. Braun have been executed? He was mainly an opportunist, I doubt if he really was a convinced Nazi. He tolerated and accepted the terrible conditions under which the slave laborors had to work. But he was not the one who organized the slave labor.
Yes he escaped. I had no idea who he was as a child when I met him, seemed like a very nice old man, but many years later I figured out who he was. I met him in like late September of 1986 I believe, and he still had that odd jaw line, that was a big thing that stood out to me. Well that, his gold skunk lapel he gave to me to play with(I think I still have it someplace, has the letters ARPA on it) and the rather large amount of nazi paraphernalia in the apartment. For context he was my godmothers father. He came to visit her when she was taking care of me. They had a huge stockpile of nazi stuff that they were going through, photographs, propaganda posters, even a nazi balloon. He was in a lot of the photographs. I remember one huge photo album filled with stuff from the war, its all hazy now because I was just a kid, but the cover had a picture of him and some guy named Viktor Schauberger some place with air plane hangers in the United States like in the 50's or something, but he was super happy to get it from her, she had panted the outside of it in a cool red and gold pattern, and she made a bunch of collages on the inside. Probably not useful info lol. I don't really remember anything he said. The only other thing I remember was his strange triangle watch, never seen another like it, always wanted one. Its kind of scary now that I think about the fact I was in a room with this guy as a kid. Also their last names had obviously changed. If you don't believe me that's your proactive, I could care less, but it was absolutely him. Yes he is dead now, and so is she, in case you were wondering. I have no idea why she lived in North Carolina, but that is where he came to visit her, and where I met him. Funny enough I am working towards getting a job at a rocket company via an internship. Oh the irony. If you read this far down, you are an awesome person, and have a wonderful day.
The triangle watch you saw was probably an American triangular electric wristwatch, Hamilton(?) from the 1950s. It was one of the first electric watches.
Thanks a lot for showing this report about one of the most mysterious person's in the Nazi - regime. It's always a great moment to me watching your videos!! Greetings from Austria 👍🇦🇹
Hans Kammler and Heinrich Mueller crash landed into the future inside Die Glocke December 9th 1965 Kecksburg Pennsylvania and we cant deny that bizarre possibility.
@@xanderunderwoods3363 Lol confirm it with no proof? Claiming this is bearing false witness and that is a sin, I'm not perfect myself either, just letting you know. Peace be to you all
Nowhere in this video or elsewhere dose anyone claim he had a cushy life after the war. If fact, the idea that he probably killed himself suggests otherwise. I know in the confused heads of conspiracy theorists, the government is full of evil men in black, but the reality is a little different.
Thanks for the lovely comments. I notice that many people leaving kind comments are not yet subscribed. Please do so - it helps me a lot!

Only the British would call a serious military operation ":Operation little foxley."
A serious one should be named 'Mince pie'.

Americans tend to give such operations silly names too.
It was a cover name.

They won't do that because this country is slowly heading in this direction.

When I saw there was a new episode that had only been posted for an hour, I was ecstatic. Thank you for having one of the best channels on UA-cam.
It's been great to see how quickly this channel has grown. I particularly enjoy all of the information about the lesser known aspects of WWII.
As a student of history, thank you ever so much Dr Felton for all of your contributions to the field.

