Early Access - Luftwaffe War Crimes
🕑 Added 2020-09-21 21:23:40 +0000 UTCHey all,
Here is your early access to the next video. This one is a heavy one, since it deals with Luftwaffe War Crimes during World War 2. The aim is to present an overview of the topic and not an indepth study.
Thank you for the support,
Chris

Chris, I'm sure this wasn't easy for you, and that you probably have been thinking about this for a very long time, years, even if not decades. I think you did a good job of presenting not just facts of behavior, but also quoting German sources who acknowledged, during the war, that standards existed that were not being respected. I know, thanks to reading and podcasts, that psychological experiments have shown that ordinary people are prone to gradually falling into unethical behavior, especially when authorities aprove. Stay safe.
Excellent video of a disturbing topic, one that we must bear in mind lest these things come to pass in the present day.

This was a tough story to tell. You are a brave historian to tell it so fairly. Thank you for explaining these enabling relationships, not unlike those we experience now, which might remain lost to many 20th century military aviation buffs. The devil is always in the details... This video is among your best

Biz, thanks for that . It mustn't have been pleasant reading researching this episode.

Very thoughtful review. On slave laborers from Auschwitz sent to work in the Augsburg Bfw plant, David Ailsby's THE DECISIVE DUEL: SPITFIRE VS. 109, includes interesting remarks by Elli Friedmann, then-teenager from Hungary.

Seems odd to "like" a video on this subject, but I found it very informative.
