Line of fire - Battle of the Somme part 2

[Weedus2]

Great Losses on the Black Day was caused from a new german tactic to use MG.They made MG-Entrenchments which was some meters ahead the normal frontline Trench and always 2 Mg fired into a predefined "Death Zone".1 Mg from the Left the other from the Right in a X..Shape flanking Crossfire.This caused the 20,000 dead on 1 Day

[decimated550]

Hey queenie, Nusbacher, heeEEy...wink wink

[ar2110302]

Germans fought on both lines.

And they are still here.

All hail the Germans.

[realityright]

Two things:

1. Ignore the idiot Americans. Most do not even know basic history and who they voted for.

2. Do no think that ALL Americans are morons, some of us know history very well and can recognize an idiot in just a few words.

[TheTrueAdept]

@realityright 2 is true, I know a lot of history. I'm a history nut. The Germans, Britans, and French were about to sign a treaty right when we Americans went in. In reality, most of the nations who signed the Treaty of Versailles had a lot of doubts that the treaty itself would promote peace. Britain and the US actually was verbally against the treaty.

The Germans knew warfare, because throughout history of where the Germanic states now reside, they been fighting each other and outsiders...

[cavaleer]

Just idiotic generalship. This entire war was disgusting at the top. Just disgusting. Eternal praise to the troops. Eternal damnation to the generals.

[Rokket]

British Generals were bloody hopeless in WW1, end of story.

[theone1087]

I swear to providence, all of these high pitched British talking wimps on here tout Britain. The only thing that saved the British have been; 1.) You're on an Island, 2.) America and colonizing weaker peoples. Hitler could have easily destroyed every man at Dunkirk or launched a full scale invasion as late as 1943. Now look at you, the Church of England condones marrying Sodomites and lesbians and your capital is nearly under Sharia law. London is even nicknamed: "Londonstan."

[TheLiberalKnight]

@theone1087 You are a joke. More french died at the battle of verdun than total american casualities (including the just wounded) in WW1. You rescued no-one. If it weren't for the Russians, Hitler would have annihilated you at d-day. And your contribution to WW1 was so small, you don't even deserve a mention. In WW2, you fought well, don't get me wrong, but you never 'rescued' anyone as you like to think. The americans werent in the somme, thats why they aren't in the video, you fucktard.

[TheGary1882]

@TheLiberalKnight And what does d-day have to do with ww1 ? Better go back to school, we lost alot less men in WW11 because we didnt line men up and walk into machine guns, being stupid is nothing to bragg about. And you think 1 million plus men is so small it dosent deserve mentioning ? That is a fuckards statement, if one man died helping a forien nation its DAMN well worth metioning. My granfather was one that died in that mess, he was worth more then just mentioning.

[TheLiberalKnight]

@TheGary1882 You're an idiot. Lining up men to walk into machine guns was a short term reaction to a war that had NEVER BEEN FOUGHT BEFORE, retard. Do you think they had books detailing how to fight industrial wars in 1900? No. And you can talk, because when the Americans entered the war in 1918 they fought using exactly the same tactics as the allies did in 1914, which explains why you failed at every battle you fought during the few short months you were in France!

[THthefirst]

@TheLiberalKnight The US joined in 1917 not 1918 and actually the US were extremely aware of the power of machine guns and industrial killing since they were the only western power to have had previous experience of this in the Civil War.

And the US didn't fail in every battle they fought either.

Just a few major factual errors in your post......

[TheLiberalKnight]

@THthefirst No, you're factually wrong. The Americans, arrogant at their own fighting abilities over the allies, joined the war without taking into account French or British fighting experience. Thus, they fought in 1918 as Britain had done in 1914, and therefore there were massacres that should not have taken place. If anything saved the war as far as equipment goes, it was the tanks, which was not an American invention!

[THthefirst]

@TheLiberalKnight American troops played a key role in helping stop the German thrust towards Paris, during the Second Battle of the Marne in June 1918. General Pershing commanded more than one million American and French combatants. In these two military operations, Allied forces recovered more than two hundred square miles (520 km²) of French territory from the German army.

[TheLiberalKnight]

@THthefirst Bollocks. The German advance to Paris failed because it left the German troops even more exhausted than they had been before. Combined with the royal navy blockade which starved German troops to breaking point, there was no way the Germans could have won the war by 1917, in fact defeat by at least 1919 was certain.

