Flight and Expulsion of Germans from Czechoslovakia (1945)

As the German Wehrmacht drove in to surrender, was disarmed and their soldiers taken prisoners of war in May 1945, also ethnic German civilians (Sudetendeutsche) had to flee from Czechoslovakia. The expulsion of Germans from Czechoslovakia after World War II was part of a series of evacuations and deportations of Germans from Central and Eastern Europe. In the months following the end of the war, "wild" expulsions happened from May until August 1945. Roughly 1.6 million ethnic Germans were deported to the American zone (West Germany), and an estimated 800,000 were deported to the Soviet zone (East Germany). The expulsions ended in 1948, but not all Germans were expelled. The West German government in 1958 estimated the ethnic German death toll during the expulsion period to be about 270,000, a figure that has been cited in historical literature since then.

Увидев улыбки немецких солдат, я вспомнил цитату из сериала "Рим", которая очень чётко описывает их эмоции: "Всю свою жизнь я боялся проиграть. Но теперь, когда пришёл час, всё совсем не так ужасно, как я ожидал. По-прежнему светит солнце, вода такая же вкусная, как и раньше. Слава имеет значение, но жить можно и без неё."

My great-grandparents and grandparents were falsely accused by German settlers and ended up in Theresienstadt, our farm, which our family had for 7 generations, was then given to the German settlers. My great-grandparents didn't survive that, nor did many others from my family. After the war, the farm was occupied by Russians because it belonged to Germans. After the revolution, we had to buy the farm back. But 220 hectares of land were gone forever. Now the family of the German settlers is demanding the farm back because it was legally transferred to them according to German law at the time. My question to them is, who is the victim here?

Scenes of one bare footed soldier, whilst a few yards behind him, another soldier has a pair of spare boots slung around his neck. An air of weariness seemed to pervade the whole scene, with the later lorries being noticeable more crowded than the earlier ones. Sad, what human beings will do to each other. Will we ever learn?

I remembered the Fourteenth volume of the works of Bokonon - last night I read it in its entirety. The fourteenth volume is entitled: "Can a reasonable person, given the experience of the last million years, have the slightest hope for a bright future for mankind?" Read the Fourteenth volume for a short time. It consists of just one word and a period: "No." "Cat's Cradle" by Kurt Vonnegut Я вспомнил Четырнадцатый том сочинений Боконона - прошлой ночью я его прочёл весь целиком. Четырнадцатый том озаглавлен так: «Может ли разумный человек, учитывая опыт последнего миллиона лет, питать хоть малейшую надежду на светлое будущее человечества?» Прочесть Четырнадцатый том недолго. Он состоит всего из одного слова и точки: «Нет». "Колыбель для кошки" Курт Воннегут

My wife’s grandfather was in the engineers building the forward bridges. He survived all 5 years of the war and never spoke about it to the family. One summers day When I was introduced to him for the first time He took me to his workshop to show me his carpentry tools. I knew nothing about carpentry but I’m a curious fellow so I was very interested to hear how are you do use the various tools to make all manner of things out of wood. Gradually I felt confident to ask him about the war and he completely opened up. He spoke for a couple of hours and he told me some pretty horrific stories.Of his first hand experiences. He seen the film saving Private Ryan it was similar, but worse. It’s amazing isn’t it how ordinary peaceloving people can be coerced to become involved in the most heinous crimes by their governments on both sides while the politicians sit behind the lines telling other people to commit murder.

Please do not dare compare the allies with Hitler and Mussolini and the German and Italian people! Some of the German people and the Italians were coerced, but many fully supported Hitler and Mossilini and their antisemitism. The allies didn't coerce their citizens into fighting the Nazis and Mussolini, they fought to stop a mass murdering lunatic from taking over a large part of the world. And whatever atrocities the allies committed during the war paled in comparison to the horrific destruction of millions of people the axis powers were responsible for.

People haven't changed bilogically or mentally, people have been innovative and creative since always. But despite these highly intelligent traits people are suckers for pride, lust, jealousy, hate, bias and therefore people have literally limitless potential for complete tragedy. People are easily misslead and groomed into whatever idiology and their minds can be changed through trickery, so again despite intelligence, people are highly naive without.. what they say.. "good guidance" So, When technology evolves or devolves, people get differend ways of expression, but people are the same and have been the same.

