  • description: The Blitzkrieg Myth - Part 1: A Leap into the Dark | History Documentary Watch 'The Blitzkrieg Myth - Part 2' here: https://youtu.be/rTooxjXOiSk In this episode: Germany’s invasion of Poland in 1939 plunges Europe into war. From the very beginning, the conflict is marked by extreme brutality. Although the Wehrmacht defeats its neighbour within four weeks, the campaign is far from straightforward. Despite being formally at war with Britain and France, there are initially few major military clashes in the West. That uneasy standstill ends abruptly: on May 10th, 1940. The series: In the first months of the Second World War, Hitler’s armed forces achieve a series of rapid victories. In hindsight, the term Blitzkrieg has become synonymous with the Wehrmacht’s early successes in Poland and France. Yet what began in 1939 and culminated in 1940 was anything but a long-planned, coherent strategy. Hitler’s obsession with conquering Europe forced his generals into unconventional and high risk offensives. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe to Free Documentary - History Channel for free: https://bit.ly/2FjRPgV Facebook: https://bit.ly/2QfRxbG Twitter: https://bit.ly/2QlwRiI ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #History ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary - History is dedicated to bringing high-quality documentaries to you on YouTube for free.