[Zivudemo]

@TheGary1882

you have to understand that all that you know of military tactics, you just happened to learn of it because you're born after the WWI and WWII and all the other wars that came after, all those military laboraties, that gave birth to modern day warfare, if you were to create your own military tactics by taking as a starting point the american civil war and the american-spanish war, and deal with new technologies that a couple decades ago no had hear of. i bet you would do worse

[THthefirst]

@theone1087 "Hitler could have launched a full scale invasion as late as 1943"???

Absolute rubbish. You are making up history as you go along. He was defeated in the Battle of Britain by the British wimps, fighting overwhelming odds, defeating the Luftwaffe. As a result, Operation Sealion was called off.

It makes me laugh at the ignorance and stupidity of Americans. You really don't have a clue.

I imagine you are also an attention-seeker. So well done, you got some attention.

[theone1087]

I swear to providence, all of these high pitched British talking wimps on here tout Britain. The only thing that saved the British has been 1.) You're on an Island, 2.) America and colonizing weaker peoples. Hitler could have easily destroyed every man at Dunkirk or launched a full scale invasion as late as 1943. Now look at you, the Church of England condones marrying Sodomites and lesbians and your capital is nearly under Sharia law. London is even nicknamed: "Londonstan."

[BlakeInternational]

the greatest military disaster? Hardly, the Somme broke the Germany army's professionalism, it resulted in the stopping of the offensive on Verdun and caused Germany to lose 600,000 men it couldn't afford, the british and the empire could afford to lose 600,000 men, as demonstrated by the latter offensive at Ypres and the victory of the british army in 1918.

I would suggest the likes of the fall of Singapore as the greatest failure of the army. Thank god for the Soviets and Americans in WW2!

[dbstarfish]

Gosh, when I said the Blockade destroyed Germany I didn't know that it was the Royal Navy. Where would America be without your fucking historical knowledge. Listen Dickhead and that means you. I know that you have never been in the military, but I don't know what fucking world you live in when 1 million soldiers doesn't matter. Go unplug from the American invented internet listen to your Ipod and play with the lost relevance of your Empire. The U.S. Helped win WWI and that should be enough.

[ggregd]

The outcome of WW1 had the U.S. not entered is debateable, U.S. forced played key roles in stopping the German offensive of 1918 at Château-Thierry and Belleau Wood.  Even granting you that, your claiming that Britain had any appreciable role in the WW2 Pacific Theater is laughable in the extreme. She rolled over in Hong Kong and Singapore and was out for the duration. Even pulling most of the Austrailians off to Europe and seriously jeapardizing the defense of their homeland.

[martynrobin121]

@ggregd The U.S saw just 1 German push in 1918, They played a very small role in the Great war. They arrived 4years after the war had started. The British didnt play a vital role in the Pacific world war 2, Because they were fighting against the Axis Alliance Alone in Europe and Africa. Yes they were humiliated at Hong Kong and Singapore, However the U.S was humiliated at Phillipines 95+ Thousand troops surrendered also Pearl Harbour, Pacific fleet sunk! But the U.S did most work against Japs.

[dbstarfish]

@martynrobin121 We lost 75,000 at Bataan not 95,000. In either event it is our greatest military defeat in our history. The U.S. Army had 1 million men in France by November 1918, although we caught the end of the war, the presence of the U.S. military was as psychologically uplifting to our allies as it was devastating to the Central powers. The real unsung victor of WWI was the Royal Navy. Britain's blockade caused German society to crack before her army ever did.

[martynrobin121]

@dbstarfish The U.S played a very small role in the Great war, They filled a gap and saw just 1 German,Austro advance. Ottoman Empire and the Austro-Hungary had been wanting peace with the Allies since end of 1917. Germany was begging there Allies to stay in the war. And Britain,France had been fighting since 1914 the U.S arrived 1918. And yes your correct the British Navy blockade of German was VITAL and maybe did win the war.

