Dresden Part 2 - Patreons Only
🕑 Added 2026-02-01 19:22:28 +0000 UTCThis is a bit of an experiment where we see if uploading to Patreon works, and whether folks want to watch it here, or wati for the YT expereince. Lets see, feedback greatly appreciated
In this video we’ll discuss the RAF and the USAAF’s raids on Dresden, right at the end of WW2; it was an attack that caused over 25,000 casualties, and shocked the world with it’s violence. We’ll talk about how the raid unfolded, what happened in the air and on the ground, the after math, and the raid’s legacy in history.

I don’t believe it was wrong, if it was wrong that makes other things that happened right . It was WAR and it’s all wrong . I love your videos because you tell what actually happened to all the people involved .

So basically I (now) charge £5. Patreon will charge you that + a handling fee. If you do it through the website that fee is about 10%. If you do it through an Android app it's about 20%. If you do it via the Apple App then it's about £30%. Then on top of that there's fees from the Apple store, and excahnge rates from Apple which are higher. And they pay later. So basically just go to the webiste and do it....

I have to say "enjoy" is probably the wrong word for this video -- fascinated, appalled and, dare I say, educated.

As a yank, I refrain from affecting a British accent. No reason...

As usual Man, you know to paint a picture. And we wonder why survivors killed downed Air Crews.

There are only a very few things I bother using Patreon for. This is one of them. I don't like waiting and I prefer to help fund creators who aren't idiots.
