Retracing The Conflicts of WW 2 - Across every theatre of the Second World War battle strategies were designed to capitalise on terrains with better access to supplies. Despite these tactics, many forces were stretched beyond their limits, facing unforeseen conditions and underestimating targets. These battles won and lost would determine possession of territory, resources and the strength to go on fighting.
For some of the battles it was the victory that most influenced the future course of the war. For others, it was the defeat. From sweeping offensives to special operations, this is the story of the battles won and battles lost that shaped the outcome of the greatest conflict in history.

I too have been watching videos on it ever since I have been on UKposts. My grandfather was in WW2 in the European arena. Now that I know so much more about the history of the war, I would love to talk to him about it. He past away 18 years ago though. Several men from our community were veterans of WW2 and I don’t think any are alive still.

Decades happened in those 6 years. I am 33 now and have been intently interested and studied WW2 since I was 6 and I am still learning new things. One recent discovery of mine was the battle of Bamber Bridge in England. British soldiers and civilians fighting with U.S soldiers over racial segregation. An interesting event. Might I also suggest if you have not already checking out Mark Felton Productions here on UKposts. He focuses in on important but lesser known facts.

Not really! The main source of German oil was, of course, Ploesti in Rumania, and Barbarossa was launched, in large measure, to push the Soviets out of air range of the oil fields. As it happened by the time the Germans got to Baku, the Soviets had thoroughly wrecked the oil rigs, and the Germans could not draw a drop of that oil, because by the time they fixed the oil wells, the Germans were already being driven back by Bagration and other Russian offensives. Also the oil from Baku held high sulfur content oil of a very low grade, so it was almost useless to Germany without further processing of the oil, which the Germans were in no position to do by then.

Nope. You have to read the details on Barbarossa. It was planned to last 6 weeks. After that Soviet capitulation. Now if you calculate the starting date june 22nd 1941( delayed by greeks according to Churchill) and add 6 more weeks, germans were supposed to finish off the Red Army by mid august. Still having 2 months to spare before winter months, right? But the Wermacht was submitted into such attrition than 6 months later and nazis were still figuring out why the reds were still fighting. So the alledgedly delay to help the soviets was irrelevant to the outcome of Barbarossa. I can assure you Mussolini or the greeks were not in Hitlers mind on what went wrong with Barbarossa.

@@eddiemerc1986 Barbarossa was probably doomed by the German miscalculation of what the Soviet Union was capable of. That miscalculation was probably ideologically pre-programmed and pretty much invincible.

It was also existential seeing as it's now known that the Soviets had their own invasion plans drawn up for the Reich, just years later when they were more prepared, somewhere around 1942-1943 as opposed to the spring of 1941. Soviets were still fairly weak at the time, so the Germans took the impetus - a lot of Soviet survival can be owed to the American Lend-Lease Program honestly.

They needed to be punished for surrendering, you see. Every Russian was supposed to fight to the death rather than surrender according to crazy Uncle Joe, and those who didn't, should pay the price, and they did.

The Germans and Italians would have got to Suez and the oil resulting to a toss of a coin on the Eastern front.

Nazis had been the biggest threat to modern civilization ever. Period. And nobody proved they could be stopped until the soviets. At a huge cost. A cost I would dare anyone to affirm if Britain, France or the US were prepared to take. But that was needed to erase that racial nonsense from the face of earth. And a final number to you. 70% of all casualties the germans suffered in WW2 were anhilated in the eastern front. Along 60% of the Luftwaffe.
