  • If you can't take pictures of the battleground aftermath, it probably means you lost the fight.

    • @KarlNapf

      Agreed.Unfortunatley back then neither side put an awful lot of value on human life and troops were often blindly sent in.

    • @Zeb At the end of the war it was determined that the Canadians were used a lot by the English/American high commands as ememy detectors. "Let's just see how strong old Jerry is on this beach or town... Send in the Canucks! Oooops, sorry guys." We were one of the UK's colonial armies then but at least we are our own now.

  • It's funny that everytime there is a war somewhere in the world we all believe that what the enemy watches is just propaganda, and maybe it is. But know this... we are fed the same type of BS here and we buy it! What propaganda have we been served and took it as truth? Powell at the UN talking about WMD's in Iraq is just one example.

  • The allied announcer appears to have understated losses a wee bit.

  • the subtitels of the wochenschau are at times translated false. shame on the translators.

    ps: this time the german propaganda was more close to the truth. no wonder, they won the battle.

    • @kafr I saw some mistakes at the start with translating "besonderes jager" as 400 fighters and also the part dealing with the parading prisoners, wich part you think is wrong ?

    • @Panzerknacker2

      see my other post on top. and yes, the funny thing is the narrator doesnt speak about "400" fighters but just talks about especially strong fighter contingents (dunno the correct word for it, sorry)

  • In Total war, morale is critical. At this point the UK had taken a beating and any good news was gold. The raid really was just a public show to boost spirits, failure or not the military had to be seen to be hitting back.

  • Notice how much more one-sided and self-serving the German account was. Ironic, given how later the Jerrys had their asses handed to them and their country carved up.
