My great grandfather was a bomber pilot, shot down during the invasion of France, he survived and was captured by the Germans. Sent to a Stelag and lived through the ordeal, he never talked about the war or his experiences directly, but he was writing a book before he died about his entire life and the lives of his comrades. I got to read his first draft of the book about 5 months before he passed. It’s unfathomable the things that happened to him, and the things he witnessed. Every time I ever hear anything about ww2 I think of brave, strong individuals like him who gave all of us our freedom all across the world.

The rapid modernization and industrialization through WW2 is crazy and very hard to wrap my head around. At the beginning of the war, armies consisted of WW1 and even Prussian era technology (especially france) and towards the end, you can see technologies common even in the 70’s. 🤯

It’s been almost 6 years since this video, but I just want to congratulate Oversimplified on the insane quality of his videos. While he definitely does what he sets out to do (very oversimplifies the topics), it is still clear to me that he is very knowledgeable on what he talks about. In the past few years I’ve started reading a lot more than I used to, and I just discovered from my current book that the whole “Japan doesn’t want to miss the victory bus” was an actual slogan adopted by Japanese commanders after Hitler’s victories in Europe. Just prior to his conquering of France, Japanese high command was seriously considering diminishing their presence in china, but German victory completely changed their mindset, leading to their eventual offensives. A small detail that I always remembered from this video, so it’s very cool to me that you based it off of something very real, and goes to show how knowledgeable you really are Oversimplified. Keep up the good work!

I'm Romanian. We (were forced to) enter the war in German's side: my grandpa's older brother fought on the Eastern front. Before reaching Stalingrad, he was shot in the leg and had to recover in hospital. Extremely lucky for him. Most of his friends died during the battle of Stalingrad. In 1944, as the Russians pushed back the front, our military dictatorship collapsed and Ro had to change sides (in the meantime we were bombed by both sides for a while). Now my grandpa came of age. He fought on the Allied side through Hungary an well into Czechoslovakia. Then Ro troups were sent home without being recognized for their change of heart. All in all, both grandpa and his older brother survived after having fought on completely different fronts and sides. (uncle +1989, grandpa+ 2004). I loved my grandpa's war stories (always avoided telling me the gruesome stuff only a few funny bits). My lifelong regret is not asking him more... Bless him.

1. The USSR fought with 5 armies (Germany, Italy, Hungary, Romania and Finland) 2. Greece resisted for a long time only because at first it was opposed by an Italian army that was weak relative to the Wehrmacht, but upon the arrival of German troops, despite the mobilization that the blitzkrieg was trying to limit, it was still captured. 3. Greece was helped by Great Britain and its dominions. 4. Two months clearly saved the USSR from defeat in an officially undeclared war, because during this time Germany could have been better prepared for it. 5. To put on a par the resistance of the USSR with 26.6 million victims and the resistance of Greece with 435 thousand victims and write that the USSR won only thanks to Greece is clearly adequate and fair. 👍

The mistake of the germans was to give them the chance to surrender.

1: my great grandfather did recon photography for the Allies. He helped liberate one of the concentration camps but never talked about it to anyone but his wife. 2: with where the US flag was on Canada, it sometimes feels more accurate than the Canadian flag. 3: before the fix on the map, only Newfies were Canadian. **correction** Newfoundland and Labrador were their own dominion. So, they actually did have a different flag, so I don't know how he made that oops.

It was an error I think. For some reason on the map Labrador is outlined (it may not have joined Canada yet) and I think that's what trough him off.

The original story was when the American commander read the message he muttered “nuts” and then later when he was thinking of what to say, one of his officers said “that remark you made earlier is hard to beat” so that’s what they sent. And then the part that you said happened.

My favourite part was 30 years after the war, a Japanese soldier was found in the forest killing people, not knowing the ASR’s was over. When the villagers asked him to stop, he said he wouldn’t stop unless him superior came to personally dismiss him.
