Podcasts about Wehrmacht

Nous sommes le 15 juillet 1946, à Oberursel, en Allemagne, au N-O de Francfort. C'est ce jour-là que naît officiellement l'Organisation Gehlen (Org). Du nom de Reinhard Gehlen, ancien chef du service de renseignement militaire allemand sur le front de l'Est, durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. A la fin du conflit, les dirigeants américains, en manque d'informations fiables sur l'URSS, se sont montrés très intéressés par l'expertise de ce militaire de carrière qui a gravi les échelons de la Wehrmacht. A l'été 1945, lui et ses hommes sont secrètement transférés aux États-Unis. L'Org va donc se concentrer sur le renseignement antisoviétique et sera financée par les Américains, notamment par la CIA. Elle servira aussi à « recycler » d'anciens membres de la SS et de la Gestapo. A partir de 1956, l'organisation évolue pour devenir le Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND), le service fédéral de renseignement extérieur de l'Allemagne de l'Ouest. Qui était Reinhard Gehlen dont l'enfance fut marquée par la défaite de l'Allemagne en 1918. Homme de l'ombre, il va traverser le XXe siècle avec un sentiment de revanche. Après la chute de IIIe Reich, il parvient à cacher son passé et devient un espion hors norme et un anticommuniste enragé. Revenons sur le parcours de Reinhard Gehlen et, à travers lui, sur un système controversé des services de renseignement américains et européens. Avec nous : Clément Tibère, pseudonyme d'un haut cadre de la communauté française du renseignement. « Reinhard Gehlen – L'espion du siècle ? » Editions Perrin. Sujets traités : Reinhard Gehlen, espion, nazi, Seconde Guerre mondiale, Wehrmacht, Gestapo.

¿Qué pasaría si los occidentales se enfrentan a Hitler en sus primeros años o durante la Guerra Civil española? ¿Y si la Luftwaffe se impone en la batalla de Inglaterra o la Wehrmacht en Stalingrado? ¿O si Hitler muere en el atentado de 1944? ¿Y si los alemanes triunfan en Normandía o las Ardenas? De todo esto vamos a hablar con David Rico del podcast Historia Ficción, acompañado de Félix Lancho y Antonio Gómez, aprovechando la edición de su libro "Elige tu propia historia, La Segunda Guerra Mundial" que puedes adquirir en https://historiaficcion.com/libro o en Amazon en https://www.amazon.es/Elige-propia-historia-Segunda-Mundial/dp/8411997138 Casus Belli Podcast pertenece a 🏭 Factoría Casus Belli.

This book explores the extraordinary story of Jewish POWs in German captivity during the Second World War - extraordinary because of the contrast between Germany's genocidal policy towards Jews on one hand, and its relatively non-discriminatory treatment of Jewish POWs from western countries on the other. The radicalisation of Germany's anti-Semitic policies entered its last phase in June 1941 with the invasion of the Soviet Union; during the following four years, nearly six million Jews were murdered. In parallel, Germany's POW policies had gone through a radicalisation process of their own, resulting in the murder of millions of Soviet POWs, of Allied commando soldiers, and of POW escapees, with Adolf Hitler eventually transferring in July 1944 the responsibility for POWs from the Wehrmacht to Heinrich Himmler, in his role as head of the Replacement Army. And yet, despite all this, Jewish POWs from western countries were usually not discriminated against and were treated, in most cases, according to the 1929 Geneva Convention. Jewish Soldiers in Nazi Captivity combines memoirs, letters, and oral histories with Red Cross camp visit reports and other archival material to challenge the accepted view of the Holocaust as an indiscriminate murder of all Jews in Europe and will help to reshape our understanding of the Holocaust and of Nazi Germany.

Professor Omer Bartov recently wrote an op ed in The New York Times titled “I'm a Genocide Scholar. I Know It When I See It.” The United States Holocaust Memorial Mueseum has cited him as one of the world's leading specialist on genocide. Professor Bartov shares his insight.Omer Bartov Bio: Born in Israel and educated at Tel Aviv University and St. Antony's College, Oxford, Omer Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945, and Hitler's Army. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst, Mirrors of Destruction, and Germany's War and the Holocaust. Bartov's interest in representation also led to his study, The "Jew" in Cinema, which examines the recycling of antisemitic stereotypes in film. His more recent work has focused on interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. Recent publications include Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine (2007), Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (2018), winner of the National Jewish Book Award, and Tales from the Borderlands: Making and Unmaking the Galician Past (2022). His many edited volumes include Shatterzone of Empires: Coexistence and Violence in the German, Habsburg, Russian, and Ottoman Borderlands (2013), Voices on War and Genocide: Three Accounts of the World Wars in a Galician Town (2020), and Israel-Palestine: Lands and Peoples (2021). Bartov's novel, The Butterfly and the Axe, will be published in 2023.

