    STALIN, MUSSOLINI, FRANCO, and a host of others all had their own trains. 🚂 It was something accepted in those times. U.S. Presidents, including Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt, had their own trains. Roosevelt’s train was the “Ferdinand Magellan.” President Eisenhower had a Presidential Airplane. ✈️ Today’s Presidents have Airforce One and Marine One (Marine Helicopter 🚁), and Airforce Two is the Vice President’s 🛩 Jetliner. thank you 🇺🇸 🎌 🚩 🧑‍🎤 🏁 👩‍💼👩‍🎓

    My grandfather was a wehrmacht officer stationed in Norway during the war and met and married a spicy blue eyed blonde haired babe there. My grandma! After the war he tried to stay in Norway as the bolsheviks took his family farm in east Prussia but the retribution against all things German was terrible there!! So my grandparents decided to move to the US... 25 years later their son, my father, married my mother. My mother's father was US military intelligence, the OSS, and was involved with the intelligence gathering of the POW camps, and many jewish "death camps" in Europe during and after the war (Getting onto that subject would get me banned on UA-cam for Truth speech as the facts have a way of destroying the narrative). To the point, my grandfathers who served in enemy armies became inseparable best friends until their deaths!! Both my grandfathers were a very tough breed of men, but when grandpa Heinz died in 1996 grandpa Gerald cried like a babyl! Afterwards he fell into a deep depression and his health quickly declined and died 5 months later. It hads always amazed me that former enemies could form such a close bond and become best of friends!!! I miss them greatly and listening to their stories of the war and hearing the things that today are considered "racist" and "antisemtic"!

    The series 52 Kriegslokomotive deserves its own video. As it's one of the few areas where Germany very successfully adopted the "quantity" approach, building a very much simplified version of the Einheitslokomotive ("standard locomotive") series 01 and 02 that was initially only meant for a service life of 5 years while also working in the harsh cold conditions of Russia (temperatures down to -35°C), which many other models could not. Out of about 7000 units built, the USSR kept over 2000 after the war also as a strategic reserve, many more by other eastern bloc countries, the GDR used them till October 1988, and some were kept serviceable for over 50 years, 5 are known to be still in use in former Yugoslavia.

    As far as I have been able to find out, Ike never got close enough to a battle to ever hear the sound of guns fired in anger. Winston actually fought in several battles. Bradley's experience was somewhere between the two. As far as I can tell, he never got into a battle, but he did get close enough to hear gunfire.

    Churchill knew firearms from the outside, like a British aristocrat would, i.e. as a pleasant toy. I appreciate his facility with guns, and do not want to demean him. However, the Americans, especially Bradly, knew firearms from the inside, i.e., from the cradle, they both grew up as shooters. Their skills honed by years at West Point and as officers, required to requalify on firearms yearly. I firmly believe that a Yank "won" the shoot-off.

He saw more combat than him. Although Eisenhower had a problem...he was so good, his commanding Generals always requested him for their personal staffs throughout his career, almost making him quit the Army.

    They brought them back from Argentina?? Had not heard this before, but it is hard to believe the end was so chaotic and not thought out. Add to that a Bormann who was dead also but then found in Argentina, plus compelling testimony of people there. It seems to me he died in Argentina though that is merely my feeling. How could so many escape and yet some of the head figures commited suicide taking their whole family. So much of what we have been told just does not add up. The Russians surely were no help in clearing this matter.
