A South African minister is attacking a position as we speak.

You use present tense.

You need counseling. Ask for help.

Your attempt to glorify is misplaced. Get help.

Maybe they still attack like that. Can you disprove that?

How a German Squad Attacks a Position.

That's the name of the training film.

What kind of help do you think I need?

You should seek psychological counseling because you have a narcissitic personality disorder. You believe that you are the smartest person in the room. You believe that all of your knee-jerk, poorly reasoned opinions are absolutely correct, and you never admit a mistake even after it is blatantly obvious that you are completely wrong.

Get help. You are a sick man, Captain Queeg. Stop playing with your balls and get help.

On this site, people wait patiently for a topic to be repeated, and only then attack with the Germans.

I do nazi the problem

People are interested in WW2 infantry tactics and this training film clearly demonstrates German Army infantry tactics.

The squad center of gravity was the powerful MG 34 (later the MG 42). All of the other riflemen of the squad were tasked to either carry ammo for the MG, serve as assistant gunner for the MG or to protect the flanks of the MG, because the bolt action Mauser Karabiner 98 simply didn't put out enough lethal firepower to make a good impact on an enemy infantry squad.

That attack seems BARely effective and GARANDteed to fail. MG 34 or no MG 34.

Very interesting. I don’t see what people are bitching about in this thread. Pretty sure it’s an American training video made to help understand and identify German tactics in order to defeat them, specifically.

Guaranteed to fail? Not likely, and, I don't think that anybody that was there would agree with you. The BAR was not excellent. The Garand was outstanding and allowed the US infantry to oppose the German infantry with power.

The smart US infantry battalion commander in WW2 would use his infantry to fix the enemy in position and then call down indirect mortar and artillery fire for the win. If your squads were trained to find the enemy MG and suppress it right away with fire, that was the winning tactic. Use smoke if necessary to blind the enemy MG!