[HatersGonnaHate1000]

@ggregdThe fact that you actually believe that literally makes me feel sorry for you. Americas army really isnt that good not then or now. All you had then is numbers and all you have now is technology. Your world supremacy wont last forever. And when it ends the new country will laugh at you. JUst like you yanks to with Britian because 200 years ago we were waaaay more powerful than you are now. all you do is hold your own shores. but whatever this cenctuary belongs to china. Enjoy your downfal

[dbstarfish]

@HatersGonnaHate1000 Obviously it doesn't belong to your literacy try spell check before you spout such stupidity. It will make you look marginally less stupid. Ask the Japs how good the US Army/Navy are. Many peoples have underestimated us (Hitler, George III, Hirohito) As for you being British, either schools have failed in the UK or you are a lying piece of shit. Me thinks its the latter. China is not our problem, but the UK needs to worry about turning into a Paki infested Shitholeistan.

[snakes3425]

Once again I have to ask, if the theory about massive artillery barages leveling the German Trenches followed up massive infantry attacks to take the trenches didn't work the first time the generals tried what made them think it would work the next 50,000 times

[bv141a]

where was the press?Why no civilian protest?Haig was a war criminal

[douglaslbg]

So much for white power. the asians trusted you and you abandoned them to their fate. Look at the fall of singapore! At the end of the day, the whites still care only abou themselves. Tis true till today.

[sasktank]

a large part of the british troops in ww1 were Canadain

[guysmiley00]

@sasktank Not a large part, but an appreciable part. 600 000 out of a total of around 8 million.

[diramonsky]

Why did they cut the tails of the cavalry horses?

[StephenETavington]

0:20 Hello again Dr Aryeh Nusbacher.

[onezdstrophy]

It appears Americans still suffer from delusions of grandeur. adickel9, perhaps you could start by looking up "The Battle Of Britain". Start with Wikipedia, anything more serious will be too much for you. The American contribution to victory was on a par with the French.

[adickel9]

@onezdstrophy

Yea maybe we didn't singlehandedly win the war, and i never said that, but without contribution from the U.S. a french invasion would have never been possible, and Russia would have just taken over where Hitler left off in Western Europe. We all know Britain fought bravely for 2-3 years just to keep them off the Isles, but they were way to exhausted in manpower and rescources to mount anything close to the Combined allied effort at D-Day, not to mention the Pacific...

[guysmiley00]

@adickel9 America loves to overstate its contributions to the World Wars, but your analysis of D-day and Western Europe seems pretty spot-on to me.

[guysmiley00]

@onezdstrophy Oh, come on, now. I'm no American zealot, but the D-day landings and reclamation of the Western continent would have been impossible without the Americans. In fact, the Soviets would likely have just rolled the Iron Curtain right up to the Atlantic without the US being there with the Allies to stop them.

[olililyall]

it will not happen again it cant i hope it doesnt terrible

[kemalmstf]

Ask The Turks How They Did It At "Galipolli!"

[EnonimusTransmission]

As an American I try to keep a positive view of our brothers across the pond, and watching a documentary about the horrible suffering they endured in WWI gives me sympathy indeed... then I read the comments, and honestly wonder if there's something in Europe's water which just makes you all mad.

[paxtofettel]

nice documentary, however I still prefer 20th century battlefields more.

Also to those arguing wether or not the US should have joined the war, all I have to say is chill out, enjoy the movie

[hamfish66]

not to mention their contribution to the liberation of europe as well as dealing with the japs on the opposite side of the planet.

[jody8526937]

Rusty, Gangstateck you are correct by noting that the USA did not enter the war until the enemy was almost vanquished. True. Most Americans do not realize this. Yet this disgust at American war pride is a little unwarranted. Neither of the two conflicts were in our hemisphere so we were right to claim neutrality like MANY european countries. It is easy for USA to feel pride as Hollywood loves to tell us how great the USA has been on the war stage. We are learning our lessons Korea Viet Afg.

[sniken93]

you guys were getting your ass kicked how can you say that america didnt help win the war(s).

[onezdstrophy]

We can say that because in Europe we learn from history books and not hollywood films.

[sniken93]

@onezdstrophy

so where did you guys get your oil?

[gangstateck9]

just think about it while a little island wer fighting all you americans cared about was building up your economy thats the only reason you overtook britain because you were too busy selling the germans steel and oil and then towards the end you try and claim our victory

all i can say is F U K, you

[sniken93]

spell much?

