It’s insane how dull and boring WW2 is in actuality Vs the cultural perception of itTake D-Day, films, video games, shows, interviews etc make it sound like this insane meat grinder battle where the allies overcame tremendous odds. Giant bunkers loomed over the coast, men were mowed down by the dozens in boats, etcReality is Americans walked onto the beach and fought some conscripted Czech and Ukrainians who gave up first chance they got Stalingrad is always depicted as this insane, dense urban battle The actual Stalingrad was a bunch of shitty Russian peasant houses and a couple factories
Longest day was a good movie
>>18544959i didnt enjoy it that much
>>18544946Stalingrad pre-war was comparable in population to NYC
>>18544991And it was all wooden peasant homes and a couple factories And I guarantee all the combat was as boring as the shit we see in Ukraine now
>>18544946Wars are garbage, but Govt's have to sell them to the stupid cattle.A battlefield probably smells like rotten meat, blood and feces, because when you die, your body shits itself due to the relaxation of the internal muscles.
>Khrushchev recalled in his memoirs witnessing dead German soldiers being gathered up by the Soviet army and cremated. "Napoleon or somebody said there is no sweeter smell than the burning corpses of the enemy army, but speaking from experience I don't agree."[3]
>>18544946>conscripted Czech and Ukrainiansproof?
>>18545994>because when you die, your body shits itself due to the relaxation of the internal musclesi guess it depends on how much you ate. if you didn't eat for a while your guts are going to be pretty empty.
