There's a book called "Bloody Red Tabs" that gives the details of all British senior officers killed or wounded in WW1. It's quite the tome. What you also have to remember is that right up until at least the first world war, quite a lot of those Generals (especially the British) had seen hand to hand combat in colonial wars as junior officers - and many WW2 generals had been frontline combat officers in WW1.

Yikes...he was born at the right (wrong?) time to be stuck in BOTH wars...did he survive? The eastern front? (Clearly he survived Verdun)

@@mamavswild he was lucky that his division split, because the other half went to Stalingrad. He went on to the Black Sea where his commanding officer surrendered, eventually being in a Soviet and later British POW camp. He died peacefully at age 102. I can’t imagine the misery and horror all the soldiers that fought in these wars had to go through. His company had to survive on rats and their horses. Let’s appreciate this period of peace and let’s hope it lasts.

@@prussianangler Oh my gosh that’s...just amazing. I’m so glad he was able to help build a better life for himself after the war. I’m an Army Officer (US) and we read and research books on theory, warfare, tactics and strategic decision making all the time as part of our professional development...one of the books that is required reading for US Army Officers (according to army.mil and the war college) is ‘The Forgotten Soldier’ by Guy Sajer, a soldier who fought in the Grossdeutschland Division. I wrote a thesis following the read and basically it said that I learned... ....I learned that I would rather SAW OFF MY OWN HEAD than be a Soldat on the Ostfront. Fuuuuuuk that! I have tremendous respect for your grandfather being able to make it through such a difficult time. What most people fail to realize is, the young men who fought and struggled to survive/die in the Wehrmacht were just aged 7-13 when Bad Mustache Man came to power (it was the saintly WWI generation who voted he and his party in! Of course, it was more complicated than that and many lived to regret that decision and besides he never had more than 34% of the vote but hey that’s another discussion)...they were as innocent as anyone else. What they got for their innocence was a militarized boyscout program, indoctrination and more indoctrination. Then a brutal 6 years only half survived, then a lifetime of being told that they were pieces of shit. I’m humble enough to know that had I been born with the same accident of time and geography, my ass would’ve been out on the ostfront too.

@@mamavswild yes it must’ve been really bad. I really like it that you got to read literature about the other side. Every soldier suffered tremendously, no matter what side. Many German soldiers were also drafted, such as my great grandfather in WW2. We should all respect the men and women that put their life and sanity on the line to fight for their country. That’s why I admire the American tradition of honoring your servicemen and women and your veterans as heroes, which they are. Here in Germany people have no respect for our soldiers and even talk bad about them for our involvement in Mali and co, which is still for a good cause. To the point of Hitler getting voted, that is absolutely true. The people that voted him were also super desperate, because the Great Depression and the Versailles treaty were really hard for the German people. I am absolutely disgusted by what we’ve done in WW2, but people have to understand the whole story before judging and blaming returning soldiers.

@@ziz9087 what a load of horse manure. The Germans didn't give a shit, seeing as how they didn't rotate soldiers away from the front for rest like the French did. In the German army you stayed in the trenches until you died or the war was over. The French had monthly rotations every other month.

An old general went to the military academy where a lot of new recruits where gathered for their final ceremony and gave a speech and the young men joined him to actively try and join the Germans hell they even got a German colonial officer to come from a German colony to inspect our boys, however the main reason it failed was because of the general in charge wasn't the original pick for it the original one was accidentally shot dead by police when his driver didn't stop at a police checkpoint set up to try and catch a few bank robbers the stand in for the original pick didn't have the knowledge and experience to lead such a large army and after a few talks gave up and handed over the soldiers under him only one guy was hanged and it was some random guy who had joined them after running away from the place he was working as a guard. This rebellion was the reason we didn't consript our boys for the ww2.

Max respect to ALL of the young men, no matter which side they were on. There was no ‘Right Side’ in WWI. The British only cared about ensuring there was no competition for their empire and sacrificed their child nations to achieve their goals (often throwing Canadians into the worst of the front or tossing ANZAC soldiers into irresponsible, near certain death at Gallipoli) The Germans thought they were defending a friend. There was no right or wrong.
