Captured Film -- Germany Invades Poland 1939
Vložit

- The invasion of Poland gave rise to modern warfare that was literally powered by the internal combustion engine. Blitzkrieg (German, "lightning war" listen is an anglicised word describing all-motorised force concentration of tanks, infantry, artillery, combat engineers and air power, concentrating overwhelming force at high speed to break through enemy lines, and, once the lines are broken, proceeding without regard to its flank. Through constant motion, the blitzkrieg attempts to keep its enemy off-balance, making it difficult to respond effectively at any given point before the front has already moved on.
During the interwar period, aircraft and tank technologies matured and were combined with systematic application of the German tactics of infiltration and bypassing of enemy strong points. When Germany invaded Poland in 1939, Western journalists adopted the term blitzkrieg to describe this form of armoured warfare.

Same thing again. Now we have Ukraine and Russia ........ Ukraine nazis vs Russia soviets.
What is most amazing is the technology of the 1930s and 40s. The aerial reconnaissance taken by the German bomber is stunning. That's large format photos literally equalling almost an entire roll of 35mm film - Just for one picture! That's a far far higher resolution than most of todays digital cameras. And they basically took a picture every second. (HOLY SHIT!)
great people
technological great
Old black and white photos basically have an unlimited numbers of pixels.
Today it's russia who are the modern day nazis. Although they are now reduced to using the same weapons from this era. Russian soldiers also crossed the border with food rations that expired 40 years ago and the medical kits in their tanks are from world war 2, just like their tanks.

Wrong, wrong , wrong! They were NAZI's from Germany!
@@nightlightabcd True, 90% of Germans voted for Nazis hence they were practically all Nazis. The ones that didn't vote for Hitler, were Jews, Gypsies, and minorities. Nazi was just a party, National Socialist (German Communist LOL), so we cannot say that Nazis started WWII, but it was Germany. When the US invaded Iraq, no one says Republicans invaded Iraq hahahaha lOL.
don't forget that A.Hitler was Austrian.
Because the term "NAZI" with all derivatives is invented from "NAZional" therefore the term "InterNAZI" with all derivatives is invented from InterNAZIonal. In this terminology Germany is NAZI, Britain and France so called allies are InterNAZI. Please note Red InterNAZIonal USSR is Red InterNAZI USSR. This is reason why the term NAZI is not was using in Red Propaganda by Red USSR. Now Europe is dead due to simple InterNAZIsm - leftism - antifaism.
This is how history has been manipulated . Everybody hears Poland was invaded by Germany but never is said that at the same time the Soviet invaded Poland from East

At the end it was Ukrainian una gangsters who killed 100 thousand of polish civilians in 1943, not soviet. Don't forget soviet defended Brest for longer than polish army an entire Poland.

Poland needed the helps from French and England but outside declared war to the Gemany but they did little things to help Poland eventhoug the main troops of the Germany were in Poland, the result were Poland were deafetted by Gemany in one month, but some months later the Germany moved their troops to West and defeatted the French in some weeks too hehehehe

