Texas baby

It's also the sole remaining dreadnaught in the world

> >

they gangster leaned a ship???

Correction, the USS Texas deployed intentional counterflooding of the anti-torpedo blisters, enabling her to gain a 2 degree list. A 2 degree list wouldn't sink any dreadnought unless in rare circumstances. The anti-torpedo blisters aren't technically part of the hull, so she didn't flood herself either. The USS Texas didn't have enough gun range, since dreadnoughts of this era didn't have as much gun elevation compared to their treaty era or post treaty counterparts. Counterflooding: Intentional flooding of a ship to usually counteract a list of the ship, or to fill a magazine to prevent it from detonating Anti-torpedo blisters: Bulges on the side of a ship, used to prematurely detonate torpedoes outside of the actual hull List: When a ship leans to a certain side, too much list and a ship will capsize or flip

@@blitzy3244 A common misconception. The US knew an attack was coming some days prior, but they didn't think it was Pearl Harbor, nor did they know when the attack was coming. They thought the attack would come at Wake, Midway, or the Philippines which did get attacked. American battleplanning didn't know that they would attack Pearl Harbor.

run,

and filled him with a terrible resolve

also the USSR finishing 80% of german troops KIA/MIA, fighting germany+italy+romania+(austria)+bulgaria+soldiers/volunteers from occupied countries+nazi-adjacent finland in parallel while the US bombed cities after realizing that factories had AA, which, surprise, actually increased german morale. they decreased Red Army casualties, but didn’t decide the war. the lend lease of all nations to the ussr was 4% in total war production and saved lifes, but not the outcome of the war. and then you landed when the ussr was like a solid year in retreat, achieving no territorial gains or victories after the battle of Kursk ended 1943. like army size/strength was comparable, but US was very cowardly, assuming they wanted to fight the nazis instead of allying with them against the USSR if their convois and harbor weren’t attacked

@@gonozal8_962 You forget the Pacific Theatre and the fact the U.S. still cared for their own soldiers, meanwhile the USSR lost 1/4 of their army and their leader didn't even care they were dying (benefit of the doubt is that its four percent less than Germany I guess), USSR in total lost like 30 million people. Of course the U.S. also supported the Allies through the lend-lease act, of which of course Russia received 11 billion. This was a fifth of the total worth of the weapons, 3 fifths being granted to Britain, and of course both payed the U.S. back for significantly less (Russia payed 700 million). The act also could have been one of the key components allowing Russia to defeat Germany, though this isn't likely and more so just helped a lot.

@@averylongnameforabsolutely566 well like the chinese also get forgotten frequently about in the pacific theatre and the USSRs fears about a japanese invasion weren’t irrational either. like yes, the US did a contribution and saved lives, but it’s effort was still lower than the USSR‘s. the US having more factories at the beginning of WW2 than almost all other participants combined, even though stalin went to do sacrifices to build up a heavy industry fast, of course ment that they could use more equipment ("care about their lives"). the USSR killed 4x the nazis, who actually also occupied their factories and used better equipment and soldiers (because a 30yo is more useful at a dynamic front than in a bunker, significant portions of atlantic wall troops were foreign conscripted 60+ year olds, who of course can’t fight as much as 20-30s soldiers in their peak shape. most, like 90% of Tiger Is (Tiger II a bit more balanced) were used on the eastern front, although some of those 90% also fought in north africa, which the US didn’t join initially iirc. the most produced tank for both nations, m4 and T-34, had still 50k produced each. if you have 4 times as many tanks compared to the enemies‘ numbers and eg the italian troops were less motivated, it’s no surprise to suffer less casualties. they had better navy, though, the USSR couldn’t have pulled off normandy landing. in conclusion, the US had more industrial capacity than USSR and germany combined, yet still fought less/less intense, which allowed them to use support, like especially air (the USSR lacked aluminium) way, WAY more often, which having these capabilities ofc reduced US casualties. additionally, roads were better in western europe, which made transporting equipment easier or building combat airstrips in a non-muddy terrain. when your GI can call in CAS, instead of outnumbered aurcraft struggling to just negate air superiority, you ofc have better recon, and killing a target pinned in position by an airstike instead of having to charge with ground forces costs less lives. if the US had 500k shermans, they would have suffered even less casualties because like every platoon gets a tank assigned, but in 1944, the majority of casualties infliced on germany was more than half of germans casualties in the war already, so these bigger numbers wouldn’t equate to more KIAs/MIAs/wounded for german losses and thus not to more contribution in my playbook. there’s a WWII every day/week (I don’t remember) animation which visualizes pretty well that the germany was already loosing when the US landed. additionally, the factory bombing (which was later replaced by city bombing because factories had AA, but rather strengthened war support than deplete it+soldiers weren’t in the cities anymore) may have had some effects on denying supply to the eastern front, but I don’t know how that compares to derailing trains, eg by yugoslav or soviet partisans and the equipment destroyed by that. loaded trains w/o factory bombing would‘ve also compensated more equipment produced by more losses from sabotage to a part. I‘d be interested in the numbers of equipment lost due to factory bombing (US+UK) compared to sabotage (occupied countries), though. US lend lease and war participation was noticeable, yet the soviets participated that much that it’s almost more wrong in terms of inaccuracy as to say the did equal as to say the US did nothing in, at least for european theatre. due to also soviet fighting in manchuria, weakening the Japanese army a lot, and therefore also denyed them resources. if they waited and US didn’t occupy/bomb japan mainland makes the US AF and navy significant, but like not necessarily required to win WW2 (bcs japan would lack the eg steel to keep their superior navy running and having to shrink it), while the USSR not doing anything in WW2 would’ve been more significant. apart from human lives mobilized, the USSR not producing anything would have been significantly better for the axis than lend lease not happening at all a fifth of total weapons produced in WWII globally or by the US, a fifth of what were you referencing?

@@averylongnameforabsolutely566 the US didn't share a land border with the Axis, though, which is probably a major component as to why they didn't suffer as many losses compared to the USSR.

​@gonozal8_962 if the soviets weren't there america would've still carried. Don't forget the nuclear bomb

They weren't fighting for 'their truth,' they were fighting for their way of life, not merely their lives or livelihoods. This was no petty war over resources but about how human life was to be organized, spent, crushed, savored, sacrificed, employed, enslaved, elevated, or degraded. Those men toiled through fear and wrath to decide what world would become our and what world would be killed and buried. All that said, I fucking love these types of compositions of archival footage and remixed modern music. This one is particularly well done.

@David1Eskin Wars over resources are not “petty”. That is very dumb for someone to say who is completely dependent on those resources to not struggle to survive while constantly starving, freezing, and sick.
