In December 1941 Japanese Admiral Yamamoto predicted that if Japan went to war with the US, that they would only last six months. His prediction was incredibly accurate, with the Battle of Midway turning the tide in the Pacific. So what did he know that Japan did not…the power of US industry.

Back to back WW2 chompions
Henry Ford refused to help rearm America. But made arms for Germany. He should have been charged with treason. He only changed his mind after Japan's attack on peril harbor. That's the only reason he wasn't.
I read somewhere that the Japanese Navy had so much disdain for merchant service (vs combat service) that no Naval officer worth his salt wanted anything to do with it. So it was largely ignored by the Navy high command – with disastrous results.
I wonder how the Commenwealth troops would feel about the claim that Britain won the battle of El Alamein without any allies?
Imagine being alive when conveyers were genius
USSR: Am I a joke to you?
FINALLY Aussies get a mention in ww2, no one talks about our 'perl harbour
When I hear these numbers I think about that Graph: The more you fvk around, The more you find out!
General Patton Thank You!
💀 🇺🇲 💀
We couldn't do it now
Thank you to all the veterans who fought for our freedoms, we live our comfortable lives because of the sacrifices you made and we are grateful. RIP to all the allied soldiers.
Respect to our neighbors to the South, there's a lot of haters around the world who don't understand that if it wasn't for the US the world would look a lot different today, you have come to the rescue many times, God bless America!
This video was good, however did not have enough on production. I was expecting more about industry
and today we would be screwed.
My family contributed one young Marine…my favorite cousin…and one talented tool worker, my dad…to the war effort. For the rest of his life, Dad could fix, improvise…or he knew a guy who had exactly the needed knowledge to solve any fixit issue. I have always seen “tool guys” as super humans…
It really does help with your production when your factories are not getting bombed doesn't it?
Against the Power that now arises there is no victory.
Ah eh ee oh oo A E I O U . Please

Why is this ‘Like’ amount so low? The like to view ratio is pretty terrible.. maybe because of the age group demo?? I’m guessing that older folks don’t care/think to like/dislike what they watch?
It was women who worked in factories during the war.