I'm reading 'Bloodlands' by Timothy Snyder, a horrifying account of how Poland (and Eastern Europe) was crushed by both Germany and the USSR. It was worse than you could imagine.
After they attacked Germany knowing they couldn't back themselves up
What are you talking about? Was Poland defeated by the USSR and Germany? Well, what else can you expect from a person if he reads anti-communist and anti-Soviet propaganda instead of serious historical literature. Yes, Soviet troops crossed the border after Germany defeated the Polish army and the Polish government fled abroad! Poland no longer existed as a state, Germany occupied Brest, which, according to the Molotov-Ribbentrop treaty, was supposed to remain in the zone of influence of the USSR. If the USSR had hesitated a little longer, the Germans would have spat on the MR pact altogether, occupied the entire territory of Poland and would have put their troops on the borders of the USSR. And it was not so easy to force the Germans to move back to the line indicated in the MR pact, to give Brest. The USSR, because of its generous expectations, was at an extremely disadvantage. And no one from Western countries helped Poland, despite the agreements! No one helped, and now they all accuse the USSR of being allied with Germany and of unleashing the 2nd World War! And they are blamed for the occupation of Poland, despite the fact that the lands occupied by the USSR should not have belonged to Poland at all! Poland itself occupied these lands 20 years ago - western Ukraine, western Belarus, part of Lithuania with the capital Vilnius (Vilna). What happened to Poland in 1939 was solely the fault of the Polish authorities, who, after the joint unbanking of Czechoslovakia with Germany, calculated that Poland and Germany were now friends for a century!
О чем ты говоришь? Была ли Польша побеждена СССР и Германией? Ну а чего еще можно ожидать от человека, если он вместо серьезной исторической литературы читает антикоммунистическую и антисоветскую пропаганду. Да, советские войска пересекли границу после того, как Германия разгромила польскую армию, а польское правительство бежало за границу! Польша больше не существовала как государство, Германия оккупировала Брест, который, согласно договору Молотова-Риббентропа, должен был оставаться в зоне влияния СССР. Если бы СССР еще немного помедлил, немцы бы вообще плюнули на пакт о ненападении, оккупировали всю территорию Польши и выставили бы свои войска к границам СССР. И не так-то просто было заставить немцев отойти назад на линию, указанную в пакте МР, отдать Брест. СССР, из-за своих щедрых ожиданий, оказался в крайне невыгодном положении. И никто из западных стран не помог Польше, несмотря на договоренности! Никто не помог, а теперь все обвиняют СССР в союзе с Германией и развязывании 2-й мировой войны! И их обвиняют в оккупации Польши, несмотря на то, что земли, оккупированные СССР, вообще не должны были принадлежать Польше! Польша сама оккупировала эти земли 20 лет назад - западную Украину, западную Белоруссию, часть Литвы со столицей Вильнюс (Вильно). То, что случилось с Польшей в 1939 году, было исключительно виной польских властей, которые после совместного с Германией отделения Чехословакии от банков подсчитали, что Польша и Германия теперь друзья на столетие!
@@DmitryTihomirow you migh want to learn some history, too. You spit out manipulated one-sided non-sense. The division of polish territory regained after partitions from the 18th century (when Poland was erased from the map) between Germans and Soviets was planned by them and that was together with extermination of the people to ensure it never re-emerges again as an independent nation. Invasion is invasion, and Poland was not yet conquered completely when the Russians attacked, pillaging, raping and torturing and murdering seized and disarmed intelligentsia and leaders. It was the attack from the east coupled with the incursion from the west that dealt the final blow to a state that regained its independence 20 years before that after more than 100 years of occupation and persecution. After which blow both occupying forces implemented the policy of erasing the Polish nation and culture and history, and they largely succeeded judging by how well you know the real history of these events. But politics always writes its own version of what happened to serve the interests of those who happen to be able to tell the story.

French army of more than 2 million was defeated in six weeks. Polish army of up to 1 million fought against Germany, Russia and Slovakia for 5 weeks
a qoute from the german history book? Give me a break. Poland fought for 5 weeks as Roman has mentioned. Sure, after 2 weeks germans had conquered great majority of the country, but it was their tactics "blitzkrieg". They tried to capture as fast as possible the easier parts, and then finish with resisting regions. But whole campaign tooked almost 5 weeks. from 20-26 september Poles won the battle of Bzura its far more than 2 weeks. The last battle with regular polish troops tooked place near the city of Kock from 2-6 of OCTOBER sir! Poles had won that battle too. Despite all those facts Hitler had considered his campaign as fast victory.
to be honest with the battle of bzura - after a great beginnig where the germans moved back, finally poles had to retreat to Warsaw. But the dates are correct :)
Roman Sterzycki but you still lost, do you want a bagel now ? Also are you kidding Slovakia really ? They barely had an army

Afganistan barely had an army...
KowalskyLeon first of all I didn’t deny Stalin’s atrocities and crimes. Second of all I made the poles after WWII bow down to the USSR and made Poland my bitch for half a century, lastly Afghanistan isn’t called the graveyard of empires for nothing and if you actually read history empires who invaded Afghanistan always lose since the terrain is too extreme and NATO is in Afghanistan over a decade and can’t defeat a bunch of potato farmers using antique rifles.

