Bazooka Charlie

Фильм және анимация

Bazooka Charlie, the brave young Major Charles Carpenter who attached bazookas to his L-4 Grasshopper. Fed up with seeing German tanks from the air and not being able to do anything, Charles fitted out his Grasshopper spotter plane with a bazooka upgrade.

    I am Major Charles Carpenter's daughter and you have done a beautiful job of depicting my Dad and his little Cub plane, Rosie. He actually looked like your animation! Here is one thing to add to the story of the Battle of Arracourt as described in a newspaper clipping from the time: there was an American support crew trapped under a bridge, and my Dad's attacks forced the remaining German tanks to retreat, enabling the trapped crew to escape injury and capture. While restoring the plane, we found two bullet holes in the frame from one of his many exploits. The plane is now completed, flight ready, and will be at the Collings Heritage Museum in Hudson, MA. Next summer Rosie will be presented at the EAA Air Venture in Oshkosh, WI.

    Hi Carol, thanks so very much for taking the time to comment on our video and the extra information on the story. To do a video of a legend like your father is always daunting and so we're absolutely thrilled that you have watched and liked our work. To have Major Charles' daughter tell us we got it right is a massive boost to the team. Thank You !

    My uncle Pete was a tank commander under General Patton during Operation Torch. He too was awarded the Silver Star. My cousin showed it to me many years ago. The story goes, the Germans and French Vichy were approaching with tanks toward a much smaller group of American troops behind his tank. There were two or three other tanks with him at the time behind a small ridge in North Africa. The Germans didn't know there were only four tanks behind the ridge. My uncle Pete and his crew drove their tanks to the top of the ridge and took their shots. Then they backed off behind the ridge and repositioned their tanks a little further down the line behind the ridge. They popped up again on the hill again taking more shots. They outwitted the Germans into thinking they had many more tanks than just a few. He and his crew of tankers helped save a lot of lives behind the line that day. Miss you Uncle Pete. Those guys really were The Greatest Generation.

    @@xzqzq Typically, tanks of that era had lighter armor on top of the turret, since the real threat was perceived to come from ground action - troops with bazookas would be at the same level, small arms like rifles wouldn't matter at all. So part of the genius of Major Carpenter was in SEEING this deficiency and capitalizing on it. Tossing a grenade on top would do something similar, but the grenade would roll off the turret before exploding. So the bazooka rockets would be perfect, as would a mortar IF you could reliably hit the tank from the top. Now, we have TOW missiles and such, to attempt to do the same from above by allowing the shooter to also be the "pilot" and guide the missile to not only hit the tank, but choose WHERE ON THE TANK TO HIT IT!

    You can now see Major Charles Carpenter's Rosie on special event days at the American Heritage Museum in Hudson Massachusetts. My boys watch your channel all the time and they were so excited when we went to the American Heritage Museum WW1 event and saw Rosie. We didn't know that she was there. So when we saw her the boys got very excited and started to tell everyone, that was there looking at her, about her. I just want to say thank you to Yarnhub for make his videos and to all the people involved in restoring and keeping our history alive and to the those who served and their families.

    Are you sure the elder generation does not belittle and mock the younger for not having made the same sacrifices, thus deeming then lazy, spoiled and good for nothing? Because that's the tone I get from people alive during this era, that young people are their own problem. Take no heed to the circumstances having vastly changed in 60 years, the elder is always better and instead of trying to help the younger generation we are belittled and mocked for our perceived brattiness. No amount of hard work will ever change that in their eyes, just because we have cell phones in our pockets. Doesn't matter if we work full time jobs, pay our taxes and vote, we still must be lazy.

I'm surprised his actions merited only a Silver Star TBH, I was expecting him to be a medal of honour recipient. How wonderful to hear he lived far longer than was expected, hopefully some of his courage and determination rubbed off on his students and it's also amazing to hear that the aircraft still exists and is again airworthy. Thanks for a brilliant animation on an incredible individual.

    @cristopher wong less problems? It was so overweight that drivers were instructed to not use neural steering because it would usualy lead to the transmission breaking. This is only one of countless problems like: - Turret is too heavy to rotate on a slope - Still no periscope for the gunner - Still no commanders overwrite (although I have to say that most WW2 tanks except for the M4 Sherman didnt have that feature) - By 1944 german armor quality was effektively wet toilet paper glued together. The armor would shatter after a couple of hits - Ovet 10 tons heavyer then the Tiger 1 (which was already overweight) while just having a slightly better engine leading to a even worse horsepower/ton ratio - Still no commander opperated radio - Very difficult and expensive to produce - No seperate engine for the turret meaning that in order to rotate the turret the engine had to be running and in order to have good turret rotation speed the engine had to be running at max RPM. Not only is this extremely fuel inefficient but it also leads to engine overstressing leading to more breakdowns and it makes ambushing completely impossible because every recon unit in the area can see and hear the running engine from a few kilometers away.

    The panther had a few problems that you did not seem to know about: By 1944 when the allies invades normandy german factorys were bombed to bits leading to a decrease in german armor quality. Since most tiger 1s were build before that they did not have that problem but the armor on the panther would shatter frequently even after just a couple of HE hits: external-preview.redd.it/sdEXpg78H46ngTHLP5ZY2JJR7s1afG39r1PO0mgy7oU.jpg?auto=webp&s=dffa1dc03e31290a5205567a72e032f8dd7d6df3 i.redd.it/e6z2le1a51x41.jpg worldoftanks.com/dcont/fb/imagesforarticles/chieftains_hatch/pantherscare1/isignypthr.jpg?MEDIA_PREFIX=/dcont/fb/ Also the transmission was still horrible leading to breakdowns every ~150km of driving and the turret rotation speed was reduced on the later moddels because the germans wanted to increase production so they left out the turret motor.

    Just seen this plane a couple of months ago, it’s still in the American heritage museum. Great looking plane after that restoration

    The animation is getting better and better, though I think the only thing to focus on now is making the soldiers/characters more bulky, they look too bare or "naked" without webbing and equipment on them.

    honestly when i watch these videos i kinda get the feeling im literally in the scene. this isnt often i get such a feeling but they feel quite great as its almost alive. great video. and honestly you should try working with mark felton as both of you could do some serious history lessons to the world.
