The animation from 3 years ago compared to this as come very very far! This is honestly my favorite history channel, love you guys! keep it up!

I love how you introduced the character you let the audience build a connection to them, and sometimes they don’t make it! I don’t know why but ever since I was little, I’ve always been drawn to World War II history, European theater. If I had a chance to go back in time, I would definitely fight in the European theater or be a pilot. Aviation comes natural to me. And I’m not even going to exaggerate when I went through Boot Camp and graduated from Paris Island in 2006 two days before Halloween. It was an awesome experience in the crucible was fine AF. There’s just something about having all your gear on. Knowing that at any moment it could all be over. Marine Corps Boot Camp in Paris Island when I went through. They still had a lot of the training tapered around Vietnam era. I don’t know how it is today.. I mean I heard the US Army no longer yells at recruits, they have allegedly a stress card if the drill sergeant tries to yell at somebody or punish them, and the soldier feels stressed. They hold up a card and they don’t have to do anything they get a couple of minutes to their self and proceed. I think it’s revolutionary that the army is going about that route, because we all know in battle your feelings matter ! Lol

I mean, in battle & life your feelings do matter, 100%. If you're angry, tired, depressed, anxious, restless etc, its important to understand how you feel (& hopefully, why) to best address the situation & balance any bias you might have because of your emotional state (e.g. if your depressed, you might feel like throwing your life away needlessly, or if you're angry, you might be so mad you accidentally hit a fellow soldier while shooting angrily). Plus, one of the main problems any modern military faces is recruitment, so making your job less horrible, with a lower chance of depression, suicidality, PTSD & even chronic pain helps not only the soldier, but the country too (inc. less spending on post-deployment healthcare).

It’s absolutely crazy how far we came with how good the animation and how realistic it looks we’ve came a long way

This should be a movie. Except no-one would believe it.

it's an absolute mystery how this man did not posthumously receive the medal of honor.

Because it was kinda pointless to keep on pushing. It would have been more reasonable to pull back from the first ambush and wait until air support and reinforcements arrive. But instead he took a different route which lead to another ambush only this time he pushed through. They did make it in the end but they simply lost too many tanks and soldiers that could have probably been avoided. It seems like they didn't even scout the region beforehand they just went in not knowing what could happen.

There is certain to have been similar episodes on the Eastern Front & even the Pacific those will be harder to find. The East was a bloodbath.

Only one complaint on the animation, the Thompson Submachine Gun that he was using was ejecting what looks like rifle rounds when in reality it'd be spitting out short and thick 45 acp shells

I have always been left speechless by the amazing story telling, but this is the first time I've been shocked by the graphics overhaul, not long ago I had noticed a huge improvement in the graphics which helped aid the story telling with amazing visuals, but on this latest video I am amazed by how cinematic it was to watch while keeping with the traditional video format is quite amazing, I could honestly see yarnhub being paid to produce a documentary series for a streaming service in the years to come similar to WW2 in colour and the likes but in the yarnhub style. Best channel in my opinion to learn war history from

Chills ran down my whole body when he jumped out if the tank and cowboy being referred to as "demon"

There's a reason they are called "The Greatest Generation." These guys were just built different... Also, just a DSC? This man deserves the Medal of Honor. Congress, make it happen.

Never knew this story! Beautiful animation. Keep doing what you do!

In two words, the animation is as ASTOUNDING as the story details are BRILLIANT !! 👍+

I like the little details. And not just the visual details, but the details such as when the tank commander shouts "hiho silver". That's what the lone ranger shouts to his horse. That was released in 1936, and exactly what the commander would be watching back at home. Such an easy thing to skip over, but they added that extra realism. Yarnhub really puts in research and effort.

Wow the animation is incredible and the storytelling is so good, I was sitting on the edge of my chair in awe at every twist of the battle. Thank you for bringing those amazing war stories back to life and sharing them with us, you are doing a great job

The quality of these videos improves by a mile each time and It always seems like they can't get much better and then they always do, astounding!

This is so nice to watch and I just love military history and this is basically a record of events that happened in the military so ya it is awesome

Keep up the good work! I hope the channel will expand the story to another part of the world, such as asia or africa Edit: I just realised they remastered the story, it was fantastic.

A+ production, scripting, narration, effort and theme. Absolutely outstanding production quality.