Who's here after Putin just invaded Ukraine?
Small interesting detail in this video:
The white cross on german military vehicles in 1939 was an old version of the "balkenkreuz". Later in the war they painted it black with the famous thin white borders because the white cross rendered them too distinguishable a target to the enemy; the original white cross also made it difficult to identify friendlies in the desert during The North African campaign.
"balkenkreuz"---> "bar cross"

at the same time its important that Auschwitz is preserved for future generations, no one should ignore/forget what happened there and in other concentration/death camps in Poland. I was quite speechless when I visited the sites there and especially the museum of Auschwitz I...when I saw pictures of orphan children whose parents were killed or taken away to camps on the walls there it nearly made me cry. and the remants of Auschwitz-Birkenau....well until you visit the place yourself its difficult to describe even if you have seen the videos and pictures of the place.

If you really want to go back that far, you should go back ALL THE WAY. The history of Gdansk starts in the 1st century BC when the region was first settled by Germans (hence the name "Gothiscandza"). The Goths then left the region during the Migration Period and slavs migrated to the region.
In the 10th century, there eventually was a little Slavic village consisting of a dozen earth huts called "Gyddanyzc". It was settled by Pruzzians, Kashubians and Viking traders (probably Danes, hence the name) in 997 conquered py Polish duke Mieszko I.
Following this conquest, the village Gyddanyzc was indeed governed from a castle by Polish nobles for a good 200 years.
But within the town itself, Poles were always just a minority. In the early 13th century, Gdansk even belonged to Denmark - so you see, when a town or region belongs to a certain noble under feudalistic law that doesn''t really mean anything. Using your logic, most of Europe (and the Levant) should belong to France because almost everything was governed by a French noble at some point.
Anyways, in the 12th century, a lot of Germans migrated back to the region of Gothiscandza and founded a new trading town, next to Gyddanyzc. In 1224, this new German town was granted the city rights according to the Lübeck Law. In 1227, the Germans founded a benedictine cloister and these two elements (the trading town and the cloister) laid the basis for modern Danzig.
After that, the feudalistic affiliation of Danzig changed a few times (From 1271 to 1280 it belonged to Brandenburg, for example). But the course was set. From 13th century to the deportation of the Germans in 1946, the city was continuously inhabited by a German majority and became German in its core. As part of the Hansa League, the city flourished and in the year 1500, Danzig was by far the largest German city. It's also one of the primary cities of Prussia - the core of the modern German nation.
So to sum it up: Yes, there was a Slavic village there before Danzig existed. But by the 20th century, there was absolutely no doubt which nation Danzig belonged to. The Slavic village played basically no role at all in Polish history - it was literally just a small Pruzzian/Kashubian fishing village that happened to be conquered by a Polish duke. But the Germans built the town of Danzig, made it a great city and a centre of German culture. If you look at the old buildings in the downtown of Danzig, you'll find that 99 % of them were built by Germans.
@@aurorasdawn4681 I don't know why you summarize my stories and beat me up. In the first statement you said that it was the Poles who started this "mess". Which is idiotic in itself. Gdańsk, border lands, treatment of citizens. It was just an excuse anyway. The war would have started anyway. The forces that prepared Germany for the invasion of Poland and other countries already testified to this. That it was not about one city. What else are you going to say? That the Hitler is a hero?
Interesting historical footage.
Yes, especially all the horses! In WW2!
@@villagecarpenter2266 That's a clue as to how overblown the German army was made out to be. History class will teach you they were this GIANT nation taking over the world one territory at a time lol. They literally had f'ing horses... HORSES.
@@EQOAnostalgia Yea, after a little research I found out that no other army used as many horses as the Germans! Go figure. They couldn't produce enough military vehicles in time before Hitler decided it was time to go so they went with what they had.
@@villagecarpenter2266 The German Wehrmacht had only ammunition for 3 weeks in Poland. Germany was not really prepared for a war.

