    The German army in ww2 was well trained , well equipped , well motivated , battle hardened and had better kit in a lot of cases than most of it's opponents they may well have won the war had they not taken on the sleeping giant of Russia as well as Fighting France , Poland , Netherlands etc and of course Great Britain . Had America not also entered the war (late but non the less welcome ) . Germany may have ended up winning the European war and dominating Europe thereafter . I am British and patriotic to my country but you can't help wonder what might have been under different circumstances , and yes I have respect for the average german soldier who fought as bravely for their country as any allied soldier fought for his not with standing the .(atrocities and the Holocaust being the responsibility mainly of the extremists side of the German war machine and Nazi party in particular )

      Germany lacked the strategic resources to fight a long war so they had to achieve all their objectives as quickly as possible to avoid being bogged down into a war of attrition.
      You say that the US entered the war late but the US spent years after declarations of war preparing for the invasions. The US simply lacked the capacity to seriously challenge the Axis forces for years after Pearl Harbor. Time was also on the Allies side as they had access to the resources of an entire continent whereas Germany never even managed to take control of the strategic resources which were the object of its invasion of the Soviet Union. Thus the Allies pursued a long war strategy in order to bring all of North America’s industrial capacity to bear on the Axis.
      Germany assumed that the Soviet Union would basically collapse after they kicked in the front door and that Britain would accept a political settlement after their boys were driven into the sea. Neither of those things happened but, remarkably, Germany maintained cohesion basically until its society was literally destroyed.

    In the end, Europe and the USA were lucky Germany was stupid enough to attack Russia. Had they not done that they would have won the war. The Germans DID have far superior weaponry but thanks to the losses suffered in Russia, they lacked the numbers to go against the sheer volume of soldiers the USA was able to bring. Hitler very early on started to believe his own fantasies of invincibility and that's what made him make stupid decisions. That and a lack of resources. The latter was the reason why the Tiger and King Tiger weren't put into production early on. Only in late 1944 was it decided to produce more but Maybach never developed an engine for those monster tanks and they had to put in the same engine the Leopard tanks had which was way too weak to get the Tigers to drive at a decent speed, especially in rough terrain, where the Tigers barely got to a measly 5mph...

They also seized number of US small arms from the Browning FN factory in Belgium to Bazookas, even M1Garands & BARs which they researched to to see how they could make better. Germany made a better SAW -- StG43/44. I don't believe they made any Garand developments. Also I believe they made a 45.acp SMG later in the war, having already started using captured Tokarov 7.62rds

      It depends on what division/unit you are talking about. Even Leibstandarte was low on quality officers due to the survivors going to Hohenstaufen and Hitlerjugend. A good amount of the Wermarcht troops in normandy were not even German but ost-truppen which made up much of the static troops defending the Atlantic wall. Panzer lehr was the best German divison in normandy. The Fallshirmjager and the SS and regular panzer divisions would be considered crack but most of the infantry and Luftwaffe field divisions had much to desire. Remember German weekly news isn't going to show you the raggedy ass security divisions pulling a shit cannon with a donkey.

    • @desertbootguy
      @desertbootguy 5 років тому

      One thing is often missed concerning the Sherman. It's the fact that it was SHIPPED to Europe and you need ships, a lot of them, to carry the task. Patton in particular, didn't want bigger and heavier tanks in smaller number. A bigger tank takes more room on the boats, it means fewer tanks delivered to the front. Also, Patton didn't want to lose time training tankers on a new machine. He wanted to rush on Germany. May be for good reasons. But he got the point. As a matter of act, he didn't even want to switch to the higher velocity 76mm gun for the same training reason. It was to costly in time. He was very influential. That's why the US army had a tank that was no match to heavier German armor. Plus the doctrine. Tanks, the American ones, were supposed to support infantry. German tanks were supposedly dealt with Tank destroyers.
      But the Sherman had its qualities. It was faster, far more reliable than German machines and it was a match to the PZIV ...

      The Brits were basically involved from the beginning. Churchill approached FDR many, many times pleading for the US to enter the war. A lot of people forget that Russia was an ally of Germany when they invaded Poland early on and they signed a non aggression pact with Germany. The US didn't officially enter the war until they were attacked by Japan. Many people also do not realize that the US was supplying Britain with a lot of war supplies before entering the war and that the US even sent troops to Iceland to take over for the Brits before entering the war as well. Don't forget that someone would have had to eventually take on Japan if the US didn't enter the war. Who might that have been? Germany truly may have still won the war if the US had never sent war supplies to Britain early on and if the US didn't actually enter the war. This is just trying to be impartial. The bottom line is thankfully WE won together.

      No one is talking about exterminating people or concentration camps, etc.. No-one said :exterminating people will cause you to lose wars". That's what you added. No one is taking sides for anyone here, it's simply about history. This is just about what people refer to as "war".
      What the Nazi's did beside traditional war is a different topic entirely and wasn't being discussed. Everyone knows exterminating people was/is wrong but it seems like some people have to automatically bring that into any conversation abut the Germans and WWll. There are plenty of videos and comments on the Nazi war crimes and crimes against humanity if that's what you're looking for. This wasn't one of them.

      Japan was almost its own war and the Italians became a liability that eventually switched to the ally side. Were the Balkan states and few others really a force to be reckoned with in the war? Can any compare to Canada, Australia, etc.? Germany didn't have an ally that was a huge asset............
      once they turned on Russia. Russia was their ally when Poland was up for grabs though.

      Actually Rommel said that Italian soldiers were the best he saw. And I believe him too. Just imagine that majority of Italian soldiers were fighting for the hated Mussolini, and also got sent with scarce and cheap equipment of war (planes, cannons, tanks...). So they had to have a lot of guts to fight knowing that they couldn't compete against the Allies.

    Shermans were a MEDIUM tank, they never were meant to go toe to toe with the German HEAVY tanks. The US stuck with the Shermans because beside reliability they could transport large numbers of them on ships and trains. To deal with German heavy tanks tank destroyers, air and artillery were used. The Brits did one more thing with there Sherman tanks by putting there "17 pounder" gun in them. AKA Sherman Firefly.

      The comentator refers to the allies as the "enemy" and the nazis as "our troops", which leads me to believe its a portuguese footage, since Portugal had a fascist regime at the time of the war.
