    Very nice, but if you compare the numbers in the video to modern data they are totally off, wonder if is really a evaluation or a propaganda movie

    The British and Commonwealth units as well as those early partisan units that could be armed did fight on Crete tbh. Thanks to code breaking the Allies knew where and when to deploy their ships and men where they could fight with best effect. The Royal Navy broke up the Italian portion of the (sea) invasion while the German Falschirmjaeger took very heavy losses in securing the airfields so that the 5th Mountain Div, with their heavy weapons could in be could flown in only after the German Paratroopers had secured the two main airfields, Meleme and Heraklion. It was After that the ability to secure the rest of the island followed in quick order as the Germans repaired and utilized the captured airfield for their own uses.

    Thought provoking discussion about (1) the quality of Allied Intelligence collection about the German planning and execution of Operation MERCURY; and, (2) what sources of information would have afforded such a degree of insight, and which the Allies would have been willing to use for such a purpose, if the use might risk compromise of the source.

    The disconnect between the subject matter of some of these clips with what is actually happening in the war at that time is kind of absurd. I get that it's propaganda, but it's kind of like that picture of a dog sitting at a table in a room that's on fire saying, "This if fine."

    Never knew the fuller historical backdrop of the Warsaw uprising and how that was considered as the start of the Cold War. Fascinating. Also this question...what was the mass rally firing into buildings and the crowd looking for shelter after the DeGaulle footage ?....was that in France and what is the backstory? And finally....on a lighter note....when we see the very last frames of the ceramic factory....why didn't the row of cups fall off when the carrying "rack" was tipped so severely before the person entered the space between the storage racks?

    GREAT STUFF! I recently visited Remargen and I was fascinated to compare the town then with now. At least the twin towers at the bridge end are still there and the topography can still be recognised. The US Sappers seem to have done a good job in replacing the collapsed bridge with the temporary replacement. These reports do an excellent job in transporting one back into those critical days gone by!
