SUBSCRIBE TO EXCELLENT WORLD WAR II VIDEOS

Very interesting footage from Die Deutsche Wochenschau in 1944. Most aspects of World War II from the German point of view are covered. Most scenes are of genuine combat in the Soviet Union, Italy, the Atlantic and the Western Front. Rare footage of Waffen SS, Panzer troops and Panzer Grenadiers, Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine and the common German people are filmed in these extraordinary propaganda films.

Die Deutsche Wochenschau (The German Newsreel) was the sole series of German newsreels from 1940 until the end of World War II. It was usually narrated by Harry Giese (1903-1991).

Part 1 is 1:12:00 in duration and is followed by 3 succeeding episodes.

@TheCatsmeatman By this time they were already desperate. Everyone around Hitler knew that the defeat was a question of months. Even injured but experienced pilots were obliged to fight (we can see also children posing like soldiers in the footage). Only Hitler and a few criminals (perhaps being afraid to face international courts) around him wanted to keep fighting.

Despite the hysterical propaganda the germans at this point were beginning to become increasingly desperate. Germany had never before won a 2 front war and this war was becomming increasly bitter. One could say that the way the germans ended up was much better than they deserved.