I didn't know that there was any massive expulsion of ethnic Germans from countries like Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Ukraine etc. (= Eastern Europe). I do know however that there was a massive expulsion from the western parts of Czechoslovakia and Poland, parts that are close to the Czech-German, Czech-Austrian and Polish-German borders and that were and obviously still are located in Central Europe. Plus, till 1948 was Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic a capitalist and democratic state, so the term "eastern" is wrong not only geographically, but also geopolitically. For a thousand years was Bohemia/Czechia a firm part of Central/Western Europe (geographically, economically, culturally, religiously etc.), yet only four decades of the socialist/communist regime in the 20th century mean that the country is for some "westerners" forever "eastern", just like "Eastern Germany". 30 years ago it was maybe understandable, but now it's only ignorant and stupid. And I do care, because my family is a North Italian/Austrian/Czech mix. Have a nice day.

A country which kills and expulses people from their homeland can hardly been called democratic, neither before nor after 1948. Basically it had been a Czech policy from 1919 on to oppress the German minority which accounted for 25 % of the population of "Czechoslovakia". No wonder those people welcomed the Nazis in 1938. As for the mass expulsions of Germans from all over Eastern Europe this led to an almost complete replacement of the war losses in manpower and explains to a large extent how the German economy recovered so quickly and fundamentally from the war destructions, better than most countries around which received more American aid per capita. At the same time the expulsion of the German minorities from all over East Europe stripped those countries from the most highly developed, civilised, productive and orderly part of their population and explains their decline which is often, but falsely attributed to communism alone, because even among the communist countries Central Germany (sometimes but falsely referred to as "East Germany") became the wealthiest.

360,000 Czechs and Slovaks executed and tortured to death in German concentration camps from 1939 to 1945. This preceded the deportation of a part of the German population that supported Adolf Hitler. This must be remembered before anyone starts to feel sorry for the poor Germans. Not all Germans had to leave, the expulsion did not concern those who were anti-Nazis or did not support the German occupation administration. Unfortunately, those were in a minority and they left Czechoslovakia in later years because they could not bear the shame of being Germans, members of the nation responsible for such terrible genocides and crimes against humanity.

Couldn’t bear the hatred. Yes. Nazi germany was supported by many ethnic Germans outside the German borders. Reprisals were expected, but are not right. An apolitical family had to leave or face extreme hardship. Generally, Czech ´S not from the area were brought in to round up and expel ethnic Germans. Local Czechs were less willing to do it as the two ethnicities had lived fairly peacefully for a few centuries.

This is the most happy-go-lucky expulsion or evacuation I have ever seen. The soldiers appear all disarmed, except for the hard-mounted guns on vehicles. I guess they knew they were lucky to have the chance to move west and surrender to the Americans and not the Reds. Its all good except for the beat up blonde girl. I have seen her in another film and she truly the most pathetic picture of confusion and shame. Notice that she seems to be wearing German uniform pants. Did she have nothing else to wear? I'm sure there is a horrible story there. Unfortunately, sexual violence as revenge has always been a thing.

The colorization humanizes her dehumanization (I guess she is German or Chzech who slept with the Germans). Nice work again! And the music adds up as always.

We had German pows in my hometown of Winchester virginia. My grandfather was a teenager and used to go feed him through the fence. They also had him down here at Hot Springs North Carolina where they built beautiful little cabins and Gardens and we're allowed to go eat on Sunday with families who picked them. Many of them stayed and married the daughters and never left North Carolina

Meanwhile native Afro-Americans, both resident and US military, were being treated extremely badly! German PoWs seemed to be 'home away from home'! In fact, many PoW camps were (conveniently!) near large German American populations. I can guarantee that no Afro American military personnel had "beautiful little cabins and Gardens and we're (sic) allowed to go eat on Sunday with families who (never) picked them."! .....I wonder how many Afro American troops "stayed and married the daughters and never left North Carolina"?

На самом деле в кинохронике мы видим не изгнание немцев из Чехословакии, а движение остатков войск нацистской Германии и русских колаборционистов в сторону американской зоны оккупации на западе Чехии (район Плзеня и Карловых Вар) с целью сдачи в плен (имея намерение избежать своё пленение советами).

During my school years, we only had some black & white photos in books and maybe a short film here and there. I was in school late 70s to early 80s. I didn't get a decent taste of history until college. Even then between what was taught and what we were told to believe didn't show a deep enough grasp of reality. This 10 min video shows a bigger view of what happened than my time in high school.
