  Seeing the SS through the lens of management consultancy and learning organisations is fascinating and appalling in equal measure.

  The best show on WW2TV to date!<br>The original ideas Phil presented here only reinforce the contempt one should feel for this hydra-headed gang of cretins. They are beyond redemption after this.

  The SS, that is, the black and silver books, the low budget grocery store documentaries, the oodles of early 2000 websites on the Waffen SS, was what got me into studying the Third Reich more seriously than just as the NPC for the Allies. I&apos;ve watched this lecture at least 10 times. And there is not a time I run through Dr. Blood&apos;s points when some new aspect of the SS, it&apos;s operations, and its psychology clicks and makes a little more sense. WW2TV is full of fascinating and illuminating analyses and scholarship - but if this was the only video it produced, it would still make it one of the best online history productions out there. Thank you, Woody, for bringing this to the wider world.

  Possibly the best yet, the systematic destruction of the SS myth.

  Peter Blood is one of the greatest British military historians that we must get more of. Given that he trained under the ultimate gentleman historian, the late great Richard Holmes, one can see who crafted his talents. Indeed a very lucky man!!!

  This was a great insight into the SS and how it turned so many of the youth and volunteers through indoctrination warping their views and normalizing brutality giving them a sense that they were elite when in fact they were brainwashed tools. Dr Bloods research is profound and really helps to make sense of how they became what they became. Another book added to my list of must read. Thanks Paul I have been thoroughly enjoying the rediscovery and finally scratching through the surface to find truth.

  This is proper historical research and analysis . Makes so much on this subject which has gone before look rather superficial

  Yes, an amazing analysis, from a ..... business and organisation angle. Having now heard Dr Blood, the method seems so obvious.
