luftwaffe ahahaha

"If you see a plane with white stripes on a black background, it's the RAF. If you see a plane with black stripes on a white background, it's the USAAF. If you see no plane at all, it's the Luftwaffe."

A common joke amongst the Wehrmacht from June 1944 to May 1945

Actor Heinz Reincke (the german pilot in "the longest day") died july 13, 2011. RIP

[Wieland1985]

@seibelstein das ist echt Schade. Er war ein großer Schauspieler!

[buildingeverything]

I'm still amazed how they made this scene back then

[a869553]

looks like Black Friday haha

[puzleman1]

Could you Imagine 2 ME 262's  doing this instead of the me 109?

[GoodwoodAlpha]

@puzleman1 The planes in that scene are actually Bf 108s, which were two-seat trainers. Priller and his wingman actually flew Fw 190A-6s for their glorious strafing run, which were equipped with two machine guns and four cannon apiece.

[McMartinde]

@GoodwoodAlpha You are mostly right but the BF 108 was four-seated and originally build as a light travelling plane. The Luftwaffe actually used them as trainers and for courier- and connection-services.

[strongSLO]

Sehr gut luftwaffe! Deutschland über alles!

[slippery396]

Strange but true ... The Luftwaffe only made one strafing run during the first day of the attack.

[puzleman1]

Werent the Planes Bf 109's?????

[go1567]

Als ich die Szene zum ersten Mal sah, fiel mir nur ein : Wenn DAS kein Fatalismus ist!

[Piret223]

einfach zu geil :D

[rkremer]

Damn never thoughed somebody was crazy enough to put this on the internet;-))) I liked this scene since I was 7 years old and i`m 36 now!

[mezza205]

being a plane buff i love this scene.

does make me laugh just for the fact that the axis war machine couldnt manage a 3rd plane.

(its a film dont feel sorry for the pretend dead actors) remembrance day is for that.

[pudransemarikas]

sob sob brit faggy lost his grandpha in juno or gold? hahaha buuu buuu snifff poor faggy

[linebackertwo]

Shame the subtitles were not shown. The laughing German pilot was saying " Lets head home. The Luftwaffe has had its great moment lolol

[loftymeadow]

Loved this part of the movie!

Thanks for sharing!

[IIIJFRIII]

lol this is like the apititty of the epic old black and white war movies in the on little clip lolol. damn nazi bastards shooting us!

[hollywoodwerewolf]

Yes it was good there was only two of them. So many of their comrades were shot down over England or swallowed by the destruction in Russia.

[realtooreal]

They were shot down in response to their aggression.

[Bazgatow87]

@realrooreal

They were not shoot down, the one who strafed the beach, was "Pips" Priller, one of germany´s leading aces and he survived the war

[realtooreal]

I know that Priller and the other pilot were not themselves shot down. I read, by the way, Priller´s book about his time as a pilot.

I answered to hollywoodwerewolf who had written that so many of their comrades were shot down over England etc. I meant it in a general way, that is to say that Germany was the aggressor of WW II and that German planes were shot down because of that war.

[pudransemarikas]

still doesnt change the fact that you where asskicked in omaha pal hahah and mostly with only the mighty mg 42 that you feared so much lol

[realtooreal]

"Das war der große Augenblick der deutschen Luftwaffe, hahaha". Though war is sick this scene is still almost kind of funny.

[AmersfoortTristan]

It's comical in a very black sense. Hahaha

[klactv]

Thank heavens there were only two of them, and no Panzer brigade at all. Otherwise the Allies would have found themselves in dire straits.

[theliberator1]

@klactv thank heavens that hitler was such a nitwit.
