Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
This presentation was slow, really slow. Here are some highlights -
"What's interesting is the early war German armored vehicles. They are at best, average, but generally they are below the average capability of French, British and Russian tanks. With these inferrior tanks the German Army wins its greatest victories. What this tells you is its not really about the tank."
Dr. Wehraboo Dimarco discusses a career highlight singing the Panzer Lied with German Officers at the Panzer School in Germany
"All of the 85-90% of the Infantry units, everything in that unit is horse drawn. All the artillery, all the logistics... and you're doing the same logistic system that Napoleon used in 1812."
Mandatory "YOU HAD HORSES, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!?!? SAY HELLO TO FORD AND GENERAL FUCKING MOTOR!"
This is another good talk. The entire thing is worth watching, really.
