Seriously, Franz is your grand uncle? I have an entire 90 minute interview with him nobody has ever seen that I did in 2004 on Omaha Beach. Feel free to contact me. WEBSITE: larrycappetto.com
It's the politics, beliefs, and pure propaganda of a few that drives the machine to a point of madness that effects so many innocent lives and puts 'THEM', the everyday good citizen at odds and looking at each other down the length of a gun barrel to exact a point. Love the fact that these men in arms against one another in history, find each other in consolement that is monumentally as historic....if not even more so... Thanks to you both👍 Carry On...
Young guys watching out of their bunkers and saw this armada.... They just done what they have to do to survive and to protect each other. These germans didn't really fought for the ideology. They fought for their KAMERADEN (comrats) they became friends with. Severloh the other german at the picture ones summed it up very well when talked about his officer. " Icouldn't just run away. He is like my friend i couldn't let him down." It wasn't about idiology. It was about loyalty cause they knew the other Person would do the same.
Amen Robert. I so agree with you. I have a 90 minute interview with Franz Gockel that nobody has seen. Please check out my CZcams channel, VOICES OF HISTORY. You will love the stories that I have there. God bless you. www.youtube.com/@VoicesofHistory/videos
Between Franz and Heinrich, they killed and wounded many American soldiers. I have a respect for these men though, because eventually they gave their first hand accounts of what happened, which took courage. As terrible as the Third Reich was, there were average everyday soldiers who fought for the same reasons our guys did, so I hold no malice towards them. I am grateful we have their perspectives of the battle.....a perspective for history.
Thank you for your comment and for watching. You may be interested in my 2 hour film, “Return To Normandy,” which features my story with Franz Gockel. lcappetto.wixsite.com/honorstore/product-page/return-to-normandy

It’s beautiful to see those two together, it makes it feel as though all those soldiers didn’t die in vain
He was my granduncle. Rest in Peace Franz and all his comrades.

Respekt vor diesen beiden Herren!
Germans and Americans lots of respect

The Germans where also people! And they where also scared...

This is precious historical material.

Franz Gockel never cried there. Brave till his death! German soldier.