Many an avid WWII history buff has overlooked this Devil. Did the U.S.get him through Operation Paperclip? or did the Nazis get him through Operation Ravenstorm? This is the question. Super soldiers & rocket science.
Really makes you think
I don’t think he killed himself. And no one wanted to be caught by the Russians. So knowing the high tech programs he worked on,I wouldn’t doubt that he had a fake identity(s) ready to go when the time came. And slipped away into obscurity somewhere. Although the “bell” crash incident that happens in kecksberg Pennsylvania in late 40’s or early 50’s. I can’t remember. Was supposedly the German project “de-Glock” that he was in charge of. Witnesses saw it in Germany they found the facility and test area that housed it but it was gone. Just like him. They are not sure it the “bell” was a time traveling device or what. It was never found then something identical crashed out the sky in Pennsylvania before it crashed it made a few turns or maneuvers that a meteorite or space debris doesn’t do. Also the military was on scene almost within the hour, considering the remoteness of this part of Pennsylvania that’s not just a coincidence, it’s odd. All the witness descriptions of the bell in Pennsylvania resemble the project he was working on at wars endTheirs a museum in kecksburg Pennsylvania wheee it happened.
I just realized that there’s actually a video about his last project the “deglocke” I’m sure it probably covers what I just commented on. Check it out if interested
There’s speculation that he was secretly communicating with the US and moved the V2 rockets toward a rendezvous point. Then, he disappeared. Perhaps the US aided him. Von Braun came to the US and had a serious Christian conversion. I am sure that he was guilty about using slave labor.
he got a new ID and was taken to America, he was too valueble.
I though I knew a lot about ww2 until I started watching Mark Felton.
Makes me wonder when people dislike such an informative and well made video.
They are called liberals !!!

Danke für alles,lieber Hans.
Thank you for the great overview of Kammler. In his book, 'The Hidden Nazi', author Dean Reuter presents documents that show Kammler was in custody of US Army CIC into 1946. He was held by the same unit that handled Klaus Barbie. Other documents presented by Reuter show that the British knew Kammler was being held and that they requested his extradition to GB. Recommended reading for anyone with an interest in Kammler.
I'm currently watching a series presented by Tino Struckman of Lost Battlefields, absolutely absorbing series,I recommend it
No Dave
I wonder if Kammler had any doings with Klaus when he was supposedly working for the CIA in South America hunting Che Guevara and other communists.

Dear Dr. Felton. Thank you very much for another nuanced, balanced, well researched, well presented and properly backed video once again.
I have followed you from the beginning, from Nigeria, and have actually opened the eyes of several friends here to your channel and videos. This includes my own kids - especially my 11-year old who has a lot of interest in history, specifically WW2 history.
I hope one day, you will do some research, and publish a video on the experience of West African Soldiers in the British Army in Burma and that theatre, especially the Nigerian troops who performed admirably.
Please keep up the good work, Sir.

@@frankgesuele6298 - - I know. Unfortunately, in some American books published in the last years they tried to ignore the contribution of the German scientists as much as possible. In a book for making the space program popular to young readers, the omission was complete.

Kids yell out "Mark Felton is on Dad!" and we all hit the couch to watch your latest episode.
Outstanding videos, your presentation is gold standard. Thankyou!
One of the things I love best about this channel is that you are careful to say when something is speculation or simply a mystery. Honest historical analysis is priceless in a day and age when controversial history tends towards questionable methods and self-serving results. Although WWII is not my primary focus, I very much enjoy watching this channel frequently. I am never disappointed.
The further we get from the war and passing of all who were there I find the mysteries of missing monsters slipping into academic exercises. In the 60's or 70's this story would have had a more profound effect on me because he could have still been alive. Great vid as always.

