Hitler was one of the greatest speakers of the 20th century. Too bad he was such an evil man.

The Jews were simply used by Hitler to stir up the German population. The Jews had money and were blamed for many of Germany's economic problems. Europe as a whole punished Germany for World War one. Some would say the punishment went too far and allowed for nationalists like Hitler to rise to power. Hitler used the punishing treaties signed after WW I as a tool to energize the German people for war.

The man will go down in history for killing 6-9 million Jews. Also, I believe some 40 million people died in World War Two.

The Germans eventually lost WWII because they fought on three fronts (Eastern, England, and North Africa). Eventually, the economic mights of the U.S. and Russia was too much for Germany. The Russians and Americans could simply produce more military weapons and soldiers. There was no way the Germans could hold off the Russians from the east and the Americans and Brits from the south and west.

By the end of the war, much of Germany's soldiers we either teens or old men. They were simply running out of fighting age men!

But I think Germany had systematic troops more than other country in those days.
They was very great a soldiers and have no parallel in history.

German soldiers were some of the finest battle field combatants in history. I will give them that. They mopped up the Americans in the first battles in North Africa. Then cam in Patton.



If you haven't seen the movie 'Patton' I highly recommend you see it.

A few weeks ago I saw a documentary about WWII. It wasn't actually a story on the war, but the story of finding four Korean soldiers dressed in Nazi uniforms among the captives of Normandy Beach. There's are pictures floating around the net, but I can't seem to find it. Anyone heard of this?

Just for the record here......

If the British hadn't got involved, then the Germans would have won the war. The Russian and American troops were suffering massive casualties and the Americans were on the verge of pulling out when we joined in.

At that time, the British Empire was a bigger super power than the USA.

(And where exactly would you lot have landed to refuel had we refused?)

I agree 100%. The British were that last hold out in the west. They help split the German forces. Hitler had to maintain forces in the west while he waged war in the east. If England fell and was occupied by Germany, there is absolutely no way D-day could have happened. The Brits deserve a large amount of the credit for the victory in WWII. Lucky for the Brits and the world Churchill took over for the spineless Chamberlain!

There was a write up on this in Stephen E. Ambrose's book D Day: June 6, 1944: The Climactic Battle of World War II . If I remember correctly these men were enslaved by the Japanese, captured by Soviets and moved to the front around Stalingrad. Then they were captured by Nazis and put in a unit in Normandy. Some of these units were mostly Poles and men from conquered countries who were forced to fight by the German officers and NCO's in the unit. It was a case of shoot at them or I'll shoot you right here. (Please remember it has been about 18 months since I read the book! ) Anyway when these men surrendered the intelligence officers who tried to interrogate them had no idea what language they were speaking. I wonder whatever happened to them.

I also have to wonder what effect this type of unit had on the outcome of the battle.

Yeah, I wish I could find a piece of this history somewhere on the internet. I think it's interesting.
