In February 1943, Hitler flew to the HQ of Army Group South on the Eastern Front for critical meetings. Little did he realise that Soviet tanks had broken through and were racing for the airfield where he was about to board his plane to leave.

@RenneDanjoule 3 года назад

"The term anarchist struck special fear in the hearts of those who were building the new industrial states of the late nineteenth century, for anarchists identified the centralized state itself as the enemy. For the same reason anarchism provided a banner of new hope to a generation in France that had become disillusioned with politics : first by a decade of republican repression after the Commune and then by the decision of the rival Blanquists to support the right-wing challenge to the Third Republic of General Boulanger "in the hope that it was the prelude to a great revolutionary crisis." Thus began the fateful tendency of putschist revolutionaries on the Left to see in a right wing challenge to liberal republican authority a tactically useful stage in preparing for their own social revolution. This thinking proved successful for Lenin, who was to view Kornilov's rising against Kerensky's government in September 1917 as a "gun rest" for his own revolutionary rifle. The same thinking by German Communists in 1933 was to have disastrous consequences, when Hitler was seen as a transitory Kornilov tactically useful for destroying the Weimar Republic."-James H Billington

But Mark have tendency to believe Nazi Goebbels bullshiteria (like Tiger's kill ratio which isn't mathematically possible, or Wittmann destroying 77 tanks with 40 rounds of ammo, only like 15 of which got tunsten warhead ....... while his death was perfect example of being a pathetic tank commander, leading whole platoon to obvious trap). And this video is literally proof of that .... no way there was not a single tank or AT gun protecting Hitler's planned arrival. And they still had to run away with shitted pants from situation (22 T-34's) which would (according to Goebbels propaganda) be solved by any SS troop with slingshot. So, yeah. Mark Felton has the best history channel .... but sometimes you need to ignore mind-boggling Nazi propaganda Mark fails to recognize.

@davidluck1678 2 года назад

the Reds also came close to bagging Heydrich around about September 1941. The death-dealing, death-seeking SD head, a competent pilot, had joined a fighter unit on the Eastern front c. July and flown some 70 combat missions....and was eventually shot down behind Russian lines. Over the course of several days, he managed to walk back - with several narrow escapes on the way - to German-held territory. When Hitler found out about Heydrich's combat aerial escapades, he grounded him.

The thing is Hitler was even useful for Soviets as the talentless warlord, especially after the Stalingrad catastrophe. I'm afraid to imagine there was someone else instead of Hitler with his risky games. It's said Comintern agents prepared assassination attempt with a lot of grenades during another Hitler's performance but were stopped from Moscow.
