Random Topic #7
The inspiration for this little video was selection of a random prompt, in this instance, “liberate.” A search of the Internet Archive came up with the newsreel footage and, with a limited amount of editing, this video was produced for a “random topic” blog post.

Hi Mike – fascinating footage … really interesting to see and to hear some of the stats … I think I’ll be back to re watch … thank goodness we came through … those prisoners looked desperate – and of course none it was their fault, or our fault … War is just deplorable … Hilary
Hi Mike – I came back … interesting it was 50 miles a day the British moved forward in the liberation, and 5 major cities were captured from the German army in 20 days … worth thinking about … and now it wouldn’t happen like that …
Thanks for posting … Hilary
Hi Hilary — It’s always interesting to find new snippets of history. Sometimes I get distracted far from what I intended to be doing.
