In December 1940, the regiment was affiliated to the 5th SS Division "Wiking" (later 5th SS Panzer Division "Wiking"). The regiment initially consisted of men from Flanders - but some Dutchmen also served. The majority came from Flanders ...

My in-law lived in Waddinxveen/Gouda at the beginning of the war. One of his friends, who was seventeen at the time, joined the SS. Why ? He thought the uniforms looked cool, and they were sure to get good food. He ran into him again after the war, he was a POW. Apparently he was released after one year.

Lessons were learnt from the first World War and the second World War, a solders life is not to ask if he is on the right side he is there fighting for his loved ones at home, its time that we have a remembrance day to all the worlds war dead, so that we learn that nothing is gained by war only suffering and death but we will never learn this lesson.

German dog tags are not as you might expect. They include regiment names and identification numbers, but I don’t think they had the soldiers names on them. Also, they were meant to be broken in half - one half stays with the body, the other goes to the death registrar. Whole dog tags can be good indicators the soldier was killed and left behind, there was no opportunity to snap off the half to give to the graves registry.

After finding these bodies what they do? Do they disarm the explosives and bury everything again? How often can you identify a body from its dogtag? Thank guys for putting these compilations from other channels, I always go to their channel to give them views!

Hardly wasted. These men here paid the ultimate price in this never spoken of aspect of World War II. Never spoken of, but immensely important!! It always seems to spark argument and debate, unfortunately we will never get an answer… BUT; If the forces of Germany & the volunteers from other European countries, (Like the ones excavated in this video, Waffen SS WESTLAND, & others) But if the 3rd Reich had NOT attacked to the east, had NOT hit the Communist Soviet Union as hard & fast as they did in the 1st year of operation Barbarosa, I dread to see what Europe would look like today… completely unrecognizable in my opinion. Ultimately, I believe Stalin wanted all of Europe for himself, (which he kept MUCH of it after the war anyway…Without arguments/disagreements from the west). It’s evident, starting in 1937 the soviet Union ramped up their arms production in anticipation for the day they spread their communist beliefs West. The Germans knew that, and simply “beat him to the punch” while the Soviets were still weak from the “takeover”. Part of gaining full control in Russia, the jewishh bolsheviks used tactics that were inhumanly brutal and swift. Quick and Factory-like assassinations of thousands officers, and local government officials. All leadership personnel, from top to bottom, in every military branch, large cities, small towns, and everywhere in between, military officers, doctors, lawyers, and ALL intellectuals/people of intelligence, in society were systematically eliminated. The bolshevik way was hands tied behind the back, single shot through the base of the spine into the back of the head. Body falls forward into a pre-dug trench. (See the massacre at the KATYN FORREST, 22,000+ Polish executed by the Soviet Union in May 1940) But with a poorly lead military, Stalin was simply buying time. He lacked of course talented officers, but also lacked modern arms/weaponry, modern planes, and many other essential pieces needed for divers in war. Eventually, once he was ready, I believe he would’ve struck east AFTER Germany, Poland, France, England, Holland, Belgium, Norway, Finland, etc. had feet in the shit out of each other up + down left & right leaving it’s citizens + economies tired & “War weary“. It would’ve been easy for him at that point. I estimate ALL of Europe, (other than England/Ireland/Scotland, protected by water) would have been under Soviet/Communist/Bolshevik rule. All of Europe. All under Stalin’s rule if operation Barbarosa had NOT happened.
