What I love so much about Battlefield is the depth they go into. Its not just about the title of the video/battlw but the lead up,units,commanders,tactics/operational planning and the aftermath of the battles. Its is so impressive that these documentaries are almost 20 or more years old and are better than most docs we get today!!!!! Not just better than docs od today but hold up after all these years factually also impressiveness and still teach me things I had no idea about these battles!! Ive been watching these since I was a kid. Now im 23 years old and I still enjoy this series!!

my father was in the battle of the bulge. he complained about the British taking their supplies , munitions medical supplies and food to be used in the British push up north leaving the Americans short of munitions food and medicines.when the Germans attacked the Americans were left short of everything,their supplies had been stripe by Monty who ha been placed in charge. as as result the Americans lost over 90 000 men due to the shortage of munitions and medical supplies and men. it was not just Americans who die needlessly, but poles who were short changed and who were poured into the battle even though Monty was told the attackers a failure. Monty didn't care about polish , American, Canadian polish or french casualties that were lost. when told about the German counter attack Monty offered relieve the besieged Americans and Canadians in two weeks but Patton was so competent he relieved them in 48 hours even though his forces were twice as far away to relieve the besieged troops there. my father was a Canadian whose troops had been abandoned by Monty. Monty was not only less competent but care nothing about his own men.he was warned previous to his attack on the Rhine bridges, but he risked the entire war to inflate his own ego / Monty was the best helper in the allied army the Germans had.

Your words in 'single quotes'... ‘my father was in the battle of the bulge. he complained about the British taking their supplies , munitions medical supplies and food to be used in the British push up north leaving the Americans short of munitions food and medicines.’ But why should he form such an opinion? There was a temporary priority of supplies for 21st Army Group in only September 1944. The battle of the bulge did not start until December 1944. ‘when the Germans attacked the Americans were left short of everything,their supplies had been stripe by Monty who ha been placed in charge. as as result the Americans lost over 90 000 men due to the shortage of munitions and medical supplies and men.’ Where is there evidence that American forces were short of supplies during the battle of the bulge and that such a shortage caused 90,000 deaths? ‘it was not just Americans who die needlessly, but poles who were short changed and who were poured into the battle even though Monty was told the attackers a failure.’ There were no Polish forces in the battle of the bulge. ‘Monty didn't care about polish , American, Canadian polish or french casualties that were lost. when told about the German counter attack Monty offered relieve the besieged Americans and Canadians in two weeks but Patton was so competent he relieved them in 48 hours even though his forces were twice as far away to relieve the besieged troops there.' There were no Canadian forces in the bulge. The only besieged American forces were in the southern half of the bulge. Montgomery was asked to take charge of the northern half of the bulge and therefore this matter was nothing to do with him. In any case, it took 10 days to relieve those besieged Americans, not 48 hours. ‘my father was a Canadian whose troops had been abandoned by Monty.’ According to what you stated above, your father was in the battle of the bulge. There were no Canadians in the bulge. So what was he, American or Canadian? ‘Monty was not only less competent but care nothing about his own men.’he was warned previous to his attack on the Rhine bridges, but he risked the entire war to inflate his own ego / Monty was the best helper in the allied army the Germans had.’ Montgomery’s casualty record was better than any other senior allied commander - the statistics make that absolutely clear. When did Montgomery risk the entire war to inflate his own ego? As I stated, read a history book.

Montgomery is probably responsible for thousands of British and American lives by his incompetence. He promised Caen in a day or two; he allowed half of the German army out of the Falaise pocket - he promised to take Argentan but could not -Patton did; Patton wanted to go ahead and take Falaise to close the gap but was stopped. simply look at the map to see how little ground Montgomery was able to advance; he was responsible for keeping the trapped 15th German army in the Calais pocket - trapped bewteen his forces and the Atlantic sea - he didnt - another army escaped on water; this was the same 15th army that helped defeat the Market Garden operations which he designed, he ignored his own intelligence report confirmed by the Dutch underground that there were two panzer armies near arnhem - this is criminal. The worse part is that he claims something like the Market Garden was 95% successful. He also claims that he defeated the Germans in the Battle of the bulge in a press conference in Jan 1945 not even mentioning the Americans.

