Recognize the march tune used for the "opening march" at 12:30?

The Colonel Bogey March from "The Bridge on the River Kwai."

A movie which centered on the inhumane conditions under which British and Australian POWs were held by the Japanese. (The producers of this t.v. program must have been at ...

It was during the 18th century Enlightenment, the "Age of Reason", that the stoical idea of the natural rights of man were re-discovered and further developed on. It was when these ideas found their way into the halls of power, that laws were finally passed to abolish slavery and extend rights to...

That's a KATUSA, isn't it? (Korean Augmentee To United States Army). A "katusha" (or katyusha) was an artillary rocket from your grandpa's time.

(A Co., 2/503rd Inf., Hovey, '87-'88)

@TimoTheTipper The uploader's notes indicate that this group is in Britain (...not Americans). Grüß aus Amerika.

@temporalmatrix The Associated Press says that the dog has been placed in quarantine until a judge can hold a hearing "and rule on the dog's fate".

The uploader states in his notes, "The animal is not showing any signs of rabies but may be put down anyway."

I'd say getting up to a mastiff's face ...

Look, idiots; McCarthy had nothing to do with the House UnAmerican Activities Committee. Joseph McCarthy was a member of the United States Senate (you know, der Bundesrat die Vereinigten Staaten). The HUAC was a committee of the U.S. House of Representatives --our Bundestag. McCarthy never invest...

Well, gosh, it's nice to see the DDR kept on the same announcer and music (newsreel fanfare) as the old Nazi "Wochenschau", eh?

'De-nazification' in the eastern zone must have been real simple: just change parteiabzeichen and keep doing your job as you had been doing it in the good ol' days!

One thing you should keep in mind, if you get into a conversation with infantry guys who served in 2nd ID before 1987, is that the Army went and changed all of unit designations for the infantry battallions in late '86 and early '87. 2/503rd (leg, Hovey) was 1/38th; I don't remember what new desi...

The inscription is from Hitler's 'Mein Kampf': "Whoever loves his people, proves it solely through the sacrifice that he is (for this) ready to make."

Hitler needed a dentist, didn't he? (2:32). At the very least he needed some Topol toothpaste; but I guess he didn't smoke, did he? Couldn't have Himmler found him a good Jewish dentist? I'm sure he would have done the work for cheap. (....I wonder if Hitler would have let him use gas on him, tho...

@secutorclaudius Can you show me just one example of his work that is a "copy" of any particular Hellenistic or Greco-Roman statue, bust or relief? I think you mean he sculpted in the style of the Greeks. Accurately representing healthy and beautiful human bodies; art which exalts in the human fo...

It's not "saTURnella" or "SATurnella", it's pronounced "sa-tur-NAIL-ee-a".

@MrAntonios17 I notice you really didn't answer any of my questions (rhetorical they may be).

What I object to is the fact that Greeks are making a moral claim to these artifacts based on their ETHNICITY. Morally and spiritually speaking, the legacy of classical Hellenic civilization belongs to a...

I see you're getting the same socialist nonsense in school the rest of us have been getting. The idea that child labor was something introduced by those wicked, factory-owning capitalists. What does everyone suppose the kiddies were doing before the Industrial Revolution? Going to school? And the...

Nestles, Liptons Teas, Quaker Oats, Grape-Nuts (cereal), Cadbury's Cocoa, Kodak. You Brits can tall us: is Pears Soap still around? Hovis Bread?

It's amazing how many of these companies (or the brand names at least) are still around after more than a hundred years.

@kght222 "What is civilization?" The narrator answers this question in this documentary starting from 22:15, but especially from 24:15 through 25:10. (He got one part wrong: it was the ancient stoics and not the Christians that developed the concept of the 'universal brotherhood of man'. The Chri...

@larlar752000 The point is, if they are able to pull this off, is it would be the first time any PRIVATE entity puts humans into orbit (with, obviously, the capability of bringing them back to Earth safely). As of now, only three entities have demonstrated this capability: the governments of Russ...

"MCMLII" (1952) it says at the end of the clip; but, yeah, that is footage Riefenstahl's team shot at the Berlin Games in '36. It's interesting because much of what is seen here didn't make into the final production of her 1938 documentary "Olympia". It would be nice if an effort was made to coll...

@TrojanEpic Hey, hey, hey, hey!!! You need to get your eyes examined, there, pal ! The one on the right is gorgeous!

....Okay, ...maybe her lips are a little too big....., but she's got nice cheek bones, pretty teeth, beautiful eyes --she's gorgeous! (And, if I may add, she eats sensibly --she ...

So, this version of the Rienzi Overture is your favorite, this one performed under the baton of Otto Klemperer? You do know why Otto Klemperer had to leave Germany in '33, right? That's probably why this accompanying photo montage is really inappropiate.

@rw5791 "...and then there are those creeps who whip out their cameras to start taking pictures." Hahahahaha! And what does that make you, ...you who have navigated here to get a look at those pictures?!? You f"ckin' hypocrite! Ha!

Uh, ...so you had to give him your keys so he could unlock the gas tank door to fill your tank, right? (It looks like you're getting your keys back from him to re-start your car.) I wondered about that, and how you paid him. Very nice service!

It was intended that there would be a world's fair in New York every twenty-five years, right? 1989-'90 and, ...oh look, one coming up in 2014-'15!

@barrania2 Yes, the LATE Middle Ages. The "Middle Ages" (or "Medieval Period"), this thousand year period, is an unfortunate historical concept because it combines two historical periods that really should be sharply distinguished: the Early Middle Ages which really was a period of darkness and s...

@walshamite "...no health care unless you were well off, ...." Labour propaganda.

Thank you for uploading these Wanderung videos. Ich bin ein Amerikaner. Meine Vorfahren komm aus Schweiz, Kanton Baselland, in 1855. "Moeschinger von Häfelfingen". (Unser Nachname ist jetz "Messinger" richtig schreiben.) I have never been to Europe. I've found some pictures on the internet of Häf...