[RustyBob1010]

what the hell do you americans want? what do you expect from a little isalnd? at least great britain stood up to the germans in ww1 and ww2 where the hell were you? our boys were in it from the start you only joined in ww2 because pearl harbour got bombed lets be honest we were init as soon as germany invaded poland and ww1 all you did was come in and try n claim glory well you can fuck right off because victory went to great Britain, new Zealand, australia, france and south Africa NOT America

[samoyedfan]

Sad, so so sad, and pointless. Something I heard said in another film about WWI best sums it up. "Monkeys, led by idiots."

[snipersam3]

@samoyedfan

i think it's "lions lead by donkeys"

[scubanecky]

Raddbod u mean ur fucking ur lady boy u sad fag spetic tank (yank) get a life

[sniken93]

shut the hell up. you tea drinking fags needed the U.S. to win the war. and WW2...fag.

[onezdstrophy]

We won it before you lot even joined but it was good of you to turn up for the victory parade. You must have enjoyed it because you did the same in WW2.

Of course, you did fight one war on your own, in Vietnam. We didn't think you'd need help against peasant farmers armed with sharp sticks. How did that one go?

[hamfish66]

@onezdstrophy why did america have to join WW1? besides it was a bloody war with an astronomical death tally all fought over the ego of the euro imperial powers, how pathetic!

[onezdstrophy]

They didn't have to join. They waited until the last minute and then joined the winning side, just like they did in WW2.

The Europeans were fighting for their lives, the US didn't need to fight, they were the ones who joined to boost their egos.

[hamfish66]

what the hell are you talking about? they stayed out of ww2 until they were attacked by the japs at pearl harbour when their fleet had been substantially fucked. the ydidint have a choice.

[onezdstrophy]

If they'd had the balls to join at the beginning instead of trying to make a profit from it perhaps their fleet wouldn't have been destroyed, perhaps the japs wouldn't have taken half the pacific, perhaps millions of lives would have been saved, perhaps half of Europe wouldn't have fallen to the russians and perhaps they would have a modicum of justification in claiming that they had more than a peripheral role in the victory.

but they didn't.

[kemalmstf]

@hamfish66 You Are Abolutely Right! The US usually doesnt get involved in shit unless there is a profit to be made!!

[shriramvenu]

@kemalmstf like afghanistan! 10mil dollars worth in mineral ore - the war is suddenly winnable! XD

[86fija]

@kemalmstf who goes to war without a profit to made!!!! only if you are attack....

[13r1tish]

@hamfish66 us joined the war one reason because a ship full of british and americans where going to britiain but the germans sunk the boat.

[shriramvenu]

@13r1tish nop thats just the excuse warmonger wilson used to go to war nevermind that the lusitania incident happened almost 2 years before the US went to war! woodrow wilson was a war monger who wanted to impose his world vision on others thats why the US went to war. period.

[guysmiley00]

@hamfish66 In all fairness, Britain and France were far more democratic societies than the militaristic and autocratic Germany of the Kaiser.

[Lachausis]

@onezdstrophy

Learn more about Vietnam war and its politics. It's funny how people mention Vietnam war just to mention it, but without knowing anything about it. Peasent army you say? And what was US army? Conscripts, street junkies and farmers before they became soldiers.

[fredrunlikehell]

@Lachausis In fact, they were REALLY junk people "fight" for freedom for the RICH in their own contry...same with almost ALL American war...Petrol=$...So American will be at war !

[guysmiley00]

@Lachausis You're not seriously suggesting that the average NVA soldier was anything close to an American GI in terms of training and equipment, are you? Because that's just stupid.

[bougabouga]

@onezdstrophy farmers who didnt get training , GI did

[Truth118]

@onezdstrophy

In WWI the US entering the war was the turning point. The German were <100ki. from Paris.

We weren't geared for war when WWII started in 39. And we weren't quite ready in 41. We had an empire to fight in the pacific as well. It wasn't until we entered the war that a second front was opened in Europe.

[KurtSteiner]

@Truth118 Even with the raw AEF on the field, the British army still do most of the fighting. US did help to win the war, but they didn't wont it by themselves alone.

