My great grandfather fought in the Battle of the Bulge in the 106th. All his descendants exist today because he managed to play dead and hide under a body to avoid the same fate as others.


Love the video! K&G legends

I'm constantly seeing scenes of Band of Brothers in my mind as I watch this. Very well done!

I must say I really enjoy these videos on WW2. My great grandfather was at Bastogne, but unfortunately, he never talked about it. The only thing I know about his time there is that he managed to get frost bite on his hands that they had to use skin off his thigh to fix and managed to earn a silver star. Sadly, everything else I have had to learn from books and band of brothers. So seeing these battles visualized in this way is awesome and keep up the great work.

The axis armies were not expelled from Greece, they evacuated, after the soviets occupied Romania. The British came after that.

I remember a time when this channel use to have 20k subscribers now I look at it now on how much it grow. Good Job you come a long way kings and generals

[PartTimeJedi]

My grandfather was part of Pattons infantry who rushed up from the south to help break through to Bastone. His stories are incredible!

Congratulations to Kings and Generals for reaching a 1 Million + subs. Watching you guys go from having a 100k subscribers to 1 million was amazing to see. Keep up the great work.

3:47 Oh no, the Germans wont try to attack threw the Ardennes. The terrain is far to difficult for a major assault so we can get away with only a light manning of the line.
I mean, what could possibly happen?



French high command, in 1940...

You guys once again surprise me. So far you covered many battles I was interested in since like, 2017 (yeah, couple years back) and you're always after new material. I'm still subscribed to the channel and it is one of the few i still follow regularly.

[Maringer]

It was December 16, not December 26, that the Germans attacked.  (4:32) Honest mistake.

Top shelf stuff lads. As a life long history nerd I am truly thankful for this channel and all the work that goes into it. Cheers.

The quality of content on this channel continues to amaze me, truly in a class of it's own.

At first I was hesitant for the channel to go into WW2, maybe burnout after "The Great War" yet this video really has me excited for future battles, it's great having real footage and a nice change from using video games. I also LOVE how you add the nicknames of some of the more famous units as each one has its own story. Long time subscriber keep up the amazing job! #bestYTchannel
