John Kettler Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Military History Visualized is the brainchild of a military historian in Germany. In this video, he looks at a small sampling of German military jokes, but places them in the context of the potentially lethal consequences of telling them. Some I found hilarious, but the real meat lies, not in his video, but the blizzard of period military jokes--from a bunch of countries--that came back in response. Highly recommend you read them, too, both for their hilarity and the insights they provide. Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimpleSimon Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 "When its the RAF we duck, when it's the Americans everyone ducks. When it's the Luftwaffe, nobody ducks" and "The war will be over when Goering fits in Goebbel's trousers" were a pair of my all time favorites. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhonalbert Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 So its surely not a good subject for comedy? As ever, though, forces humor doesn't always play by the rules - and when it comes to deciding our favorite WWII jokes of all time, there was a veritable goldmine of material to draw from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
