What a time to be alive
Don't give a thumbs up for any historical videos that the uploader censors images from the recording!! No matter how small, stand against censorship!!
Well said.
💯% correct
Blurring out the dead and wounded is ridiculous. My God, it’s HISTORY. Stop trying to control what people see.
It's the idiots at CZcams!
It is the fault of that stupid censorius CEO of YT Not so sweet susie woljnicki a complete prize prat's fault.
Agreed 100%. Perhaps if people see the result, the unvarnished reality of war they might be hesitant to start to start another one. In world war 2 FDR had to approve showing American dead, and it was toward the later stages before they finally allowed it and once they did the public started pushing for an end to the war. It gets real when you see the result.
Blurring the civilian casualties - the bodies of brutally murdered Filipinas, for example - minimizes the barbaric nature of the Japanese soldiers, and distorts reality.
@@alexmuenster2102 Definitely, YT/Google are a censorious disgrace.
these documentaries are top notch.
Why does CZcams keep blurring out the photos of dead soldiers? This is about life, death and history!
CZcams is for kids and pedos only, not necros.
Reality makes communists cry.
We are children and YT is our babysitter .
@@andrewcharles459 You need to watch more of these history docs because you seem clueless.
People advertise on YT. They don't want their products associated with death and killing. If it bothers you, maybe go buy a copy.
My Dad served from the canal to Tinan. Good presentation of WW2, Pacific. Keep producing.
Very good presentation. My Dad was Army ... Amphibious after fighting in New Guinea became an Island Hopper 14 Amphibious Landings. One time Dad said they hit the beach and the Japs had abandoned all their emplacements and left the heavy mortar's and heavy guns in the emplacements. He said it was an eerie feeling with those guns pointed out where he just came from! Yeah...one day while watching one of these about the Japanese side A Commanding Japanese Officer said that one time he pulled all his men back because he mistook the sound of the Higgins Boats motors as tanks on barges! Isn't that something!
" Heaven Knows Mr. Allison" kinda
Please thank your dad for his service. We free today because of people like him. I'm from New Guinea, Rabaul
What a WW2ish place to grow up. Lots of sunken ships around I'd think.
@@anthonyburnam3415 they still find guns unexploded ordinance brass casings etc...
You totally glossed over the battle where Japan's northern fleet attempted to enter leyte gulf and was confronted by the inferior American fleet that was left to support the landing force. The American ships were no match for the huge Japanese ships but they courageously charged into battle with them to protect American troops on shore. It was because of these determined American Navy men that the Japanese retreated. Their actions kept 200,000 American troops on shore from being annihilated. It was one on the bravest underdog battles in the entire war.
They also had escort carriers and the only air power in that naval battle .
3 escort carriers hold the same amount of planes as one big fleet carrier .
The destroyer that fought like a battleship

@@dickmjavil The Japanese lost 4 carriers to bombs not Torpedoes at Midway .

@@Crashed131963 we're talking about the Battle off Samar/Battle of Leyte Gulf here, were the escort carriers planes were armed with bombs intended for Land targets. 🤗
I don't know if they had dive bombers.
Yes, the Dive bombers dealt the death blow Midway. Torpedo bombers were the sacrificial lambs, Japanese fighters were down below.
Fortunes of war. 🤗
How about those Aussies got to love how hard they fought.
❤😂😂🎉🎉😢😮😅
@james
If you are sincere remarking about Aussies fighting hard in WW2 my appreciation for your remark.
I make this entry as an Aussie. Aussies generally have been put down to the glory of America and American service people.
You might be aware that Australia has celebrated ANZAC day, 25th April.
Australia and New Zealand Army Corps.
RIP all who died, allied and supposed enemy (Johnny Turk).
@@robertgrey6101 Just this morning I was talking to my future son-in-law about how hrd the Aussies fought in the Pacific and how hard the Canadians fought in both world wars so it's almost like fate that you posted me. I was talking about Kokada trail and how savage it was especially since it was the guys they couldn't send overseas and they fought well once they learned the rules and they were dependable throughout the entire war. My thanks to hypohistorical history for teaching me about the Pacific and the role non-American troops played in it.
Great video although they passed over one of the most heroic battles of all time. It was the reason the Japanese turned tail and left the battle along with their mighty Yamato battleship. The battle of Samar on the east side of the Phillipines.
Cause all the sissies will faint.
Yes, the US navy won with smaller ships
They skipped over Tarawa and Palau.
Dad said they were much worse than Guacanal.
God bless our toops!
See Drachinfel's Battle of Samar Video available on YT.
That was a hell of a tale. The Yamamoto. Just the name sends chills down my spine. Like the Falaise gap or the Somme. Lot of death packed into that Battleship. They were just beautiful ships. The Musashi was her sister ship as I'm sure you all know.
This is a 2018 TV series called "The Pacific War in Color".