General Bradley reluctantly followed orders which he KNEW would allow the bulk of the German army to escape. He never forgave himself for this. It is yet another example of his close emotional bond to the soldiers under his command, thus why he was nicknamed "The soldier's General" by his troops. Fact: Montgomery was in command. Fact: when you are in command, YOU are responsible...period. There is no wiggle room here for your revisionist, make Britain look better damned the facts, damn the cost...revisionist blather here boy. Once again, you have been caught red handed trying to lie about history. You really are no challenge at all. Oh, and everybody, one of his favorite things to say in posts is and I quote "I have forgotten more about this subject than you will ever know..do you really think you know more about this than I do?".That is a direct quote from another WWII thread where he tried in that case just plain lies and someone responded back in a post.

This documentary does not mention the Tiger tanks, how the GIs, in disgust, called the Shermans "Ronsons" meaning Ronson cigarette lighters, because they would catch fire very soon. When faced with a Tiger, they would sooner hightail it out of there, as they were no match for the Tigers. Only the American SPs with their 105mm guns could take on the Tiger tanks. Secondly, they did not mention the way the GIs suffered from frost because of their boots which were not capable of stopping water from seeping through. Thousands of them were were out of action, suffering from frost bite during and before the Battle of the Bulge; in contrast, the germans had better footwear, their jackboots amply protected from water and snow. Still it is far better than other documentaries.

Abbas Ali Pretty sure the sherman fireflies were able to punch through tiger armour

I’m proud that Canada punched above its weight! We were only a country of ten million or so at the time. I see why we earned a strong place in the post war order, I’m sorry that our present leadership has squandered that place and good will!

‘The March 24 operation sealed the fate of Germany. Already, of course, we had secured two bridgeheads farther to the south. But in each of these cases surprise and good fortune had favoured us. The northern operation was made in the teeth of the greatest resistance the enemy could provide anywhere along the long river. Moreover, it was launched directly on the edge of the Ruhr and the successful landing on the eastern bank placed strong forces in position to deny the enemy use of significant portions of that great industrial area.’ - US General Dwight D Eisenhower

Per usual left out Book and Page,hold on I'll give you some facts. *From My Three Years With Eisenhower,by Capt.Harry C.Butcher,p.675 - Sept 24,1944,Monty had been pressing for more supplies to 21st Army Group.IKE informed Monty that he had given preference to the left flank(21st Army) through out the campaign* Including the attachments of Air Borne and everything to assure the maintenance.On the other hand all other forces had been fighting with a halter around their necks with respect to supplies. *IKE illustrated that for 4 days straight Patton had been receiving serious counter attacks,yet in 7 days without attempting to any real advance 3rd Army captured 9,000 prisoners and knocked out 270 tanks* The Gerries actually had a real Field Marshall named Model.Who BTW couldn't believe some moron tried to shoehorn a whole column of armor up one single road for 64 miles.But in London this is BRILLIANT,SMDH.and of course Model and Student were present during hostilities while the lewd lemur Monty was a no show *From Eisenhower's Armies,by Dr Niall Barr,page 415* After the failure of Market-Garden,Eisenhower held a conference on 5 October 1944 that not only provided a post mortem on the operation but in which he reiterated his strategy for the campaign.Alan Brooke was present as an observer,noted that IKE's strategy continued to focus on the clearance of the Scheldt Estuary,followed by an advance on the Rhine,the capture of the Ruhr and a subsequent advance on Berlin.After a full and frank discussion in which Admiral Ramsey criticised Montgomery freely,Brooke was moved to write,"I feel that Monty's strategy for once is at fault,instead of carrying out the advance on Arnhem he ought to have made certain of Antwerp in the 1st place.... *IKE nobly took all the blame on himself as he had approved Monty's suggestion to operate on Arnhem"*

Approving Market-Garden was one of the worst decisions Ike ever made. M-G was all about Monty's ego & should NEVER have been attempted. The proper mission of 21st AG was to open Antwerp. They likely could have done so a month earlier than they did. The Western Allies might then have been able to penetrate the Siegfried Line & advance to the Rhine months earlier. Advancing on Berlin likewise made no sense & Ike wisely refused to do it. Strange that the docu profiled the P-38 when the P-47 & Typhoon were far more important to the Rhine campaign.

saulpaulus -- Arnhem was really the last straw for the Americans who had to putting up with Monty's arrogance. He did some brilliant work re-building 8th Army and planning Overlord, but his set-piece battles always underachieved their goals. And the British generals he had working under him with were seldom up to standard to deal with the Germans. Max Hastings, the British historian, made the general statement that only one corps commander in the 21st Army Group was better than mediocre, as compared to half a dozen in the 12th Army Group.

