More video's about the world war 2 : • LOOKING BACK 1940-1945...
In het najaar van 1944 landde een bataljon Britse en Noorse commano's bij Westkapelle om Walcheren te bevrijden. De Noorse oorlogsverslaggever Per Jonson ging met hen mee en filmde de zware strijd tegen de Duitse bezetters. In een extra aflevering van Trugkieke 40-45 ziet u de documentaire van circa 14 minuten, met Nederlandse ondertiteling.

I've seen this footage several times the previous years. It never fails to impress me.
My grandfather Christian Grung Olsen at 9:56+ on the left with the round helmet! And on 12:19 guarding the three captives! :)
+Hans Christian My grandfather, Ludvig Smaaskjær, at 9min 9. Thanks so much for putting this up. Have no other memories of him other as photographs. Just a few seconds of film means an awful lot. :-)
Thank u for liberating us! 🇳🇴🇳🇱
etternavnet mitt er også olsen, og jeg er også norsk, men jeg bor i Nederland
Thanks to your Family-members for FREEDOM 💖
Fantastic that you recognise him ! A very brave man to have become a Commando and trained by the British Commandos . Those boys were hard as nails , and still are .
My father, a Royal Navy telegraphist attached to the Royal Marine Commandoes, took part in the Walcheren landings. He also said that they were more bloody than Juno Beach on D Day. Great to see Belgians and Norwegians bravely fighting alongside the other allies.
Excellent docu. Thanks to those brave Norwegians, Belgians and Canadians that took part.
But where are been the Duch commando s??????????????,ore the prinses Irene brigade ?????????????,

Robert toch, nog steeds niet het boek:
Westerling DE EENLING gelezen?
I didn't know that Norwegian commandos were involved in the liberation of Walcheren. Thanks Norway! And of course thanks to all other allied forces!
The Norwegians were part of the Royal Commandos and also trained with the 52nd Lowland Division (Mountain) in the Highlands of Scotland, they trained as mountain troops. They were training for the liberation of Norway and the Norwegians were to be interpreters for the Scots. The liberation of Norway wasn't required, but the Lowland Div was sent to Walcheren.
Always a joke as they trained as mountain troops and ended up fighting inland below sea level.
Come visit Walcheren this year, Holland is honoring the brave men who fought here.
doesnt sound like you are honouring the british ttat fell in the battle for holland
cool video, stay last week in westkapelle and domburg, thanks
Erg mooie beelden!
I was yesterday in Walcheren. What a beautiful region, and the people are nice. But I saw little if any announcements regarding commemoration of these tough days. Nice video of the Norwegians and Belgians from 10th Inter-Allied Commando landing near Westkapelle and fighting hard in dire circumstances. Just before the three minutes mark, one can recognise Captain G. Danloy leading the Belgians into combat.
gevaarlijk zeg
My Dad was RN on this invasion with no4 commando he was on LCA's, out of his flotilla of 8 craft only 3 made it ashore he always said for his little group of craft it was much worse than D-Day. after the battle for the island he was sent up the canal to the centre of Middelburgh he ran across the square and stole the Nazi banner that hung outside of the town hall. I still have, but think I will return it to the town as I have no relatives to pass it on to.
Lee B do you still have the flag ?
Because my grandpa lived there during the war and he s looking to Find items from the area
Het verhaal gaat dat de hoofdmacht van de Canadezen niet aanwezig was bij de landing en dat 3 vaartuigen (ducks)met enkele bemanningen een boer uit West Kapelle dwongen hen naar Middelburg te leiden, waar een groot Duits garnizoen lag.
De betrokken boer was doodsbang omdat er zo weinig Canadezen in deze 3 vaartuigen zaten en hij kennis had van de grootte van het aanwezige Duitse garnizoen.
De bevelvoerende Canadese officier wist met bluf te verklaren , dat hij de voorhoede was van een grote legereenheid en de Duitse hogere officier in Middelburg te bewegen de overgave te doen tekenen, maar niet nadat via telegrafisch berichtgeving de Canadese officier per direct eenzelfde status als de Duitse garnizoenscommandant werd gegeven, daar de Duitser zich niet aan een officier lager in rang wilde overgeven.
De Duitse militairen werden op de Dam samengedreven en op 3 punten onder schot gehouden.
Volgens overlevering was pas na 3 dagen de hoofdmacht van de Canadezen gearriveerd.
