Patreon has ruined its app on iPad. The screen is so tiny, before it was full screen.

Good day Indy and family! I answered the call to upgrade my membership to officer status but I think it might have been missed in the shoutout this week, could I make it in next week? Thank you!!

A Doc Evangelista

Excellent !! Despite the complexity of the fighting, you have done a wonderful job explaining these multi-faceted confrontations. Thank you, Indy.

I'm a bit confused on why Stalin would want East Prussia. Or why Churchill would think that giving East Prussia to Stalin would be a good idea.

When does the Greek Royal Family return to Greece after it's liberation?

Bruce G. Hearns

Last year Netflix released a film "The Forgotten Battle" about the last few days before the Canadians liberated the Scheldt estuary.

I'm not sure, but I think you are using the wrong flag for the NZ Division in Italy. The NZ Flag has red stars with a white outline. The Australian flag has white stars.

Errol Cavit

A more distinctive symbol for the NZers would be the silver fern, used on gravestones since WW1 (and various other uses too). But I assume there is a policy to use flags.

Bruce G. Hearns

I think it is worth watching. Good production values, script and a compelling story of Dutch people in the last days before liberation, told from their point of view.

HOWARD DUCK

Funny - this is the first time I’ve ever heard the noun “cavalcade” used in a way to mean something other than exciting and dazzling.

Guillem N

Where is, repeat, where is Episode 269? The World Wonders.

TimeGhost

Hey Guillem, you can find episode 269 on our YouTube channel. We had some heavy production delays, so we weren't able to get it out as early as we hoped, and we were working on it down to the last minute. Thanks for your patience and hope you enjoy it!

they seem to have given up on previewing episodes early here

Joe Miserendino

was about to post the same question. getting ready to abandon youtube entirely with the new pay-or-die scheme. or at least until one of the ad blockers finds a way around it

Vlad the Impaler

This is a very, very big episode. Leyte Gulf has more than 4 naval battles, landings and controversy. That is just the Philippines. Pray give them time. Well, I mean episode 270.

Vinny Siracusa

Agreed, I have always used ABP and that has worked great for years. All of a sudden YT has been forcing me to turn it off.

Ublock Origins is still working fine

William Koehler

I download the video, then play it locally.

Joe Miserendino

i loaded Ublock Origins but then youtube just keeps re-loading the page, it never plays. No other extensions loaded.