[THthefirst]

@Truth118 Nonsense, the failure of the german spring offensive had nothing to do with the small numbers of us troops. Britain had 5 million men, the french 6 million and germany 7 million. 300,000 americans were not decisive.

the war was won by the attritional battles of the somme, verdun and paschendale, from which the germans never recovered and also the blockade by the royal navy which caused food shortages and hyper inflation within germany

[guysmiley00]

@Truth118 I'm sorry, but your analysis of WWI borders on the delusional. The German's last offensive died long before any effective US force hit Europe. No, the turning point of WW1 was when the Allies finally started to gear their whole economies towards war, and their leadership at long last began to treat the war as a real event and not a theoretical exercise. The US hastened the conclusion, but that's about it.

[Truth118]

@guysmiley00 My analysis of WWI is borderline delusional because I wasn't entirely correct about how much or how little American forces helped the fatigued Allies?

[guysmiley00]

@Truth118 "Delusion (noun): a false belief or opinion."

Yes, believing that America's entry into WW1 was the "tipping point" is delusional. Germany was broken before the US even got going - all America did was roll back the German gains and hasten her surrender.

PS - the Germans had been "100 ki. from Paris" since 1914. Besides, the thrust of the German offensive wasn't against Paris, but between the Allied armies - and it had stalled by April, well before US soldiers arrived in number.

[Truth118]

@guysmiley00 Capturing the enemy's capital was the central theme of WWI and Germany didn't get close to Paris until their major offensive late in the war. Insult my argument, don't insult me, because it belittles your argument. Our opinions and personal views of the war are irrevocable in the context of this argument. I'm gonna call you deluded and say that I won. 

[adickel9]

@onezdstrophy you guys weren't gonna win shit without U.S aid.. we may not have won WWI but WWII... lol only Russia and U.S. ever won a single battle vs Hitler

[DuskEternal1]

@adickel9 britain france etc fought for years before you guys came in, britain stopped an incoming german invasion. WWI you came in at the end. Im glad and thankful not just to british troops but also to the americans for coming in. But you guys have got to stop these stupid thoughts that you guys won the war on your own because i assure you that is no where near the truth.

[Bvkiwi28]

@adickel9 ok dude, im from america and lets start with El Alemein, then D-Day(allied with america, but if u took the brits from the invasion, the US wud hav been forced right off the beaches), also the Battle of Britain, Operation Dragoon, and lots of others

[jonsidneyb]

@adickel9

It is really sad to hear Americans speak like this. Sure the USA contributed but why are so many of you minimizing the contributions of out Allies. In both great wars we came in late. Yes we made a huge difference but in both cases we came into the wars where there the allies and the enemy where exhausted.

We could not have gotten out foot onto Europe without the Allies.

[jbake9210]

@jonsidneyb

we did not come that late in WW2

[Teranex]

@jbake9210 Yes you cam in the very late war. While the soviets could do ALL THE JOB. There is a reason why 80% of all axis casualties were on the eastern front.

[guysmiley00]

@jbake9210 3 years into a 5 year war is pretty late. 3 and a half if you want to count from when American forces started to actually get into combat in effective numbers.

[CODexpertCY]

@adickel9 ... Greece fought for 1 years the italy and they won the war against them.Then all the axis forces invaded Greece Germany,Italy,Bulgaria,Albania­.

[parabat7]

@onezdstrophy In WW1 the US declared war in April 1917 but did not fight until St. Mihiel mid-September. USA in France for 1 year and 1 month.

[0Zolrender0]

@onezdstrophy I love your humour and insight into the american "we won every war ever, solo" mentaility.

[Dekar41]

@onezdstrophy actually, before the Americans showed up it's argued that the Germans were winning WW I. Britain and France were literally begging the US to send men. Just to send them and they would train the American soldiers.

The Allies were also lucky to have the Canadians from the start. Those guys were iron.

[guysmiley00]

@Dekar41 Not really. The final German offensive, conducted with troops moved in from the now-settled Eastern front, had petered out by the time Americans made it to the continent in any appreciable numbers. The Americans certainly helped roll back German gains faster, but the British blockade was already biting hard. Austria was long spent, and the Ottomans were crumbling. I would imagine a WW1 without direct US involvement would have been a longer version of the one we actually got.

[Dekar41]

@guysmiley00 cool, didn't know that.

[ThePalaeontologist]

@Dekar41 The Canadians were ace - but learn your older history; CANADA itself is lucky to be Canadian....oh, and guess why? Of course, because the BRITISH fought off the United States in the inconclusive and obscure '1812 War' (a minor sideshow forgettable even when it was going on to Britains real business against Napoleon in Europe!) when the yanks tried to take Canada during a very agressive Expansionary Politicy phase of the USA's history. The US turned up late, as usual to steal thunder.

