War Movies
Just like to share 3 fantastic movies courtesy of You Tube
I recommend them
"The hiding place"-The Ten Bon family.
"The Boat" -4 parts.
"The sinking of the Laconia"
The last 2 would affect anyone that suffers from claustrophobia so beware.
Enjoy
GB.

Re: 5. Kompanie / Panzergrenadier Division Grossdeutschland ?
Hi,my dad was in the 5th panzer division and was captured by the Soviets and spent the remainder of the war plus a couple of more years after it was over. He must have thought he'd already been sent to HELL until the GULAG. I am still trying to find some info on him with absolutely no success. Cheer...

Were revenge killings taken place either during or after the war?

SBS Australia is currently showing the doco "U Boat" (many thanks) and it was mentioned that the Germans mowed down some survivors after torpedoing their ship.I find this very hard to believe and there was no actual proof that this ever happened. Was this propaganda?Maybe someone else has ...