Fyi, Kammler was a time traveler. It was his Die Glocke time travel device that was found on December 9, 1965, at Kecksburg, Pennsylvania.
I know this is a touchy topic, since the Vatican is not clearly the good guys, but their Chronovisor helped the Sicilian Mafia and US Italian Mafia to look into the vectors of time to aid the Allies
Dr Felton,the archival footage you use,and also surviving photographs is particularly remarkable,it really is a lost art of documentary making, for that reason I will continue you to support your channel with donations were I can,thank you.
The one question that always bugs me is: How suspicious if at all were the Germans of the breaking of code of their Enigma machines? I would have thought that the hasty build-up of defensive positions at Kursk might have at least alerted them.
Is was broken many times. They would change the cryptography of the letters and numbers then. Whenever they suspected it was compromised. For example a U-boat was captured, the Germans didn't know, so the allies could listen in on some U-boat and Kriegsmarine communications. Enigma messages were compartmentalized on a need to know basis. So nazi 1 wouldn't understand nazi 2's Enigma communication unless nazi 1 had a need to know. For example, they are both on the same missions or cooperation between army and luftwaffe, etc
A bit late too the party. But reports would suggest if they were they didn't do a lot about it. In North Africa in the arse end of no where over looking nothing but sand and sky the Germans had an outpost that reported in every morning. They would say the same thing using an enigma machine "Nothing to report". It was that Outpost that allowed the allied forces to know what the Enigma codes were that day because they knew what that message said everyday.
@@loading9110 that's hilarious xD
Read spy catcher, provides amazing insight into enigma and spy craft used to figure out
After the war a German general said: whenever we attacked, it was an allied strong point, whenever we were attacked, it was at our weak point. The allies always said that they had a spy in the OKW. They likely did, but Enigma ('Ultra') was the real treasure box of intel. The French underground before Overlord, for example, were told to destroy telephone lines, to force German military comms onto radio which could be intercepted.
Bang on! Great stuff, Mark. Kammler is like a submarine. Not a sieg heiling public figure, but a big shot mover and shaker. His sweeping under the rug is pretty damning. I expect he lived long and comfortably to perish at a ripe old age. Bearded in Bariloche, maybe. Curious the Jews never caught up with him. Eichmann was a bureaucrat. Kammler was a foundation stone. There was the guy with the saucer tech. As the war reached it's climax, Kammler confessed to Speer that he was headed underground. There may have been an invite to come along. He should taken the opportunity. He did 20 years in Spandau.
That is a pretty incredible idea that there was argument in favor of leaving Hitler alive due to a string of his own bad decisions. "Don't interrupt the enemy when he is making a mistake"
Don't* (obviously a Napoleon Bonaparte quote)
This caught my attention as well. In some respects, I think it does make sense. After the tide was turning in favour of the Allies, his erratic behaviour arguably meant that he was more destructive to the Nazi war machine than some of the potentially more capable "lieutenants" waiting in the wings to take over. Also by this stage, I would suspect that years of Allied intelligence effort had been spent understanding Hitler's behaviour. For example he was arguably a very poor strategist. Perhaps it is always better to know your enemy and especially his weaknesses? I suspect that if there was an overwhelming concensus between Allied military advisors to assassinate Hitler, they probably would have. Maybe better to target his top Nazi generals instead? However, this was not straightforward. This was attempted. I believe the only operation, backed by the British and exiled Czech government, to kill a top Nazi was Anthropoid. Although it resulted in the assassination of Heydrich, this arguably backfired as hundreds of Czech's were executed in reprisal. As Mark mentioned in this video, the later Operation Foxley to assassinate Hitler was cancelled. If he had been assassinated, not only could a more capable strategist have taken control but the German people would have no doubt viewed Hitler as a martyr and it may have strengthened their resolve fight plus triggered goodness knows what atrocious retribution?
@@hedgehog1965uk Quite right. Thanks for the correction. I thought this was a Sun Tzu quote but it looks like you are right about authorship with Napoleon as well. Well, at least I had the idea right. LOL
Great comment Steve GMOHUU. Thanks
@@kirkjohnson9353 Oh, you mean from "The Art of War"? I can see why you would think that.
Sounds like a good idea , But Think of the Propaganda Coup that would have happened if they had killed Hitler . The effects on Germany would have been enormous . And with this massive allied war machine already knocking on Germany's door , I think who ever took over would most likely want to come to terms . Just another "what if " in the annals of history.

Love your channels and the fact that you don't rush or cut corners to meet your time line unlike other UA-cam history channels. WW2 history specialy the European front is the most important warning about the dangers of hate, mental grooming and self destruction.
Kammler had so many death cover stories he could have probably just gone back to Germany and lived out his life with a new name.
He was one of the most important Nazis that you never heard of. He definitely handed his V2 program over to the US versus Russia.
Easy way to find Kammler is to follow the footsteps of Mrs. Kammler which was too eager to declare him dead.

