an american soldier has a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR). Okinawa, 1945 The BAR was designed in 1917 by the weapons designer John Browning. It was a replacement for the French Chauchat machine gun. The BAR was originally intended as a light automatic rifle, but with many modifications, including a bipod, it started its career as a machine gun. #ww2 #ww2history #ww2pictures #japan #okinawa #1945 #BAR #chauchat #ww2guns #Rifle #1917 - @ww2_grey_pictures on Instagram

On June 1, 1945, Polish soldiers in the French occupation forces were on guard in the Altshausen military prison, where he had been locked up. Dirlewanger was beaten to death by ex-prisoners from an extermination camp. This news was kept hidden at the beginning, and so many rumors and legends arose around his death. The French buried Dirlewangers body on June 19, 1945. . Il 1º giugno 1945, soldati polacchi inquadrati nelle forze di occupazione francesi erano di guardia nella prigione militare di Altshausen, dove era stato rinchiuso. Dirlewanger fu bastonato a morte da ex prigionieri di un campo di sterminio.Questa notizia fu tenuta nascosta allinizio, e così molte voci e leggende nacquero attorno alla sua morte. I francesi seppellirono il corpo di Dirlewanger il 19 giugno 1945. . #historyww2#dirlewangerdivision #french#ww2german#1945#ss #ww2photos#photographer#ita #tagsforlikesapp#photography #historia#blackandwhite#photos #ww2history#wehrmacht#soldier #panzergrenadier#polish#black - @picturesof_ww2 on Instagram

As close as I will ever come to a real life super hero, this is my Granddad Major Edwin Picknell. Reading his diary that he wrote and hid whilst in POW camps, moved me to tears. He fought so that we could have everything that we have today. He fought with African regiments and saw the good in the everyday Italian and German soldiers who held him captive, a tolerance that many today could also do with #veday #hero - @grantpicknell on Instagram

Waffen SS soldiers in eastern front @regiment_germania . 🇺🇸The Waffen-SS (SS Fighters) were an armed force of Nazi Germany born in March 1933 as a military arm of the SS. From the initial adoption of a rigid racial and physical selection of their members, it was spent in the last years of the Second World War to also recruit foreign volunteers of German ethnicity or however ideologically linked to National Socialism despite their origin. The Waffen-SS participated in almost all the battles of the Second World War; their soldiers gave proof of combativeness, efficiency and strong ideological motivation to the point that, on the one hand, they were guilty of brutal episodes of summary violence against civilians and prisoners of war and, on the other, often showed an excessive and reckless disdain for danger. . . . 🇮🇹Le Waffen-SS (SS Combattenti) erano una forza armata della Germania nazista nata nel marzo 1933 come braccio militare delle SS. Dalliniziale adozione di una rigida selezione razziale e fisica dei loro componenti, si passò negli ultimi anni della seconda guerra mondiale ad arruolare anche volontari stranieri di etnia tedesca o comunque ideologicamente legati al Nazionalsocialismo nonostante la loro provenienza. Le Waffen-SS parteciparono a quasi tutte le battaglie della seconda guerra mondiale; i loro soldati diedero prova di combattività, efficienza e forte motivazione ideologica al punto che, da una parte, esse si macchiarono di efferati episodi di violenza sommaria contro civili e prigionieri di guerra e, dallaltra, sovente dimostrarono un eccessivo e sconsiderato sprezzo del pericolo. . . . #war #ww2 #ww #ss #worldwar2 #worldwarii #worldwar2german #wehrmacht #waffenss #warsaw #warm #worldwartwo #worldwar2photos #world #gun #soldier #history #ww1 #ww2history #soviet #follow #ww1 #secondworldwar #warhistory #_germanww2_ #worldwar2history #germany🇩🇪 - @world.war_2_germany on Instagram

