You shouldn't be here momma.

I will fix this.

She goes down, she's gonna take you with her.

Don't you ever threaten me again.

It's still not over.

I'm having a panic attack.

Will you help me see Wes?

Oh my god!

Taylor Swift Now - Ep.8: I Totally Got Into Character. "Mean" - Duration: 1:22.

You know, the song "Mean" was very fun to write

Because, as a songwriter,

sometimes I really like to just suppose a

pretty dark lyric with a really happy sounding song.

Like, if you actually just read the lyrics of Mean

It sounds like, it's pretty heavy.

It's about feeling like you can't win.

No matter what you say, it's wrong.

No matter what you do, stuff is blamed on you.

No matter where you turn, you're turning the wrong way.

And that's a horrible, defeating feeling,

and a lot of us feel that way

throughout our lives many times.

But I wanted it to be something that

I was thinking about something

that makes you feel awful

but the song would make you feel good to sing.

So, that was, that was my main goal.

It was nice, it was nice singing about something

that makes me feel that terrible

and then going out and playing it for sold-out stadium

with people that were like "I feel that way too."

"Oh my god."

"That is terrible to feel that way."

"But let's sing it together and then we'll be happy."

It was cool wining two Grammys for that song.

That's another little, like,

Ok, I'm not along in feeling this way.

Kind of validation or whatever.

But the song is always gonna be special to me

because it's nice when you write something that...

helps you get through what you're actually going through.

Understanding the Third, Fourth and Fifth Dimensional Reality - Duration: 7:23.

Understanding the Third, Fourth and Fifth Dimensional Reality

When talking about esoteric topics such as, �third dimensional reality,� �ascending

into fifth dimensional consciousness,� or �raising your vibration,� it can begin

to sound like we are explaining the plot to a science fiction movie.

Even for the seasoned spiritual seeker, trying to describe the intangible in words that make

sense and are understandable to another person with no prior knowledge of such topics can

be difficult.

In order to better understand how dimensions work and what it means to be living in the

third, fourth or fifth dimension, we must think of a dimension as a point of perception

rather than an actual place to travel to.

Those living from 3d, 4d, or 5d consciousness are experiencing the same reality (on some

level), but rather their way of perceiving it is completely different.

By seeing things this way, it gives us a better understanding of how we can identify what

dimension we are mostly resonating with.

Also, it is quite possible to be experiencing multiple dimensions of consciousness simultaneously,

and as we wake up from third dimensional consciousness through to the fourth into fifth.

It is common for some aspects (belief systems) to still be rooted in 3d while other aspects

are rooted in a higher dimension.

While we may have many friends or family who are still rooted in third dimension, we find

ourselves resonating with fifth dimensional consciousness.

It is important to remember that one is no better than the other.

Each soul is experiencing their ascension journey in perfect timing.

Trying to force someone who is rooted in 3d to see the world from a 5d perspective will

not work until that person is energetically aligned to a frequency in which fifth dimensional

perspectives seem obvious rather than idealistic.

�The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our

awareness.� ~ Lao Tzu

Below are some examples of belief systems that are indicative of third, fourth and fifth

dimensional reality.

Third Dimensional Reality � The Physical Realm

�Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness.� ~ Alejandro Jodorowski

Alternative news, new paradigm, consciousness, nature of reality, spirituality, self help,

5th dimension, Paul A Philips, raising awareness In the third dimension you see yourself as

a separate entity in comparison to other people and the universe.

You are still rooted in the physical world, and feel appropriate to judge people based

on the color of their skin, age, gender, financial status etc.

� I am a person, the thinker of these thoughts, and these thoughts are my thoughts.

� I seek happiness outside of myself.

Things like money, material possessions, relationships, and physical attributes seem to be the key

to my fulfillment.

� I must compete with others in order to �make it� so I can get my share of abundance.

� Life is characterized by polar opposites.

There are good decisions and bad decisions, good thoughts and bad thoughts, good people

and bad people, for example.

� The labels I have for myself define who I am as a person.

Words like parent, wife, son, my job title, home-owner, etc. are how I identify myself

in comparison to others.

Fourth Dimensional Reality � The Hallway into the Fifth Dimension, Consciousness begins

to Awaken

�A shift in perspective makes the particles in your universe dance to new possibilities.�

~ Annie Kagan

As the light of consciousness begins to awaken within, your belief system of third dimensional

reality seems absurd.

You may even become angry or resentful of the society that implanted these belief systems.

In fourth dimension, comparison and judgment still exist however with more �spiritual�

themes.

For example, you may describe yourself as �awake� while judging those you feel are

�asleep.�

The attention has shifted from pursuits in the material world to the pursuit of knowledge

and understanding.

� I am angry because I have been lied to.

I must warn and tell others about the Illuminati, government, reptilians, chemtrails, etc�

� Since on some level I believe that I am my mind, I am weary of things like mind control

or subliminal messages.

� I may take on a spiritually themed ego structure.

