You probably would have died

He's American, so I wouldn't say that's too likely. American casualty rates could be quite notoriously low so long as you weren't thrown into their minimal disastrous operations.

Pathetic

I LOOOVE YOUUUUUU JESUUUUUUUUS-

but seriously this was fucking touching

It is, and I would absolutely fuck a nine month pregnant Anne Frank so hard and so many times that she'd go into labor, but that can wait. Every day the Third Reich draws breath adds thousands more like that poor girl to the body count. We can have the baby boom once the war is won, but until then, we've got work to do.

TL;DR Get off your ass and fight!

t. tradition in my family since the Civil War. Confederate ancestor avoided marrying his wife until after he was sent home as an invalid (lost most of his hand at Gettysburg) because he was afraid she'd be left a widow and that any children he had might become a distraction. Everyone in my family that has been in the military since then has waited until they left service to marry.

You woudln't have been drafted at age 54 you dumb cunt. You're a fucking moron.

>Tfw nothing in life to fight for
Dying for a grand cause alongside your brothers is the closest weve got to ultimate meaning. A shame ill never have that feel

Actually towards the end of WWII Germany was recruiting children and old men because all the adults of fighting age were already at war.

wow what a nice bluepill that would have been

Us army tends to recall officers iirc, the us army was massively downsized in between the two world wars so they definitely would have reactivated former experts methinks.

In light of this new infromation, I would like to retract my allegation that you are a fucking moron.

lol I would definately have been vapourised on the Somme. No escaping that.

Not-so-fun fact: One third of combat age males in France died during WW1.

Indeed, the fact that there's no cause that I feel is worthy enough to pledge my life and sword to has brought me a great deal of shame.

For a while, I entertained the thought that /pol/ was onto something and that Donald Trump and MAGA might've finally been the one (or at least close), but it seems to have sputtered out. The man's just repeating the same crap as his predecessors with a slightly different spin on it.

...

even unfunner fact

68% of males born in the soviet union in 1923 were dead by 1946, half of those deaths happened before the war even began.

Holy shit

>ywn be the Russian sniper who removes anonkommandant's brain from his head as punishment for his terrible crimes

Also, how many instances of German soldiers (SS in particular) having bastards with Jewish women are there? I read of one account of that happening post-war.

Holy shit no way.
lel

Yeah but they were commies so they're not even really people.

Not everyone in the USSR was a communist. Just like not everyone in the US is a dirty corporatist jew.

its discussed here, a couple of historians fact check a claim that 80% died and came up with these numbers and discuss why they were so high

>I had finished between 1:30 am and 2 am and was then left to find my section, the Battalion now being in position. Copse Trench where we were to be, I found empty but just before daylight found my Company and section behind the front line parapet in shell holes and short shallow temporary trenches. Some of the fellows were digging themselves little funk holes. I chanced to ask Lieutenant Wardill what time zero was. He told me 7:30 am much to my surprise, as we expected to it to be just before dawn.

>Our bombardment started at 3:30 am and the big guns were certainly off it, mostly dropping in our own wire. The Germans soon replied and gave us probably better than we received. They seemed to know precisely where we were, for that "old gun" or guns from Gommecourt searched for us in and behind that front line most methodically. They dropped all around the lip of our shell hole, but never got one in but the sections on each side of us suffered severely. I got the bacon and as I was making my breakfast it was smothered in muck.

>At around 7:15 am I looked to see what the section on the right had done and saw the trench filled up with Wardill standing up dead and partially burned. Then I saw the first wave going over, so we got into the front line and followed at 7:25 am. I found Captain Colley in the fron bay and asked him the correct time, he pulled out his watch but could scarcely hold it, so shattered were his nerves. The poor fellow followed us all the same and was killed before he got very far. Our parapet was literally swept by machine gun and sharpnel fire and a large proportion only got a few yards.

>Previously the German bombardment of four hours had proved very deadly with section being wiped out almost completely. I was among the first of the wave to get over and I noticed Devey, now thought missing, was ahead of me and apparently off his head, for with his rifle slung and thumbs in arm pits he was just shouting and swearing. Tommy Webster followed me. I stumbled several times in our barbed wire, and cursed freely, but probably these stumbles saved my life time after time.

>Ahead I saw the first wave badly attenuated now but forming a well-dressed line lying down as near as safely could to our barrage. So Webster and I took cover in a shell hole about 20 yards behind. When the barrage lifted and first wave went forward I closed up and joined them. I have a recollection of Webster grinning at me with his face covered with blood.

