Never understood the Japanese navy flinching when it came to fighting to the death when it would have made a difference!

Min 32:53, Dr Peter Pedersen: "all the (kamikaze) pilot had to do was take off, fly straight and level and dive straight into his target" EASY!!! PIECE OF CAKE!!!brbrWTF!!!!brbrThis "Doctor" doesn't know what his talking about A rather simplistic and light assessment, to say the least, when presenting the facts brbrI would like to see Dr Pedersen (hypothetically) in command of a Japanese fighter aircraft taking off "easily" from an unprepared and improvised airfield in a theater of war, flying "straight and level" in the middle of an air battle, then diving towards the target, in the middle of a hail of anti-aircraft artillery, crossfire, with turbulence generated by the detonation of the AAA warheads and then, if survives that, trying to hit a moving target (a naval ship) that is making evasive maneuvers EASY!!!brbrThese "academics" only knows the theory and talk with a superiority and certainty only provided by the ignorance of not knowing the practice

I always say imagine if Japan invaded Hawaii or instead just fought with Germany and didn't fight in Pacific only near homelands
Comment from : RYAN TRAVIS

Hmm Sounds like another case of terrible British leadership…again Did Mount Batten ever do anything of worthwhile note? Or did he just completely fail all the time Full disclosure; I say this as a biased Canadian with family ties to the Ontario regions where the bulk forces of the Dieppe raid came from
Comment from : dogmatix

One of the most effective "small weapons" that were used against paratroopers in Crete in 1941 was a makeshift one It used a long wooden pole, anything really above 2 meters long would do, with a kind of knife, ANY kind of knife, tied to its "business end" Scores of hapless paras were introduced to the fabled Cretan hospitality when they were skewered by these "weapons", many of which were wielded by local men AND women defending their homes brbrEven today, ANZACs that fell during the Battle of Crete are specially honored in the military cemetaries on the island Cretans will never forget those who fought here, especially those who came from half a world away, probably not even knowing the island existed, to die here This is a debt that can never be repaidbrbrNote 1: Freiberg was either an idiot or totally incompetent To have intelligence early and not act on it is nothing short of criminalbrbrNote 2: Charles Upham won his second Victoria Cross (the only combatant to do so in the decoration's history) for actions conducted in Crete
Comment from : MaegnasMw

Your accuracy leaves something to be desired You said it was two years before another 1000 bomber raid on Hamburg when in fact it was 13 months later in july 1943 Also it would be nice if you gave the year and not just the month But don't get me wrong I have learned much that I have always wondered about
Comment from : John Wright

I like how there's a "competition" between the two piece movers in the "war room" I wish the commercials and the film were at the same volume I have to turn it up all the way for the show and get blasted with ads

Comment from : MM Sizzlak

The biggest counter attack since normandy was in the Arden forest after those thousand bomber raid, the bombing was killing hundreds of thousands of civilians but it wasn't stopping the army from fighting and production of armaments was at it's highest during that time,in short it never worked
Comment from : fabio sunspot

All japanese outside Japan was never ment to return home unless they won the war, they were there to fight to the death

One huge Allied loss: the Battle of the Straits of Messina This was when the British and American navies cut off the German forces in Sardinia, destroying them as they tried to escape to the Italian mainlandbrIt didn't happen Huge victory for the Germans
Comment from : David Lloyd-Jones

All of this is part of the residual evil of Versailles The Western Powers giving Germany's conquests in China to the Japanese as an incipient Empire was both madness and great evilbrWar in the Pacific, indeed Japan's whole adventure in European-style imperialism, was totally unnecessary -- but fair pay-back for the loons Wilson, Lloyd George and worst of all Georges Clemenceau

Nice historical videowhen populations livings under totalitarian authoritiesinnocence civilian centres are not causing official authority's decrease morale!!!because citizens spirituality has not any prices inside Totalitarian elite minds but bombarding of industry centres and strategic positions brings positive result
Comment from : Andreas Leonardo