In this case, I may judge those who still eat meat, watch the news, drive a car, etc�

� More knowledge and better understandings seem to be the key to my fulfillment.

� Ego is my ultimate enemy and therefore my �goal� is to get rid of it.

Fifth Dimensional Reality � Unity Consciousness, The All is the One, and the One is the All

As consciousness begins to awaken even further, the ego drops and judgments begin to fade

away.

You realize that the darkness of the world is a direct reflection of the shadow that

still exists inside of you.

You no longer try to change the world, but rather begin to heal yourself.

Alternative news, new paradigm, consciousness, nature of reality, spirituality, self help,

5th dimension, Paul A Philips, raising awareness The love that grows within begins to translate

into compassion and understanding for the external world.

� Love is the only weapon that truly holds power.

� I am no longer attached to my labels, but see myself as an ever-changing field of

consciousness.

� I ultimately hold all the power to �create� my perception of reality, nothing is inherently

�good� or �bad�.

Nothing has power over me or my reality unless I have on some level agreed to it.

� Judgment now has become discretion.

Although I no longer judge people from a moral standpoint, I use discretion in what I spend

my time and energy on.

� I am beginning to see that �god�, �the universe,� or �source� lies within.

� As the master inside of me begins to awaken I realize I have held the power all along.

The fear of mind control and manipulation drops away.

Inside the Chieftain's Hatch: M4A1 Sherman Part 2 - Duration: 28:06.

Welcome back to the military vehicle technology foundation

and our tour, part 2, of an early model m4a1.

Ok it's a Grizzly, but who's keeping track?

Now the first thing you'll notice as you're looking at the turret

is that there is no loader's hatch,

which is what you might call a surprising omission.

In fact the reaction is "what on earth were they thinking?"

Now in fairness of them they're still learning,

and if you look at the M3 medium, that didn't have

a loader's hatch either, but it was a smaller turret.

The problem of course, you can imagine.

If you've got to get out of the tank in a hurry

for some reason like, I don't know, the tank is on fire,

it's a bit difficult if you don't have a hatch of your own.

What is perhaps less excusable was

it took a year and a half of production,

and about a year's worth of combat experience

before somebody finally figured out how to drill a hole

in the roof of the turret and install a hatch.

These started coming off the production lines October 43.

Now, there was a retrofit kit put out,

so if you're in the field and you had a no-hatch Sherman,

you could get this kit that would come,

it will tell you make a hole here in the turret roof

and install this hatch

the loaders became much happier,

but still it was a surprising omission.

Also surprising was that the idea didn't die.

If you look at the Merkava IV, the Israeli tank,

the early models of that

looks like they did not come with loaders hatch.

Doubtless is proved unpopular as evidenced by the fact

that after a very brief period of time the tank started appearing

with loaders hatches It's a structural weakness

but you have got to give the crew a chance.

Other features around the turret.

Speaking of hatches, this is not the original hatch

that came with an early 75-millimeter tank.

It was the originally the split hatch.

Simply two pieces of simple metal that came up,

there would be a single rotating periscope

in one of them and that's how you would see out.

Very unsatisfactory.

It also had a mount for the calibre 50 on the ring.

Now, what turned out happened was that the vision cupola

was the same diameter as that of the split hatch

so it's actually very easy to take vision cupola

and put in place of the split hatch and all of a sudden you have

a much, much better hatch.

So for example this one now has an azimuth ring

if you needed it for some reason

as well as the periscope.

A simple, easy, hatch to come down.

The split hatches kept going quite a way through the war

they did start installing springs

to make them easier to open in the middle of '43.

Still, the Grizzlies as near as we can tell,

all came out with originally the split hatch design.

There was also the British vision cupola,

which was a very good design

but obviously the Americans didn't use it.

As we move further round

pick up the mounting point for the calibre 50

which has now been moved back and left.

The machine gun, of course, could only be fired

really by somebody at standing on the back deck

so not really useful for the crew.

This is a rest for the barrel

so the gun will be resting forward and horizontally this way.

Latch it out of the way, put it down, and you can see

the spotlight that could be controlled from within the tank,

the loader had a handle, or it could be discounted

and hand held in a pistol grip that the commander has.

If we move forward, we see the commander has vane site.

This is used simply to gauge direction

as he's telling the gunner to spin onto a target

he knows roughly which way the gunner is looking.

Speaking of the gun you'll see that there are

very large screws at the front.

This was done for modularity.

The idea was that you could turn the tank

into pretty much any required configuration

by simply swapping out the gun.

Undo the bolts and install module A, module B.

Not in the field. Once it left the factory.

the idea was it was the same thing,

but you could very easily swap it out on the production line,

and these would be anything from the 57-millimeter, 75 the 105,

or they were hoping for the three-inch.

Didn't work out,

we'll come back to that story at a future point.

That's pretty much the outside of the turret roof

so let's go inside.

I have moved inside to where the commander would be seated.

