    You seem to be producing these high quality essays on every forgotten campaign of the Great War. I don&apos;t know how you do it; whether you are a solo creator or if you have a team, but whatever the case, I am impressed!<br>Your assessment of Enver Pasha was right on the money. He belongs to that special Circle of Slaughter, populated with such luminaries as Haig, Cadorna, von Holtzendorff, Nivelle and Grand Duke Nicky. Such a waste of soldiers for an army that needed every single man. And really, for nothing. I doubt any German general would have allowed that campaign to go forward if they had been shown such a ridiculous scheme.<br>Great job on the video. You just keep getting better!

    I&apos;ve taken a little looksy at this campaign. It seems the Turks did in more of their own troops than the Russians. Thanks again for your videos. They are the best ones covering the human element in the wasteland called YouTube. Cheers from Tennessee

    Have you ever heard a more stupid order when marching into the mountains ? Everyone throw away your overcoat it&apos;s going to be faster...

    This little known offensive was absolutely brutal, and criminally incompetent leadership caused the awful deaths of so many thousands of young men. Horrifying!

    The fact you would even try that in that type of weather without correct equipment is beyond stupid . Poor souls that were effectively murdered by own commanders

    In the future I would love to see you cover WW1 in Asia! Tsingtao, Papua New Guinea, etc.

    Thanks, Fin for these videos on the forgotten fronts. Didn’t know how hardcore these fronts were.

    Another unknown front (to me) but certified banger. So many stories, from what was truly a World War, need to be told.<br><br>I’d love an East African campaign video or Germany’s general war against the Allies on that continent! Nevertheless, keep up the great work!