how can you forget to murder millions in a beastly way, rob the whole country and ruin, destroy the capital almost completely, and nowadays the Germans say ... we do not deserve anything ... that these are unjustified claims that it doesn't matter that we robbed you, we destroyed, we murdered..no, nothing happened ...
Polish pressure the Germans in the southern and eastern districts were subjected to oppressive treatment. On Aug. 19 1920 the Poles felt strong enough, indeed, to make an attempt to seize the country by force. On all sides bands of Poles, chiefly recruited from Congress Poland, usurped authority. A number of Germans were forcibly carried across the frontier into Poland, and many were killed.
“Poland wants war with Germany and Germany will not be able to avoid it even if she wants to.” Polish Marshal Rydz-Smigly as reported in the Daily Mail, August 6th, 1939
Calling your BS: 0:58 "The record of a nation overrun in just days." It took 35 days before the united forces of Germany and the USSR defeated Poland.
@@theducklover2652 No - last battle was in October. Warsaw held up for 4 weeks. It could be a bit longer but France declared end of operations against Germany thus Polish command saw no sense of resisting longer knowing its all for nothing. For example Hel surrendered on October 1st b/c its commander wanted to surrender in October not September - there was noting forcing him - other then luck of any chance for victory.
This has better quality than my schools Chromebook camera
SAME!!!
Where did they film this from? The first few scenes dont make sense in regard of perspective and angle.
Superb video quality and very intriguing to watch. Thank you for sharing... Have subscribed
I think the photography in those days was so very good. They actually managed to get panoramic shots of many people and machines doing things. And the sound quality is amazing - the sounds of the guns at about 3:00, and explosions later on, you can sense the ground shaking. Modern films of war, they are mostly poor shots of single incidents, with the crackle of distant gunfire and thud of the odd bomb, less impressive than fireworks.
keep in mind a lot of WW2 images have been remastered
The sounds were almost all recreated in a studio. Very few cameras had microphones until the 1960s.

Stalin in 1939: “Not Germany attacked France and England, but France and England attacked Germany”
Stalin congratulated Hitler with a telegram on the day of the capture of Paris! Calling it a “just victory over French imperialism.” If Germany finds herself in a difficult situation, she can be sure that the Soviet people will come to Germany's aid and will not allow Germany to be strangled. "The Soviet Union is interested in a strong Germany and will not allow Germany to be thrown to the ground."
I. Stalin, 09/28/1939 Stalin congratulated Hitler on his victory over Poland At the end of 1939 in December 31st, Stalin and Hitler exchanged New Year's greetings.
Hitler - Stalin: "Best wishes for prosperity to you, as well as future prosperity to the peoples of the friendly Soviet Union"

Fascinating. The contrast to how many vehicles they're using compared to the end of the war when they were using a lot of horse drawn transports. The camera work USUALLY consisting of staging areas or the aftermath of a battle and now days we can attach a camera to our helmet and get raw combat footage.
These are propaganda videos taken and released by the Germans, then re-edited by the British. Of course they'll show as many tanks and motorized units as possible.
The music. Like the westerns we watched in the 50s. I'm expecting Roy Rogers to save the day.

I wonder how many of the soldiers shown in the first few minutes of the video were still alive in May 1945..?
They wound up dying by the thousands on the Russian front, Poland was a walk in the park and led them to think nothing could stop them,
It’s crazy to look at these soldiers in 1939 and see proud warriors who had a purpose, but by 1945 were almost all dead. the ones who managed to survive were unrecognizable, and fighting for the survival of Germany.