When people ask why dropping the atomic bombs was justified, this is why.
Yes, now I understand the justifications on those two atomic bombs. Fighting the loyal and fierce Japanese people will be more horrendous to our history.
Propaganda, but NOT History, has led us to believe that the Empire of Japan began its territorial expansion in the 1930’s, invading China, creating the puppet State of Manchukuo and “Provoking” the war with the Western Powers. But, Was this really, how events happened? Did Japan invade China and South East Asia? It seems so. However, the Propaganda does NOT say that for centuries, all Asia was invaded by Western Powers. England occupied India, Burma (Myanmar); Borneo, Sumatra, Singapore, Malaysia and China (Hong Kong, Nanking, Shanghai, etc). France dominated all Indochina. The Netherlands intervened by the Force of its Arms, to all of Indonesia. And Belgium, Germany, Portugal, Spain, and of course, also the United States were in South East Asia cuz, for example this country, the US, occupied the Philippines since 1898. (Spanish-American War). Thus the panorama in the 30's, the Empire of Japan, when defeating to the Tsarist Russian Empire, it also decided to "Grow" by invading its neighbors. In those years, all European nations had colonies in Africa, India, the Middle East, Asia and America. (England came to occupy almost ¼ part of the planet). For its part, the US, in 113 years of existence as a nation in those years, had "Grown" 711 the size of its territory from its original 13 colonies. Now is the picture clear? Japan for its part, had fought on the side of the winners in World War I (1914-1918), and they, the Japanese, not awarded any "Gain". The western victors of WWI divided the world. Japan was excluded. Thus, Japan's motives for attacking and expanding as the Europeans and the US did seem clearer, right? Then they, the Japanese, attacked China in 1931, which was occupied by 6 Western Powers for almost a century. None of the Western Powers occupying China at this time, OPPOSED or fought Japan for Invading China. NONE! Then, 11 years later after having occupied the territory of China and coexisted without any problem with the Western Powers within China, they, the Japanese, attacked Hawaii, which in turn, this Island had been occupied and annexed by the US in 1898. (In 1900-01, Hawaii became US territory and Hawaii ceased to be an independent nation after more than 630 years of sovereignty. By the time Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the United States had just completed the 40th anniversary of the military occupation and annexation of Hawaii). They, the Japanese, attacked Singapore, which was then a Colony of England. They, the Japanese, attacked the Philippines, which were occupied by the US and whose Gov’r, Douglas MacArthur reined as Emperor. Yup… Truly like an Absolute Autocrat. Therefore, the Japanese did NOT attack (In the 40’s), Singapore, Burma, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Borneo, Timor, the Philippines, etc. In reality, the Japanese attacked England, France, Holland, the US, the UK, etc. That is, the Japanese attacked the Western Powers invading all of Asia. That is the verifiable truth. The Empire of Japan didn’t invade. Japan fought against the Invaders. But, Propaganda has made us believe that the good guys were us, the US. And of course… Nanking was a horrendous Genocide committed by Japan, but, it was no more horrendous than the 12 Genocides committed by the United States in his History and all over the world. Nor was it less horrendous than the Genocide committed by King Leopold II of Belgium, in Central Africa. Nor was Nanking more or less horrendous than the Genocides that the British Empire committed in America, Africa, Australia, Middle East, India and also in China too. In the Philippines (1898-1902), the US Army produced a Genocide of One Million people dead. ONE MILLION. And now, the Japanese are our friends and allies... Yup… But, to fight against China, AGAIN!!! Well… No More. No More British Malaya nor British Borneo nor British wherever. No More French Indochina. No more Dutch Indies. No More Portugese Domains. No More US Domain here. Asia is for Asians and “The China Sea” belongs to CHINA. Westerns powers have nothing to do in Asia. NOTHING!!!
If you read the Potsdam Declaration of July 26th, 1945 , Truman and his advisors made it clear they wanted to remove Japan's military gov for all time and bring in human rights . As you've pointed out , this video shows why .
While under US occupation Japan's Constitution was changed in 1947 - bringing Democratic and Human Rights .
But the corporate neo liberal media blame Truman and woke fools believe the media .
.
Rezorces. Yes, can never get enough of those.
We know this is a WAR documentary, full of pain and killing. Viewers are expecting it to be gruesome and harsh. What is the point of blurring?
As a general rule only enemy dead were shown so people at home wouldnt see their son dead on the battlefield.. FDR made an exception after the TARAWA disaster.
'Victory At Sea' was much better.
He is talking about YT censorship today.@@rackets7991
@rkbyrd4432 It is called woke nonsense.

