One way or another Hitler was always going to lose, if he did manage to defeat the Soviets the chances are he wouldnt of stopped there. He would of probably sent his army on some other impossible crusade while he tried to enact the final solution. Chances are that Germany would of been defeated by a general uprising which it would be too weak to put down if the allies never invaded the mainland.
Not if Mussolini hadn't pulled Hitler into Greece and Yugoslavia, and (in addition to that) if Hitler himself hadn't declared war on the US.
Britain alone (and also facing the Japs) would not be capable of an invasion and its bomberfleet would be easily contained by the luftwaffe.
With Moskow (important railwayhub) taken in 41 Leningrad wld soon fall and the soviet commanders had to flee behind Ural without time to redeploy industry.
@oddballsok True, Hitler thought he already defeted the Russians . So he took his time. over Million Russian Soldiers surrendered. Hitler thought he already Won! Just kick in the door and all Russia would be Germanys. he was a Fool!
McLaren does speak sense about the might of the RN. As Winston himself said, no army could get to England with the RN in the way - a global fleet that would have encircled Britain with steel.
This was the best British WW2 tank. Inferior to the German Panther or Russian T34 but better armoured & armed than a Sherman. Only the M26 Pershing was a better US tank.
@MrAquafan - Correct, soldiers - all soldiers - feared flamethrowers, or should I say hated them. In fact they hated them so much, soldiers with a flamethrower were never taken prisoner, but killed on the spot. While soldiers could live with the imagination of being shot or being killed by a grenade or something, noone would want to die such a horrible death
No we weren't. Not nearly. The British were also fighting the Imperial Japanese, on land & sea.. and so was New Zealand, Australia, The Chinese (KMT and CCP forces), & local contingents from the Philippines.
We might have been the most consequential force, but there were a number of forces opposing the Japanese before & with us.
Most of them originated in areas the Japanese first invaded, like China, Australia, almost everywhere in the British Empire except Britain herself & the Philippines.
WRONG. England held off the germans for 5 years by themselves without american help. Maybe supplies yes, but shooting NO. They developed the churchill early on before the americans got involved.
Hate to say this to you but according to German sources and according to modern historians, 80 percent of all German casaulties were on the Eastern Front. As far as Hitler was concerned and the German high command, this was their main front and where the war would be won or lost. Without American resources and lend lease to all fighting countries the war could have been lost or ended in stalemate.
Sorry, but the Soviets did the lion's share in defeating the wehrmacht.Read about it
@McLarenMercedes wow.. i didnt know that 80% of the german army casaulties were on the eastern front... crist that winter realy screwed the germans up.
@ImperialUprising if the russian and americans didnt get involed mainland britain would have fell pretty fast with the SS stroming are beachs they where killing machines germany was only beaten because of the hordes of allies millions and millions of men against 1 country??
really? The Americans weren't involved in 1940 and the Russians weren't yet allied with Great Britain. What stopped the nazis from "easily" invading Great Britain. I'll tell you why, they didn't have nearly enough landing craft to make an effective invasion, and without total air superiority they could never take on the might of the Royal Navy, at that time the largest fleet in the world.
In fact Hess landed in Great Britain in 1940 to make peace with them. That failed.
1 country huh? What about Italy, Japan, Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Bulgaria, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and the Vichy French and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in occupied countries that fought on the German side??
Not to forget about the millions of slave labor from occupied countries that worked their asses of in German weapon and ammunition factories producing arms.
You're an idiot machine. Hitler himself didn't want war with Great Britain.
Ha Ha Ha....you mean the Churchill that took Britian through the war kicking the Nazis out of Africa, whiping their ass over the English channel and storming over the Rhine into germany and stomp all over their beaten bones until they SURRENDERED yet again......Ha Ha Ha. Oh yea...you had a little corporal for a leader, or should I really say failure.
This the same Jew controlled PM who didnt bomb the Auschwitz rail lines, the same Jew controlled PM who didnt give the Germans tens of thousands of trucks to save the Hungarian Jews, and who attempted to prevent large scale immigration of Jews to Palestine?
No, the first ever operating Churchill tanks on the Western Front on the OMAHA beach in June 1944 (D-DAY) were very unsuccessfully. Many tanks were easily killed by German tanks. the main armament was also very weak plus the 40mm 2 pounder had a very low Muzzle velocity of 792 m/s. It could only penetrate 49mm armour at distance of 457 m. so the Churchill was already outdated when it arrived in France. Though the chassis was upgraded and they were still used as pioneer vehicles on the beach.
Sny you are absolutely wrong on all accounts. No churchills landed on Omaha, the gun by Normandy was a 75mm or 57mm gun. The 2lber was a high velocity weapon, 792 m/s was standard for most high velocity weapons like the German 75mm or US 76.2mm.
The design was outdated but it gave stellar service, its heavy armor allowed it to give fantastic support to the infantry which it advanced with. Not a tank for modern warfare but when a line needed to be broken through it was very good.
No you were NOT right. You said they first were used on Omaha beach in 1944, where they in fact did NOT appear at all. You also didn't know they already had been used in the 1942 Dieppe raid.
So you were wrong, wrong and wrong. But instead of accpeting that you started to make lousy excuses like that Dieppe is in France and hence you weren't really wrong.
For your info Omaha was just one of 5 beaches the allies landed in Normandy.
@McLarenMercedes shut the fuck up already you little attention seeking whore and get a fucking life, nobody gives a shit geeeeeesh! i swear you're soooo fucking annoying! what is the point of sitting there all day and spamming all videos related to ww2 just because people don't agree with you? don't you have any real friends? better kill yourself nobody will ever miss you.

Let me ask you a question? Are you for real?? You see I am having a hard time taking a mindless clown like you seriously.
I made you look clueless and that annoyed you. Pettminded as you are.
I have lots of friends, and they all say I am loyal.
"Kill myself?" Speak for yourself clown. I am allergic to idiots.

which is why it wasnt a tank for fighting tanks, it was a infantry tank... (not to mention the armour was good enough it didnt need to fire back so much, it would sit, take the shot then a friendly sherman or cromwell or even PIAT team would get the enemy)
lol, funny thing is, later churchills had a better gun then cromwells and shermans, the 6pdr? A churchill actualy scored the very first tiger tank killl, with its 6 pounder gun. It was a good gun, better then normal sherman and cromwell guns, the churchil was EASILY able to engage mark 4s and lower. it could take hits from tigers at certain ranges, but it could rarely kill the mat combat ranges.
@korn6499 It may have been a crummy-looking design, mate, but it was an effective weapon. There were numerous upgrades to the basic design, even one where a flamethrower was installed, called the Churchill Crocadile. The Germans, bless 'em, were petrified whenever one showed up on the battlefield.
I'd really enjoy seeing you fail at doing any better. P.S.-this is an ENGLISH language video. At least post your mindless troll-drivel in ENGLISH, or don't post at all.
Well pal, I don't know what to tell you, other than if you aren't willing to speak English, since you can obviously read it, than you shouldn't post you troll crap on an English video.
