My dad was a Marine Raider, 1st Marine Division. He was in the first wave at Guadalcanal. He'd never talk about his experiences in the war, which is par for the course. After his death, I found a shoebox filled with medals, ribbons, and pictures, including a Purple Heart and Silver Star with cluster. I saw one picture of my dad after he was evacuated in November, and I almost didn't recognize him. He was always built like a tank, but it looked like he lost close to 100 pounds. He had bouts of malaria for over 20 years. At my dad's funeral, one of his war buddies came up to me and said, "You know, your dad was a real hero." He was always this little girl's hero, so it came as no surprise. I miss him every day.

My dad was a marine at Guadalcanal also. I think perhaps many who served in the islands did not care to talk about their experiences, and I know mine certainly did not. Somehow, though, he liked to watch the movies regarding WWII, and I usually got to stay up to watch them with him. Marines certainly seem to make great dads, especially for little girls, and I still miss mine very much also.

The commentary on Leyte is wrong. Kurita did NOT sail north after exiting the San Bernadino Strait; he turned south toward the invasion force, running into three groups of escort carriers and destroyers. Halsey took the bait. Kurita, however, forgot the whole point of his mission, to destroy the landing force. After a confusing couple of hours, he turned around and sailed away. Drachinifel explains this battle wonderfully in "Odds? What are those?"

The war has become a world war, when Brits have promised to protect Poland. Which they didnt. The poles then went to UK, and had the most successfull Squadron of Battle of Britain. Fought at Tobruk, conquered Monte Cassino, fought at Arnhem, and many other places. After war, they were given to Stalin, and were not even allowed to march in the Victory parade. And now Poles in the UK are commonly threated or attacked just because they are Polish, while at the same time UK is giving moral lessons to the Eastern Europe about its racism.

This is nonsense. Civilians were bombed because they were located near the war production factories that they worked in. These were not to a great extent innocent civilians, they were civilians who were building bombs, Gans, bomber’s, tanks, etc. it would be absolutely impossible in any modern at the time city to bomb the factories without bombing the workers of those factories. Certainly they were innocent civilians killed in mass. But to say that serious war planners on either side were counting mostly on the demoralization of citizens it’s nonsense.

Many historians now say bombing campaign against Germany was wildly successful, just not in the way intended. It forced Germans to pull pretty much all their fighters back to defend Germany, which gave Brit, Americans, Russians complete air superiority over the battlefields. Many estimate at least an extra year, if not more, plus many more tens of thousands of troops dead had they not had that air superiority. For example, the number of days it took for German tank reserves to get to Normandy after D-Day.

Seconding Mr. Sewell's statement that the commentary on Leyte is all wrong. Your description of Kurita's retreat off Samar is incomprehensible without describing the ferocious counterattack by the hopelessly outgunned Taffy 3. Kurita, already exhausted by losing his flagship Atago in the Sibuyan, expected to see carriers and battleships. He saw escort carriers and thought they were fleet carriers. The ferocious, suicidal counter attack by Taffy 3's "Small boys"--destroyers Johnston, Hoel, and Heerman, and DE Samuel B Roberts--made Kurita think he saw battleships. The "small boys" and the vigorous counterattack by the air crews of Taffies 1, 3, and 3 convinced Kurita that he was up against a much stronger force than he actually was.

One of the most effective "small weapons" that were used against paratroopers in Crete in 1941 was a makeshift one. It used a long wooden pole, anything really above 2 meters long would do, with a kind of knife, ANY kind of knife, tied to its "business end". Scores of hapless paras were introduced to the fabled Cretan hospitality when they were skewered by these "weapons", many of which were wielded by local men AND women defending their homes. Even today, ANZACs that fell during the Battle of Crete are specially honored in the military cemetaries on the island. Cretans will never forget those who fought here, especially those who came from half a world away, probably not even knowing the island existed, to die here. This is a debt that can never be repaid. Note 1: Freiberg was either an idiot or totally incompetent. To have intelligence early and not act on it is nothing short of criminal. Note 2: Charles Upham won his second Victoria Cross (the only combatant to do so in the decoration's history) for actions conducted in Crete.

They are way off about strategic bombing. They are making a revisionist SJW pronouncement on It. Sure it certainly wasn't moral but the effect it had especially US Airforce and RAF bombing raids on Japan and Germany was to deal critical blows to production, basically tanks, Aircraft, artillery etc along with munitions were being destroyed before they reached the battlefield. German & Japanese cities were knocked down and burned to the ground destroying factories and killing hundreds of thousands of skilled replaceable factory workers. Was Strategic bombing a war winner on its own? No. Did it break the enemies will to fight on? No. Did it shorten the war? In my view yes. Was it moral? Only if you consider it immoral to prolong war. A big problem in my view we have today in the west is that we try to moralise that war is moral and just, this idea has led us into many bloody prolonged conflicts like the Vietnam war or the war on terror, if these wars had been quick and brutal at the start they wouldn't have lasted so long and were immoral in that respect.

Bomber Command’s efforts may have saved Fighter Command, however, when they hit Berlin. The Germans shifted from attacking RAF airfields to trying to level London, giving Fighter Command a break when it was badly needed. And the combined bombing offensive against Germany shifted fighters, along with massive numbers of 88mm guns and the crews to man them, away from the front lines. Was it worth it? It’s probably impossible to say one way or the other. Or rather, it’s equally possible to take either position, and produce numbers to back it up.

This is one of your least accurate documentaries I have watched. Also, quite a bit of bias by your participants!

Agreed. This documentary it totally inaccurate regarding ww1. Everyone knows that Japan was an ally during the great war. This is total ford propaganda.
