Riveting documentary 

[SwordPengy8]

@GigglinMarley They saved your ass from being a nazi. Be grateful.

[GigglinMarley]

@SwordPengy8 You little silly ignorant child. My country was allied with Germany to defend against the Russian invasion! And i am thankfull to my grandfather and his generation wich fought against the russians to let us keep our independence instead of becoming another occupied soviet eastern country. Did you live under soviet occupation? I think not! I suggest you go to eastern Europe and ask people if they had a wonderfull time behind the Iron Curtain! Ever hear of the Berlin wall?! Idiot!

[iownage4youi]

@GigglinMarley communism is freedom you moron. It's a classless and stateless societ where property is for everyone, as long as you don't enslave others for it. Read Marx before judging something you clearly don't understand.

[GigglinMarley]

@iownage4youi I was being sarcastic. My wife is Russian, and she stood in the 5 hour qeues for food when the Soviet Union fell apart. I bet you never talked to anyone who lived under that regime at all. Continue to read your Marx and live in fantasy land.

[iownage4youi]

@GigglinMarley well excuse me, but I didn't noticed it. Oh, and the Soviet Union wasn't marxist, and I have friends that lived under that regime, and I don't live in fantasy land just because I read Marx and you don't.

[GigglinMarley]

@iownage4youi The Soviet Union wasnt Marxist? Lol.... And yes you live in fantasy land.

[iownage4youi]

@GigglinMarley Okay, than what was so marxist about the soviet union? And no, I don't live in fantasy land.

[SuperBigblue19]

iownage4youi property is for everyone? Very naive. Under communism the STATE owns everything, including you. There is no freedom. You are a slave of the state and you and your resources will be used as the state sees fit. Someone will always be at the top and someone else at the bottom. You can drip icing on a turd but it still tastes like a turd if you bite into it. Communism/ Fascism equal slavery to a dictator in the end. Marx is fantasy reading.

[iownage4youi]

@SuperBigblue19 communism is the dictatorship of the proletarian, and not the dictatorship of one man nor one party. In a communist society all property belongs to the society, and is the free development of each, the free development of all. And if you don't believe me, go read The Communist Manifesto, just as Nelsen Mandela and Mahatma Ghandi did.

Sorry, I don't wnat to waste my time with such a fucktard like you. Only saying Marx is fantasy reading, even if you didn't read it ignorant dick!!

[jtebaize]

When he says that to the german officer, that he havent the permission of his father, the german say: "so if you can't come on your own mind, we will force you to go in the soviet front, and your father will have only his eyes for crying".

It's an hard story, so much respect for him on the other...sorry for my bad english, Au revoir

[jtebaize]

This guy is my grandfather, thank you to all positive comment, his life was hard, like thousand young european people

[CinnamonaYT]

@jtebaize Bonjour ! J'espere que votre grand-pere n'a pas ete decu par ce minifilm, son histoire est dure a raconter en 5 minutes... Il est vraiment un homme exceptionnel, j'espere qu'il va bien.

[jtebaize]

@CinnamonaYT Merci de votre commentaire, oui il va bien, je l'ai vu ces vacances. His story was, whan he was 17, his dream was to be an pilot of plane, because he was in Alsace, german army come in his school for recrutment and searching for young pilot. He made all successfull test, and he was first for doing pilot. But when he came home (he was 17 so he need permission of his father) his father say, that he never going with german army whatever for doing pilot

[CinnamonaYT]

@jtebaize Among the comments to the whole "War witness" series I saw already few comments from the grand-children of the veterans. It's so moving... It makes the history live. Un grand bonjour de Russie pour votre grand-pere !

[martynrobin121]

The Communist had labour camps and death camps!! They took 100s of thousands of slaves in east europe before the war and after! They also killed millions and were just as bad as the nazis! This guy got lucky most people taken from the russian were never seen again!

[kolbpilot]

What a interesting, wonderful, sad story.

[someman7]

granpa, at least you didn't have to kill anyone. that's a plus, ain't it?

[1Tajna23]

A nice piece of history!

[DaemonPazuzu]

That sounds like the Russian government of the 1940s all right.

[RmanDC]

@DaemonPazuzu Last 250 years were a lil.. em... rough. Interestingly enough it's mostly the "elites" of these two nations that provoke all the hatred. If you take normal russian and polish families, they would make splendid neighbors.

[DaemonPazuzu]

@RmanDC Yes, in fact a Russian couple did live next to me for q number of years, so I know that what you're saying i absolutely true.

[termanedieter11]

There was a Polish saying, i recalled, that they lost our lives to Nazi Germany, but then they lose their souls to the Soviet Union.

[RmanDC]

@termanedieter11 And now they are loosing the last of their dignity to the USA

[termanedieter11]

well, they've had enough of Russia, I guess. most Poles that I ever know hates Russia's guts, and I don't blame them.

[businessguys]

Sorry, RT is a loony left wing Propaganda site... hey dudes, know your place. You are basically a Third world nation with nukes.

[XIPM3]

@businessguys and you are a monkey with a tiny brain.

[chevytheplayer]

@businessguys

lol, have you seen the US's black hole of debt????

Soon you'll be the ones looking like a 3rd world country, thanks for funding your bankers

[lipoicacid]

@chevytheplayer The bankers are international.They own the IMF and BIS.The entire world will be third world.

[amzuel420]

I would think this guy was a real fine gentleman and anyone who he called a friend was lucky. What a great person.

[Bebyko2008]

@amzuel420 Gentelman ? "What a great person" ? he just said he betraid the germans................