En plena Segunda Guerra Mundial, tras los primeros reveses en el frente soviético, la Alemania nazi —dejando temporalmente de lado su racismo— intentó instrumentalizar el Islam con fines propagandísticos. Dirigentes como Himmler vieron en los musulmanes del Norte de África, Balcanes y Cáucaso aliados útiles contra sus enemigos comunes: el Imperio Británico, la URSS y los judíos. Julio 'Caronte', en este episodio explora cómo el Tercer Reich reclutó a estas comunidades, no por respeto, sino por puro pragmatismo bélico, revelando una de las contradicciones más cínicas del régimen nazi. 📚 LIBRO REFERENCIADO Los musulmanes en la guerra de la Alemania nazi https://www.alianzaeditorial.es/libro/alianza-ensayo/los-musulmanes-en-la-guerra-de-la-alemania-nazi-david-motadel-9788413621913/ ⭐️ ¿Qué es la Edición Especial de Verano?

Alex J. Kay (senior lecture of History at Potsdam University in Berlin) and David Stahel (senior lecturer in History at the University of New South Wales in Canberra) have edited a groundbreaking series of articles on German mass killing and violence during World War II. Four years in the making, this collection of articles spans the breadth of research on these topics and includes some non-English speaking scholars for the first time in a work of this magnitude. Mass Violence in Nazi-Occupied Europe (Indiana UP, 2018) argues for a more comprehensive understanding of what constitutes Nazi violence and who was affected by this violence. The works gathered consider sexual violence, food depravation, and forced labor as aspects of Nazi aggression. Contributors focus in particular on the Holocaust, the persecution of the Sinti and Roma, the eradication of "useless eaters" (psychiatric patients and Soviet prisoners of war), and the crimes of the Wehrmacht. The collection concludes with a consideration of memorialization and a comparison of Soviet and Nazi mass crimes. While it has been over 70 years since the fall of the Nazi regime, the full extent of the ways violence was used against prisoners of war and civilians is only now coming to be fully understood. Mass Violence in Nazi-Occupied Europe provides new insight into the scale of the violence suffered and brings fresh urgency to the need for a deeper understanding of this horrific moment in history.