@Simon KG it is pretty well documented a lot of them wen to South America.
That would be nice to have Dr Felton gives us his view about the infamous projects linked to Hans Kammler which are "die Glocke" and the whole "die Riese" site in Poland. Nick Cook and Igor Witkowski's books were interesting but some of their theories are in my opinion far-fetched and at lest lacking real historical proofs. But since their books I didn't find much new information apart from more and more wild theories, or maybe I missed them. I would like to read more real historical research on theses subject. My own opinion is that "die Glocke" could be more linked to Germany's nuclear programms for which there is still a lot to write about.
The Hunt for Zero Point is a terrific read, much better then most scifi novels. Anyone interested in decent scifi fiction based upon fact might read W.A. Harbinson's 'Project Sauce, Book One: Inception. Hans Kammler figures rather prominently in the story. Witkowski's book is difficult to find, having been originally printed in Polish, translated into English, and then published in limited quantities. It's well worth finding, being perhaps the only academic source using recently declassified GDR and Polish military sources never published in English. Based on his eastern sources, including those from the former Soviet Union, Witkoski's rejects many British and American assessments of Nazi wunderweapons. His most incredible discussion involves 'die Glock', a project managed by Kammler, and based in Silesia now in southern Poland. If pictures are worth a thousand words then Witkoski's images of the experiment's Silesian ruins and its Polish-Sov-GDR 1980s replication speak volumes. What the project involved remains unclear but the Sovs believed it was concerned with antigravity. We know it used huge amounts of high voltage and a branch of physics not generally acknowledged in the west. The project was given a higher security clearance and greater resources priority then the V weapons and the atomic bomb projects. Interesting that to this day almost nothing is ever heard about this die Glock in western sources. One needs to see the photographs to appreciate understand that is project wasn't fantasy. Kammler also oversaw the various Nazi sauced projects, which is interesting in light of die Glock's antigravity associations.

He was certainly an asset to the Red Army; his insistence that the Germans defend all Russian territory captured, rather than fall back to more defensible areas like the generals wanted, likely shortened the war on the Eastern Front by a year.

