German Soldiars had an allowence to smoke 6 Cigarettes a day. And they only got a new package if they returned the old empty one. Thats why at the end if the got captured the asked "American Cigaretttes please" bc Dresden was firebombed and the CIG factory gone so they couldn get any at the end of the war

Great film

All I know that in the movie "Downfall", there is a man named Adolf Hitler aka Dolfy, who refuses to believe that he died on April 30th, 1945, he refuses to realize that he lived in an Underground Bunker in Berlin, and being mocked by his generals and called as a "Poor Old Man". His archnemesis is Hermann Fegelein, who inflicts antics on Dolfy on a daily basis.

False

If I was on the front line I think I'd do the same and just save people, call me a coward but I dont like killing people

Falso falso

The military calls it a clip? I doubt it. Ever hear of a magazine?

BS

I think people today would have an even stronger reaction.

Older bicycle safety helmets had similar problems as the sharp klunky strap buckle could cut your neck or face. Ultimately, bike helmets drew so much attention away from missing front brakes, that they indirectly did more harm than good.

He's a stupid man who doesn't know what he wants 😀

Schindler in the end wanted to save as many as he could ❤❤

Audy Murphy was also not a big man. This technique probably helped him control the rise.

When people want to ban a particular story from being told, you know it's pretty close to the truth.

That movie is absolutely incredible one solid take thru the whole film!! And its based on a true story! Watching it had me on the edge of my seat!

That’s true

❤❤❤❤❤incredible film

marines say the army is not for you.. derrrrr.

This is a testament to the fact that Modern Russia IS NOT the Soviet Union.

The Hollywood shot out was said to be inspired by this movie.

I’m no arms expert, but I do enjoy going to the range. I was told if you want to learn the 3 point stance with a sling is to watch Val in The Ghost and the Darkness. The way he also handles a rifle there is truly an instructor’s dream.

This is a technique that can still be utilized today on modern rifles with slings. It's mostly used when firing from odd positions or when posted up on barricades. The sling is gripped to pull the rifle into the shoulder and in certain positions the rifle can rest on your balled fist like an improvised monopod.

Get bent, commies

I used to fire my Garand in similar fashion wrapping the sling around my arm and using it as a foregrip.

How lame to use this hahaha

I'm shocked. David Schwimmer was in a movie????

Save all microscopic babies embryothers phitusisters

Did you know I don’t care

Holding the sling like that does absolutely nothing. The sling has to be wrapped around the wrist in order to stabilize it. But only for long shots. And it stays slung around the soldier.

I drove a DUKW on the water once. It was more maneuverable than expected

If you look at these scenes....he doesn't actually use the sights to shoot.....he sprayes bullets....

My vet Dad used both tbe drum and box magazine Thompson and told me that the forward pistol grip was missed on the later models...but they were lighter and didn't jam

Russian soldiers being ill equipped and used as human fodder? Kind of like 2023-24.

Years ago I meet an ME109 pilot. He had 5 kills, 2 british 3 soviet before he was shot down and taken prisoner by the soviets. That's a story for another day. But his first kill was a spitfire. He said after I shot him down I watched him bail out and some luft ground crewman picked him up and brought him to the airfield. When I landed I meet him and the British fellow came up and shook my hand and said "jolly good shooting ol chap." He told me they had no grudges against each other, they were both happy that the dog fight ended with both living to tail the story. The airmen truly had more respect for each other then the other branches did. They understood each other.

Pershing had a breakdown toward the end. Might encourage breakdowns I suppose. I think Grant and Sherman also had issues.

I loved the movie when i watched it

Tarkov please take notes, 200 rounds to a thorax with almost zero impact is crazy

Winters also confirmed that spears executed POWs as well. Spears wrote a letter to him. Confirming everything about him was true.

MOH Salute Sir!

They also showed a scene where an RPG-7 fired with no warhead in it 😂

If you were went to Vietnam as a soldier, which country would you be from? •United States of America •France •Imperial Japan

The interpretation is asinine. Poland was a communist dictatorship imposed by the Soviets. What do you think the reaction would be to someone walking around in a Fascist uniform?

Based Russian vets

So, where’s their royalties at though?

the purpose of this disrespect in the film was to build the protagonist/antagonist fervor in the film, Major Powers was supposed to appear to be the consummate asshole unfit for his job. the actor managed to portray that to a T. (don't hate on the actor, remember, he's not playing himself).

It was a joint effort that gets lost in film. But that’s ok. We were allies, we were on the same team, I reckon I wouldn’t have given a shit if I was an American or British regiment soldier and have had advanced and captured an emplacement on D-Day. I don’t think our boys on either side gave a shit either on that day too.

As a paratrooper I was allowed that in 2003

That is Hollywood for you but bad saluting is more of and Air Force thing.

The whole movie was fire as has u on you your toes