În Letonia, justiția a decis că autoritatea de reglementare în domeniul mass media a anulat ilegal licența unui post TV rusesc care difuzează din exil. Motivul a fost amenințarea la adresa națională.  Justiția letonă a decis că decizia Consiliului Național pentru Mass-Media Electronică de a revoca licența postului de televiziune rusesc independent „Doždj” sau „Rain TV”, care operează în exil este ilegală, relatează lsm.lv. Acest lucru ar putea însemna că televiziunea ar putea transmite din nou în țările baltice, a scris pe Telegram redactorul-șef al Rain TV, Tikhon Dyadko. Autoritatea de reglementare a anunțat deja că va face apel împotriva deciziei. La sfârșitul anului 2022, NEPLP a decis să revoce licența de emisie a postului „Doždj” din cauza amenințărilor la adresa securității naționale și a ordinii publice. Această decizie a fost luată după examinarea unei serii de încălcări precum: nedifuzarea programelor în limba oficială, reprezentarea Crimeei pe hartă ca parte a teritoriului rus. Expoziție despre recrutarea forțată a polonezilor în Wermacht Siteul postului de radio tokfm.pl scrie despre expoziția „Băieții noștri. Locuitori din Pomerania, Gdansk în Armata celui de-al Treilea Reich” care a fost inaugurată pe 12 iulie la  Muzeul din Gdansk. Potrivit organizatorilor, expoziția abordează nu doar cauzele, cursul și consecințele recrutării în masă de către cel de-al Treilea Reich în regiune, ci și ștergerea fenomenului din memorie după 1945. Expoziția a stârnit indignare în rândul politicienilor din partidul președintelui Andrej Duda, Lege și Justiție, de extremă dreapta. Președintele vorbește despre „o provocare morală,” iar  ministrul apărării naționale a declarat că expoziția nu a servit politicii poloneze de comemorare. „Băieții noștri, soldații și civilii, polonezi, au apărat patria împotriva Germaniei naziste până la ultima picătură de sânge. Ei sunt eroii și ei sunt cei care merită să fie incluși în expoziții,” a declarat oficialul. Muzeul s-a opus „evaluărilor nedrepte și superficiale” ale unor persoane care „nu sunt familiarizate cu expoziția în sine sau cu contextul său istoric și educațional”. „Recrutarea forțată a polonezilor în Wehrmacht este o crimă germană care nu poate fi ignorată,” este poziția muzeului. „Arătăm suferința oamenilor care au fost privați de posibilitatea de a alege. Nu suntem de acord să-i portretizăm ca trădători sau colaboratori”, a declarat purtătorul de cuvânt al muzeului. Firmă americană angajată pentru a sparge o grevă în Polonia krytykapolityczna.pl relatează despre greva izbucnită acum o lună la fabrica de coșuri de fum din Gniezno, oraș din centrul țării considerat prima capitală a Poloniei. Aceasta este prima demonstrație de acest fel din oraș după tranziția postcomunistă, dar problema depășește contextul local și arată o criză profundă a statului și a legislației poloneze, comentează sursa citată. Muncitorii au următoarele revendicări: o creștere salarială de 800 de zloți, aproximativ 190 de Euro, mărirea pauzei de la 15 la 30 de minute și reguli echitabile privind bonusurile. Astăzi, contrar a ceea ce susține partea poloneză a conducerii companiei cu capital german, angajații sunt pregătiți să negocieze, dar conducerea a angajat firma americană de avocatură Littler, specializată în combaterea sindicatelor, și îi plătește generos pentru a rezolva greva. Pantera neagră văzută din nou pe podișul Șumen Din vesti.bg aflăm că pantera neagră s-a întors pe podișul Șumen, iar autoritățile au recomandat populației să evite zona. Informația vine de la  directorul adjunct al Direcției Regionale a Ministerului Afacerilor Interne. Animalul a fost observat pe timp de nîntr-o zonă bine luminată a treptelor de la poalele monumentului „Creatorii Statului Bulgar.” Prezența animalului a fost semnalată de două persoane. Reprezentanții autorităților fac apel la toți cetățenii să fie extrem de atenți și să evite vizitarea teritoriului Parcului Natural Platoul Șumen în timpul nopții. Ministerele relevante vor fi din nou informate despre situație, a adăugat Administrația Regională Șumen.   Au participat la Revista Presei Europa Plus: Marcin  BROZEK, Polonia Filip WALICKI,  Polonia Rostislava RUSEVA, Bulgaria Aļina KAMINSKA, Letonia

In this thought-provoking episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill welcomes back historian Roger Moorhouse, author of "First to Fight" and "The Forgers." Together, they delve into the complexities of the 20 July bomb plot against Adolf Hitler, examining the motivations and legacies of those involved, particularly focusing on the controversial figure of Claus von Stauffenberg.Unpacking the 20 July Plot:Stauffenberg's Bravery: Acknowledging the physical and moral courage of Stauffenberg while questioning the narrative that elevates him to national hero status.The Flawed Hero: Exploring Stauffenberg's past as a supporter of the Nazi regime and the implications of his late conversion to resistance.Henning von Tresckow: Introducing a lesser-known but more morally consistent figure in the German resistance, who attempted multiple assassination plots against Hitler.The Aftermath of the Plot:Repression and Consequences: Discussing the brutal crackdown on resistance following the failed assassination attempt, leading to thousands of executions and the decimation of the German opposition.Impact on Military Strategy: Analyzing how the regime's distrust of the Wehrmacht after the plot resulted in the appointment of incompetent leaders, further weakening Germany's military efforts.Roger and Paul engage in a rich discussion that encourages listeners to reconsider their perceptions of historical figures and the narratives that surround them. By examining the complexities of Stauffenberg's character and the wider implications of the 20 July plot, this episode invites a deeper understanding of the moral ambiguities of wartime resistance.Guest Information: Follow Roger on Twitter: @roger_moorhouse.Buy the books:Killing Hitler: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9781844133222The Devil's Alliance: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9780099571896The Forgers: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9781847926760Also hear Roger through Season 1 of Moments in Time: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAZ--PlOi5b_MKoSSzhoQxQConnect with History Rage:- Twitter: @HistoryRage- Instagram: @historyrage- Facebook: History Rage- Bluesky: @historyrageSupport History Rage on Patreon for early episode access, the chance to submit questions to guests, prize draws, and the exclusive History Rage mug at www.patreon.com/historyrage.Stay Angry, Stay Informed - History Rage Hosted on Acast.