USA: Fine by me
Shut up
By the way, nine minutes and 15 seconds in, the man with the Lt Colonel's tabs leading the Marine column from the right side of the trail is one Lt. Colonel, Chesty Puller, winner of five, that's five, Navy crosses, the Silver Star, and the Bronze Star with V, and the Purple Heart, plus numerous other medals and awards, just so's you know. He retired with the rank of Lieutenant General.

It's a shame you have decided to censor the imagery for us, even though it's available elsewhere on youtube.
They want the money for this video most likely why. Won’t be demonitized
You fail to mention the reason the Japanese Centerforce turned around. They ran into Taffy 3. I really recommend the short read. LAST STAND OF THE TIN CAN SAILORS.. absolutism heroism.

I have at least 2 boxes of WWll Film in my Garage, i don't have proper equipment to see, My grandpa a WWll srgt. & film guy who i think also edited some "Victory at Sea" presentations, is where they came from after G-ma died & I helped him move, The Metal Canisters look the same size as elementary school film projectors from back in the 60's. - i live near Disneyland if you're interested in obtaining them, perhaps...
(I'm guessing some never seen before footage/since the 1940's) perhaps... The Film still ,looks good, i opened one canister of Many
I hope someone takes you up on that.
You forgot the Defense of Leyte by the Tin Can Fleet😢
Where can I find the original series without all the blurring?

