Wehrmacht: Incompetent yet Successful?

The Original Question: by garten .zwerg (words in [] replaced/removed due to YT sensitivity) "So far I gathered from your videos: The Kriegsmarine was [bad], the Luftwaffe was [bad] and the aces are overrated, Operation Sealion was a doomed operation, Operation Barbarossa was a doomed operation, Nazi engineering is extremely overrated and the Wehrmacht was in no way as technologically advanced as thought , Germans were almost always outnumbered and Blitzkrieg didnt exist or was in a sense an extremely old fashioned style of warfare. To me, this begs the question: How [] did the Nazi conquer most of Europe then? How can you be so inept but successful at the same time?" »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History Visualized provides a series of short narrative and visual presentations like documentaries based on academic literature or sometimes primary sources.