The collection concludes with a consideration of memorialization and a comparison of Soviet and Nazi mass crimes. While it has been over 70 years since the fall of the Nazi regime, the full extent of the ways violence was used against prisoners of war and civilians is only now coming to be fully understood. Mass Violence in Nazi-Occupied Europe provides new insight into the scale of the violence suffered and brings fresh urgency to the need for a deeper understanding of this horrific moment in history.

Leon Goldenson le entrevistó en su celda, y defendió a capa y espada su honestidad partiendo de la obediencia ciega como militar y el desconocimiento del los campos de exterminio.

Operation Barbarossa, launched by Nazi Germany on June 22, 1941, aimed to swiftly conquer the Soviet Union, targeting key cities like Moscow, Leningrad, and Kyiv. Hitler reportedly said a meeting with his generals before the campaign began "We have only to kick in the door and the whole rotten structure will come crashing down," With German forces advancing up to 200 miles per week in the first two months, it looked like Germany would accomplish this goal, nearly reaching Moscow by August. The operation’s rapid pace saw the Wehrmacht encircle and capture millions of Soviet troops, bringing Germany close to victory, though fierce resistance and logistical challenges stalled their progress short of total conquest. The campaign devastated civilian populations, with millions killed through bombings, mass executions, and starvation policies, particularly in occupied regions like Ukraine and Belarus. The Nazis’ brutal tactics, including the Einsatzgruppen death squads, systematically murdered Jews, Romani people, and others, contributing to an estimated 10-14 million civilian deaths across the Soviet Union by the war’s end. To look at these months of fighting in Eastern Eruope, some of the most devastating times in that region’s history, is today’s guest, Richard Hargreaves, author of Opening the Gates of Hell. The combination of unprecedented, rapid military victories coupled with state-sponsored and spontaneous atrocities makes the opening fortnight of the invasion of the Soviet Union unique in the annals of modern warfare.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At the start of World War II, France was still a world power. The U.S. and many other nations were relying on the French, along with their ally Britian, to stop Hitler. But in just 6 weeks in May and June 1940, the Germans conquered France, Belgium, and The Netherlands; and drove the British off of continental Europe. The incredibly swift German victory completely changed the balance of power in the world; and woke up the isolationist United States.

Wer in Jersey mit offenen Augen durch die Landschaft geht, sieht überall Landmarken aus Beton. Auf der größten der Kanalinseln im Ärmelkanal wurden Bunker, Peilstände und Befestigungsanlagen vor 80 Jahren von den Deutschen hier zurückgelassen, als die Besatzung durch die Wehrmacht am 9. Mai 1945 nach fast fünf Jahren endete. Heute kann man einige dieser Bauten als Ferienunterkünfte mieten - mit einem atemberaubenden Blick über die Küste und das türkisfarbene Meer. „German Industrial Design“ nennt der Vermieter den Stil, den die gemeinnützige Organisation Jersey Heritage inzwischen mit allem möglichen Komfort für die Gäste verbunden hat. Trotz des hohen Freizeitwerts ist man auch im Sommer oft allein am Strand und trifft auf dem Coastal Path beim Wandern selten auf andere Spaziergänger. Immer noch sind die Kanalinseln eine Art Geheimtipp unter Reisenden. Statt durch ein ausgeklügeltes Tourismuskonzept gelenkt zu werden, darf man hier am Leben des kleinen autonomen Inselstaats, dem Bailiwick of Jersey, teilhaben: das Hauptstadtleben in St. Helier schnuppern, surfen, kayaken und mit dem geliehenen Oldtimer durch die schmalen Gassen fahren. Oder man hält in einer der 30 Meeresbuchten die Füße in die Brandung und schlürft ein paar frische Austern, die vor der Küste sorgsam gezogen werden. Jana Magdanz kennt nach vielen Reisen die Insel wie ihre Westentasche und teilt in Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti ihre liebsten Ausflugsziele. Vor allem aber schwärmt sie von der Freundlichkeit der Einheimischen, die trotz ihrer tragisch geteilten Geschichte mit Deutschland, nichts lieber tun, als mit deutschen Urlaubern darüber ins Gespräch zu kommen.

