The Estonians defending their native soil from the Red Army were pretty fucking amazing.

Reminds me of Polish AK that still fought against the Soviets even when WW2 was over.

They knew what it means to be ruled by the tiblas.

>the last Waffen SS division preserving Berlin was french
What a wild, wild ride that war was.

Their anthem's quite hilarious too, and hints at them knowing that they'd be remembered as psychos and they willingly embraced.

It's based on a German SS song too.

The French one would later spread to the foreign legion.

Dang, my country's this cucked.

And yes, I've been treated by my great-uncle, himself veteran of Indochina, that the air was rife with the chants of former french SS troops. Quite smug for France to put them in our foreign legio. corps, and hide that gruesome little fact from the world. Heh.

It's a catchy song, can see why it spread on.
Have you seen the list of translations to it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_song

And to my understanding a lot of SS and Werhmact soldiers would seek to the foreign legion after the war, so they carried the song with them.

I'm french, so I'd rather you stray from that deviousness too mister.

To be honest, I'd be too worst if I were german. A SWAT would've already arrested by now were I a hun.

Leftists man. Everyone has them, ours worst in some fields than others. Thankfully we're not plagued by feminists though.

I'm in the French military and we work with Germans they always complain we're allowed to sing former WWII German songs while it's forbidden to them. They can only sing Lili Marlene which isn't bad if a tad bland.

Ironically though, Manstein's strategy did not encompass that the germans symbolically march through Verdun as they were busying themselves to rush to Calais. Even once jabbing southwards, it was towards Paris that they tread, and never in Verdun for as long as the invasion of France lastsd.

>>1773013

The Danish, Dutch and Belgians had no small roll.

Not trying to come off as a naziboo, but I'm sort of fascinated by how the Waffen-SS evolved from this small group of personal guards to Hitler, to a selective military unit hand picked for petty things, then after being put through the meat grinder by a brutal Wehrmacht enforced baptism of fire, into an Pan-European coalition united by hatred of the Bolshevist. They spent the entire war learning and growing as a fighting force.
