  • thank you all 

  • WHY EVERY EPISODE FINISH UNFINISHED IN THE HALF STORY OMG?

  • @askjiir Rommel had excellent tank repair units, and they were often kind enough to spare a bit of water or a blanket for a wounded Brit soldier. But units have to have parts, and Hitler was obsessed with production numbers, so there was always a shortage of parts. Then throw in the failure of the germans to standardize: Example- over 100 different kinds of trucks were used to support their campaign in USSR.

  • @randy95023 you are totally right. Rommel in Africa had more tanks in his yard, awaiting repairs, than in his active pool... At some point he had around 100 operational tanks with some 250-300 tanks waiting repair...german logistics FAIL.

  • @josiahn1 Furthermore, german logistics were very complicated, mainly because of multiple variations of the same model. You could not take a transmission for example from a pz IV D and put it into a pz IV G. Their tanks were not standardized, as allied ones.

  • @askjiir, the Germans had a severe problem with lacking spare parts, as mentioned, but further, they did not have nearly as many trained mechanics as the allies, especially the US. The european society had not be as mobilized on the civil side of things before the war.

  • @randy95023

    Germans were NOT inept in tank recovery you imbecile!

    It was a vital issue for them, and they recovered thousand of machines!

  • Fantastic!
