  My great grandfather was captured at Tobruk. He was South African. He was taken to a POW camp in Italy. But when Italy swapped sides. Took a chance and ran before the Germans could occupy the camp. Walked nine months to reach rome and made it with his two buddies

  &quot;Why use giant 200mm naval guns to take down a ship when a tin can does the job perfectly&quot;

  Job Maseko was a great soldier to serve the South African 2nd Infantry Division!<br>Making a bomb out of a tin can and filled it with cordite and causing a freighter to sink with it (and a little help with dry straw, gasoline and other explosive devises)!<br>It&apos;s so sad that he died early because of an accident at a train station as a loyal police officer.<br>He will be always remembered! Thank you Yarnhub for making yet another great animation of a great story!<br>Keep it up!

  Maseko suffered normally the same fate as indigenous people whom served in the Canadian army during WW2. The soldiers in all services of color or race other than white, never received or compensated for their actions. It&apos;s a story that&apos;s told time and time again. Compare the 2 Canadians, Sgt. Tommy Prince, and Sgt. Léo Major. Same rank, but treated differently because Tommy wasn&apos;t white. I&apos;m sorry to hear how Maseko was treated. Sadly, his story is not unique. But I am happy to hear of his actions during the war, and how it had actually helped the allied effort. It&apos;s about time Maseko&apos;s family to get recognition and compensation he should have been justly deserved.

  Don’t know if anybody said so already, but that’s how you open a “can of whoop-ass!”

  My global studies (history) teacher walked up to me and saw me watching this. I showed him the title, gave a brief summary, and he nodded twice. I’m glad you uploaded during my history class, Yarnhub!

  So sad he received so little for his service.

  Everyone always comments on how the animations get better with each video (and rightly so, because they do) but I&apos;d just like to say how the narration and research continues to get better and better also! Always a solid effort Yarnhub! 👌
