I watch a HELL OF A LOT of WWII documentaries, and this is perhaps one of the best I have ever seen. Understanding the slow death march of WWII is extremely well portrayed in this exquisite documentary. Hats off to the producers !!!!

There's tons of good ones on KZread luckily, ever seen , WW2 the price of empire? It's good and has about 10 episodes I believe

Documentare interesante urmăresc tot ce ține de război istorie din toate timpurile.

Another great program. Thank you

“Everyone knows that we were winning great victory after victory. But no one questioned why those victories were getting closer and closer to home”

I've watched a ton of documentaries. (You can see that my MilHistory playlist is huge!) I have to say, the granularity of what you've produced here is ... truly impressive. good work done well ... congrats!

Loving the WW2 videos! Great work!

I will make you a great nation.I will bless those that bless you and curse those that curse you.Now Germany looks like a middle eastern country.God is angry!Karma!

It was a great historical coverage

War brings out the inhumanity of man to man. It is something that we should not experience.

Ok, it is great you have put these simpler 'storyline based' docos out for people who are just learning about this horror. Extra kudos for getting it through copyright & putting it on a crime channel, you never know 'til you try! =) Negatives: It is an ABC rehash of what have become WW2 memes. Relatively unimportant stuff in 1945 gets lots of time. But hugely important decision makers, not known to US audiences, don't get a mention, just the 'usual subjects'. I'm being over-critical, HGW is my subject, thanks for posting. _[ps: your "Last Battles" thumbnail is missing an "s" in "Battles".]_

Ah, yeah, it is. The largest man-made event and deadliest conflict in human history. It was also the largest creation of wealth in human history. For the Americans, anyways. Britain just finished paying her back in 2015 for lend lease.

Should have been a spoiler alert. They give away who wins and totally ruined the surprise for me.

LMAO. You're joking right? This event shaped just about everything in your life.

Pinched between superior forces the Germans were ground down into powder.

Part 2

The three cities that suffered firestorms: Hamburg (~45k dead), Dresden (~25k dead) and Tokyo (~100k dead) killed more than the combined nuclear bombs.

It’s John Mulaney! 24:57

Trying to convince the guys who brought the ball how this game is going to be played? Nice try, Churchill.

The historian who said the Germans lost half a million troops and kept fighting. Germany was a country especially east Prussia joining the military was the most honorable thing a young man could do

I have always wondered why did Germans never use the V1 and V2 as a tactical weapon other than firing a few at the bridge at Ramada when it fell into US hands. Seems like a misdirection of a long-range resource that they should have deployed in a more advantageous manner. And it is kind of puzzling that the US air fleets that were bombing Japan, was under strict orders not to drop anything within 3 mi of the Royal Palace where the Japanese Prince reside at, but I'm not sure if they were actually targeting Hitler's bunker in the center of Berlin. It should have been easy to take out with one of those grand slam Blockbuster bombs.

16:05- 16:11 Prime Minister Winston Churchill has no influence on Eisenhower militaries decisions". That's good enough. I have the greatest respect for our British Bulldog, but Ike knew what he was doing. 18:29-18:35 Tapfer und Treu! - Brave and Loyal. 19:10-19:15 Nun erst recht: Kampf bis zum Sieg! Now more than ever: fight to victory! Mit dem Fuher zum Sieg! - With the Fuher to victory! Unerschutterlich Kampfentschlossen Siegsgewiss! - Fiercely determined to win!

Mostly focused on the bickering slow moving Brits and Americans. Canadians not covered. Those 6 million fully equipped pesky Soviets less than 50 miles from Berlin are mostly not given credit? This is a one sided documentary and overall quite poorly done.

Such guilty emotions and it cont to this very day, Germany has gifted Israel twei nuclear submarines and continues pay financial reparations to this day and I want won’t get into the appalling force societal destruction that has been forcedb upon them another European country’s under the scandalous guise of the Syrian civil war. God bless Poland and Hungary.

fascists and Bolsheviks ( and Poland was also a fascist during those time )

The idea that the British were fighting for freedom whereas they were maintaining brutal control over India and vast parts of Africa and massacring millions there is beyond bizarre.

Both were true, the two aren’t inseparable. Britain and the rest of the west can be brutalizing Africa and Asia while also being the defenders of democratic government in the war against fascist expansionism. You can see this contrast historically with any country’s foreign and domestic policies. Britain had the freest system of government in the world in the 18th century, and yet it was participating in the global conquest. America was the freest and most advanced country in the world in the mid-20th century, and yet it was simultaneously annihilating Indochina. GK Chesterton held a similar philosophy regarding Britain and Ireland. He supported Britain’s efforts in WWI against Germany, while also supporting Ireland’s war for independence from Britain. Why? Because Britain were the good guys in the war against Germany but the bad guys in their repression of Ireland.

Didn’t know that was #mood from the pubbing Tommies. Lol Allie’s goal for the last 8 months wasnt to defeat Germany. It was defeat C word and create as much of a buffer zone from what we’ll let Stallin have and us. If in reference to that war campaign then I’d agree w/ my pubbin Tom’s that THEY did win the war Best believe Tommy and em Yankees wanted SU ability to scale and launch offensives to be depleted as much as possible upon reaching Germany. Keeping that C word stuff as far away as possible. Smiling to his face w/ Fat man and Little Boy behind our back waiting for him to try something funny

It wasn't just the last 100 days in which the Soviets made the most significant contribution of the allies. Britain's fight for the first year was of the highest order but after that the British and soon after American efforts vs Germany were supplementary to what the Soviets endured and accomplished.

@@justinkauffman731 think some shoulda told the Germans that’s lol. They had some 140 divisions deployed on the Eastern Front and never broke more than 50 divisions deployed on the Western front at one time. That includes their Italian and Finnish divisions and some others I’m sure. Also like the divisions faced at the Normandy landings, many of the unfit or or the lowest quality soldiers were who made up the Western divisions aside from your occasional SS divisions. Mostly practicality reasons. In order to attack from the West you’d have to come from the sea which clearly isn’t near as easy or as quick as walking through the nice flat regions of the East. It was only a handful of German divisions that slaughtered the Allie’s in Sicily

Churchill was an overgrown public schoolboy then goes on to say he had... (im paraphrasing here) great satisfaction come over his face when he pissed into Germany im asking myself is that supposed to be some sort of indictment on public school educated kids dont get me wrong the public schools in america today are broken but i came out of public school and think im doing fine but it just seemed to me he had some sorta problem with public school educated kids he was probably a prep school kid or private school kid and probably went to the best college and so it almost seems as if hes looking down his ivy league school nose at everyone else who couldnt afford the schools his parents could