The war has become a world war, when Brits have promised to protect Poland Which they didnt The poles then went to UK, and had the most successfull Squadron of Battle of Britain Fought at Tobruk, conquered Monte Cassino, fought at Arnhem, and many other places After war, they were given to Stalin, and were not even allowed to march in the Victory parade And now Poles in the UK are commonly threated or attacked just because they are Polish, while at the same time UK is giving moral lessons to the Eastern Europe about its racism

Comment from : Zie SpiralOut

Bombing civilian centers are not creating lack of Morale of peoples or decreasing morale and Political men are knowing that but they are lies in their speaking because all authorities before wars starting they are changing or leaving gradually their humanity ,Justice ,people serving processes to more vicious ,corrupted behaviors &,directing most resources to wards official Forces under slogan (Wars requirements ) and authorities becoming aggressive Nationalist Dictators so peoples are frightening from their own government and exchanging bombing between fighters at same time every civilian centers bombing has secret & hiding aims far from Morale issue
Comment from : Mohammed Says Rashid

The titles of this series are misleading They don't match the episodes they cover Plus the mish mash of battles and dates that range all over the world and all over the war timeline make this confusing and almost nonsensical Seems very poorly organized It's too bad because most of the individual episodes are done well Whoever concocted the idea of scrambling them into this tangled mess of episodes blew it! I can't watch any more of these Battles Won and Lost - they're making me angry!

Comment from : John Smith

Churchill demanded the campaign in Greece For romantic reasons (the home of democracy) Which then enabled Rommel to land and spend a few years in a master-general illusion Erwin's secret to mastery was the US diplomatic code book Winston was a disaster as a strategist balanced by being less so in rear-echelon matters (Radar, Mulberry, wooing FDR) Dakar etc were no-brainer decisions Crete was sacrificed to protect Ultra

How can you skip Midway when talking about battles that turned the tide of the Pacific War ? brWithout the victory there America would still be in defense of not only Pearl Harbor, Alaska, but also the entire West Coast

This video has some merit, but it is such a disorganized mish-mash that the good commentary is wasted The two guys, table, and cardboard symbols are a total waste as well

WAaaaaaaaaaYYYYY too many commercials Every 30 sevonds
Comment from : Glenn Tompkins

This is nonsense Civilians were bombed because they were located near the war production factories that they worked in These were not to a great extent innocent civilians, they were civilians who were building bombs, Gans, bomber’s, tanks, etc it would be absolutely impossible in any modern at the time city to bomb the factories without bombing the workers of those factories Certainly they were innocent civilians killed in mass But to say that serious war planners on either side were counting mostly on the demoralization of citizens it’s nonsense
Comment from : DaveT

This series is a grand idea but borders annoyance with wave after wave of ad's
Comment from : NYCamper62

Bombing did influence events Germany withdrew masses of tank killing 88's from Russia to use as flak guns, also masses of fighters 28 millon Russians were killed as against about 300,000 german civilians? The claim of this documentary bombing did not influence wider events is false In point of fact, a lie Point is to avoid war as modern war is an exchange of horrors Clearly those of the Axis were on a scale and number beyond anything the Allies committed against the horrors of fascism Bombing did become more accurate as the war went on Agsin this lie we were alone We were never alone Not only the commonwealth but the Empire was with us The Greeks fought the Italians and Germans before and adter defeat as did the Norwegians whilst many French as other fought behind the lines, Yet this childish lie is repeated by so-called historians You lot of liars you
Comment from : peter dollins

I don't mind themthe movements on the game board gives a simplified version of what's being described - archival vision can't do that, and static maps are a little old fashioned Also, the films aren't just for knowledgable folk like many of us We surely want to encourage younger people to understand this important part of our history

Hollywood should make a movie about what happened at Guadalcanal It would help with their influence in the Pacific over the Chinese at this time But they would want to include the coast watchers and the island natives who helped a lot during the battle This documentary doesn't mention their contributions at all

REMOVE THE DEDES!! They are so unnecessary and make watching this kinda cringe
Comment from : CockroachB

This series is what I would call "easy watching" (like an easy listening music) - not much to do with REAL history, details omitted and often false, two actors take money for cheap PC animation, (although they do add some human spirit) - I like it, but from a history point of view these films are about nothing good for High schools? I'm not so sure