>The din of machine guns all round us was infernal but of the deadly missiles themselves I was quite unconscious and the idea of getting killed never struck me at all. In taking cover in that shell hole half way over I became aware of a terrible dry throat so resorted to my water bottle. On arriving at the German wire I found it quite untouched in front of me, but seeing what appeared to be an opening on the right about 40 yards away I made for that. There I found a series of shell holes and destroyed it half way across, but the other half was impenetrable. I found some A Company machine gunners here with their Lewis's and also a few bombers. There were eight of us in all.

>The Germans were right on top of their parapets behind their wire, which was so thick it almost his them. They even brought up a machine gun there to face us. We made good rifle practice for a time accounting for several of them till they took more careful cover. One of our group was killed. One shot through the face and he bolted straight back for our lines with blood streaming through a ghastly hole in his cheek. I dont think he ever got back.

>Another fellow was shot later through the hand and one in the afternoon wounded in the forearm. I was not long before the German machine gun was apparently knocked out by one of our shells for it never fired afterwards. We were subjected to showers of stick grenades but they got none actually in our hole. Soon after arriving here I had to have another swig at my water. Never have I experienced such a parched mouth and throat.

>After we got over the Germans placed a fearful barrage of fire on our 1st and 2nd line preventing anyone else getting to us, only an odd man or two of the 3rd and 4th waves reached us. I looked back and saw our trench bridges flying hundreds of feet in the air. The enemy all afternoon were sweeping No Man's Land as near up their own line as they dared with shrapnel getting our fellows lying out in the open and even some us lying right in their wire. I dug a short trench of a few feet out of the crater we were in, into their wire, and this made nice cover for my head and body if I sat down.

>At first I kept a good look out for an attack from behind, but presently spent most of the afternoon dozing. The other fellows wanted to beat a retreat before dark and actually started out to do so in spite of my persuasion, for they feared being bombed out at dusk. They soon thought better of it however. A sniper only a few yards away but unseen actually called out 'Sheffield's pass us some water' and he was shooting our wounded too.

>The star shells had been going up for about a quarter of an hour when I left and I was the last. I should have stopped longer still but I saw a form creeping through the wire towards me. It was in all probability a German. I might have shot him easily but refrained just on the chance it might be one of our fellows

>I made tracks darting from shell hole to shell hole. In the 180 yards back by a judicious use of craters I think I did the odd eighty in the open. By waiting for a star shell to just go out and a burst of shrapnel to pass over then making another dart for cover I got back untouched, Our front lines were full of wounded fellowd. I helped a couple into the sap in Mark Copse and bound up their wounds. I then made tracks for Staff Copse. There were some ghastly messes in Cateau, forms in the bottom of the trench and several times in feeling if they were alive, my hand would be plunged into a gory mess of flesh, once the neck of a headless trunk. I encountered loose limbs too.

>I could get no water that night except a few drops that I found in bottles lying about. I slept in the open in Staff Copse that night and had a good rest. The Docter seemed hard at work all the time with a continuous stream of wounded coming in.

Yes, but you are also vaccinated against terrible diseases that ravaged humanity for centuries and don't have to worry about invading armies raping your family to death before your eyes.

You will not die of some elementary shit like a peptic ulcer or a broken leg.

It's not that bad, man.

>tfw you'll never save her in some sort of time machine

But would you pull a reverse Terminator by conceiving John Connor with her?

How would one go about it though?

Just pluck Anne out of the attic or the train? Or some excessively extravagant plan involving unnecessary acts of bravado to impress her?

Personally to satiate my hero fantasies , I'd opt for the latter. Maybe go back in time and offer a group of world-renowned warriors (the 300 Spartans, Samurai, Teutonic Order, Apache, Winged Hussars, Continental Army, VMI Cadets at New Market etc.) the honor to prove themselves deserving of the nobility, courage, and virtue they are associated with by attacking the train and saving a poor innocent child from certain death. The ultimate triumph of the ancient traditions of honor and chivalry the Third Reich so readily discarded over the cruelty of modern despotism.

>don't have to worry about invading armies raping your family to death before your eyes

An American born a hundred years ago didn't have to worry about that either.

I like the way you think user

MoH has such a great soundtrack

Indeed it was.

I liked genuinely tragic undertones of the Market Garden segments. It made the tragedy of its failure hit that much harder. Something Call of Duty didn't really grasp until Hans Zimmer started writing their soundtracks.

The great depression is overrated.
My grandpa lived through the era, and his life barely changed. Sure they had a little less money, but it wasn't that noticeable.

*Meant to say Indeed it did.

hey man don't fuck cars, i don't care how great your relationship is with them.

That's... Extremely creepy, yet beautifully written at the same time.