When will the fallen human nature ever truly learn from history?
My uncle was a B-29 pilot. He's now at the bottom of the Pacific after disappearing on his way back from a bombing run. Typhoon, 6/1/45. I still want to find him
Don't exactly get all the details. What with the blurring, so much for freedom of the press.
There is an error here. The number of Japanese pilots killed at midway were not massive. [23:25] They were on the carriers which did not sink quickly and thus rescued. A lot of Hiryu pilots were killed, at Midway but no from the other three carriers. It was during the fighting in the Solomons during 1942-43 that most of the well-trained carrier pilots were killed, both as a. result of naval and land operations.
That's why I'm very disappointed and angry to the Japanese because they massacre innocent civilians in the Philippines but I need to accept that situation that is war ...
日本人是一个信仰強权的民族，在它们的教育里有一等人，二等人，和三国人的概念，日本人对比它们认为低级的国家和民族是可以奴役的、凶残的，所以对待日本人只有学习美国人的铁拳制裁方法，只有比日本人更强大的铁拳才能好好的保护自己！！！
I especially like how CZcams’s closed captioning wrote (Music) when it showed the atomic bomb pop off…..
41:15 my grandfather was in that division he was a Major. 😎
please dont blurr
I read a book by Victor Davis Hanson who explained why America beat Japan. "The Americans learned to fight like the Japanese, but the Japanese did not learn to produce weapons, food, and fuel like the Americans." Very simply explained.
Why blurring out the dead soldiers? Very nice documentary though 🙌
Very well done documentary. Very historical footage. Also love the colorized filming as well. Thanks for sharing a stupendous documentary. Respectfully herr Dave blackburn
Excellent documentary but very sloppy sub-titles😮
Why the bluring
And General McArthur did return to Palo, Leyte Philippines 🇵🇭
I understood that the initial landing was NOT OPPOSED. Only labor troops were anywhere nearby.
Wow. Color foot
Age.
Of the 2,000 Japanese on Guadalcanal 85% were construction workers with only 300 soldiers.. Landing was unopposed until the IJN landed several thousand army combat troops and the fight for Henderson field ensued.. Fighting didnt stop until 1943 when Japan withdrew from the island. Heavy fighting at the Tenaru River (wrongly identified on US maps) (800 enemy killed) & Epson's ridge around Henderson Field killed nearly 2 thousand of Japanese ... TARAWA. .There was NO INLAND fighting.. Tarawa isnt wide enough to change your mind on..
😢😅
I understood that the Tulagi detachment fought fiercely against the invader, yet the Guadalcanal group did flee immediately.
Correctly.the Japanese garrison at Guadalcanal was 180 soldiers and 1800 Korean laborers
👍
What the heck (?), blurring out historic scenes. By whose authority and to what end? Stupid censorship.
I don't like my videos being censored. I am an adult, I can handle the brutality of war.
You promised details! But too many generalities for loo many minutes and no specifics
I decided just to watch what pieces CZcams ...
How to defeat an enemy that won't surrender, You stop preventing them from killing Themselves and concentrate on the enemy who don't kill Themselves.
Okay...on Feb,3rd my birthday!?!😂😂😂❤❤❤
Documentary features should be presented as they are no BLURRING!!!. of certain scenes for people to know the horrors of war. Footages are good but this blurring makes me looked for other feature worth watching.
just hiding the horror by the blurring of the dead.
It is not youtube. This is a documentary posted without copyright.
What’s with the headbanger music?..had to mute the audio.
What's so damned gruesome that you must blur out so many images?
Didn’t Iwo Jima follow after the Mariana Islands?
Praise Jesus(Luke2:14)-Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
Why is it that a lot of these documentaries show a particular battle using combat scenes from other battles to describe that one battle? Example, Tarawa. That island didn't have jungle, yet, this video segment shows dense jungle battle scenes. Plenty of video about Tarawa to not need to add video of say Saipan or Guam.
❤
CZcams is so random in its censorship. Some shows uncensored some heavily censored. Do one or the other. Just like their rules, arbitrary. Guess some random troll reports then people who’ve been posting for years with no complaints get demonetized. Guess CZcams saves money then. I used to love it but too many ads, AI narration and this other nonsense is making it harder to watch. Not a bad video otherwise.
😅This is not entirely accurate. Mcathur didn't lead the campaign in Papua New Guinea, he only went there once and not to the front, Australian troops did the bulk of the fighting in PNG. Aussie troops inflicted the first defeat on land to the Japanese at Milne bay PNG, defeated them in the Owen Stanley range and on to Buna,Gona and Sananda.
It is worth remembering that the Australian 9th Infantry Division handed the German Afrika Korps and the German Army their first land defeat at Tobruk 1941, when they successfully defended against none other than Rommel. Then once again, it was the Aussies 39th battalion who first stopped the Japanese on the Kokoda track in New Guinea starting in July of 42. Meanwhile, MacArthur was securing the best hotel space in Melbourne Australia from which he could plan his return to the Philippines.
The Russian defeated the Japanese first.
Battles of Khalkhin Gol in 1939.
Japanese Sixth Army was defeated.
You are correct of course, however, although Khalkhin Gol occurred in 1939 it is not generally regarded as a part of WW2. Japan's entry into WW2 is generally credited in Dec 41, so I will stand by my comment with an added "after the outbreak of World War 2." @@Crashed131963

