    Glad to see the images are not haphazard WWII assortments and the voice is human.  Good work, nicely done.

    This is a well researched video, approached from a unique angle, with incredible historical footage accompanied by a HUMAN narration. It is diamond standard YouTube.

    This channel is becoming a legit and seriously class A history class. &nbsp;I have a lot of respect for creators that do their own narration, and even more when it&apos;s <b>good</b> narration. &nbsp;Your research was clearly quite thorough and you raise the bar a bit more with every group of videos you do. &nbsp;I think you should consider making this part 2 and the first one about when Allied soldiers faced the Waffen SS part 1. &nbsp;I think the viewer / history learner can get more out of these from watching them together and seeing some of the differences. &nbsp;One example being that there was so much outrage about the Malmedy &apos;massacre&apos; on the western front, and on the eastern front that&apos;s just breakfast. &nbsp;You&apos;re right to distinguish them, for several reasons, and I think all of us here know why that is. &nbsp;Most excellent work as always. &nbsp;Cheers.

    A wise man once told me &quot;Don&apos;t go looking for war, because you might just find it&quot;. He was born in 1924 and he went to the Pacific theatre (Marines).

    Always appreciate the effort you put into these, much more comprehensive for me being able to listen opposed to reading first hand. (Although that is pleasurable I just don’t retain what I read well) so thank you.

    Imagine being in the SS after a couple of weeks of Barbarossa. After all the wins . You would be buzzing.

    Excellent video again, I&apos;m a historian specialized in WWI, and your use of sources, images and your narration is superb!

    The book about Erwin Bartman is absolutely incredible I highly recommend reading it or listening to it. It’s available on audible