Excellent footage. Very rare. A real find!
agree!
Yes I do agree too!
I never knew that there were Norwegian and Belgian forces amongst "our" liberators... :-( All we hear at Memorial Day (May 4th) and Liberation Day (May 5th) is about American, Canadian, and some British and Polish forces. Of course, this is mainly about the Operation Market Garden, but these "smaller" (really?) battles were just as important. Thanks a lot for your contributions and offers Norway and Belgium!
Yeah, its not very reconized sadly enough :/
Five brothers in my father' s family, Jews from then french Algeria: One was killed in the battle for Sienna in Italy one was killed in the Voges mointains and one wounded in the landing in Provence, French expeditionary corp, in the year 1944. Who remembers these battles?
hello en dat the city s Wessem Ophoven Thorn door the Belgain brigade Piron is bevrijd leren jully in Holland zeker ook niet op school?????????,,,, te veel voor die Belgen zeker ?
We zijn zo blij met onze vrijheid, we delen dit en verwelkomen iedereen in Nederland en die iedereen deelt dit gedachtengoed .......................klinkt mooi héh, je zou maar gestorven zijn voor die vrijheid en hierboven erachter komen dat we deze ten grabbel gooien. Mijn vader hielp zijn vader met verzetboekjes te vouwen en rond te fietsen. Mijn vader is onlangs overvallen door jammeldegammelallah uit het opvangcentrum. Mijn woede is ongeëvenaard groot..... wie komt ons nu bevrijden?
my grandfather on 00.32 to the left:)
respects aux anciens
O comando 40 show de bola em combate os caras ótimos,muito bons
Is there another newsreel film featuring the liberation of Zouteland? My father was part of 48 Royal Marine Commando and was involved in this part of the operation Infatuate 2. He was wounded again on the last day of the battle for Walcheren in the village of Seeroskirke, after the buffeloe he was travelling was blown up by the Germans.
Didn't know the Norwegians helped to liberate the Netherlands
Thanks to all Norwegian soldiers
and the bloody Belgain commando s,
Belgain brigade Piron liberate the Dutch city s; Ophoven , Wessem, Thorn, entcr.
On 2:45. Captain George " Chesty". DANLOY....legendary founding father of the Belgian Commando Regiment. Walcheren is still a citation on the banner of 2 Commando BN of the BE Special Operations Regiment. Unknown to many but Walcheren was a bloody and vicious battle in the end game of WW II
Thus was one of the most strategic operations after D-Day. My folks were kids on the island. Does anyone know any RAF spitfire and Typhoon pilots shot down near Koudekerke. Read Joe Brown's (now 92 yrs) account from the Scottish Highlanders who got General Daser to surrender in Middelburg. Any German relatives of General Rinehardt, Daser? My grandfather fed an older German soldier who didn't want to be there and after dinner listened to the BBC for progress on the war. Sadly The German soldier went home to a bombed city (Munster) where his family perished. Lots of tragedy on the German side. General Daser was a career soldier and not a Nazi.
er staat nergens vermeld dat er belgische commando s zijn gesneuveld op walcheren bij de bevrijding ,typisch Nederlanders

blz.36,37 en 38.
Vooral de kleine lettertjes.
Is there any chance to watch this video in better quality? Or even without subtitles? Tried google it, but no results :(
There is only this footage that we know of.
Onderaan de Nehalenniaweg stonden ook twee noorse huizen. 1 is er in 1995 afgebrand, de andere van mijn opa en oma geweest staat er nog (de Bruinvis) en nog steeds in de familie.
I think my Grandad may be the marine in the cap comforter who looks up at the camera at 53 seconds in
This was very important,and its changed history,thank you Canada Forces,English forces, American Forces
My grandfather was Bert (Harry) Coote
On Wikipedia, only for the full "Slag om de Schelde" (battle for the Scheldt) all participants are listed with their losses:
Canada
United Kingdom
Poland
Belgium
Netherlands
Norway
Losses (killed, wounded, missing): 12,873
Almost half, 6,367 were Canadian losses.