[amzuel420]

@Bebyko2008 Anybody who betrayed the Germans in WW-ll ......I would call...a gentleman and friend. And even in all his tribulation he didn't seem to hold a grudge. Ya....I'd go with gentleman and friend....no problem.

[CinnamonaYT]

@amzuel420 Thank you so much for your comment! I have a great respect for this man, and you're right, he's a real fine gentleman :-)

[captainzerb]

@CinnamonaYT are you fucked look at that dirty krauts face and tell me hes not a goose stepping mongrel

[CinnamonaYT]

@captainzerb He's not. Why?

[jtebaize]

@captainzerb Watch your mouth scumbag, this is my grand father, joining by force nazi army, because he lives in Alsace(est of France), escaped of this army, and be prisoner by the russian. Dont talk about what you didnt know, and stop hating, because at 17 years old, i think his life was harder than talkin on youtube, dirty son of bitch

[captainzerb]

@jtebaize

lololololololololol

[Bebyko2008]

@amzuel420 Seems you don't know the saying "The war is made by the winners" .....ths guy can say anything now , no more witnesses remain from that era.....

[amzuel420]

@Bebyko2008 Seems you don't like people having an opinion. And I believe it's actually the "history" that's "written" by the winners. That's why you have to read "the rest of the story".

[Bebyko2008]

@amzuel420 Want to talk in Romanian, to see how you doing?

[amzuel420]

@Bebyko2008 How would talking in Romanian, gauge "how I'm doing"? Just to humor you........Here's a little Romanian Prayer I like

Dear Lord,

Apără-mă de găini, că de câini nu mă tem. Now.... you could try translating that into English but as most respectable Romanians know...Romanian sayings and prayers don't translate directly into English very well, so I wouldn't go there.....And BTW.......I think you're outta gas.

[Bebyko2008]

@amzuel420 Stop trying to be smart....

[amzuel420]

@Bebyko2008 Well that's just the thing....I don't try. But what I "do" try...is to know what I'm talking about, before I start talking. The first comment I made was purely opinion...it didn't require an answer. That was your choice. My choice? I say "God bless Romania"....and God bless you too.

[Bebyko2008]

@amzuel420 yeah sure sure......

[jerseyflex238]

Sooo @amerikaer101 your dumb as goat.) The Germans aren't bad Nor Russians nor Americans...it's Nazis, Hitler, Stalin and war!

If i was told today to kill someone who i liked i would turn my GUN AROUND! or run away, this guy points out he was very young...i wouldn't shoot at Russians!

[Nitrorus]

jerseyflex238,

U r right except Stalin. You could also remember who pushed hitler to the East: UK, US, France and Canada (Munich treaty). But if the will to defend own country is a guilt, than yes, Stalin is also guilty.

[jerseyflex238]

@Nitrorus hey, you follow news? Heard about N. Korea- they are nuts! I'm Russian and looking at Communist state I understand now West. imagine that, as size of Russia! Plus Stalin was a terrorist and a head of country! thats like Chechen-Arab terrorist Hattab ruling Russia! He was never elected by Russians, he took power by force from his Bolshevik friends...so Russians suffered most from Stalin period! )

[Nitrorus]

Аха, ты такой же русский, как из меня негр. Начать хотя бы с того, что русские не пишут друг другу по-английски, да ещё и такой бред. Резюмируя -- болван ты. Не обижайся, пожалуйста, это правда.

[jerseyflex238]

@Nitrorus на кретинов не могу прости) Это Англо-язычный канал Russia Today) Национальность твою определить сложно ибо Русские не чтят убийц своего народа. Ты может Грузин? Берие и Сааки приует) . Если ты не смог прочитать то мне жаль твою учительницу по Английсокму* "But if the will own country"-WTF is that, GOOGLE Trans? иди в школу, ты позоришь Россию!

[Nitrorus]

Хоспидя... развелось же болванов с "двумя классами церковно-приходской". Подучи историю, малыш (не по возрасту, по уму), и не пиши больше глупости.

[Nitrorus]

Давай, продолжай лить воду на мельницу либерастов -- жидов на деньги Гомдепа. Продолжай плевать в своё же прошлое, манкурт. Они тебе даже спасибо не скажут (не в их правилах), хоть ты и "полезный идиот" (так говорил ещё Ленин) для них.

[amerikaner101]

Sooo..........the russians where going to treat them like a german kill him possebly like other german POWs .........not looking so good for the ruskys.....they where as bad as the germans

[GarlicToast]

@amerikaner101 Every belligerent in the war had its proud moments as well as some not proud moments. It happens, it is absolutely NOT a good reason to bias oneself against another country over something that happened in the past, that doesn't reflect the people in the country. That is one of the best parts of RT's videos...they show things as they were, not to make Russia look like the angels of the war.

[RmanDC]

@amerikaner101 Let's count how many germans returned home from POW camps and how many french, poles and russians.

But you wouldn't have a slightest idea on that, now would you.

[murk2002]

Well sir you are in a long line of people that were lied to by Russians that nearly died .

[RmanDC]

@murk2002 Russians? Why, there are not communists anymore? Not the "Reds"?

An american talking on matters of mass deceit, is kinda like an american talking against nuclear bombing, exploitation of 3rd world countries, spreading liberty and freedom vie genocide, and obesity.

[TheVMFA333]

don't forget America bombed germany tell the whole story

[yuriythebest]

hehe silly russians

[Yamakashi1]

@yuriythebest lol