saulpaulus Responsibility for Market Garden ultimately lay with General Eisenhower who by the time of Market Garden was Land Forces Commander and Supreme Allied Commander. In fairness it should be pointed out Eisenhower did not disown the project. At a later date he stated: "I not only approved Market Garden, I insisted upon it." The airborne landings (Market) were the responsibility of the First Allied Airborne Army and its American commander Lieutenant-General Lewis Brereton. The US provide the greater part of the air transport - nearly all of British troops that landed by parachute at Arnhem were transported to the drop zones by US manned aircraft. The whole air transportation plan was the work of the Lieutenant-General Lewis Brereton and his staff. Compared to the Western front as a whole, Market Garden was not that big an undertaking. It was an attack using one corps of the British Second Army who were given a temporary priority in supplies and some, not all of the allied airborne forces, who at that time were in reserve. There was an amount of pressure from the USA for Eisenhower to deploy the allied airborne forces. Twenty First Army Group was the only formation at that time that was in a geographical position to be able to work with a large airborne force for a worthwhile objective. Montgomery was under quite different pressure - to do all he could to bring the war to an end as soon as possible, to minimise casualties due to British manpower shortages and, at the time of Market Garden to act against the ‘V Weapons’ campaign against London which was killing thousands of civilians, something that Americans could not relate to. A proportion of these weapons were being aimed at Britain from launch sites in the Netherlands.

So very true Mr. Rees. Here in the United States, the Hollywood effect has most people ignorant of Russia's monstrously heavy cost, Britain standing alone in the west-- until after Pearl Harbor. Yes, the Lend-Lease act was instrumental prior, however it is not the same as the blood of a nation's generation shed, of course. America's industry, British tenacity, Russian blood may be the three greatest factors in the Allied victory. Never to take light all the lives lost, though of course.

I don't know why so many commentators think Hitler was foolish to "use his forces on one last gamble". He had always been a gambler and this time he really had very little to lose: yes, the end would come sooner if they failed, but Hitler was only interested in victory, not defeat a few months later.

Those who flew the P-38 Lightening said it was like driving a Cadillac. Smooth, very fast, powerful. A flight of sixteen P-38s intercepted Admiral Yamamoto's plane (one of two Betty bombers) and six escorting Zeroes, as I recall. He was shot down over the jungle of Bougainville on 4/18/43. He was visiting various islands as a morale boost for Japanese troops. Didn't work out quite as he'd planned thanks to our code breakers who knew his itinerary and also knew that he was compulsively punctual. The USA had a score to settle with him. Those P-38 pilots saw to that in what was a nearly perfect mission.

+18tangles P-38s served their purposes in Europe. They could fly higher and faster than any other fighter and were therefore good for reconnaissance/photography. Their range was greater than any other fighter, so until the introduction of the 'drop-tank' P-51D in 1944, they were a preferred escort for bomber squadrons. They could also carry a 1K pound bomb. -- My mother worked on P-38 assembly in Burbank. She was a spot welder. At the same time, my father was in the 3rd Division, 1st Army, in France and Germany.

Thank goodness it isn't edited.

I was and still am a huge fan of WWII history and I have zero tolerance for inaccuracies and deceptions when it comes to books, videos, films & documentaries on WWII. It's always irritated me when all of these venues have either excluded or covered up all the failed missions, battles and/or campaigns of Bernard Law Montgomery aka "Monty". The man was loathed by so many high ranking officials in all of the allies militaries, not to mention many of his own military officials. Monty was so arrogant & self righteous that it cost many, many lives both his own countrymen and the countless lost lives of Britain's allies. I always found it interesting that when doing research throughout the decades concerning the war and Monty's part in it, what one learns from the US and England in many cases is quite different when you compare those to the stories told by the other allies to include Germany. England needed a hero badly during and right after WWII and because of a personal favor from "Ike" to Churchill, Monty became Britain's hero rather than being disgraced and ruined by being fired for his arrogance & incompetence like "Ike" wanted. I always said from my college days (late 70'/early 80') that if I ever got the chance to visit Europe and see England, I would go straight to Binstead to piss on Monty's grave and I finally got to make my mark in 2002. England lost that war and if not for the combined efforts of the allies, Brits would be speaking "Deutsch" to this very day and they need to remember that!