Giorgio Van StratenSeminare Idee FestivalPrato, dal 6 all'8 giugno 2025Uno spazio dove si incrociano pensieri diversi, trasversali a tutte le discipline, per far nascere una comunità di persone unite dal rito della condivisione, della cultura e delle esperienze, facendo leva sulle più importanti fonti della conoscenza: curiosità, meraviglia e partecipazione.Tre giornate di letture, conferenze, dialoghi e incontri. Grandi nomi della cultura, della scienza e dello spettacolo si ritroveranno a Prato dal 6 all'8 giugno. Il tema della prima edizione è: coraggio.sabato 7 Giugno 2025, ore 10:15Giorgio Van Straten e Walter VeltroniCapitane coraggioseLa Resistenza è stato un momento cruciale in cui gli italiani hanno dovuto decidere da che parte stare. È un periodo su cui vale la pena riflettere, soprattutto a ottant'anni dalla Liberazione. Giorgio van Straten e Walter Veltroni hanno scritto due libri dedicati a due donne che, in quegli anni, hanno preso decisioni coraggiose. Queste donne, seguendo percorsi personali, hanno unito sentimenti e consapevolezza politica, facendo coincidere pubblico e privato, alimentando l'uno con l'altro e accettando i rischi e le conseguenze. Il libro di Giorgio van Straten, “La ribelle. Vita straordinaria di Nada Parri” (Laterza), racconta la storia di Nada Parri, una giovane donna toscana che lascia tutto per unirsi ai partigiani insieme a un disertore tedesco, Hermann Wilkens, di cui si innamora. I sentimenti per Hermann la conducono verso una consapevolezza politica, fino a diventare comunista e, nel dopoguerra, il primo sindaco donna dell'empolese-valdelsa. Walter Veltroni, invece, narra le vicende di Iris Versari nel libro “Iris, la libertà” (Rizzoli). Anche Iris è una partigiana, insieme al compagno di lotta e di vita Silvio Corbari. Morì a poco più di vent'anni nell'agosto del 1944 ed è stata insignita della medaglia d'oro al valor militare alla memoria. Due giovani donne, come molti combattenti della lotta di liberazione, coraggiose e pronte a pagare il prezzo delle loro scelte.Giorgio van Straten (Firenze, 1955) è uno scrittore e dirigente di istituzioni culturali. Dal febbraio 2009 al luglio 2012 è stato membro del Consiglio di Amministrazione della RAI. Dal 2015 al 2019 è stato direttore dell'Istituto Italiano di Cultura di New York. Da gennaio a marzo 2020 è stato writer in residence presso il dipartimento di italiano della New York University dove ha tenuto un corso sul rapporto fra storia e letteratura. Dal 2020 è stato nominato Presidente della Fondazione Alinari per la Fotografia. Tra le sue ultime opere: Una disperata vitalità (HarperCollins Italia, 2022), Invasione di campo. Quando la letteratura racconta la storia (Laterza, 2023) e La ribelle. Vita straordinaria di Nada Parri (Laterza, 2025).Giorgio Van Straten"La ribelle"Vita straordinaria di Nadia Parri.Editori Laterzawww.laterza.itUna grande storia d'amore, vera e tragica come le grandi storie d'amore. La guerra, la Resistenza, la ricostruzione: la storia che travolge le nostre esistenze e le indirizza come un destino.La vita di Nada, donna ribelle e coraggiosa, ci porta a riflettere sulla speranza che ogni generazione, contro ogni apparente ragionevolezza, continua a riporre nel futuro.Nada ha vent'anni, una bambina di due ed è sola. Il marito è partito volontario per la guerra in Africa. La sua famiglia è lontana e nella nuova città dove abita non conosce quasi nessuno. Hermann di anni ne ha quasi quaranta, una famiglia in Germania, è sottufficiale della Wehrmacht e odia Hitler. Si incontrano per caso in un pomeriggio d'inverno a Marina di Carrara e si innamorano. Insieme decidono di fuggire, lei da una famiglia sbagliata, lui da un esercito che da alleato è diventato occupante e invasore. Scappano sui monti e si uniscono ai partigiani. Rischieranno la vita, parteciperanno alla liberazione di Parma, convinti che il futuro sia dalla loro parte. Non sarà così.Giorgio van Straten ci porta sapientemente sulle tracce di Nada e di Hermann, inseguendo persone, documenti, oggetti, fotografie: riaffiora così una storia incredibile e ricca di colpi di scena. Una ricerca che ci fa ‘inciampare' in domande e interrogativi che riguardano tutti: l'amore è una forza capace di travolgerci, anche di farci rischiare la vita stessa? I grandi sogni della giovinezza indirizzano tutta la nostra esistenza o sono destinati a diventare fonte inesauribile di nostalgia e frustrazione? Le cicatrici di esperienze così travolgenti possono essere nascoste e dimenticate?IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Une saga palpitante sur les derniers mois de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.Juillet 1944. Tandis qu'à l'Est, l'Armée rouge casse définitivement les reins de la Wehrmacht (opération " Bagration") et qu'à l'Ouest, Américains et Britanniques qui piétinaient depuis le Débarquement, percent enfin les défenses allemandes (opération " Cobra"), les chefs alliés sont optimistes : la guerre en Europe sera finie à Noël. Tous se trompent. Elle durera dix mois encore. Les plus coûteux en vies humaines de tout le conflit. Comment l'Allemagne, dont les forces vives – hommes, matériels, infrastructures industrielles, ressources énergétiques – ont été saignées à blanc, a-t-elle pu tenir aussi longtemps ? Pourquoi Hitler, au contraire de Mussolini ou du dictateur roumain Antonescu, n'a-t-il pas été renversé ? Comment l'Union soviétique, dont plus de 20 millions de citoyens ont été exterminés en trois ans, est-elle parvenue, en quelques mois, à recouvrer le terrain perdu et à planter le drapeau rouge au sommet du Reichstag ? Pourquoi les États-Unis passent-ils pour le pays ayant le plus contribué à la victoire sur l'Allemagne alors que sur les 48 millions de morts provoqués par la guerre en Europe, 73 % sont des Russes (16 millions de civils et 9 millions de combattants soit 15 % de la population de l'URSS) et 0,3% seulement des Américains (140 000 morts) ? Même illusion d'optique s'agissant des accords de Yalta (février 1945) et du prétendu " partage du monde " qui en a résulté. Sait-on que ce n'est pas Roosevelt – trop rapidement taxé de complaisance avec Staline – qui a entériné les visées territoriales soviétiques sur l'Europe centrale, mais le très anticommuniste Churchill, cinq mois plus tôt à Moscou, pour préserver la sphère d'influence britannique sur la Grèce et la Méditerranée orientale ? Après tant d'ouvrages écrits sur la Seconde Guerre mondiale, raconter l'histoire de son achèvement européen était nécessaire pour tordre le cou à beaucoup d'idées reçues. C'est l'objet de ce livre dont l'originalité repose sur les angles morts qu'il a choisi d'éclairer, et la force au rare talent d'écriture de son auteur.L'auteur Eric Branca est notre invité en studioDistribué par Audiomeans.