I'm on a fold down seat:

A very simple, lift latch, fold down.

If I wanted to be seated with my head out

there is actually an additional platform down here

which I have folded it out of the way.

It is cozy in here.

The breech recoil guard is taking up a lot of my space

and I've had to place one leg on either side of the gunner's seat.

Not a good start.

Controls, as he's going around.

Well he's going to have an override handle here,

push forward for left-back for right,

and all this is a simple physical cable

that goes all the way down and moves the Gunners control handle,

which then moves the rest of the system.

Very useful for getting your gunner

on to target quickly, you don't have to yell at them

to go and left, right, hey you missed it,

you've gone too far, your other left.

I'm sure you're familiar with that, some of you.

As you start moving around underneath is a pistol grip

for the spotlight so you would dismount it

from the position on the front of the turret

and put it on here and you can wave it around

and see whatever it is you need seeing.

To see out, speaking of seeing, the six vision blocks

on the direct vision cupola.

So again, early thanks did not have this vision cupola,

they had the simple split hatch which comes down

with the periscope in the middle of it.

This is far better.

Not ideal by modern standards but by world war two standards,

this was one of the best cupolas you were going to get.

As we move around to the back we see… rations.

Packaged by Patent food products, Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Ration type K.

Use as a waterproof container for matches, cigarettes and other items.

For security, hide the empty cannon wrappers

so they cannot be seen.

I'm in a 40 ton tank or, thirty-five ton tank

and I'm worrying about seeing wrappers.

The radio behind him is either an SCR 508 528 or 538,

all things depending and this is a 20 frequency set.

You can listen on 20 and speak on 10.

They are selectable.

Your program, you spend your time ahead of time,

programming your crystals and then use the push buttons

to select whichever frequency it is that you want to transmit on or monitor.

Pretty similar to the way we have things today.

That's pretty much it for the commander's seat,

and next I'm going to move forward to the gunner.

While we're here let's talk elephants again,

and that means the gun.

75mm M3 was familiar from the m3 medium.

It wasn't a low-velocity gun,

it wasn't really a high-velocity gun,

it was sort of in the middle, general purpose,

but still one of the best things that the Americans had at the time.

In fact since it was developed from the 1897 gun

which was mounted on the m3 half-track,

the tank destroyer of the time,

and you end up with the surprising-to-some situation

that the Sherman actually had a better gun to the tank destroyer.

Marginally, but there you go.

That's another long story you'll see in my videos,

but yes, tanks were supposed to kill tanks.

Now by this point of the war the Americans had started

solving a lot of ammunition problems

that they had had with the m3 medium.

So at this point now you have armor-piercing high-explosive,

you have shot, you have high explosive,

you have smoke/white phosphorus.

All very useful.

The AP round, the m61, that was rated for about

three point six inches at muzzle of RHA,

or four inches of face hardened under Navy criteria.

This in practice meant that although you can knock out

a Panzer 3 or a Panzer 4, if you can hit it,

pretty much at any range,

unless you got a good flank shot on a Tiger or,

at least a reasonable shot on a Panther,

the best you could do would just be

to batter it into submission, which in all fairness,

actually happened with surprising frequency.

Anyway that was the end of the options for the Americans.

They did try in August 1941 starting a program

to mount a 3-inch high-velocity cannon.

However, the gun was just too big, too heavy.

Solution B was to take the 76 millimeter which just been developed,

found on the M18 Hellcat, and put that in here.

So they stuck it in, it worked, Ordnance signs off on it, hooray,

and an order of a thousand was made and to be ready

for the invasion of North Africa in late 1942.

This was all well and good until Armored force actually got ahold

of one of the prototypes and they took a look,

and said, no we don't want it, it is too cramped,

it is too inefficient, the sights aren't good,

yadda yadda.

So they nixed it and they told them to try again,

and it ended up being the T23 turret

which I hope to come across again in some future episode.

On a late-model Sherman.

Two exceptions did happen.

One was the British that stuffed the 17-pounder into this.

You know, it's cramped enough in here with the 75,

I can't imagine what they thought of the 17 pounder,

especially if they thought the 76 was bad.

The other was after the war,

under the MDAP program,

the Americans refitted some of these tanks

with 76 millimeter guns anyway, and gave them to Allies.

And crew efficiency be damned, they were going to get these tanks.

They wanted some tanks.

The most famous of these can be found

in the movie Kelly's Heroes. You look at them,

they're 76mm Shermans with the small turrets.

The loudspeakers are optional. So that's about enough on the guns

we're going to come back to that probably as I say,

in a future Sherman episode, assuming I can find one,

and the meantime let's move on to the controls.

Now the gunner's seat itself is actually quite comfortable.

My left foot is comfortably resting on the two-foot triggers,

my right foot a little bit underneath the manual traverse,

but it's protected by the skeletonized turret basket rim

so it stops my feet from getting crushed

as turret traverses.

