    The Germans certainly won the war in terms of awesomeness, the design in everything they did is as imposing as it is eye wateringly beautiful.

    Koenig Tiger looking at a sherman: "You look tasty."

    As an American kid growing up watching WW2 documentaries I think the germans had the cooler toys. MG-42, Tiger II, German Half tracks, a car that goes in the water Schwimmwagen. Kettenkrad HK 101 are my favorites. Plus the german helmet Stahlhelm ('steel helmet ) 😁

    Le Halftrack Htm16 (4 mitrailleuses de dca) était encore en service dans mon régiment en 1984... Un officier américain de passage était impressionné par le soin porté à nos anciens véhicules destinés à la "décoration" de la caserne... il a fallu lui avouer qu'il s'agissait de notre couverture anti aérienne ...

    The Germans had a saying.The Panzer tank was as good as 10 Sherman’s but a 11th Sherman would always show up

    This is the equivalent of taking your construction toys out and rolling them around in the mud for all the other kids to see

    One of three mk IV tanks ever built, and the second largest tank to be produced. Magnificent beast.

    Great video. Interesting to see, and to keep in our minds the horrors of warfare that still go on today . We must remember our past to move forward to a world of peace.😊

    These videos are always GREAT to see. Watching these vehicles still running is wonderful considering their age and history. HOWEVER, I find it disappointing we NEVER get to see any turret traversing. Just driving around and around. Do these turrets still rotate or not? Maybe show one tank taking aim at another, or just lining up on a simulated target. Seeing them drive around and around and around, when we know they did so much more...AT least show a turret move.

    The beautiful thing about these old olive drab and gray and brown and blue and chrome and grayish green hunks of steel and Iron and aluminum etc. is that they will be telling the stories of the men who operated them at crucial points in history long after those men are no longer able to tell those stories themselves.
