did you start as an objective student of history, but inadvertently redpill yourself like I did ?

Are you Jewish or ethnic Jewish ?

>objective student of history
>inadvertently redpill yourself
Pick two, faggot.

Red pill is about the truth.

Would the Maus have had any use beyond being a large slow target for bombers?

Do you have a Schutzmütze? I've been searching for ages for an orig one, preferably SS

What was the standard survival kit for the Nazi Africa division? Sorry if that's not the proper term for what they were called but I'm illiterate when it comes to WW2.

No user, if I had kike blood I'd kill myself.

How many Bajillions did the Holla cost?

The Maus wouldn't be a target for bombers, you're talking about the Ratte.

Deutschland Afrika Korps abbreviated DAK

They were called the Afrika Korps.

Allthough I don't research the Holocaust, my job is to research battles and military equipment.
I beleive the Holocaust to be a lie, but if I said that publiclly, I'd be fired.

bro that's the point, I started neutral but discovered the truth

Did Hitler do anything wrong?

The DAK didn't have a survival kit, they had their rations in their bread bag aswell as other equipment such as a canteen and malaria pills.

Wasn't the Ratte just a chassis for a Karl-Gustav? Or was that the Monster?

Also did you get taken in by the Mannions repros that were flooding the market about 8 years ago?

Is it true that Hitler actually did nothing wrong.

Yes.
He lost the war.

As a poorfag I can't afford legit ww1 uniforms but interested in buying repluva uniforms out of interest. My question is would you wear replica gear casually?
As much as an m36 with or without insignia as a cadusl jacket since it's cheaper than original gear.
I am thinking if doing this.

no

The Ratte was never built I'm afraid.
The monster was a huge rail gun.

I wear my m43 every once in a while.

I call myself a WWII "enthusiast".

It gives me an open-ended excuse to walk around in my Waffen-SS uniform when I go out. It's quite a conversation piece.

I like you.
When I was a teenager I used to do the same thing, wearing a Nazi uniform and when people stopped to talk to me I said "I am simply going to a military demonstration."

There you go

Who was the biggest player in WW2?
>inb4 not soviets but muricans

Do You have any better reasoning than your countrymates on why did England do the most traitorous act of betrayal towards Poland in WW2?

Beleive it or not, Britian.
Strategically rise, they were the best, managing to fend off a large enemy for allmost 3 years, whilst suffering from severe rationing, lack of support and a lack of morale.

Was operation unthinkable possible?

*wise not rise.

Remember the 20million goyim

Cool man. Ever had anyone comment on the Nazi insgnia?

Possibly.
But the allies were more fucking concerned in making the Germans feel guilty then care about the USSR.

I remember when I was a retarded liberal and saw a little kid dressed like Hitler for Halloween.
I scolded him so hard he could barely talk while he was in tears until he pointed at his bowler hat that fell off.

Because the only thing they cared for was dismantling Germany, it was never about you. You were just an excuse.
Possibly some cheap coal from your mines to sustain their dying empire but after the war coal wasn't as relevant as oil.

What, if anything, did Hitler do wrong?

I have a spear without insignia.
I wear my m43 cap along with it, completes the Nazi-Casual look.

Man, the number of my classmates who wrote their theses on World War 2 is ridiculous. I graduated with a history degree alongside about eighty other students, and the only people who did anything in the medieval era were me and one other guy. Everyone else was World War 2.

You guys are the cancer of historians.

Name a cool half-track vehicle

The only thing hitler did wrong was that after a few lucky military moves, he thought he was God of strategy and started to not listen to his generals.
Bad idea.

lmao edgy kid detected

Is that true that americans had tons of sarin gas and were ready to gas all europe but finally just drop everything in the manche dramatically polluting it by the way.
And all this being still classified?

I'm a history graduate student would you say this is a good career

Sd.Kfz. 251
My favourite half track.

Never heard of that.
Reminds me of the Japanese plan to attack America with bubonic plague.

Do what you want.
History is the best subject in my opinion.
Researching your own people is the most redpilled thing to do.

okey-dokey, my people were farmers before they got to the US and some were farmers after they got here.

...

don't speak baguette, its fake

based

Such a beautiful war machine.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_raid_on_Bari
American "merchants" ships were full of poisonous gas. Thats a fact that burgers didn t play fair.

Panzer or Sherman?

it has a style that you will never find anywhere else only the 222 has it as well

Panzer.
Really depends what Panzerkampfwagon were talking about it, the Sherman had pretty good sloped armour but a shit gun.
A Panzer 4 or a Tiger could easily punch a hole though a Sherman.