[Dekar41]

@ThePalaeontologist ya we're pretty good at doing that

[Chevyguy2003]

@onezdstrophy lol stupid polish boy thinks he knows histrory. haha

[01thegirlnextdoor]

@onezdstrophy Britain would have lost the war without the United States in World War 1 so shut the hell up. And im not sure if your aware, but The United States had to fight a war against Japan as well as save your sorry asses from the Nazis. So before you start talking bad about the greatest country in the world, why dont you educate yourself before you try and start shit. USA

[pluxtheduck]

@01thegirlnextdoor hahahahaha the USA, what a failing economy...

[1Dougy85]

@01thegirlnextdoor Actually Britain would have won regardless in WW1. The US didn't do very much at the end of that war. I'm not sure if you are aware but Britain was also fighting the Japanese and the US didn't save anyone from the Nazis. Think you are the one that needs educating. The US didn't have more men in contact with the enemy world wide than the British until D Day. Greatest country in the world?

[LordWellington15]

@01thegirlnextdoor We were winning you dumb bastard. All you Yanks did was speed up our victory, you just wanted a piece of the victory cake

[GamagothRULES]

@01thegirlnextdoor Shot through the heart, and you're to blame.

You give Americans a bad name!

[martynrobin121]

@01thegirlnextdoor You said Britain would have lost the war without U.S?? In World war 2?? When the U.S arrived both Britain and Russia had humiliated the Axis Alliance on both fronts, It was only Japan who was winning, The Axis were certain to lose the war! In the Great war 1914-1918, The U.S arrived 1918 and saw just 1 german push! The U.S sat back while the Germans killed there civilians in both world wars, Also Millions of innocent civilians around the world. Great country in the world?? HA!

[dbstarfish]

@martynrobin121 Britain had humiliated Germany in 1941-1942? I think you have been smoking too much Crystal Meth! Let's see, British Defeats 39-42 in WWII: Norway, Dunkirk, Greece, Crete, Libya, Singapore, Malaya, Burma. Britain was holding on for dear life. The Brits are a warrior race, but they were hardly winning when the Americans arrived in 1942. Besides the Battle of Britain, the most important battle won on the anglo-american side was the Battle of the Atlantic but that was in 1943.

[HatersGonnaHate1000]

@dbstarfish I dont know wher you got those figures from but theyre bullshit, the war in africa was nearing the end by the time america decided to "save us" Russia had retaken stalingrad and were pushing back. ANd i dont know why you feel so proud for fighting in the "WORLD" war. America is in the "WORLD" thus you have a duty to fight. And the BoB was won by the Spitfire. you gave us 5 squadrens 4 of which were shot down in the opening days

[dbstarfish]

@HatersGonnaHate1000 Listen you intellectual cadamite, try taking your dick your hand and pick up a history book! The UK suffered some of its worst defeats in its military history in 1942, the fall of Singapore, largest surrender in UK history, the fall of Tobruk and Burma. The British were suffering their highest shipping losses of the war during the Battle of the Atlantic in 1942, so what the fuck are you talking? El Alamien was one battle. American has no duty beyond self interest, idiot.

[dbstarfish]

@onezdstrophy The U.S. had a million men on the Western Front by 1918. The Blockade of Germany and failure of Ludendorf's summer Offensives caused Germany will to collapse. While the US arrived late to WWI, why would we want to involve ourselves in typical European Bullshit. You needed us in WWI we provided the majority of men and material in WWII. The Cold War, more American hand holding of European incompatibility. You go ahead and keep lieing to yourself. You will all soon be Muslim anyways.

[ToaJoe]

@dbstarfish The blockade of Germany was from the British navy, you fucktard. We were starving them to death whilst the French fought on land before the Americans arrived. You are missing the key point, the only reason the Americans were drawn into the war was because the Kaiser ordered unrestricted sinkings on the atlantic- now why do you think he would do that? Because the royal navy was destroying Germany from the inside. Your troops were insignificant in this war. You should shoot yourself

[dbstarfish]

@ToaJoe Dumbass did you bother to read two posts down? obviously not go squeeze your zits and thank god that a Muzzie isn't hitting your mommie or is one?

