Episodes
Seeds of War
History's greatest war began decades before the Blitzkrieg with the rise of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party. This is a look at the complex political, historical, and industrial forces that led to a war that truly became the war to end all wars.
The Advance
In lightning thrusts, Hitlers Wermacht, Waffen-SS, and Luftwaffe overran enemy armies. This is a look at the weapons, tactics, and strategy of Hitler's quest for control of Europe.
German Air Power
The Luftwaffe was the aerial warfare branch of Nazi Germany's military, the Wehrmacht, during World War II, responsible for the country's air defense, strategic bombing, and support of ground forces.
Luftwaffe Strike!
The Luftwaffe suffered significant losses and decline in effectiveness as the war progressed. Factors such as the Battle of Britain, strategic mistakes, and the Allied air superiority contributed to the Luftwaffe's weakening. By the war's end in 1945, the Luftwaffe had experienced substantial attrition, reduced operational capacity, and diminishing influence on the overall military situation.
Brown Shirts & The SS
The Brownshirts, or SA (Sturmabteilung), were paramilitary units of the Nazi Party in Germany, known for their role in political violence and intimidation before World War II. The SS (Schutzstaffel), on the other hand, was originally the Nazi Party's elite paramilitary organization, evolving into a powerful force responsible for various functions, during the war.
The Fourth Branch
The so-called "Fourth Branch" of the Nazi War Machine.
Hitler Youth
The Hitler Youth (Hitlerjugend in German) was a paramilitary youth organization in Nazi Germany, indoctrinating young people with Nazi ideology and preparing them for future roles in the military and the Nazi Party.
Panzer Division
Panzers referred to the German tanks used by the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS. These tanks, such as the Panzer IV and Tiger tanks, played a crucial role in the Blitzkrieg tactics employed by the German military, contributing to their early successes in the war.