What did the bongs gain by entering the war?

But then the Sherman Firefly came along, a Sherman with a British heavy pounder gun.
A Sherman Could take on a Tiger 1 or even a Tiger 2, but it's armour is still inferior.

Yeah, I meant Panzerkampfwagen 4.
Its gun was really superior.

Planes, Tanks and war-films.
Oh, and the downfall of Europe.
Thanks Churchill.

They were called the Afrikakorps and they had water, hershey bars and methamphetamine.

Oh! And rifles. They had rifles.

Why did the Allies bomb Germany heavier at the end of the war? They went to groups of 1000 +/- bomber raids.

The myth of issued meth isn't completely true.
It was mostly issued to Luftwaffe pilots.

>Planes, Tanks and war-films.
And it only took you up until 2006 to finally pay us for it

My understanding is that they wanted to war to end quickly.
Germany was heavily defended during the end of the war, massive concrete flak towers were erected for the defence of Germany.

These megastructures are bigger then they look, with huge underground bunkers for soldiers and civilians alike.

Oh, and another question.

Would Operation Seelowe be successfull, if Barbarosa was delayed with 1, max 2, years, and most of its resources given in the Sea Lion operation?

What do you mean by Spear?
That looks like an m40?

Sorry you're the expert not me, please explain.
Could be a greatcoat, no?

Also you didn't answer the question! if you wear that hat has anyone ever commented on the it being nazi and how did you respond?

>country which was first to use gas weapons in WWI violating international law
>Liberate their ass 2 fucking times
>complain that our ships got sunks aving their fucking ass

Now i know The germans could have been defeated without out intervention, but y'know what could not happen without our intervention? D-Day. Your asses would have been nazified extra long, germany would have retreated west , and your liberation would of been at the hands of the bolsheviks.Even today you would be part of a much larger soviet sphere of influence

Operation Sealion would of been successful if they just did it when they intended to do it.
The Battle of Britian was the only battle in ww2 on British airspace.
The Germans managed to occupy the Channel Islands, but they were more interested in Russia and desided to move on to them later.
If only they just sent in their entire Luftwaffe.

Spare not spear Jesus my typing sucks today.

all of Sup Forums are WW2 historians, sage.

oh ok that makes more sense

No one has commented, because my spare has no insignia.
If someone did I'd say it was for a military demonstration or something stupid.

How much black people fought for germany? Also how many survived the war.

Is it true that if you don't use it, you lose it?

>Implying we didn t surrender because we wanted to be nazified.

german occupation killed litteraly nobody in comparison to your "liberation".
Politic is a thing.
Dead people is another.

Well, I think in case of a quick success in Britain and a good defensive(later offensive) strategy on the Eastern front, would produce a huge blow in the morale of the allies.
The loss of Britain will also discourage USA from involving in the war, thus leaving only USSR against Germany and friends.

I wouldn't say many.
Possibly a bit more then 100,000.
This is mostly from Africa. During the North African campaign.

Did South Africans play any important roles in WW2?

My grandfathers were both diesel mechanics in the British Royal navy but they only escorted merchant ships.

Allied wise? You helped in North Africa a lot.
Axis wise? Pic related.

Is it true that the meds race was they only master race and they had to invent the aryans to mix us with the beta nord race ?

Hitler believed that Mediterianians were part of the masterrace.
To be honest, all Europeans were part of the masterrace.
Even Slavs.

I never knew that there was practical support for the Germans in WW2 from the South Africans, I knew there was political support.

You would be imprisoned here during that time if you supported the Germans and german people in Namibia and South African were internd.

My grandfathers fought for allies.

>spear
>jesus
top kek

Kek.

>severe rationing
British food rations were bigger than the German ones. They also outproduced Germans in everything despite the "severe" shortages.
The biggest player was the USA. Without its Lend-Lease WW2 would've been lost.

I hope you paid the Uniform License fee for those, lime-a-rhyme. They're watching, you know.

Exactly.
The problem is that is a bad thing.

Kek.
I like this meme.

What military had the best logistics?

Germany tbqh.

Are you happy that he did? I've seen some Saffas wish their grandparents hadn't for some reason.

...

Do you think the war would of gone differently if the Italians were given the 2 years they needed to equip and mobilize?

How hard does pic related trigger you?

Possibly.
We never got to see the full extent of Italian military potential.

Should have paid his Harmless Memorabilia License fee. No sympathy from me for freeloaders, tbqh.

It's hard finding a lot of info and photos on them.