Under power traverse, control, of course, being done here,

a full circle would be about 24 seconds.

If you wished you could go to a manual Traverse mode,

you can see it is now disconnected,

by pushing down on this release lever.

You now go into an actual manual transmission

which is fairly quick.

Let's go back up.

Elevation: of course you have the manual elevation control option here,

reasonably quick, but better yet,

just like on the m3

you can disconnect the elevation gear

and now your gun is very well balanced

and can be used in a stabilized mode.

And why would you do this?

Well, obviously so that you can get the target

into your sights quicker as you're moving cross country.

Speaking of sights, originally the only one

that came with the tank was the periscopic one

through the turret roof.

It was Periscope, M4, with Telescope M38,

and as you can see there's the wide field of vision

on the left side, and when you have your target

more or less in the middle you can then look with your right eye

through the telescope, which is a x1.4

and has a reticle in it. Fantastic.

Now, why would you do this as opposed to having

a direct vision scope such as this one?

Well, there are a couple of reasons.

Firstly, it allows you to have that really wide field of vision

which is very important for acquiring the target.

He who sees the enemy first

will probably shoot first and will probably win.

The other advantage

is that if your sight is going through the roof,

you can spot the enemy without exposing your turret.

So you can stay hidden, keep an eye out,

and away you go.

However, there was a couple of problems as well.

The linkages between the periscope and the gun,

which has been unfortunately removed on this,

they weren't the most reliable, and it took a field modification

to come out that really kept the sights aligned.

In the long run the solution was to install

a direct vision scope as well.

This was originally the M55, it wasn't well-received,

they updated it to the M70F.

Now, this gave you is some additional capability.

Firstly it was a x3 optic instead of the x1.4,

so arguably this would become the primary site de facto.

But imagine what this does now for your engagement speed.

If you're in a turret-down position,

in ambush waiting for the enemy to show up,

you can be scanning around looking with your periscope.

You see a target, you lay on it,

you're in stabilized mode. But you're still behind the berm,

you cannot engage the target because if you press 'fire'

you're going to hit the dirt right in front of you.

"Driver, move out." You then move your head

to the direct vision sight, with the stabilizer engaged,

as soon as the gun has cleared the berm that you're hiding behind,

the hillcrest, whatever, "driver stop."

you are already on the target.

It's in your sights because of the stabilizer system.

You now know that you have just cleared the berm,

so you can shoot quickly, take the shot,

probably fire a second shot, fall back behind cover,

return to your wide view optic and start the process over again.

This was a level of capability

that no other tank had in the world in 1942, 1943.

Ok, 43 by the time you had these things in.

Indeed it was pretty much unique through to until the Korean War.

Centurion finally came along.

Other things in the gunner's compartment.

Well, you've got the rheostat for the stabilizer system,

there's an azimuth indicator down here for indirect fire,

so this will give you the line of bearing horizontally;

for elevation you would use the gunner's quadrant

and simply place it onto the breech-block.

Other than that, this is a comfortable position.

Very ergonomically well designed,

the gunner can get the most out of this tank.

That done, let's go on to what I'm going to assume

is slightly less pleasant, the loader's.

As you come over to the loader's side,

there's bad news and good news.

The bad news, I've already mentioned:

The lack of a hatch. In order to get here

had to come under the recoil guard and I can only assume

things get more difficult if the gun is in elevation.

Fortunately in depression it gets much better

and I think that if your tank is knocked out,

it's probably more likely the direction will be in.

The good news though is once you're in here,

it's actually very roomy.

I am sitting on his seat, it's not annoying at all,

there's ventilation up here and I have visibility

through the rotating and elevation-adjustable periscope.

2-inch smoke bomb thrower is to his left.

Originally this was a British request,

the Americans eventually got in.

There used to be a pistol port back here.

Now this was deleted in April of 43, it wasn't deemed necessary.

The crews objected to this, they deemed it was necessary

and so later on in production the pistol port

was added back in again after a brief absence.

Ammunition:

Ninety seven rounds of 75 millimeter were available to him

and it was stowed pretty much all around the tank.

The sequence of events for taking the ammunition

was firstly you took it from the ammo box under the gun

then it will be the front-right sponson

and then it will be underneath the turret

then it will be the right rear sponson…

and the idea was that the two or three rounds

that were actually in clips..

there's no clips here but there would be,

they were extreme emergency only.

The default was that you were going to take it out of the box

and that was deemed to be fast enough.

You may question whether or not that is true,

well actually it's not that bad.

So if you'll bear with me for a moment while I demonstrate,

and you will note

I am doing all this from the seated position.

Come down, you lift up the ammo bin lid,

so you probably do this once at the beginning of the action.

Once that's out of the way

you lift up the etaining clips of the ammunition

so I now have four rounds easily available to me.

Lean down, grab the round, I now have a 75 millimeter round.

Place it into the breach which is closed on this tank

so I can't actually do it,

and then throw the round all the way into the gun.

