Lost Battlefields w Tino Struckmann | THE LOST WEST WALL WHAT WAS IT REALLY @tinostruckmann | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 12 hours ago
The Siegfried Line or West Wall was the massive German bunker and fortress construction of defensive facing West. Initially envisaged to mirror the Ostwall, but the designs changed and events overtook the completion of what was planned.
But the depiction of the West Wall today is mostly wrong, it was claimed poorly defended and inconsequential but this is far from the case.
It was a vast 6 month long battlefield towards the end of the war, and over the next 4 episodes I am going to try and clarify exactly what the West Wall actually was, what the constructions were, the bunkers and huge forts.
Joined by local historians we are going to cover the large and small bunkers and fighting positions, and I will trek through the battlefields in the forests and hills to give you an idea what allied soldiers were actually up against.
I hope you will take the time to follow my channel and visit the website where documents and research is posted, and should you feel like helping out please join my patreon where we have private chats and you wont have commercials. It all helps me make more. https://www.patreon.com/tinostruckmann?fan_landing=true and the company website lostbattlefields.com
