    You guys might be interested in the story of Barney hinze he was a Australian soldier from ww1 nicknamed the souvenir king apart from taking souvenirs from Germans after fighting them every thing from pianos to helmets and cash etc . He was well-known for getting up to so much trouble behind the lines that when in the front lines his commander used to send him on one man patrols to terrorise the Germans usually with two sandbags full of bombs a bayonet and a Lewis machine gun. After one little fight he was seen on top of a German pillbox dancing stopping every now and then to throw grenades into the pillbox. He came back with over 60 prisoners and a heap of captured German gear. He was recommended for some bravery medals but due to his behaviour out of the lines he never received them. Had a habit of getting into trouble. 45th battalion AIF.

    When the paperwork caught up to him, he was in the European headquarters. He never had to return stateside, they prosecuted his court martial in Europe. After signing the documents, he rejoined without leaving the building. By the time he left, he had been commissioned as an officer. For anyone else who abandoned the National Guard, Army Air Corps, and Canadian military before joining the regular Army, he would have been shipped back stateside to endure Fort Leavenworth until the duration or his multiple sentences were served. For him, they accepted him as an officer and released him in on America's enemies.

    Two main things came out of this for me. 1. Anyone who has served in the military wouldn't be surprised by the army firing him. Then, re employing him straight away. That's the stupidity of the military. 2. Some people in this world are born to be warriors . Loved it. Two thumbs up for me.

    Lewis Millet, Dan Daly, Virginia Hall, Cassius Marcellus Clay, William Whittemore... These are all names that I should have learned about in highschool, but didn't until now when I'm in my late 30s. But one thing is for damn sure, my kids will get to learn about them at a much younger age than I did. Love that y'all appreciate the Fat Electrician's history lessons as much as I do and I hope y'all keep covering him. I watch on his channel as well, but I like watching other people's reactions so I also watch his videos here.

    These people never came up but my grandfather once had my brother and I do a project on a historic figure. My brother was like 7 at most, so he had John Adams. I was like 11, and I had Dr. Edward Jenner, the creator of one of the earliest vaccine precursors.

    I was an Army Recruiter for 3 years from 96-99 in Spartanburg, SC. The Medal of Honor Society was holding its annual members gathering of all the living recipients that could attend. I was Col Millet’s military escort for a couple days. Took him to my High School where he gave a speech that resulted in 2 kids joining the Army after hearing him. I remember him saying, somewhere between WW2 and Korea he also wound up in the Philippines teaching English. At that time he was also in possession of Audie Murphy’s Medal of Honor (I got to hold it) and was responsible for letting the public know about him as well. An outstanding gentleman. The dinner held for them in Spartanburg was black tie, Adrian Kronour (Good Morning Vietnam) was the Master of Ceremonies and Gen (Ret) Westmoreland was guest of honor.

    Fun fact : Erwin Romell once went to the shendoah valley and checked into a hotel when asked what brings you so far from home he replyed I'm here to study your Stonewall Jackson. This was before ww2 started. Insane but true he studied a civil war general to learn tactics.

    I've said it a few times and just like Dan said in the intro, "Fix bayonets!!" is possibly the scariest command to overhear, and you might just be close enough to have heard it. It means you've got roughly 40~ish seconds to be GONE! Unless you like having your ribs spread and heart punctured. Because they ARE coming NOW! Bayonets don't care that you've been shooting from behind cover, because bayonets come attached with a soldier that has now climbed over/gone around that cover and is running at you with the pointy end.

    Would love to see @the fat electrician do a story on the 761st tank battalion, better known as the Black Panthers. Shortly after landing in Normandy in October 1944, they would endure 183 straight days of combat and would liberate 30 towns during their push to Germany.

    This one made me laugh because I took fashion design as an after school elective my junior year of high school, told my parents it was band class to avoid the hassles there. Because that moustache isn't gonna sit on itself. :D

    People think Americans think too highly of our country and our military. This is where that belief started, and we need to keep these stories alive and pass them down. There's a reason we're patriotic. I'm generally on the Left of the political spectrum, but we all need to be aware of the sacrifices that brought us Democracy and maintained it. Too many people are ready to let all that effort be in vain. Democracy matters now and forever and we need to cherish and defend it from enemies foreign and domestic, which are becoming indistinguishable.

    My father was a USNCB senior chief petty officer between 1951 and 1971. He got in during the Korean War and got out during Viet Nam. Now, of course he didn't start as a Senior Chief, he worked his way up within the first eight, or so, years. He went to Viet Nam twice and Antarctica 6-7 times. His crew build a lot of the bases that the newer generations of military and scientists enjoy today. The reason he got his guys to be such a good group, is because he made friends with them all, up to and including drinking with them. He and his men would have no problems with getting into trouble when drinking. Well, the military brass got tired of their shenanigans and he got busted of pay, but not rank a few times. That was the military's way of dealing with trouble makers. By the way, the USNCB is the United States Navy Construction Battalion. They usually followed behind the Marines, build air strips and barracks, which the Army would use in a few hours when they showed up.
