This is so abunch of one sided bullshit... Germans out maned out guned and surrounded fought hard to help get the men of the 7th army out of harms way and did for the most part . Not for hitler or the nazi party but for them and their familys...
Poland achieved the best with what she had. A brave, rescourceful & proud people! Krauts were ruthless hyenas- only flexing muscle when it was known the filthy cowards couldn't be bought to account for the satanic barbarism perpetrated!! The author has seen (although God only knows how such atrocities affected the people witnesses!) the cruelty inflicted on the civilian population. Poles be proud, you as a people proved courage is bred !!
@Buggerlugz000 hurrppderrppaaduuppapaadduuuuuuuuu, krautz iz lamhez!
The Polish fought along side the British, who exterminated 30 million Indians in India and the Americans, who exterminated 12-13 million Native-Americans...... DEERHRHHHHRPPPP!!!!!!!
I know. Maybe same wouldn't have wanted to. Victory parades are for those who have never been defeated. My father was in three major battles, and got defeated in all three. He never attended Victory/Remembrance Day parades. His mates were all dead. So was his only brother. The English can never understand this. The Poles can.
hz. Both Canadians and Poles were important. This is a great Polish victory, as was Cassino. But lets not forget - Poles weren't the only ones. I find a problem with this. Poles want to claim all the credit. This is not correct. Often these things are team efforts. Give credit to others, and they will rightly recognize you too. And the Poles certainly deserve credit.
poles are upset that history books/documentaries are showing untruthful information. in american school books there is still reference to polish cavalry charge against tanks. kids are still learning this today. as an example this could not be further from the truth.
Swann: So the Poles want to take some credit.......what's the problem with that. After all, the Americans and the British exaggerate their importance and they write the history books on how they defeated Nazi Germany. Not much is mentioned about the contribution of the Soviets in the defeat of Germany.
SillyGrandpa. You are quite right, of course. I think the Poles should be mentioned more. They were involved in a lot of key battles, and had quite a lot of luck too, which is always important in battle. The Poles played a key part in the Italian, Desert, French and Dutch theaters. They also fought in the Battle of Britain. Some were not so lucky, like the poor Australians who had to fight the Germans going backwards, and then ended up getting caught in Singapore.
if i remember this correct the soviets destroyed about 85-90 % on the Nazi Wermacht, but yeah, they tend to show them as the ultimate victors...
PS: this says not a single word that poles closed the gap at falese and held it for 4 days, repelling all german attepnts to break thru, shame for the movie makers.
poland never caved in. england/france forced poles from full mobilization in 1939. on the 17th september german offensive was over-stretched. loses in tanks and aircraft were significant reaching 50%. the front was stabilizing. germans were demoralized. just as it was happening russians invaded from the east without declaration of war. learn your history please. poland - germany struggle has been going on for 1000 years. germany is yet to win once on their own.
poles were the ace pilots defending england in battle of Britain. their kill ratio was 5 times higher then that of any other nation involved. yet the famous battle monument does not have ONE polish name on it, there is a reason behind that. but they did include handful of Canadians/ Australians/ New Zealanders...?
luvpump: The Poles were fighting against overwhelming odds. They were outnumbered by the Germans in both military men and also in arms, planes, tanks, etc. Not only that but they were stabbed in the east by the Soviets sixteen days later. If I remember correctly, no one else was attacked this way in Europe. The real shame is that neither France nor Britain came to Poland's aid. The scenario was to have been Britain and France attacking Germany in the west and thereby giving relief to the Poles.
@hzj79 That's a poor argument. How do you rationalize it? Even in wiki: " By evening of 21 August, tanks of the Canadian 4th Armoured Division had linked with Polish forces at Coudehard, while the Canadian 3rd and 4th Infantry Divisions had secured St. Lambert and the northern passage to Chambois. The Falaise pocket had been sealed"
Not all who read these are ignorant of history so make sure your version of history is accurate.
@hzj79 Certainly the Poles shook hands with the Americans on the 19th/Aug, but the "gap" was not closed for another two days. For what it is worth the Poles are not the only ones to not get the credit due from their allies. Also, for what it is worth, Poland got screwed by the Brits and Americans at the end of the war, but as "solidarity" showed us, the Poles are not a people to take being oppressed lightly.
The Americans entered the Falaise pocket from the south and stopped at Chambois. The Canadians fought through Trun to St Lambert dur Dives a few kilometers north of Chabois. This video doesn't show the situation as described. It shows American content which could have been anywhere in Normandy.
I red a book about this battle. I was interested by this book becouse a polish armoured div. fought in this battle. I red there that they had to ran over dead bodies (was a lot on road) to reach Falaise. It was bloody massacre. Horrifying.
Hey Janitor easy dude take your pills.Everybody know that the Aussie where tought , but the Germans where the best trained and had the toughtest mind . They lost in Africa mostly because a very long way to drive for the supply...
It s the fact , and don t be angry , i m French serving in Aussie army .Digg a hole you can be a digger to...
americans call it a police action because they like to think they have never lost a war, but it was a war, it was not just us against nva + vc, it was north vs south
przeciez w tym filmiku nie ma mowy o Polakach hehe,az musialem 2 razy obejrzec zeby sie upewnic, a Wy sobie tak poprostu :) (oczywiście wiem wszystko o udziale Polakow :)

so shut the fuck up and hail germania Always outnumbered, never oupuned!!
germany is shit thats why they cant even win a war hahaha hey just remember who shot down the red baron your so called best pfff what a joke all you germans are known for is your wierd fag porn and fucking chickens,doucheland is for fags you gayboy AUSSIES ARE SECOND TO NONE member that you little bitch
Australians killed the red baron you inbred faggot maybe if you stopped sucking your daddys cock for five mins and done some research,you would realise that germany in ww2 and ww1 were humiliated,One Australian soldier is worth about 3000 stinkin krauts you dumb piece of smelly cock cheese...FACT
Damn you you stupid kraut.I maybe be British,but I,m smart enougth to know that the Australians were a huge part over your fucking Afrika Korp in North Africa.Gee,you fucking krauts were beaten twice and your not a good loser