Now again this is…

I can't remember the last time I was in a world war two tank like this

and I could load the gun all eight ready rounds,

plus the ones in the clips, so maybe ten rounds,

from the seated position. This is wonderful.

If only they had thought to put a damned door in the turret.

They actually are called doors, and we call them hatches by default,

but technically they're doors.

Also technically, the loader is known as the cannoneer,

although I've never ever met anybody who refers to the loader

as a cannoneer in routine operation.

4700 rounds of caliber 30 would be fitted.

Of course, the caliber 30, coaxial to the main gun here

and he has his control up here for the spotlight

that we talked about earlier.

That's pretty much it for the loader's side,

this would be a wonderful position to be in after October of 43.

Otherwise, the "oh my god the tank is on fire" test

I think immediately from this is going to fail.

And move to the front of the hull, the driver's position.

I am now in the up position, so I can drive open hatch

easily enough, and of course,

the seat will move down

to a much more reasonable position for driving with the hatch closed.

Alright, so this hatch unfortunately is not complete,

it is not going to lock all the way down,

but you can get a general idea of the situation.

So my left foot, of course, is going to be on the clutch.

It's a reasonably heavy clutch, unfortunately, on this particular tank.

I've seen other tanks that the club very light,

so it seems to be a matter of, well, just how much is the tank used.

I've driven Shermans before, trust me, this is not normal.

He has two optics to look out of.

Firstly, he has the traditional

rotating adjustable elevation directly in front.

Should something happen to this

he can move to an auxiliary further forward,

but that doesn't rotate or elevate at all.

For controls, the traditional two tillers

and if you pull back, there is a rocker down here

which engages and disengages the ratchets which also turn it

into the parking brake. So pull back both tillers,

pull up on the rocker

the parking brake has now been engaged…

and now disengaged.

Accelerator, low on the right, not a problem there, fuel pump.

Gear shift is now to its right.

If you remember on the M3 medium, the driver sat astride the gearbox.

No longer, on the m4.

So he has quite a simple system,

your traditional manual transmission on the right.

No particular issues there.

You do see also they have here

the windshield for the driver,

so if he's driving in a low threat environment

but it's wet or something like that, he puts up this drivers hood

which gives him protection from the wind and the rain.

Very nice, it even comes with a windshield wiper

to keep the rain off.

The control panel on the left

this is pretty much typical

with the light switch on the fair left-.

Fuel cut-off is how you turn off the engine,

the magnetos are left, right, or both.

and of course you would boost and start.

This control mechanism really doesn't change

throughout most of the Army's tanks from the 1930s to the 1950s.

In fact you still see headlight switches

still more or less the same today.

Auxiliary fuel pump, when you need it,

and your additional normal array of amperes,

voltmeter, rpms, tops out at 3,500 you see there is no red line.

There should be a red line because it shouldn't really go,

if I recall, over 2,800, but there is no red line.

Miles an hour, goes up to 80. There's optimism.

Temperature gauge low oil pressure light,

and of course, circuit breakers.

This is an easy vehicle to drive.

The fact you don't need to double clutch is very nice.

It's not quite as good as an automatic transmission,

but if you've got to have manual, and I do like driving manuals,

this is a lot of fun.

That is pretty much

everything I'm going to say about the driver's side,

I will now move over to bow gunner.

Moving over the bow gunner, and the first thing I will note

is that the hatch actually works on this

so it's easily enough locked into place

by using this screw system, no particular problems there.

We'll come back to that.

His primary toy is the Browning 1919A4

in a simple ball mount.

To aim it, he simply follows his tracers

by use the periscope, either the rotating elevating one

in the bow gunner's hatch, or the fixed one further forward.

I note that there's a couple of spare periscopes

mounted around as well of course, should they get shot up.

The utility of the bow machine gun is questionable.

It looks like it was retained simply because

when the tank was moving, it was the most accurate system

on the tank, if you didn't have a stabilizer,

and the stabilizer I've gone into before.

The stabilizer actually worked very well

if you happened to be a member of the crew

who know how to use it. Unfortunately,

it was so secret they didn't teach anybody

how to use it. Go figure.

Other parts around the tank.

There is ammunition stowed on the right here,

behind this little plate.

Further forward where we now have a storage compartment,

would otherwise go an SCR 506 radio

if this was a command tank in American service.

Now, down at my feet is one of your big indicators

of a Grizzly versus an American-produced Sherman.

It is a small hatch which is designed

for deploying the snake anti-mine system.

Don't ask me what it is but that is what it is for.

The Canadian tanks had this, the American ones did not.

There is a proper escape hatch further to the rear

and as far as escape hatches go at the period,

it's not small. It's a reasonable size.

Compared to, say the Matilda from earlier,

or even the T-34, this is something

you can probably get out of even if you're wearing winter kit,

so point there.

The transmission oil is checked down here

through this little filler port

and that's pretty much it.

There remains one more test

this is again the small hatch Sherman.

