Why were Nazi's such cowards, /pol/?
The last few months were a brutal fight. The Germans had to resort to sending children and old men to fight. I wouldn't say they were cowards, they gave it all they had. Their spirits were completely broken in the end.
Also if this post ends in doubles Germany rises up and sends all Muslims to concentration camp.
They pissed of the entire western world and they were going to get ass blasted if they surrendered. They basically did, anyway, but surrender would have drastically lowered the loss of life.

Are you defending the "Total War" tactic..
>They gave it their all
They would've been executed if they didn't fight for your peoples "savior"

Yep... once we went into Germany it got brutal. women and children with uniforms on or even manning tanks. It wasn't uncommon to find executed children and women ones the allies took a town.
the difference being allied occupation camps were actually bad

No supplies, no food, no Führer
Mongols and Niggers at the gates.
Italian traitors and and the second frog leg dodging

more of them surrender because they lost more surrendered if they won less would have surrendered. It is how war works anon

Germans are defeated once again, this time by chance.
The allies did mass reprogramming . There are a lot of sour es, google it.
One of the first things we did is send in an army of shrinks.
Also don't forget most of the best men in that war died in battle, or were hung in that mockery of a trial. The cucking of Germany was organized.

A lot of the prisoners on the Western Front were just overrun. They were a military that still relied on millions of horses fighting the only fully mechanized military on Earth. They couldn't retreat quickly enough to regroup before they were forced to withdrawal again. Of the ~2,000 tanks in Normandy they were able to retreat with 20.
It would have been even more had they closed the Falaise pocket more quickly.

By that time the glow of nationalism was shadowed by the fact their leader was an incompetent tactician and had through poor leadership in wartime ran their country into complete destruction and devastation. No amount of propaganda or patriotism could save them and it was pretty much a complete defeat. The Germany they had been fighting for did not exist anymore, so why fight for an extinguished vision.

What makes you think that there isn't a werwolf resistance still out there somewhere right now, biding their time, waiting for the Judeo-Bolshiviks to let their guard down?

Yup. In Cologne they blew the bridge without telling the troops they just sent over it to defend the city.

The only WW2 death in my family with in Cologne, one of the last KIAs of the war for the 3rd armored.

Bullshit. Even in the later stages of war the Germans didn't enlist women for combat.
>>71389702
The denazification process was probably a bigger blow than the actually bombs.
They managed to guilt trip and make them hate themselves so much that even today they dont ask questions when an 87 year old woman is thrown in jail for "holocaust denial'.
They sincerely think that throwing people in jail for have too far right opinions is ok because "duh nazis was so bad they have to outlaw opinions and self racial pride to stop dem from coming back".
Shit is so fucking pathetic it makes me sick.

Does anti-aircraft auxiliary count as combat?

Total war isn't restricted to just nazi doctrine, it is as old as warfare itself.
>>71393679
yes it does
The problem is the Nazis weren't cowards, but maybe they were simply disloyal to Hitler, who by 1944 had lost his mind.
Roosevelt, Churchill, DeGaulle, and even Stalin were willing to make deals with many of the Nazi bureaucrats. One would be foolish to think that the allied powers fundamentally disagreed with Hitler on everything he did or that they systematically killed every Nazi.
Churchill used to admit he liked Hitler. DeGaulle was essentially a French Fascist who was only butthurt that Hitler choose Marshall Petain rather than him to be the leader of Vichy.
It seems to me a lot of the Nazis just happened to find a comfortable place under the new management. Some probably even got paid better.

The last years of the war the germans understood that they had a degenerete leader and they lost all hope. They diddent whant to die for nothing.
