I understand that this was Allied propaganda, but it makes us Germans look like complete boneheads! I abhor this display of near racial propaganda! It's practically saying that the Germans relied on machines to make their victories, and thats only half true! The Germans were some of the best tactical minds during that War, in fact the average German infantryman was throughly schooled in small unit tactics! Also take into account that while Americans were using M-1 Garand semi-automatic rifles (the latest in technology at the time) the German troops were using "out-dated" bolt-action K-98 rifles, imagine if you will if Germany had access to semi-automatic rifles at the beginning of the War, what would have happened then? Most of the time the reason why we lost is because we were either out-numbered in men AND material, for example: Stalingrad, Kursk, D-Day, and El Almein. If we Germans hadn't allowed the TRUE bonehead of Adolph Hitler to take command of the German Armies, the Allies would probably be singing a different tune right now! Or perhaps speaking a different language! This article is absolutely ridiculous! I understand that this was Allied propaganda, but it makes us Germans look like complete boneheads!