Now, the thing about Sherman's is

although they have a reputation of being death traps, they weren't.

On average, the Americans found they lost

maybe point 6 of a person per killed tank

and the survivability rating of this tank

is higher than pretty much any other tank on the battlefield

per knocked out tank,

and part of the reason for it is once they fixed

the loader's hatch issue, which I think I mentioned before,

getting out of the Sherman is really, really easy.

And bear in mind this is the small hatch Sherman

so I will try the "oh bugger, the tank is on fire" test

with a small hatch Sherman and we'll let's see how I do.

Now one last point I'll note before I conduct the test

is that there is a minor cheat.

In 1943 they started issuing spring kits.

Before that, in the tank to open up the doors,

you were fighting against the full weight of the hatch.

However, come 43 someone decided "let's put springs on it"

and make it much easier to open and get out,

and this is one of these retro fitted tanks.

Of course, off the production lines they were added as well.

So, without further ado,

oh bugger the tank is on fire.

Try doing that in a T-34 or a Comet. Won't work.

So now I'm out, let's close up.

Firstly, a note on names.

It is of course well known that the British,

specifically Churchill,

came up with the name Sherman for the tank.

However, it wasn't until late nineteen forty-four

that US Army Ordnance finally decided

to give it a name of General Sherman.

The troops fighting on the front lines didn't really care

what US Army Ordnance thought the tank should be named,

and they just continued to call it the medium, or the m4,

It wasn't until after the war that the name Sherman

began in American parlance

to be commonly associated with the M4 Medium.

When it came out in 1942 this is arguably

the best tank in the world, however

there were a couple of glitches.

the turret hatches, the optics were the main ones.

Still, by 1943 they had started fixing these

and it really was an excellent tank.

You can argue best, not best, but it was definitely very good.

Technology progress quickly, however.

What was world-leading in 1942 was much less so in 1944.

Fortunately, by this point

the improved Shermans were coming off the production line

and there were entirely different beasts.

I do hope to do one of these in a future episode,

so we'll come back to that then.

About 33,000 of the tanks were made

plus an additional 4600 with 105 howitzer.

Of these about half of them went to the UK

and an additional 2,000 went to the Soviets.

That's not bad for a country that in five years prior to the war

had only built a hundred medium tanks.

That was the m4a1 medium, We'll see on the next one.

Right proudly high over Dublin town the hung out the flag of war.

'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky

than at Sulva or sud-el-bar.

And from the plains of Royal Meath

strong men came hurrying through.

While Britannia's huns with their long-range guns

sailed in through the foggy dew…

And unfortunately we are short for time

so we'd better get back to work.

Trump Voter's Family Deported - Duration: 7:42.

>> SOME OF DONALD TRUMP'S SUPPORTERS FEEL A BIT OF BUYER'S

REMORSE NOW THAT HE IS ROLLING OUT SOME OF HIS CAMPAIGN

PROMISES.

ONE INDIVIDUAL IS ACTUALLY A SYRIAN AMERICAN.

SHE

HAS A CHRISTIAN BACKGROUND AS

OPPOSED TO A MUSLIM ONE.

SHE WAS THE NAME COMMUNITY THAT HAS MORE

SYRIAN CHRISTIANS.

BUT WHEN TRUMP ISSUED HIS TRAVEL BAN

WHICH TARGETED MUSLIM MAJORITY

COUNTRIES SHE WAS SHOCKED AND ALSO VERY ANGRY BECAUSE IT

SPECIFICALLY IMPACTED HER AND

HER FAMILY.

WITHOUT FURTHER ADO LET'S HEAR FROM HER.

LISTEN TO THE FIRST VIDEO WHERE SHE EXPLAINS HER OUTRAGE.

>> THIS WAS OUR RIGHT, OUR CONSTITUTION LIFTS THAT SO I

DON'T KNOW HOW IT CAN BE TAKEN AWAY FROM US.

THE SAFETY OF

AMERICA IS THE NUMBER ONE, BUT WE SHOULD CONSIDER WHAT WE ARE

DOING BEFORE WE THROW IT OUT THERE.

>> LAST WEEKEND SHE WATCHED TWO OF HER BROTHER-IN-LAW'S, THEIR

WIVES, AND CHILDREN GET DEPORTED BACK TO DAMASCUS FROM

PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONAL EVEN

THOUGH THEY HAD U.S. VISAS.

AGAIN, THEY GOT DEPORTED BACK TO SYRIA.

SHE IS MAD.

>>WHAT DID WE TELL YOU?

YOU THOUGHT HE WANTED TO

DISCRIMINATE AGAINST OTHER

PEOPLE THOUGHT IT TURNS OUT YOU DREW THE SHORT STRAW, NOW HE IS

DISSEMINATING AGAINST YOUR

FAMILY.

I GUESS THEY THOUGHT IT WASN'T REALLY GOING TO HAPPEN.