You have no clue how right you are ;-) There are a lot of different stories what happened to Kammler, a very interesting one is this: It was not Ufos, but Kammler discovered time anomalies in various places on Mount Untersberg in Salzburg/Austria. In 2020 a dutch tourist climbed up the mount with his daughter, she went into one of the many caves and her father couldn't see her anymore, she disappeared right before his eyes. He searched her for several hours, the daugther finally appeared again and told him she has been in the cave for only ten seconds! In 2015 Norwegian tourists saw a man dressed in an unknown uniform walking down a steep path on Mount Untersberg, he looked like Kammler himself (not aged, he looked exactly like in the WW2 footage). The Norwegians never arrived home (local newspaper reported about this). Don't know if this story is true but it's creepy nonetheless and good stuff for a movie or novel...
@@haraldschiner6837 I saw a doc once where in, a guy who collected compasses, bought a strange compass from a yard sale. The thing looked nothing like a compass, and he barley even recognized it as one. He being somewhat a compass expert. It was totally mechanical, and used no magnets. It did have a manufacturer name on it, and he managed to get in contact with a fellow who knew about such devices. So turns out, the damn thing was a "Luftwaffe" compass, that was incredibly rare. The conclusion that was reached, was that it was to be used in some sort of gravitational anomaly. Where normal magnetic compasses wouldn't read correctly.
He then returned to where he had purchased the compass, and inquired about it. The man who had sold the thing to him, told him that he had been contracted by some military bases, to haul loads of old military junk to scrap yards. The man had a small fleet of trucks, and worked hauling scrap for the U.S. military in the 1950's, and occasionally he would rummage through some of it. He would keep a few things here and there, and that compass was one of them. Interesting enough story, but the question remains "why would the Luftwaffe take the time to build complicated mechanical compasses, if they had not needed them for something?" I for one am a firm believer in that there "are things that we simply don't understand." I wouldn't be surprised if Kammler didn't disappear into the mountain. Thanks for sharing your idea. All the best to you Sir.
Excellent work, Mark. Your documentaries are fascinating and interesting to watch. Thanks for sharing your hard work, it's much appreciated.
Really appreciate your work. Concise, yet rich in detail. As a kid I collected Purnells History of Ww2. Played Avlon Hills war games trying to reverse the outcome of certain battles. Would be great should you ever delve into the Congo/Katanga conflict. Once again, many thanks.
Great story. I don’t really understand his value to the US. Also seeing Von Braun with President Kennedy was shocking to me only about seventeen years after the war. Wasn’t Von Braun complicit is the use of slave labor?
I do understand that he was important to the us as our German scientist(s) to counter the Soviets German scientists.
Americans have no honour so who knows, he might have simply been a trophy of the americans.
Operation Paperclip
Unfortunately von Braun was not even the worst that U S and the allies "found usses" for. His bosses also worked for Kammler and the U S space program. There are a few books about Operation Paperclip ( two of the best have it in the title. > on the othe hand, 'Project Paperclip' here on yt will give you chills and hope < ).
It has also been said that Von Braun carried the rank of Major in the SS.
@Ordinary Sessel So was Henry Ford in fact he donated a large sum of money to the nazis
@19 Forte Why should v. Braun have been executed? He was mainly an opportunist, I doubt if he really was a convinced Nazi. He tolerated and accepted the terrible conditions under which the slave laborors had to work. But he was not the one who organized the slave labor.
Yet another Dr. Mark Felton master production.
Yes he escaped. I had no idea who he was as a child when I met him, seemed like a very nice old man, but many years later I figured out who he was. I met him in like late September of 1986 I believe, and he still had that odd jaw line, that was a big thing that stood out to me. Well that, his gold skunk lapel he gave to me to play with(I think I still have it someplace, has the letters ARPA on it) and the rather large amount of nazi paraphernalia in the apartment.
For context he was my godmothers father. He came to visit her when she was taking care of me. They had a huge stockpile of nazi stuff that they were going through, photographs, propaganda posters, even a nazi balloon. He was in a lot of the photographs.
I remember one huge photo album filled with stuff from the war, its all hazy now because I was just a kid, but the cover had a picture of him and some guy named Viktor Schauberger some place with air plane hangers in the United States like in the 50's or something, but he was super happy to get it from her, she had panted the outside of it in a cool red and gold pattern, and she made a bunch of collages on the inside. Probably not useful info lol.
I don't really remember anything he said. The only other thing I remember was his strange triangle watch, never seen another like it, always wanted one. Its kind of scary now that I think about the fact I was in a room with this guy as a kid.
Also their last names had obviously changed. If you don't believe me that's your proactive, I could care less, but it was absolutely him. Yes he is dead now, and so is she, in case you were wondering. I have no idea why she lived in North Carolina, but that is where he came to visit her, and where I met him.
Funny enough I am working towards getting a job at a rocket company via an internship. Oh the irony. If you read this far down, you are an awesome person, and have a wonderful day.
The triangle watch you saw was probably an American triangular electric wristwatch, Hamilton(?) from the 1950s. It was one of the first electric watches.
Interesting, have a good day as well
@@tomfrazier1103 Thank you so much! I always wondered what it was.
Ughhh, the banality of evil, his daughter makes collages of his old Nazi photos.
If only you could upload some of the photos in the album as proof, but it'll probably put you on a watchlist or something.
Thanks a lot for showing this report about one of the most mysterious person's in the Nazi - regime.
It's always a great moment to me watching your videos!!
Greetings from Austria 👍🇦🇹
Hans Kammler and Heinrich Mueller crash landed into the future inside Die Glocke December 9th 1965 Kecksburg Pennsylvania and we cant deny that bizarre possibility.
Lol😂
Definitely got himself a cushy little job working for the U.S government.
I can confirm that. You are absolutely right.
@@xanderunderwoods3363 Lol confirm it with no proof? Claiming this is bearing false witness and that is a sin, I'm not perfect myself either, just letting you know. Peace be to you all
BS
Nowhere in this video or elsewhere dose anyone claim he had a cushy life after the war. If fact, the idea that he probably killed himself suggests otherwise. I know in the confused heads of conspiracy theorists, the government is full of evil men in black, but the reality is a little different.
nah hes in South America