[HatersGonnaHate1000]

@onezdstrophy Good god, couldnt have worded it better myself mate

[qxezwcs]

@onezdstrophy oh yeah? you said you've won it even before we came? then why is it that majority of the soldiers in D-day in europe are americans? why is it that most tanks you've used are "SHERMAN"? even your ever famous navy are getting wiped out by german submarine attacks back at those times isn't not? and where the hell do you think you took most of your supplies during the 2nd world war? transatlantic maybe? canada? absolutely not. ungrateful bastards...

[qxezwcs]

@onezdstrophy oh yeah? you said you've won it even before we came? then why is it that majority of the soldiers in D-day in europe are americans? why is it that most tanks you've used are "SHERMAN"? even your ever famous navy are getting wiped out by german submarine attacks back at those times isn't not? and where the hell do you think you took most of your supplies during the 2nd world war? transatlantic maybe? canada? absolutely not. ungrateful bastards...

[NotoriousMannk]

@qxezwcs actually if you look a the figures (do some research) you will find that on D - Day the US landed 73,000 compared to 83,115 Commonwealth soldiers. Also, the Battle of the Atlantic had by this time been won by ... the Royal Navy! Also most tanks in HM Forces weren't Shermans, its just that by 1944 it was the MBT (a bad one at that). However, the US was as Roosevelt said, the great arsenal of democracy, there is no ingratitude for that, only disbelief at poorly informed arrogance.

[qxezwcs]

@NotoriousMannk you really are on the dark. . . where did you get all the supplies to feed your soldiers my englishman? We cleared the whole atlantic ocean for your convenience my friends, we even feed your population and your soldiers.. we even supplied almost everything. Without our continued supply, you have surely been strangled.

[NotoriousMannk]

@qxezwcs I dont deny the US supplied the bulk of the material, I mentioned that already (Arsenal of Democracy). But youre "we cleared the atlantic" for you is bollocks. HMS BullDog captured Enigma, Bletchley Park decoded it, the RN came up with all the anti sub tactics and tech. Just be proud of what the US (not you) did and try not to ruin their memory amongst foreigners by writing unfounded opinions. Stop saying "we", you werent there!

[cavaleer]

@NotoriousMannk So you don't say WE when you talk about what happened 100 years ago in your country? Those were YOUR grandparents and great-grandparents. THAT'S why he can say WE.

[cavaleer]

@NotoriousMannk  And why do you think Bill McQuade on this video says "WE"??? Wake up and open your eyes.....

[K3yB04dG000n]

@onezdstrophy You won world War II by yourself? are you fucking retarded sir? You British bitches got your asses kicked out of france and out of Burma and your asian colonies by the japs... then you got your asses pummeled all across north in your pathetically made tanks until we supplied you with new ones. The Americans and Soviets won world war II, dont fool yourself... you guys did have a conveniently located string of islands though... such lunacy, yeah we showed up just in time

[THthefirst]

@K3yB04dG000n Given that the USSR inflicted 80% of all German Army deaths, I would say it was the USSR alone that did it.

As for calling the 370,000 British troops and 60,000 civilians who were killed (more than all US losses) in fighting for their homes and families against evil, alone in Europe in 1940, as "bitches" says an awful lot about the kind of person you are. Very few if any of the brave US servicemen in WW2 would agree with you.

Why reduce everything to childish abuse?

[antimainstream]

Hahahah! You're hilarous.

[DimitrisKs]

fuck thay cocksucker hobbit of a man, hes in every doc, and hes plain retarded,

[Raddbob]

the british plan is weak, ive devised better battle plans when im fucking my ladybitch

[feastonmyload]

somewhat incomparable consequences though. you get it wrong, she gets a sore ass. They got it wrong, 20000 dead in one day.

[Ele3tricEye]

but youve gotta admit, them relying almost entirely on artillery was not too smart

[TheAmericanPageant]

What was not smart was using shrapnel shells than high-explosive shells. Artillery will always be a crutcial entity to have because it softens a target if its used correctly. Unlike the British that relied on ligth guns which aren't going to soften a target that a heavy gun can do with more destructive shells than shrapnel.

[Ele3tricEye]

exactly. i wonder what they must have been on to make a decision like that

[TheSirRoberto]

@feastonmyload i heard that it was 20,000 in 1 hour

[maffew9]