PENNSYLVANIA MADE ALL THE

DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD, AND SHE LIVES IN PENNSYLVANIA.

>>WE HAD PROGRESSIVES THAT WERE STAUNCHLY AGAINST VOTING FOR

HILLARY CLINTON.

THEY FELT IF WE

END UP ELECTING DONALD TRUMP, HE IS A WILD CARD.

HE'S PROBABLY

NOT EVEN GOING TO DO HALF THE THINGS HE SAYS.

WELL, HE PRETTY

MUCH CLAIMED EVERYTHING HE WAS

GOING TO DO IN THE FIRST TWO WEEKS, AND HE'S PLANNING ON

DOING MORE.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE WHAT SOMEONE SAYS IS A

SERIOUS STATEMENT AS OPPOSED TO

ASSUMING THAT YOU KNOW WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO.

>>BY THE WAY TODAY IN FLORIDA WE FOUND OUT THERE WERE MORE

INVALID VOTES, ON PURPOSE.

EITHER PEOPLE WHO LEFT IT BLANK

OR PUT IN SILLY NAMES LIKE TIM

TEBOW.

THERE ARE MORE OF THOSE VOTES THAN THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN HILLARY CLINTON AND

DONALD TRUMP.

SO THE PEOPLE WHO WROTE IN MICKEY MOUSE COST

HILLARY CLINTON FLORIDA.

THOSE GUYS WERE DISGRUNTLED WITH BOTH

CANDIDATES, HILLARY CLINTON COST HERSELF THE ELECTION.

SHE

SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN PEOPLE EXCITED AND

OFFERED THEM CHANGE.

>>SHE WAS ASKED WHETHER SHE CONTINUES TO SUPPORT TRUMP AFTER

WHAT HE DID.

HERE IS HER ANSWER.

>>CAN I ASK YOU IF YOU ARE STILL A SUPPORTER OF PRES.

TRUMP?

>> I AM A SUPPORTER OF THE CONSTITUTION.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT

HE IS GOING TO DO NEXT.

I CAN'T COMMENT AT THIS POINT.

>>I WANT TO GO TO THE NEXT CLIP BECAUSE HER STATEMENT IS SO

IRONIC.

>> TO ME, HUMANS AND AMERICANS ARE FOR EACH OTHER, AND WE ARE

TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE THAT ARE IN NEED.

WE DEFINITELY DO NOT WANT

ANY TERRORISTS ON OUR LAND, BUT WE CANNOT TURN OUR BACK ON

HUMANS.

WE ARE HUMANS AND WE ARE AMERICAN.

AND WE HAVE ALWAYS HELPED OTHERS, AND WE SHOULD NOT STOP

HELPING OTHERS.

>> HER STATEMENT IS TRUE, BUT THE REASON WHY I DON'T FEEL BAD

FOR HER IS BECAUSE SHE VOTED FOR

A GUY WHO CONSISTENTLY TURNED HIS BACK ON HUMANS THROUGHOUT

HIS ENTIRE CAMPAIGN.

YOU VOTED FOR SOMEONE WHO REFERRED TO

MEXICANS AS CRIMINALS AND

RAPISTS WHICH HAS DEFAMED AN ENTIRE GROUP OF PEOPLE.

YOU

VOTED FOR SOMEONE WHO CALLED

WOMEN PIGS AND TALKED ABOUT GRABBING THEIR GENITALS.

HE

ALLEGEDLY RAPED ONE OF HIS WIVES, BUT THAT STORY JUST KIND

OF WENT AWAY.

YOU VOTED FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN CLEAR ABOUT

HIS DISDAIN FOR BLACK PEOPLE AND HOW BLACK LIFE MATTER IS SOME

SORT OF TERRORIST ORGANIZATION.

HE CONSISTENTLY TURNS HIS BACK

ON PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT LIKE HIM.

I AGREE WITH YOUR STATEMENT, YOU

VOTED FOR THE WRONG PERSON.

I DON'T FEEL BAD FOR YOU.

>> SHE IS ALMOST THE DEFINITION OF TRADE UNIONISTS.

IT TURNS OUT

THEN THEY CAME FOR YOU, AND THERE WAS NO ONE LEFT TO DEFEND.

I KNOW ANA IS ANGRY, AND ALL THE RIGHT IN THE WORLD.

THE REALITY

IS WE ARE HERE TO DEFEND THEM.

WE ARE GOING TO TRY TO FIGHT

BACK AGAINST TRUMP AND GET THE BAN REVERSED.

WHETHER SHE AND

ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR

TRUMP LEARN THAT LESSON IS UP TO THEM.

MAYBE IF HER FAMILY COMES

BACK

AND SHE WILL SAY BUT IT WAS

MY FAMILY AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY KICKED THEM OUT, AND I

DON'T CARE AT ALL ABOUT THE REST

OF YOU.

UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS WHAT YOU GUYS DID.

