The huge Krupp tank factory is destroyed as are hundreds of partially finished tanks on the assembly line. The rail center, Nuremberg, once the seat of Nazi culture, is now a dead city. The huge rallying stadium serves as a parade ground for Yank troops who blast a surmounting stone swastika to bits - then replace it with the Stars and Stripes." scenes of ruins of Krupp factory, tanks, cities, "none reflects greater destruction than Nuremberg" where U.S. flag hides swatstika in stadium, then blown up, military review;

Swastika go boom

On the USS Comfort, six of those that were killed were Army nurses... military nurses were the unsung heroes of WWII.

There was absolutely NO need to bomb and ruin the wonders of German Architecture

American politicans always ruin the other world

@11Mbanderafalsa actually we DOMINATED Germany.

[Sahadi420]

@ThingsToMakeAnDo Your absolutely right. Hell, MOST Germans didn't agree with Hitler. But saying something meant death. This is why I don't get the "world hatred" of the USA going to Iraq to take care of Saddam. It's almost comical how similar the two were.

happy V-E day guys :')

Here is the real Madness ...Somewhere- in a City, Village or district -

There was an innocent man, woman, Child, who wanted nothing of the war

and somewhere on the other side in some City , Village ,District ...

There was the same

Hail comrade @spiritman1981,

Such was the hatred against peace-loving Nazis. The Americans fought a war for the Jewry and attacked innocent Germany.

Sieg Heil!
