Hi, thanks for visiting my channel. :) I sincerely hope that you enjoy some of my videos, for me it is great fun to make the stuff. My channel is 100% non-commercial.
My hobby is to make war related internet videos, but also doing videos on nature adventures .
I enjoy to do interviews with WW2 veterans, making WW2 video slide shows and to produce fictional/historical internet movies using compositing methods by integrating images obtained from different media, especially green screened filming.
Personally one of my best moments was the making of an "official" preview movie for Maddox Games on the new "Cliffs of Dover IL-2 Sturmovik" flight simulator.
Total Wehrmacht casualties through April 30, 1945 amounted to 11,135,500, including 6,035,000 wounded. Of these, nearly 9,000,000 fell in the East. Casualties of the German armed forces at the end of the war totaled 13,488,000 (75% of the mobilized forces and 46% of the male population of Germany in 1939). Of these, 10,758,000 fell or were taken prisoner in the East. Today, the austere inscription "dead in the East" carved on countless thousands of tombstones in scores of German cemeteries serve as mute witnesses to the carnage in the East, where the will and strength of the Wehrmacht perished. "When Titans Clashed" David M. Glantz In Germany there were 6.9 million deaths; 5.3 million were military. The Russians killed some 4.7 million German fighters, including 474,967 who died in Soviet captivity; They also killed a very high number of civilians. For their part, the Western Allies killed nearly half a million German soldiers and there were more than two hundred thousand civilian victims of air raids.[26] Russia lost twenty-seven million people; China, at a minimum of fifteen million "All Hell Let Loose" Max Hastings
My Koning en Skepper, die gemors van oorlog staar ons nou weer in die gesig. As dit U wil is, asb maak ons dapper en sterk soos ons voor vaders. Wees ons korrel en ons staaf. Sonder U o Vader, sal ons nie kan voor en toe gaan nie. Asb vergewe ons vir wat ons moet doen om te oorleef. Alle eer en lof tot U o Vader. Ek vra en bid dit in die naam van U enige gebore Seun. Jesus / Yahshua die Messiah. Amen.
As we witness in the modern world how these events unfold, you came to realise nothing changed. The American, British and zionist elites are continuing their lies to start wars, to enrich the minority wealthy class and wrecking soveirignity countries lives and identities. Boer volk, we need to awaken and realise that our enemies are those from the west.
I say BRAVO, and I got a little choked up watching....they were AWSOME people...I would have fought along with them. I hold malice in my heart towards Britain for what they did to India, and this absolutely disgusting war. in deep space 9, demar says..." RESIST, RESIST TODAY, RESIST TOMORROW, RESIST UNTIL THE LAST DOMINION SOLDIER HAS BEEN DRIVEN FROM OUR SOIL. I CALL UPON YOU THE CITIZENS, RISE UP! AS A PEOPLE, NUTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IF WE STAND TOGETHER " ....I feel the same about the poor souls that British azzholez crushed and forced out or destroyed their hard earned way of life....BRITAIN SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THE MIRE MENTIONING OF THIS OR INDIA...there are more disgusting colonial stories, but for now, Britain....HAK MIR NISHT KEYN TSCHAYNIK........
And yet I see them differently... racists, land thieves in their own right, misogynist, they put their ego and fear of losing control ahead of their family's lives and well being, very cruel to the blacks. Courage, yes. I respect that.
Due to politics, Warsaw uprising was mercilessly crushed. They asked for help repeatedly, and received negligible minimal help. Thats not the fault of these brave pilots and men who helped when allowed to do so.
It must have been strange to be a child in Stalingrad, growing up in the Soviet Union, and then have it all collapse. Only to see Putin fail to re-create it in one lifetime. The front line in Ukraine is longer than the western front in WW1.
Very unsung aircraft. Bore the brunt of the RAF 's bombing campaign until the four engined heavies came into service Able to take immense damage a reliable workhorse
the RN philosphy was correct-they knew that their carriers would be attacked by planes carrying at least 1000lb bombs therefore the flight deck needed to be armoured-the rn never lost an illustrious class. both the imdomitable and the illustrious were dive bombed by stukas and survived-imdomiatble al;so survived kamakaze hits.Maybe a 2000lb armoured bomb might have penetrated to the hangar deck but thas speculation
Tinus, this is excellent, thank you! Glad you added in the farmhouses being blown up and the women and children being transported to the death camps. My good friend in the 70's was Marius le Roux. His Dad was curator of the Cape Town castle. Ek is 'n Scot and het baie jare op die Oos Transvaalse myne gewerk. Dankie!
Fascinating interview. Thank you for publishing it. I was brought here after doing some research on the film: “In Which We Serve” (The UK 1942) Duration 01.49.28 Objective truth is vital for understanding history.
Peter Stuyvesant , founder of new Holland New York, knew better. He allowed the new tax collectors to take over and thrived in business. The boers ruled for a few decades here . They thrived in adultery and blasphemy. Their land has been given unto the hands of those who hate them. Just as it is written. Lived with the boer for 25 years. Heads of families speak solemnly of God only when filling up their bellies. Not once have I heard them speaking of fornication law or how God hates divorce. After all , if you love God with all your heart ( 1st comandment) why is there space and crave for adultery and divorce?
Big Respect to the Boer Afrikaaner from AOTEAROA MAORI... You fought the British just like the Irish... For that MAORI will never, ever forget that...YES...CHUUUUURRRRR...Ae.
This biography is an excellent read. I have an early edition print. Another good German fighter pilot biography is written by Peter Henn who flew Me 109 called Yellow 2. Sorry I forget what it was called.
Staan in die poort en roep uit die Woord. Gaan heeltemal oorboord en breek met oorgawe die Aparte Brood. Sodat die volke en nasies kan hoor, dat die Boervolk aan God behoort. Ja, roep uit die Heilige Aparte Woord en gaan daarmee uitermatig groot. Net soos wat dit van alle ewigheid af nog altyd hoort. Slaan daarom met die banvloek die vyand genadeloos dood. Maar wees lojaal en getrou aan jou eie suiwer soort. Kyk net na die Jood, in die groot verwoesting gesaai deur koeël en lood. Daar tref hulle sonder genade hul vyand met die dood. Deur soveel geslagte heen, kom hulle nog altyd weg met massamoord. Maar daarmee gaan die kerk nog altyd akkoord. As die kamma uitverkore volk, word die gruwel Jood, in die groot leuen tot uitverkiesing vergroot. Maar binnekort word hierdie addergeslag oor die ewige afgrond gestoot. So kom nou o, kinders van God, begin om die hare te kloof. Lank genoeg het julle, jul vir 'n Sataniese Joodse eenwêreldorde afgesloof. Ook jy, o, Suid-Afrika, is deur die Jood van jou goud, diamante en ander rykdomme beroof. Aan al jou minerale en hulpbronne het hulle skaamteloos gesoog. Lig daarom o, Boer nou hoog jou hoof. Span jou boog en neem in wraak 'n oog om 'n oog. Staan o, Boer in die Poort en roep uit God se Waarheidswoord. p.s. Abba Vader het gepraat & ons moet luister. Amen
Memories and history faded, and a nation's forever indebted to this hero men, women, and children making the ultimate sacrifice. We are indebted!!! Therefore proud we stand before God alimight.
Und von der heutigen Jugend werden diese netten Kerle, von denen die wenigsten Soldat sein wollten, als „Nazi“ abgetan. Wie ehrlos, dumm und verlogen die Menschen doch geworden sind. Anstatt daß deren Schicksal als Pflicht für uns gelten sollte, einen Staat in Ordnung und im Gleichgewicht zu halten!
