Clips of Note:

Triumph of the Will and the Cinematic Language of Propaganda Folding Ideas

1935Triumph of the Will The Power of Propaganda One Hundred Years of Cinema (Used entirely for HQ Triumph of The Will footage as all the downloads I could find were 240p at best for some reason. Wouldn’t recommend this one though as it’s a much lesser quality rip off of the Folding Ideas video with the intro almost taken line for line from him.)

ArmA 3 - Red Army Ambush | Machinima - Tiger

Before you ask, here’s the footage of the Bongs fighting the Comms. A training film from the 80s called “A Soviet Encounter”

Killing the ‘Clean’ Wehrmacht: The Reality of the German Army and the Holocaust by Dr Waitman Beorn

Basil Collier, “Was Hitler really forced into war?”, New York Times Archive digitized article, May 30, 1971,

"Contemporary German militarism flourished briefly with its recent ally, National Socialism, as well as or better than it had in the generals of the past. Many of these have made a mockery of the soldier's oath of obedience to military orders. When it suits their purpose they say they had to obey; when confronted with Hitler's brutal crimes which are shown to have been within their general knowledge, they say they disobeyed. The truth is they actively participated in all these crimes, or sat silent and acquiescent, witnessing the commission of crimes on a scale larger and more shocking than the world has ever had the misfortune to know." -Arthur Comyns Carr