+Texas Hi-Railer ‘It's always irritated me when all of these venues have either excluded or covered up all the failed missions, battles and/or campaigns of Bernard Law Montgomery aka "Monty". ‘ Your words.What failed missions, battles / campaigns? ‘Monty was so arrogant & self righteous that it cost many, many lives both his own countrymen and the countless lost lives of Britain's allies.’ Your words. And yet Montgomery had the lowest casualty rates of any senior allied commander. As I understand the most comparable US senior commander for keeping casualties under control was MacArthur in the Far East. 18tangles may well be able to correct me on this. ‘England needed a hero badly during and right after WWII’ Your words.Wrong, its England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales (The United Kingdom). Montgomery happened to be the man in charge when the big victories started happening and as a consequence he received an amount attention. The whole thrust of British wartime propaganda and reporting of the war was to emphasise the collective effort and the role of the ordinary men and women in winning the war rather than politicians, generals etc. This emphasisis easy to discern in the many feature films produced during this this period. ‘The Foreman Went to France’, ‘Went the Day Well’ and ‘Millions Like Us’ are just three of many such films. As well as this, press reporting and government publications also looked to emphasise the collective effort. For example, the official history of the Battle of Britain published in 1941 did not even mention the head of Fighter Command: Air Chief Marshal Hugh Dowding. End of. ‘and because of a personal favor from "Ike" to Churchill, Monty becameBritain's hero rather than being disgraced and ruined by being fired for his arrogance & incompetence like "Ike" wanted.’ Your words. Eisenhower never had the authority to sack Montgomery. Montgomery reported to his superiors in Britain and any attempt to have Montgomery dismissed would have had to have been in the form of a request to those authorities. In any case, what grounds were there for such a request? Montgomery had planned and led the land battle in France in 1944 which ended ahead of schedule and with fewer than expected casualties. By the time of Market Garden Eisenhower had become land forces commander and thus was directly responsible for the decision to launch that operation. After that time, Eisenhower quickly turned to Montgomery for help during the Battle of the Bulge panic and Montgomery launched the text book crossing of the Rhine by British, Canadian and US forces in the last stages of the war. ‘England lost that war and if not for the combined efforts of the allies, Brits would be speaking "Deutsch" to this very day and they need to remember that!’ Your words.So when and how was Germany going to invade and enforce the German language on Britain? ‘I always said from my college days (late 70'/early 80') that if I ever got the chance to visit Europe and see England, I would go straight to Binstead to piss on Monty's grave and I finally got to make my mark in 2002.’ Your words. I will leave you to your ignorance on this one. Let me know if I have missed anything.

The absolute slaughter in the final throws of the third reich was horrific to say the least. The clock began ticking down on Hitler and his armies the second his sappers crossed into Soviet held territory to start Operation Barbarossa.

No. I personally despise the Soviet Union for personal reasons being Polish. However, there is no way that Allies would have had the success without the Soviet Union. Credit must be given where it is due. Without Stalin , USSR would have fallen apart, without USSR , the USA/UK would have to face Germany and Japan. Soviet Union's mass assault doctrine which threw Soviet soldiers at the Germans in a sense, over-ran the limited supplies and manpower in the Eastern Front.

Also in Caen what is called the ride of death saw Monty get 200 Churchill tanks and it's crew destroyed in a fatal mistake. Monty was very cautious at Caen which I believe caused the mishaps. Even in Sicily Monty was moving slow. But to be fair the UK did not have the manpower to throw around like the US did so many attribute his hesitancy to lack of manpower. In the end I believe Monty was a capable commander with flaws.....

Phillip IV By the time of Market Garden Eisenhower was both Supreme Commander and Land Forces Commander. He bore the ultimate responsibility for the operation. He dithered for a fatal week week before giving the go-ahead. Given the opportunities that Market Garden presented, Eisenhower, Montgomery and Bradley all said yes to the operation. Caen was a D-Day target, not a requirement. Other D-Day targets that were not reached were: Carentan, Saint-Lo, the Omaha Utah link up and the Omaha Gold link up. As Land Forces Commander, Montgomery delivered victory in France ahead of the scheduled completion date (D+90) and with 22% fewer than expected casualties. When was the 'ride of death' of '200 Churchill tanks and it's crew destroyed' recorded? I have never heard of it. Nor has my father - who was on Churchill tanks in Caen. As for Sicily, as in Normandy, the bulk of German Forces were tied down by British forces. The only person who played up was the single army commander Patton who was clearly seeking opportunities for personal glory.
