ww2 killed the large fleets maneuvering. Its pathetic. Battle of Midway was a disaster for naval aesthetics.

Jutland sucks.

Give me the battle of the Philippine sea, Leyte gulf, coral sea and midway any day over jutland.

Jutland was just the british trying to cross the T like it was the age of sail while the germans used the remarkable tactic of shifting into reverse.

Battle ships are fucking gay and useless, aircraft carriers actually got involved in winning battles in ww2. battleships basically spent 90% of their time in port.

This is such a weird take. Like, they objectively weren't the good guys. They started the war, they signed a pact with the communists and their reason was purely selfish one to establish Germanic hegemony in Europe.

The German and Japanese ones because they didn't have any fuel. Battleships work great for shore bombardment.

In what way? Britain and France did declare war on Germany. That's a fact.
The Soviets were with the Allies - that's a fact.
And the British Empire hated the idea of a strong Germany - that's a fact.
>>
>>215465720
The documented truth is that Poland had military pact with British and French and Germans were warned multiple times that both countries declare war if they attack Poland.
They ignored all those warning. Then after they invaded Poland Brits and French waited 3 days to declare war demanding the Germans to stop all aggressive actions against Poland and withdrawal from Polish territory. This was also ignored.

That is true, but it also underlines the fact that France and Britain did declare war on Germany and not vice versa. They could have chosen not to. But they did! Also funny that they didn't declare war on the Soviets who invaded Poland too.

>The Soviets were with the Allies
After they got invaded by Germany. Before that they were pretty close allies and even talked about the Soviet Union joining the Axis.
>And the British Empire hated the idea of a strong Germany
Which was just a traditional British policy going back at least to Napoleonic wars.
>>
>>215465850
That's because even Poland didn't declare war on the Soviets. They also weren't suicidal.

No, it was because France and Britain wanted to crush Germany. Rightly so from their perspective because Germany was getting too big. But not declaring war on the Soviets was just strategic.

we never will which is a shame since Erich is the modern man who most closely resembles a hero of old like Hector or Achilles. His post war story would be good too from his decades in a gulag, the loss of his son, and the redemption in eventually getting his freedom and teaching nato pilots how to to fly. he fits the tragic hero perfectly.

The army and Waffen SS mostly wore greenish grey uniforms with some variety coming from captured materials and lower quality war time wool, and new khaki colored "feldgrau 44" wool appearing towards the end of the war. Tank crews wore black uniforms with short "wrapper" jackets.
Air force wore bluish grey for the most part and the navy wore dark blue.
Police wore sort of minty bluish greenish grey.
The infamous black SS uniform with the armband was worn by all SS members as a dress uniform in peace time, but was only rarely seen during the war only being worn by the foot regiment weekend warriors and desk jockeys of the Allgemeine SS, and many of the uniforms were stripped of insignia and re-issued to the foreign collaborator counterparts of the Allgemeine SS in the occupied West and the Schutzsmannschaft collaborator police forces in the East.
Then there were like gazillion uniformed auxiliary, paramilitary and civil and state services that wore all shades of grey, green, blue, brown, and black uniforms. Even Hitler found it amusing when he learned about there being a paramilitary postal protection service under the Post ministry, saying something along the lines "Everyone got to have their own army and their own uniforms".
