  • It's weird thinking that these elderly Frenchmen might have been WWI veterans, fighting in the same conditions and thinking "Now this is the battle I'm used to when I was younger" since there were a lot of forts in WWI. Heck, some of them might've even been from Verdun, fighting in fortresses like Vaux or Douaumont. P.S: I wonder how the ghost of the lord who made this castle would've felt, when the walls managed to withstand modern weaponry.

    • СС части штурмовавшие замок были подразделением панцергренадерской дивизии СС Гетц фон Берлихинген. Да той самой которая воевала с Американцами с самого начала с Нормандии, американцы их прозвали дивизия Железный кулак 👊 потому что их не удавалось полностью разбить солдаты этой части были в основном из заграничных немцев и особо дерзко и стоически сражались чем другие части нацистов, ведь по сути это были солдаты без родины, их родиной был только нацистский режим, кто то из них был из югославии румынии из обратных переселенцев из сша из эльзаца ну так если по имени дивизии подумать то барон фон Берлихинген возглавлял разбойничьи отряды и управлял крестьянской войной и имел наглость выступить против самого европейского императора кайзера священной римской империи. Это качество солдат дивизии признал однажды даже Паттон. Практически уничтоженные многочисленной богатой американской армией они солдаты дивизии остатки уходили и снова собирались чтобы дать бой в отличие от потрепанных от многолетней аойны солдат вермахта мечтавших вдруг как то увидеть мельком свою семью и солдат 12й дивизии отмороженных юнцов они были довольно стойкой частью врага. Чтобы история была полной почитай

    • Don't forget that two of the French were Maurice Gamelin and Maxime Weygand, who where the two head of staff of the French army during the fall of france, Édouard daladier who was the former President du conseil fought all the ww1 and earn the Légion d'Honneur and 4 army citations for his action and there were also a sister of General de Gaulle who was there for resistance action, so seeing a tank and seven soldiers to save them it's not really impressive

    • @Timothy Cedrone That happened one fucking time hey ? French had poor leadership only during ww2. Algeria was well fought, Indochina too. You must know that Americans lost Vietnam due to politics, not military reasons. So you based your whole fucking statement about France based on 1940 campaign. I can give you many battles of ww2 where the French were well commanded. Enough battles to make you stop saying bullshit about French soldiers

  • Could use more detail on the background and the journey to the castle. I read the book, and this video has no major errors that I noticed, so good job on that. Also, I would like to point out the VIP's weren't incompetent with firearms, all or most of the VIPs that participated in the defense had former military experience. In fact, three were known by their military titles: General Maxime Weygand, Colonel Francois De LA Roque, and General Maurice Gameline. Both prime ministers Paul Reynaud and Eduard Daladier had military experience, as did Jean Borotra. Bit of an understatement when you called Gangl a "decorated officer," he had the Iron Cross, 1st and 2nd Class, and the German Cross in Gold, which you can only get if you have the Iron Cross, 1st and 2nd class. Good video, historically accurate, but could use more detail in some areas, I would love to see a remake.
