Third Battle of Kharkov: How The Germans Set a Deadly Trap for Russian Troops

I really hate those computer generated voice overs. I had to quit once it came to "A U S F G. It's a shame because the content of the video is really good.

Never mind the hundreds of thousands of peasant soldiers slaughtered so the elites can play their games

If the Germans Radio comms hadn't been intercepted the following battle of Kursk would have been a similar victory and who knows what would have happened on the Eastern Front... possibly a negotiated peace in 1944.

why fuck with Russia it always ends the same... you get fucked up!

Manstain.

If the Sixth had been decimated they would of had 30k causality as a Army they were Annihilated

👍

most of this footage is useless.

Keep this in mind too…. At this very moment the US 2nd Corp had just been wrecked at Kasserine and the UBoats were at their most destructive point of the war… so Stalingrad or not, Germans would have had a lot to be hopeful about.

I can't imagine fighting in subzero weather.

So good propaganda .. its not working .. slava russia

Was this narrated by AI?Jeez, if I knew my name was going to get pronounced Man-stain forevermore, I'd have shot myself as well 😅

Using AI voice. Downvoted

Just read the script yourself.

Geez, I cannot stand the barage of mispronunciations any longer!

Very informative video. Very well put together and your narrative was easy to follow and understand. I'm now a loyal subscriber.

Man this comment section is stuffed full of nazi lovers

Computer narration sucks

His ”manshstain” makes me click this video off.

Lol 8:1 advantage yeah sure who said that? Mr meinstien very reliable source..

Is Kharkov and Kharkiv the same?

Monsters VS Beasts.

What a huge defeat for the Red Army, even outnumbering the Germans 8 to 1....and fighting the battle at home. with all the necessary resources at their disposal ! Manstein was the greatest strategic genius of WW2, in spite of Hitler's continual meddling with demential orders.

Brazil,
Glória aos soldados alemães que lutaram e tombaram na ww2.

Does it mean that the Germans
Didn't know that Hitler was mad?

In the end the germans got

A major difference: the germans new winter clothing! An impressive improvement! Not to mention the quallity and determination of SS leaders and soldiers.

Hello historians...If there's a WW2 veteran in Leesburg and that's what Leesburg is known for his last name must be Lee! Leesburg VA is and will always be known for the Lee's Utube is bad wrong

Ida Lee must have been a WW2 veteran 😂😂😂 Leesburg VA! Not anything else....Lee! You don't like it change the name of the town!

World War II, was 90% about the Eastern Front. Many still imagine that Normandy was of any decisive importance.

Kharkov and Kasserine pass will be remembered in Military History forever…

Destroying 52 soviet divisions? 52?? Are you kidding? I'd like to know your sources my dear.

Kharkov is getting liberated by Russia for the second time in history, now at this very moment.
Is that the reason why the YT algoritme send me this video? 🤔🤔

I noticed Manstein didn't greet Hitler with Nazi salute.

How about this: Hitler and Jefferson Davis both lost largely because they failed to appreciate defending the line of opposition with screening forces while keeping the main strength concentrated in the rear for the counter-attack. By refusing to give up ground, mainly for symbolic considerations, they played into the hands of the enemy. Just a thought.

เยอรมันโง่ที่เปิดศึก 2ด้าน ถ้ารบด้านนึงด้านใดไปก่อนให้ชนะเบ็ดเสร็จ ก็ไม่ต้องแบ่งกำลังทหารเป็น 2ทาง

Hitler just lost the VI army of Von Paulus, and would have made the same mistake soon after!

This is one of the Germans last hurrahs before Kursk and retreat. By the time it was D-Day the German Army was living on past glory. But still an Army not to be taken lightly.

Here to learn more about history after playing Hell let loose.

Unsere tapferen Soldaten 😊🇩🇪

Siviet troops*

bot bs

Over extended supply line - certain defeat, Moscow, Stalingrad

Wouldn't it be nice to see a Map or two?

Not good

존경합니다 !!!!!!!

the correct name is Kharkiv. because it turns out that you are transliterating a personal Ukrainian name of Ukrainian city through a russian language

ХАРКІВ СОВЕТ СОЮЗА СССР 1943

Thanks for this 👍

In the end, the Nazis were crushed and Berlin was entered. That is the most important event. Everything else, like this video, is just partial details that the defeated use to convince themselves that they were something important, not the weather, snow, etc. haha.