Comment from : KDPP / PMPDA Channel

My dad was a Marine Raider, 1st Marine Division He was in the first wave at Guadalcanal He'd never talk about his experiences in the war, which is par for the course After his death, I found a shoebox filled with medals, ribbons, and pictures, including a Purple Heart and Silver Star with cluster I saw one picture of my dad after he was evacuated in November, and I almost didn't recognize him He was always built like a tank, but it looked like he lost close to 100 pounds He had bouts of malaria for over 20 years At my dad's funeral, one of his war buddies came up to me and said, "You know, your dad was a real hero" He was always this little girl's hero, so it came as no surprise I miss him every day
Comment from : catbyte 06

NO! There was no great arguments in the Allied halls of power in 1942 about what was the dominant theater THAT was COMPLETELY settled around Christmas 1941 in DC by Churchill & FDR Why do they dredge up idiots to babble nonsense on this video?

The tide turns of the WW2 began when the British Army under General Bernhard L Montgomery ousted the Italians and Germans from North Africa in June through July 1940 Afterwards the British Army defeated the Japanese in Myanmar and India The U S Army defeated the Japanese in the Guadalcanal campaign and the Russians under Generalissmo of Josef Stalin defeated the Germans in the Battle of Stalingrad, Leningrad, and Moscow in the USSR

Comment from : Chris King

Seconding Mr Sewell's statement that the commentary on Leyte is all wrong Your description of Kurita's retreat off Samar is incomprehensible without describing the ferocious counterattack by the hopelessly outgunned Taffy 3 Kurita, already exhausted by losing his flagship Atago in the Sibuyan, expected to see carriers and battleships He saw escort carriers and thought they were fleet carriers The ferocious, suicidal counter attack by Taffy 3's "Small boys"--destroyers Johnston, Hoel, and Heerman, and DE Samuel B Roberts--made Kurita think he saw battleships The "small boys" and the vigorous counterattack by the air crews of Taffies 1, 3, and 3 convinced Kurita that he was up against a much stronger force than he actually was

Comment from : Maximus Decimus meridious

Let me guess, the people writing this are part of the public relations office for Vandergrift and Uncle Sam's Misguided Children! or just poor historical researchersbrbrbrThe US Army XIV Corps formed in December 1942 under the command of US Army General Alexander "Sandy" Patch consisted of one Marine Division (the 2nd) and two US Army Divisions, including the Americal NOT three Marine Divisions as described here at 11:02!brbrbrThe 164th Infantry Regiment of the Americal landed on Guadalcanal on 13 October 1942 ahead of its brother regiments, as emergency reinforcement for the 1st Marine Division The Regiment was the first US Army unit to engage in offensive action during World War II as part of the Battle of Guadalcanal Between 24 and 27 October, elements of the regiment withstood repeated assaults from Japanese battalions and inflicted some two thousand enemy casualties; the 164th also supported and participated in Marine attacks The First Marine Division's commander, Major General A A Vandegrift, was so impressed by the soldiers' stand that he issued a unit commendation to the regiment for having demonstrated "an overwhelming superiority over the enemy" In addition, General Vandegrift took the unusual step of awarding Lt Colonel Robert Hall, commander of the 3rd Battalion, 164th, with the Navy Cross for his role in these battles The 164th was then occasionally referred to as the '164th Marines' due to their special relationship with the Marines on Guadalcanal brbrbrbrNever forget
Comment from : Joe Montague

Why no mention that Germany began the policy of bombing civilian targets with the Blitz? Crudely speaking, Britain served up to Germany what they had dished out to London - only the RAF was by this time so superior that it was able to drop as many bombs as they wanted, so the damage was far worse I'm sure if the Luftwaffe had had control of the skies above Britain, they would have reduced all Britain's cities to ruins

Comment from : Ne mo

Many historians now say bombing campaign against Germany was wildly successful, just not in the way intended It forced Germans to pull pretty much all their fighters back to defend Germany, which gave Brit, Americans, Russians complete air superiority over the battlefields Many estimate at least an extra year, if not more, plus many more tens of thousands of troops dead had they not had that air superiority For example, the number of days it took for German tank reserves to get to Normandy after D-Day
