Notice at all of those French people waving American flags! They helped America gain its freedom hundreds of years earlier, we were able to help them regain their freedom hundreds of years later. Today, our nations both have large parts of our populations that are devoid of these facts, unthankful for each other's contributions to their current freedoms and as thus choose to hate over petty political issues instead embracing our historical bonds of friendship.

I was born in 1957. Scary to think just one dozen years after the war. Literally all my relatives served in the military. Great Uncle Nick was sergeant and landed at Normandy. My Dad turned 18 in Jun 45. He joined the Navy, trained as a LST driver and made it to California and was about to get over to the Pacific to support the invasion of Japan when the A bomb dropped and the war ended. His brother, my uncle was in the first US occupied forces that went into Japan. My grandfather who actually was born in Greece served in WW I. I was just old enough to start really wondering about the Vietnam war and the draft. Then that war ended. In 1982 I joined the Air Force. Left as a Captain

A fabulous book about being a child living the Burchgardens during the war and witnessed the American invasion. It's called "On Hitlers Mountain" by Irmgard A. Hunt. who lived there as a child under Nazi Germany. Her mother was pro Nazi, she tells about the education of children, joining the Hitler youth group etc. Three other eye witness books worth reading are "In the Garden of Beast" written by Eric Larson, and "The Nazi Officer's Wife", Edith Hahn Beer, who was a Jew that was able to pass as a German that married a German Officer even though he knew she was Jews. And "Berlin Diaries 1940 to 1945, by Marie Vassiltchikov a Lithuanian princess living and working in Berlin and working for the Nazi resistance. All of them are great insights of life in Nazi Germany. It's easy to find books on the war but good individual accounts aren't as easy to find. I praise for all four of this books.

@GreatPolishWingedHussars
@GreatPolishWingedHussars 3 года назад
Probably the best comment! It is another question whether they deserve this generosity! In my opinion, they should have been punished much more harder. Much, much, much... harder. But of course I'm biased because they murdered my grandpa and other relatives as well as the relatives of millions of other Poles. In addition, they ruined my country completely ... they are really lucky that Poland did not have the power to punish them. Oh, something else in the meantime, the western propaganda is spreading that they have been liberated and not defeated and occupied. In this link for example there is talk of the liberation of the German city of Munich April 30th 1945 and not of an occupation, which would be historically correct. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UHn5RyaW3kc.html If we contradict, then we Poles are the falsifiers of history.If we Poles also defend ourselves against the fact that Poles are accused of Holocaust, just because certain Poles have committed crimes and we say that the Nazination was actually responsible. Because without them there would have been no war and no genocide. It should not be forgotten that they committed not only one genocide, but various genocides. But this is in fact never remembered. Anyway, if we defend ourselves against such allegations, then we are the very evil history falsifiers. In the meantime they dare to speak of Polish death camps. If we then fight back, then it was a oversight. Strange, they never say accidentally Jews camps . They would not dare make such slip of the tongue. These liars!

Fieldmarshal von Keitel was signing his own death sentence at this surrender though he may not have realized it at the time. He'd eventually be tried and convicted for war crimes at the Nuremberg Trials and hung. Due to a miscalculation by the hangman, he underestimated Keitel's weight so when he dropped, the weighting was insufficient to kill him instantly by snapping his neck. Instead, Keitel ended up dangling for over a minute or more slowly and painfully strangulating. Also, this was the second formal surrender of the German army and state. The first was signed by Fieldmarshal Jodl at General Eisenhower's HQ further west, but Stalin wanted a final surrender in Berlin where Zhukov and the Russian High Command would take center stage. So the Americans and the British agreed to the second surrender.

Once, I had someone working for me whom I knew had political leanings far more "left" than I had. I had a verbal trap for him. I said, "I could never work for Pravda." He angrily asked, "Why?" I answered, "Because I don't anyone looking over my shoulder and telling me what to write and what to think." Bottom line is, whether it is Berlin in 1933 or Moscow anytime, dictatorships are wrong.

Keitel was faced with several documents that he personally signed, all precise evidence of war crimes he committed, at his trial at Nuremburg. He denied signing any of them....he was the shown the instrument of surrender of the German Armed Forces that he signed bearing his same signature...and could not deny signing it when he was shown the film of him signing it. He was found guilty of war crimes (one of which was his personal, signed order directing the secret state order, the Bullet Decree (Kugel Erlass) to murder recaptured escaped allied prisoners of war (POWs). He was found guilty by unanimous Nuremburg War Crimes Tribunal vote and hung. His body then cremated in one of the Nazis concentration camp crematoria, placed there by captured camp SS former guards. His ashes were then shovelled into the camps garbage pit....!

Note on Doenitz: Germany had a head of state (president) who appointed a head of government (chancellor). In 1932, President Hindenburg appointed Hitler as chancellor. Hindenburg died in 1935, and Hitler, who had assumed dictatorial powers in 1933, dictated that the office of President and Chancellor be combined in his person. He was then officially known as ‘Fuhrer’, his party title. This office was abolished on his death. He had decreed that the office then be split, with Doenitz becoming President, and Goebbels becoming Chancellor. Since Goebbels committed suicide the day after, he did not do much. That left Doenitz as President, the head of state. He then ran what was left of the government.

He saw the Soviets for what they were and wanted to conscript all German POWs who were fit to fight to join the US Army and push the Russians back to Moscow and level it. If we had, Ukraine wouldn’t be dealing with Putin’s nonsense right now. Oddly enough, Abraham Lincoln wanted to return all of the recently freed slaves back to Africa. He foresaw a future of Southern resentment and decades of turmoil if they remained in America to integrate into white society. His staff ultimately talked him out of it because doing so would’ve eliminated badly needed manpower that was necessary to rebuild the South and avoid a rekindling of armed conflict in the future. I often wonder what the makeup and attitude of the US would be today, had Lincoln stuck to his guns and followed through with his plans? I’m willing to wager that we might not have been bogged down with a welfare state and the crime rate would be half of what it currently is.

Instead, despite vastly more provocation, the Western Allied WWII leaders knew they should welcome Germany and Japan back and help rebuild them (Marshall Plan), stabilizing them toward a prosperous freedom loving postwar. Didn't happen automatically. My dad, other WWII vets and Dutch and Danish family friends we knew knew they had to/should be kind to Germans and Japanese for the future's sake, (e.g., for no WWIII), but they had to work at it some.