I would love it if Yarnhub did a video on the Monchy 9 of Newfoundland. 9 men of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment positioned at Monchy-le-Preux during the Battle of Arras in 1917 hid behind shrubbery and defended the town from a German force anywhere from 200 - 300 men strong for 11 hours to prevent a German break through. I think it is a very cool and very underrated battle that sounds like the plot of a movie.

RIP to those who have fallen. Tucker really "singlehandedly" carried the team. And the Sherman at 9:05 😂 good job using the "wiggle tactics". 10/10 🍻

Watching your posts is so much better than 99% of the garbage on TV. I can't wait until your next video. Man this one gave me goosebumps! Tucker is one of the toughest hombres ever. What a man and what balls he had. Epic battle!

You did right by this Cowboy with this animation. Absolutely superb!

Kemble “Cowboy” Tucker was an American captain who served in the 36th Tank Battalion, 8th Armored Division during World War II. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his bravery in leading an assault on enemy positions near Rheinberg, Germany on March 5th, 1945. He was killed in action that same day and buried at the Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial in Margraten

This guy was the very epitome of sheer guts and determination. Right up till he took his final breath.

These Graphics are Amazing. They’re getting better and better from video to video. I love these videos ❤ Never stop doing them.

I just discovered your channel. I just wanted to say I love the story telling and the animation. Moreover, I am glad these stories are being told and that they have a chance to live on. People don't realize what these men did, and they were last of an era where the country was unified in a common goal.

The Panzer IV Tucker's crew mention in 08:00, is a Panzer IV Ausf. H, noticeable by add-on steel plates on the tank turret's cheek and backside. In ww2 though, especially in chaotic moments, the allies often mistook the Panzer IV Ausf. H silhouette as a Tiger I. So, kudos for Tucker's tank crew to be able to correctly identify the tank correctly in the midst of chaos of the ambush

I knew a veteran of "The Thundering Herd: in the ordnance and maintenance battalion who vividly recalls this ambush on his unit, he placed the blame on a hotheaded officer in the staff who ordered these tanks to move forwards in a rush to reach the Rhein. He described several 88's and other caliber anti-tank guns engaging their tanks from a distance, and how the road was too marshy on either side of the road to get of the road, so the wrecks of other tanks prevented much movement.. The tanks advanced far enough ahead of their pinned down infantry to be engaged by enemy infantry from both ditches on either side of the road with panzerfausts and panzerschrecks. Part of his job was recovering these wrecked vehicles, which he never went into detail about. Rest in peace Richard.

Animation keeps getting better and better! Requesting a story on Heinrich Severloh.

You could make the footage showed in museum movie rooms explaining the displays. It is SO GOOD.

You just keep getting better!

The quality of yarn hub videos has improved so much. Well done!

Another masterpeice! I have been waitng all week even though I have been away from a device

Ive been wondering about the perspective of the 2 shermans that survived a full night like its Fury (2015) all over its atmosphere during that fight. Those guys were safe thanks to the Cowboy that put fear onto the infantrymen. Pretty much holding them back from getting too close, unknowingly

"yeehaw!" *-he nonchalantly shouts*

The final tally of the battle for Rheinberg. CCB men of the 8th Armored accomplished their mission, but the defense put up by the Germans in an attempt to hold open an escape route to Wesel was nothing less than outstanding. The 49th AIB suffered 68 casualties, while the 36th had 131 either wounded or killed in action. From the German ranks, 512 prisoners were taken and 350 killed. The 36th Tank Battalion lost a total of 41 tanks. Company B had lost all but six tanks. Company A fared somewhat better, but a final count showed 11 of its tanks knocked out. Company D, which had been ordered to attack from the southwest, left 17 of its 18 tanks along the road and the remaining tank had to be withdrawn.

unbelievable! once again you nailed it!

Such a quality and dedication is appearent, the creator is criticly underrated!

It really is a fascinating microcosm of the war on the western front in a way - all those clever tactics and ingenious defences, and the Americans just keep pushing until they break anyway. Because they can, and so they will.

They pushed even that the odds were against them, that's courage and again amazing work yarnhub keep up the good work.

Tucker: **One of his arms are taken out** Also Tucker: *"Youve yeed your last haw brother"*

This is how wars should be fought, where one side does not have overwhelming advantage over the other.

1:52 Bro takes so much ammunition to kill 1 person

The animation has gotten so realistic!

Amazing story this channel deserves a like and comment on everything they post so even more can see the videos

8:12 at the time this was an amazing feat, simply because the shermans we're the only tanks in service to have a vertical stabilizer meaning they could move and shoot!

These animations and textures are amazing