MacArthur Leaffroging 🐸😊works or islands hopping
There a lot of gaps in this documentary. Simply focused on examples and some land statistics. In the beginning the troops did well however they took so long because the Japanese navy out performed the US navy and all was still in the balance. US control was gained in the first place because of air supriourity including in the definte battle of port Moresby. The Japanese navy and Raboul were relentlesly bombed and air to air combat was so succesful that the navy and the troops gained a fighting change and momentum. Including the American navy turning point somewhere after the Solomon islands campaign to the point growing stronger every day end the Japanese becoming incapable of replacing the large losses in shipping and aircrafts. Completely missing this.
Guadalcanal bro was the turning point as the Japanese Navy were superior at night time tactics. American never made that mistake again.
Your map shown at 13:10 wrongly places Rabaul on New Ireland and not correctly on New Britain it's southern island neighbour
Too many factual errors.
Completely skip the Battles of Savo Island that created Iron Bottom Sound.
the southern battle was a night action taffy 3 and her consorts did not fight that battle

Yep the JIN and JIA were absolutely victory or death and our beloved USN USMC and US Army were more than happy to oblige them
Yamamoto tried in vain to warn his colleagues that America was a sleeping giant Japan had best allow to continue its slumber but he was to Japan's great misfortune ignored
I think we've confused Guadalcanal and Tulagi. No mention of the sea and air battles that were really the heart of the Guadalcanal campaign. I'm sorry, but this is very poorly done. Superficial and misleading.
Error about saying America has never attempted amphibious landings in war. It happened at the battle of Fredericksburg in 1862.
Actually, the Marines first amphib landing was during the Revolution, storming a Brit held fort for arms & powder in the Caribbean !
Aint no way malaria killed more servicemen than combat against Japanese soldiers. Just ain't no way.
Fighting a dug in bunch of fanatics is not easy at all.
对，当时的日本人都被洗脑天皇是神，所以它们都为了神不怕死，死是一种光荣，反过来对待亚洲的国家也是比较凶残的，因为它们被教育比其他亚洲国家高贵，可以奴役他们，为了今后再不被日本人奴役就得学习美利坚共和国铁拳制裁，一定要有比日本人强大的铁拳才安全！
You show Japan's southern fleet attacked by aircraft. That is incorrect. The southern forces were destroyed by gunfire from US battleships. Also, no P-51s were flown from US carriers..... Let's watch the technical direction a bit more closely next time...
Completely overlooks The Australian commitment that carried the war to Japan almost alone until 1943. And MacArthur then relegated a major Ally to secondary mopping up work. This documentary is pretty shallow
27:17
27:17, 37:25 - A potential threat, especially it now got the 2 nukes that it will never forget!
49:08- this is why it lost so completely and became an 2nd grade country

Nice try, but overall not a very good documentation. By leaving important happenings unmentioned and blurring video content you cripple the historical value of it. Sorry, but no.
Dam! What a gross video! Well done ! Japanese put up a good fight but Americans had NO heart ❤️ to quit fighting!
PC blurring craps on an otherwise decent doco...👎
Amusingly bad script, lots of errors, but fun video
Yes it is true that the Japanese massacred thousand of Filipinos during the Japanese occupation and the battle of Manila. But it is a fact that the bulk of the death of Filipino civilians in the city is caused by American bombs from their air raids on the city. But Filipinos understand that many innocent lives will be lost in this clashes between liberators and glutton conquerors. Filipinos endured the suffering of being conquered and mourn the death brought by the liberation of its people, but Filipinos resilience made them united and build the country again.
MacArthur ego cost many, many lives. Later during the Korea war he showed his true colours, proving that he was total crazy as he presented Truman with a nuke bombing list of over 20 targets inside China for which he demanded not less than 34 nukes. Thank Truman that he fired the madman after that
most of the fighting are won by the locals...not americann soldiers...they.only claimed the honor of victory after the battle..
This is terrible.
The video footage doesn't even match the narration.