Throughout the war on the Eastern Front, there were two consistent trends. The Red Army battled to learn how to fight and win, while involved in a struggle for its very survival. Butby 1944 it had a leadership that was able to wield it with lethal effect and with far more effective equipment than before. By contrast, the Wehrmacht had commenced a slow process of decline after the invasion of the Soviet Union.Hitler became increasingly unwilling to delegate decision-making to commanders in the field, which had been crucial to earlier success. The long years of fighting had also taken a heavy toll. Thousands of irreplaceable junior officers and NCOs were dead, wounded or prisoners.Renowned Eastern Front expert Prit Buttar expertly brings these contrasting fortunes to life, trends which culminated in the huge battles of Bagration. As this masterful study conclusively shows, in 1944 the Red Army finally puttogether a campaign that utterly destroyed the German Army Group Centre. The Wehrmacht suffered the loss of over 300,000 men killed, wounded or taken prisoner and the Red Army rolled forward across Belarus to the outskirts ofWarsaw. The end of the war was still many months away, and the Germans managed to reconstruct their line on the Eastern Front, but final victory for the Soviet Union was now only a matter of time as a direct consequence of Bagration. About the Author:Prit Buttar studied medicine at Oxford and Londonbefore joining the British Army as a doctor. After leaving the army, he worked as a general practitioner. An established expert on the Eastern Front in 20th-century military history, his most recent titles include the critically acclaimed new history of the siege of Leningrad: To Besiege A City:Leningrad 1941–42 and Hero City: Leningrad 1943–44. He lives in Kirkcudbright, Scotland.

W czerwcu 1940 roku, po zaledwie 6 tygodniach walk, Wehrmacht całkowicie rozbił francuską armię, zajął całą północną Francję i zmusił brytyjskie wojska do panicznej ewakuacji. Tak szybkie pokonanie wojsk alianckich doprowadziło do powstania wielu mitów na temat Kampanii francuskiej i rzekomego tchórzostwa Francuzów. Czy to powszechne przeświadczenie jest zgodne z prawdą? Jeśli nie, to co przyczyniło się do spektakularnej klęski wojsk francuskich i brytyjskich w 1940 roku? O tym opowiadamy w najnowszym odcinku Misji specjalnej RMF FM.

