mikey you're fuckin adorable. too bad your real grampa is probably a russkie since we all know even the ugliest frauleins had a take a number machine on her thigh. so, ever ask daddy what it was like marinating for 9 months in a veritable SEA of russian sperm?.. i bet he liked it.
@kpdsza Superior to whom? Your Economy's in the shitter, China's made you her Economic bitch, You couldn't do sweet FA in Iraq, despite pouring a Trillion dollars and 6000 lives into it.
Please educate us on WHY exactly you are superior....
@kpdsza 1) Way to miss that putting Atlantis, Turkmenistan was a comment on the parochiality of the concept of "nationality" on an international website, when we should be beyond such concepts.
2) You STILL haven't given us any rationale for why you think America is superior.
@trinitymike "Us"? You got a mouse in your pocket? You seem to be the lone troll here. "We"?
And it was no "comment" on anything-you're making it up as you go. "Parochial concepts" my ass. You're not that smart. If you had a brain you would realize one small example of America's greatness is Youtube and the Internet, which you are using right now. Where is Europe's internet. Where is China's Microsoft or Africa's Apple? Loser.
@kpdsza Fine... you still haven't given me any rationale; you say something, then can't give a reason for doing so, then get annoyed for being asked, referring to me as a troll.
You DO know that 90% of the effectiveness of YouTube and the Internet is because of the international community, right?
"And it was no "comment" on anything-you're making it up as you go."
LOL...I LOVE how Americans love to tell others what they were REALLY thinking. I think I know my thought processes better than U
@trinitymike You goofball, I just gave you the four very good examples.
"Effectiveness"??, what the hell does that mean, they come from America. Do I have to mention Google, Facebook, and Victorias Secrets?
You may have a small point, though. A very small one. Lately we've been trying to do great things, but using the methods those limp-wristed, spineless, homo's over in Europe would use. Where is George Patton when you need him?
Nazi Germany could never produce their own "Luftfestung". That's probably not for their lack of technology, but for their lack of "strategic bombing" idea.
@notaire2 In fact we had one - the Heinkel HE-177. But it was plagued by heavy failures in its' technological developement throughout its' Lifetime. That's why it never took a notably toll on the allied. Somewhere between 1000 and 1100 were produced
Thank you for your information. I've searched on YouTube and found several channels uploading the bomber. But almost all channels haven't estimated the aircraft highly. Also die deutsche Wochenschau almost didn't cover it at all. Anyway I'm willing to revise my opinion about the lack of "strategic bombing" ideas on the side of Nazi Germany.
@liljgoneman Dude....stop whining about being "blocked'....you aren't...And I noticed my comment to you wasn't posted either, so I guess people in glass websites...etc....
@liljgoneman He was still braver than you'll ever be; He had a lot of respect for the Allied pilots and thought their job was extraordinarily dangerous...I guess respect for your opponent isn't something they teach in the Chess Club, eh tubby?
@trinitymike tubby huh? thats funny shit. too bad your opinion means NOTHING to me, much like your existence. you're a blowhard AND a coward and it's too fuckin bad mommy didn't swallow your ass when you came shootin out your daddies tiny cock. Like dady like cocksucker i reckon.
This is an awesome documentary. It is fascinating since it was made at the time of the war, so it's very interesting to hear what is on the minds of people at the time ... "Boeing builds for victory!"
"...develop a spot welding table that a woman can run"
The 1940's were definitley a time of blatant sexism BUT That statement is NOT sexist !, if it had said "that EVEN a woman can run" then you may have a point.
There are undeniable differences between the sexes - If there were no Differences, then the would BE no Sexes ! (and 'Vive la difference'!)
Women have different dimensions, tolerances and operating characteristics !, that is NOT SEXISM but a STATEMENT OF FACT !
@xXalteranXx - Sexism? No. You can't put today's "values" on past generations. The number of women in the workforce was not very high, so there was no need to develop production line equipment for a novice. But once the US geared up for full war production, "Rosie the Riveter" became common-place. Most riveters and welders spent years learning their trade. These women had to learn quickly, and through
perseverance and intelligence became a mainstay of the Arsenal of Democracy.
A few years back I had the great pleasure of going aloft in one of these aircraft. From Moffett Field, Mountain View, CA I flew across the San Francisco bay up and over the Golden Gate Bridge and back. Almost inconceivable to me it was, as the pilot never took the plane above 5 - 6 thousand feet, it must have been 25k feet up with temperatures such as they were all the while being hammered at by the Germans. Brave folks were those men. Brave men indeed...
@mojofuel62 YOUR SO LUCKY!!!!!! And you are absolutely right about the brave men who flew them in WWII on their dangerouse missions. GOD BLESS THEM ALL!!!!!
Thank you for showing the B-17 documentary. This is one of the great planes we all owe so much to those who built and flew these planes in the face of so much danger. The men who flew her were unbelievable
@RUSSSELLLLL Narrators back then sound strange to us today because they reflected a particular fashion, that's all. Today's announcers will sound odd in a few years. You can hear this for yourself easily enough: just listen to film trailers. Even a moment's reflection makes it evident that people do not ACTUALLY speak that way. You might also see if you can get your hands on recordings of 60's pop DJ's and compare them with those of today. Fashions change!
@DDSeever Fashions change?? That they do!! I remember seeing some old home made films that my parents took not long after the home movie camera was introduced into the market place. For some reason, everyone being filmed thought they were supposed to walk up toward the camera!! I'm old enough to remember TV commercials from the early 1960's. Talk about different??
