Why German Engineers Were Stunned After Testing a Captured Sherman
In the spring of 1943, German engineers took apart a captured American Sherman tank at the secret Kummersdorf proving ground south of Berlin. They measured. They tested. They documented. And what they found inside that tank did not make them laugh. It made them quiet. This is the story of what they discovered in War Daddy 2 — and why, two years later, Albert Speer kept their report in his pocket as the artillery closed in on Berlin. 00:00 The tank that arrived at Kummersdorf 11:40 The engine that started the first time 23:20 The transmission that hummed 34:10 The stabilizer the Germans could not build 47:50 The verdict that Germany already knew If your father, grandfather, or uncle drove a Sherman in the European Theater — or served in any armored unit that faced Panthers and Tigers — please leave his name, unit, or a short memory in the comments.