Hitlers Selbstmord und die Kapitulation der Wehrmacht am 8.Mai 1945 bedeuteten nicht das Ende des Deutschen Reiches. In der Marineschule Mürwik bei Flensburg agierte noch fast drei Wochen eine Reichsregierung unter Großadmiral Dönitz, den Hitler zu seinem Nachfolger ernannt hatte: Ein bizarrer Spuk mit Kabinettssitzungen, Minister-Denkschriften - und einem Staatsbegräbnis. Auch als die britische Armee das Treiben mit Festnahmen beendete, blieb Dönitz überzeugt, rechtmäßig im Amt zu sein. Von Rainer Volk

Am 8. Mai 1945 schweigen endlich die Waffen. Der vom nationalsozialistischem Deutschen Reich 1939 entfachte Zweite Weltkrieg ist zu Ende. Mit der bedingungslosen Kapitulation der Wehrmacht endet das millionenfache Blutvergießen-zumindest in Europa. Doch auch ohne Führer, Krieg, Bomben und Propaganda beginnt für die Zivilbevölkerung in Deutschland eine harte Zeit.

Der 8. Mai 1945 beendet offiziell die Nazi-Herrschaft, die Europa und viele weitere Teile der Welt über Jahre hinweg in Schrecken versetzt hat. Bis kurz vor der bedingungslosen Kapitulation der Wehrmacht verüben Nationalsozialisten – aber auch gewöhnliche Bürger – teils unfassbare Verbrechen an Gefangenen und der Zivilbevölkerung. Hans Rauscher, Kolumnist beim STANDARD und Experte für österreichische Zeitgeschichte, erklärt die Vorgänge während der letzten Tage des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Tanja Traxler, Leiterin des Ressorts Wissenschaft beim STANDARD, liefert Erzählungen aus dieser Epoche.

Jest 5 maja 1945 roku. Wokół położonego w Austrii zamku Itter gromadzą się oddziały Waffen-SS, które mają zdobyć twierdzę i zlikwidować wszystkie osoby przebywające wewnątrz. Naprzeciw nim stają amerykańscy żołnierze, wspierani przez żołnierzy Wehrmachtu, austriackiego oficera SS i kilkunastu Francuzów, wśród których jest dwóch byłych premierów Francji. Skąd w Zamku Itter znaleźli się francuscy politycy? Jak doszło do tego, że Amerykanie walczyli ramię w ramię z Wehrmachtem przeciwko SS-manom? W najnowszym odcinku Misji specjalnej odsłaniamy kulisy starcia, określanego mianem jednej z najdziwniejszych bitew II wojny światowej.

Music was an integral part of statecraft and identity formation in the Third Reich. Structured thematically and semiotically around the Wagnerian tetralogy of the Ring cycle, Hitler's Twilight of the Gods: Music and the Orchestration of War and Genocide in Europe (U Toronto Press, 2025) provides a sonic read of the Second World War and the Holocaust. Alexandra Birch sheds light on the specific type of music promoted under Nazism, linked to larger Teutonic mythologies and histories espoused in rhetoric and personal styling. The book explores the musical fixation of the command as it was extended to the ordinary troops of the Wehrmacht and SS in instances of musical sadism and destruction during the Holocaust. It reveals how, in constructing what was "German," this process also intentionally fashioned a subaltern other with an assigned set of music and aesthetics. The book draws on analysis of testimony and perpetrator documents to reveal the execution of this binary identity and the inclusion of music even in extreme genocidal conditions. From drinking games in the interwar period, to musical sadism in the Holocaust, to the final delusions of the command in collapse, Hitler's Twilight of the Gods illuminates how music was a component of camaraderie, identity, masculinity, and warfare.

The book explores the musical fixation of the command as it was extended to the ordinary troops of the Wehrmacht and SS in instances of musical sadism and destruction during the Holocaust. It reveals how, in constructing what was "German," this process also intentionally fashioned a subaltern other with an assigned set of music and aesthetics. The book draws on analysis of testimony and perpetrator documents to reveal the execution of this binary identity and the inclusion of music even in extreme genocidal conditions. From drinking games in the interwar period, to musical sadism in the Holocaust, to the final delusions of the command in collapse, Hitler's Twilight of the Gods illuminates how music was a component of camaraderie, identity, masculinity, and warfare.

