Ergebnis für "Propaganda" in Militär

Auf der Grundlage bisher nie veröffentlichter Dokumente erzählt der amerikanische Wissenschaftsjournalist Jack El-Hai von der Begegnung des amerikanischen Militärpsychiaters Douglas M.Kelley mit der Elite des Naziregimes – unter ihnen "Reichsmarschall" Hermann Göring.

November 1945 eröffneten "Nürnberger Prozess" vor dem Internationalen Militärgerichtshof untersuchten amerikanische Ärzte die inhaftierten 52 Nazigrößen auf ihre psychische Verfassung.

Ende 1944 wird der 16-jährige HJler zu einer Grundausbildung der Wehrmacht nach Böhmen geschickt, im März 1945 wird er für die «Kampfgruppe Böhmen in der SS-Panzergrenadierdivision Hitlerjugend» rekrutiert. Einen Monat später werden die Jungen an die Front bei Wien geschickt. Das Kind kämpft und tötet – und gerät in sowjetische Gefangenschaft. Es beginnt eine jahrelange Odyssee durch diverse Lager im Baltikum und in Russland. Erst 1950 kehrt er nach Hamburg zurück, von jeglicher patriotischer Abenteuerlust kuriert.

Die neuere Geschichte kennt nichts, was den Ereignissen des Frühjahrs 1945 vergleichbar wäre. Niemals zuvor sind im Untergang eines Reiches so viele Menschenleben vernichtet, so viele Städte ausgelöscht worden. Joachim Fest erinnert an ein Geschehen, das nicht nur politisch-historisch, sondern für ungezählte Mitlebende vor allem menschlich nichts anderes als ein Weltuntergang war.

It follows a young American Freemason taken in by the message of a soap-box orator who asserts that all good jobs in the country are being taken by minorities, domestic and foreign.

Il pifferaio magico invita alla guerra. La maggioranza silenziosa dei neutralisti resta incapace di farsi valere davanti al baccano degli interventisti. Come mai prima nella storia, la propaganda mostra la sua forza nel persuadere ma anche nel confondere e nel rimestare in sentimenti e credo diversissimi. Arriveranno i campi di battaglia e lì si incrineranno certezze e ideali di libertà e di democrazia, lì germoglieranno i semi del totalitarismo.

At a time when civilian periodicals faced strict censorship, the army’s chief of staff George Marshall won the support of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to create an expansive troop-newspaper program. Both Marshall and FDR recognized that there was a second struggle taking place outside the battlefields of World War II—the war of words. While Hitler inundated the globe with propaganda, morale across the US Army dwindled.

The British Broadcasting Corporation is a British institution, and its story during the Second World War is also our story.

The subtle art of propaganda campaigns directed against one's enemies has been a feature of war since ancient times. However, its potential for mass psychological impact truly began with the invention of modern electronic communications. An American citizen stranded in Japan as an enemy alien during World War II, Iva Toguri was a regular broadcaster of what she saw as entertainment for American sailors and their counterparts. Learn more about the controversial legacy of the war's most famous radio propaganda campaign.

In Britain, state broadcasting began at 18:00 on November 22, 1922 when Arthur Burrows, the Director of Programmes at the newly formed British Broadcasting Company, announced, “This is 2LO, Marconi House, London calling”. “London calling” became a key phrase used in broadcasts by the BBC. When the service began, most listeners were hobbyists who had their own radio receivers. In 1922, around 30,000 people in the UK had radio receiver licenses.

The following are live recordings of Japanese-American Iva Toguri, of "Tokyo Rose" infamy. Tokyo Rose was a generic name given by Allied troops in the South Pacific during World War II to all female English-speaking radio broadcasters of Japanese propaganda.