After the war there was not "Stunde nul" for the people, but 10 feet of water.
who was your grandfather ,my great uncle was Dennis Fogg tragically killed in the buffalo
With respect for the soldiers. But the film itself is a little bit coloured and here and there staged. The battle was much and much heavier than the film suggest. The Germans fought like hell, and dind't spare nothing. But now it looks like that the commando's run over them if there was no restistance at all. That's not the real thing. The German troops where there for years and they know every corner or bending of the islands. It was heavy, very heavy with a lot of mistakes of the allies, because they dind't know the terrain. It is better to say that the allies have to fight a bitterhard battle against a warhardenend enemy. It is in my opnion better to let see the truth of a dirty war, than this socalled boyscout romantism of how easy it was to win. The reality is the right witness. And you give by doing so the soldiers who fought this heavy bloody fight all the honour what they disserved. A battle is not easy and the enemy is not always a lame duck. The high number of dead soldiers at both side say enough. Walcheren was not a piece of cake, but real hell.
Watch “fortgotten Battle”.
And Norway Forces also thanks
A tall commando looked like my uncle. ? But he fought with his brother in Burma with 44 commando.!??
I do the same...my father was in 47 RM Commando at Walcheren, and I'm sure i saw him...
My father, Dennis Ward, RM Commando at the time of this invasion on DUKWs and Buffaloes. His was the first wave as beach commandos. He and his mate went round the wrong side of the island apparently! It would be good to hear from anyone who’d also heard this story.
Fabulous footage, although some of it seems a bit staged.
My father was in 47 RM Commando at Walcheren, I think he found it worse than D-Day
Heroes all!
How can you dislike any footage like this? What kind of people are this?
Neo-Nazis.
Hard to watch, my grandfather was killed in this battle.
He RIP!
So sad to hear . Bless that man and honour him forever. R.I.P.
Er klopen hier 1paar dingen niet

At 02.45 Major Danloy.
my uncle lost life there november the 6th 1944 french commando
So sad to hear. Honour him forever. R.I.P.
RIP.
And Belgain commando s
Wat is die "oorlogsmuziek" die overal doorheen blaast toch een ellende! Daar kan Omroep Zeeland waarschijnlijk niets aan doen...
Nee. Zo ging dat nu eenmaal vroeger.
I have war bonds to sell
This movie was made by a Norwegian commando taking part in the invasion, here in the original Norwegian edition ua-cam.com/video/579bk98l3VM/v-deo.html
Amazing pictures, didn't know the Norwegians were there as well!
2700 burgers gingen dood,ze verzopen.
It’s a pity that the modern so called historians(especially the amateur ones on the Internet), don’t pay more attention to the news reels of the day, because then they would see that the different peoples who had joined the British services, were not ignored, or hidden on purpose(except for by certain ignorant officers and people), but were in fact celebrated for their involvement in the fight against the nazis, wherever and whenever possible........... Which some of these modern “historians” and commentators like to pretend never happened, while they make their wild and uninformed comments, but these claims can be shown for the ignorance or lies that they truly are..............
Jeg vil takke nordmennene fordi De må frigjøre oss.
The dutch failed to defend dutch east india from the Japanese invation, that showed the quality of the dutch and the superiority of the Japanese
It was the Jewish president Roosevelt, who forced the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbor, because of the oil boycott against the Japanese.
The oilfields in Sumatra and Java were the closest ones for oil.
www.globalresearch.ca/articles/WOO203A.html
Ade Damanhuri, not only the Dutch failed, but also the English and the Aussie, New Zealanders, it is not a question of quality, but numbers and better weapons. And the Japanese where militarially strong in that time, look what they did with the American fleet. Another thing is that the Dutch never have defend East India, because we dind have troops there and we never ever had troops there. So I don't no where you have this information from. Indonesia was in that time a Dutch colony and Japan invade the Islands of Indonesia. But before that our fleet had a long and heavy seabattle with the Japanese fleet in the Pacific Ocean for three days and we lost most of our warships but the japanese lost two heavy cruisers and a couple of other warboats. That gave the small Australian fleet the oppertunity to escape from a total collapse of their own fleet and could sail away to Australia. I can assure you that the Dutch fought the whole war with submarines and quarilla´s in the jungle of Indonesia. There is lecture about that and maeby is it good to read that first before you have an ordeal about others. Quantity or superiority is not the same as quality. And at the end Japan lost that war isn't? Just like Hitler. Our second enemy, we fought with.
@@tompouceful We had KNIL troops, but de islands of the East Indies were too large to defend, so the guerrilla warfare was the only thing to resist.
@@kareldekale4987 you should be ashamed of this ignorant, anti-semitic comment. The imperial powers, including Netherlands and Gt Britain couldn't realistically have defended their colonies against the Japanese.