Claus von Stauffenberg est l'héritier d'une famille allemande aristocratique. En 1943, alors qu'il sert en Afrique du Nord, une opération dangereuse lui coute son bras droit, deux doigts de la main gauche et l'un de ses yeux. Il est convaincu que s'il a eu la vie sauve, c'est pour débarrasser l'Allemagne d'Hitler. Intégré comme chef d'État-major, il participe régulièrement à des réunions militaires en sa présence. Le 20 juillet 1944, il passe à l'action et dépose une mallette chargée d'explosifs au pied du Führer, avant de s'éclipser. Convaincu qu'il vient de tuer Hitler, il rejoint l'aéroport et s'envole pour Berlin afin de lancer l'opération Walkyrie. Seulement, Hitler a survécu. Alors que la nouvelle se répand, l'armée se retourne contre les officiers conjurés. Jugé en urgence, Von Stauffenberg est fusillé avec ses complices. Le 20 juillet 1944, une poignée d'officiers allemands rebelles a bien failli tuer Hitler. Au sein même de la Wehrmacht, les membres de l'opération Walkyrie sentent que le Führer mène le pays à sa perte. Dans un récit inédit, Virginie Girod vous plonge au cœur de l'histoire de ce complot contre le régime nazi. Distribué par Audiomeans.

By April 1945, Soviet forces stood at the gates of Berlin. From the summer of 1944, Hitler's armies had suffered a series of cataclysmic defeats that had left them shattered and desperately trying to hold on in front of the capital of the Third Reich. But how the Soviets' been able to bring the once mighty German Army to the brink of total defeat, and did the Wehrmacht have one last throw of the dice to save the Nazi regime?In this episode, Dan is joined by Professor Evan Maudsley, author of Thunder in the East: The Nazi-Soviet War 1941-1945 and former Professor of International History at the University of Glasgow.

Fritz Häber, The Complete Diary: 16 Months in an American POW Camp by Bernd Häber Amazon.com Worldstrings.com 16monthsaspow.com Examining history through family archives frequently complicates our understanding of the past. This complexity is heightened when descendants encounter diverse forms of testimonial evidence from a bygone era—whether it be a photograph, an object, postcards, official documents, or a diary—and undertake the challenging endeavor of deciphering the meaning of these personal remnants within the broader context of historical events. This diary stands apart from the typical World War II narratives found in documentaries, textbooks, and retellings, often providing only the highlights and a broad overview. For readers seeking a genuinely fresh and intimate perspective on the physical war and psychological war that unfolds beneath the surface, this real-life account offers an insightful and comprehensive experience. This is the story of Fritz Häber, a young German father who grappled with the dual responsibilities to his family and country. His reflections provide personal insights that extend beyond him to encompass broader global perspectives. Forced to serve in a Nazi anti-aircraft unit near Munich during WW2, he later endured 16 months imprisoned in an American POW camp. Fritz Häber begins his diary with this dedication: “I dedicate these pages to my wife and my children of whom I hope are still alive and whom to find well when I return from captivity… May these lines serve my wife in the future as a compensation for the long time during which she knew nothing about my well-being, and for the children to serve as an example of how human destinies can get easily mixed up.” Stories such as his prompt an exploration of our family histories and their untold narratives. They illuminate themes of resilience and survival, morality and choice. Even when these tales harbor discomfort or controversy, they possess the power to enlighten us and offer valuable guidance for our present actions. His steadfast and unyielding belief in his survival gave him the faith that he would be reunited with his family one day. Having endured physical and emotional challenges, his story is a timeless, powerful source of inspiration 75 years later and will resonate with future generations. From the author: n this book, which is both a diary and a memoir, you will meet my grandfather, Fritz Häber. As a child, he was just my grandpa, a jovial, vigorous, warmhearted man, whom I would visit during the occasional holiday vacation. It was only later when contentious, life altering, family events were revealed to me that I realized Fritz had served in Hitler's Wehrmacht during WWII, one of the most tumultuous and violent time periods of world history. I had so many questions. Although his part in this global drama can be considered minor, he extensively documented his experiences and shared his astute reflections on everything from human psychology to political philosophy. Like many history buffs, I have spent countless hours reading about high level diplomacy and watching documentaries that detail the technical and military aspects of war, but it was not until reading Fritz's diary that I could fully imagine both the momentous decisions he made and the drudgery of being a reluctant soldier. Fritz, an antifascist, not only warns “human destinies can get easily mixed up” during war, but also reminds us to pay attention to forces that might interfere with our lives in unexpected ways. I am excited to now share his story with you. About the author Bernd, grandson of Fritz, was born in East Berlin - after the Berlin Wall was erected. He grew up in the German Democratic Republic under a Communist ruling government. Bernd attended the Technische Universität in Chemnitz in Saxony/Germany and graduated with a Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Process Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing.