British soldiers of the 12th Battalion, East Surrey Regiment, are working in a communication trench in Ploegsteert Wood. 11th June 1917, Battle of Messines. —— In the part closer to the camera in the trench, you see 4 soldiers looking at a map, perhaps preparing for their next advance. —— Lots of their equipment hangs on the sides of the trench, including a PH Hood gas mask bag. This was rather unusual as but that time in 1917 almost all troops would’ve just had the newer Small Box Respirator, meaning one of those soldiers still was using the PH Hood. —— The PH Hood/Helmet (PH meaning Phenate Hexamine) was an early British Gas mask of WW1, introduced in July 1915 after the ghastly Second Battle of Ypres which brought in chemical warfare. A funny part about this gas mask is when you use the exhale valve it makes a funny sound.

Could France really beat Germany in ? The Saar offensive. In 1939, Germany invaded Poland which, according to legend, was abandoned by the British wanting peace at all cost and the French cowards. This is of course false, but there are also reasons why the French did not attack Germany in September 1939. First of all, it should be said that for the possible French attack which will take place in the Saar, only 9 divisions could be liberated, consequence of the total lack of preparation of the French army, both in mobilization and in equipment. When they crossed the German border on September 7, the French, after advancing a few kilometers, came across thousands of mines, bridges and cut trees and other traps. The losses are so important in the minefields that the French are sometimes forced to retreat. The French only fell on abandoned villages where everything important was destroyed and a few German soldiers who inflicted however 2000 losses on the French who only had time to approach the Siegfried line. In mid-September, faced with the weak advance of the units engaged and the situation in Poland, the French high command ordered its troops to fall back behind the Maginot line. We will now see why the French did not rush regardless of the losses towards the interior of Germany. First of all, you have to understand the French strategy. They come out traumatized by the 1st world war and base their strategies on defense, behind the Maginot line which absorbed a significant part of the national budget. It is simply impossible for the French to abandon the Maginot line. In addition, on the German side, the defenses are well organized. The Siegfried line, although less powerful than the Maginot line, is still impressive for the french. Further south, the Rhine river and the mountains of the thick black forest prevent any intrusion. The 22 German divisions of Army Group C under General Van Leeb guarding the French border would have had ample time to delay, with limited assistance from the Siegfried Line, the French offensive, Belgium and the Netherlands being still neutral to the time.

The Battle of Kiev (Aug. 23 – Sept. 26 1941) . The Battle of Kiev was fought between the German Army Group South and the Red Army during Operation Barbarossa. While the German Army Group Central had successfully captured the cities of Minsk and Smolensk, Army Group South faced more resistance in their advance. On the 3th of August, the führer had given the controversial order to Heinz Guderian that Army Group Central’s 2nd Panzer army and 2nd Infantry army had to stop their advance onto Moscow and support Army Group South in their encirclement of Kiev. . The battle of Kiev started on the 23th of August. The strategy was again to trap the Soviet’s Army groups in a large pocket. The Germans were in the advantage because they had complete air superiority and the Red Army had lost a significant amount of tanks in previous battles. By the 1st of September, the circle started to shape itself around the Red Army troops and the order was given by the Soviet’s High Command that every army group had to hold their line. By September 13, the 9th and the 3th panzer division made contact with each other east of Kiev, completing the encirclement. Inside the pocket there was no communication and mass confusion among the Red Army soldiers. This was made even worse when the Germans started trapping every encircled group into their own small pocket. The Red Army soldiers were under constant artillery, tank and air bombardment. On the 19th of September, the city of Kiev surrenders and seven days later all the trapped army groups surrendered to the Germans. A small group of Red Army soldiers managed to escape, but most of them were either killed, captured or missing. . The battle of Kiev was a massive success for the Axis powers and a huge blow for the Soviets. Around 616,000 Soviets were killed, captured or missing and the Red Army lost 2,5 full army groups. The encirclement trapped over 450,000 soldiers, which made it the largest human encirclement in military history. . . Was it a strategic succes or not? Comment below! 👇 .