BUT

NONETHELESS I WILL FIGHT FOR HER AND ALL THOSE GUYS AND WE WILL

TRY TO GET THEIR BACK.

>> I JUST DON'T KNOW WHEN WE CAN HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE FOR

VOTING SOMEONE IGNORANTLY INTO OFFICE.

AT SOME POINT PEOPLE WHO

MADE A BAD DECISION SHOULD BE OPEN TO THAT CRITICISM, IN THIS

CASE YOU VOTED FOR THE WRONG PERSON.

HE IS NOT IN FAVOR OF

YOU.

MIDDLE-CLASS AMERICANS, WORKING-CLASS AMERICANS,

WORLDWIDE AMERICANS, HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOU.

IF YOU CARED

ABOUT YOU ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS HE WOULD DO IS MAYBE STOP

TRYING TO GET VISAS FOR FOREIGN WORKERS TO WORK ON HIS

CONSTRUCTION HERE IN THE UNITED STATES.

MAYBE HE WOULD HIRE

AMERICAN WORKERS?

HE DOESN'T DO THAT BECAUSE HE DOESN'T CARE

ABOUT YOU, HE KNOWS THAT YOUR CONCERNS ARE AND YOUR WORRIES

ARE, AND EXPLOITS THEM TO THE FURTHEST EXTENT BUT HE DOES NOT

CARE ABOUT YOU.

HE WOULD'VE BEEN USING STEEL MADE IN THE UNITED

STATES IF HE DID. AND SAID HE USED STEEL AND OTHER PRODUCTS

MADE AND MANUFACTURED IN CHINA.

WEIRD.

WHY WOULD HE DO THAT?

I THOUGHT HE WANTED TO EMPLOY MORE

AMERICAN WORKERS?

HE TALKS A TALK.

BEHIND-THE-SCENES HE IS

AND EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING TO

SCREW YOU. AND NOW YOU HAVE BEEN VICTIMIZED BY HIS BEHAVIOR.

PLEASE, BE WISER WHEN YOU MAKE THESE DECISIONS.

Trump Getting Tough On Israel? - Duration: 4:00.

>>WE HAVE SOME BREAKING NEWS I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU GUYS.

THE

WASHINGTON POST IS REPORTING THAT DONALD TRUMP MAY HAVE A

MORE NUANCED POSITION AND A

SHIFT IN HIS FOREIGN-POLICY IN REGARD TO ISRAEL.

ACCORDING TO

THEIR HEADLINE, TRUMP WARNS ISRAEL THAT NEW SETTLEMENTS "

MAY NOT HELP ACHIEVE MIDDLE EAST

PEACE."

IT MARKS A MORE NUANCED POSITION AND WHAT HAS BEEN HIS

PRO-ISRAEL STANCE.

HE NOMINATED DANIEL FRIEDMAN, A STRONG

SUPPORTER OF WEST BANK SETTLEMENTS TO BE US AMBASSADOR

TO ISRAEL.

IN DECEMBER, HE

PRESSURED THE OBAMA MINISTRATION TO GET A UNITED NATIONS

RESOLUTION.

AS THE STORY DEVELOPS IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP

IN MIND HE HAS APPARENTLY MADE

SOME STATEMENTS THAT SHOWS A SHIFT IN HIS POSITION.

>>WHAT DID I TELL YOU?

>>I DON'T KNOW.

>> I SAID ONE OF THE FEW BRIGHT SPOTS OF HOPE FOR DONALD TRUMP

IS THAT HE MIGHT ACTUALLY GET A

PEACE DEAL DONE IN ISRAEL.

PEOPLE LOOKED AT ME AND SAID ARE

YOU INSANE?

OUR JOB IS TO LISTEN METICULOUSLY AND TRACK THE NEWS.

IN THE MIDST OF ALL THE THINGS

THAT TRUMP WAS SAYING IN THE PRIMARY AND THE GENERAL ELECTION

HE TALKED ABOUT BRINGING THEM TO THE NEGOTIATION TABLE FOR PEACE.

NOW IN ORDER TO BRING THEM TO THE TABLE YOU HAVE TO THREATEN

SETTLEMENTS OR THEIR FUNDING.

HE DOES KNOW HOW TO DO

NEGOTIATIONS.

THERE IS ACTUALLY SOME CHANCE HE MIGHT GET THIS

RIGHT.

UNLIKE EVERY OTHER PRESIDENT, HE DOESN'T GIVE A

DAMN.

ALL OTHER PRESIDENTS WOULD BE LIKE I AM TOLD I CAN NEVER

SAY ANYTHING ABOUT ISRAEL.

TRUMP IS LIKE I CAN SAY ANYTHING I

WANT ABOUT ANYONE.

HE DID IT A LITTLE BIT IN THE CARRIER DEAL,

NOW THE DRUG COMPANIES, AND NOW THIS ISSUE.

HE IS A BULL IN A

CHINA SHOP.

WHEN YOU PROCEED FROM STRENGTHS YOU GET RESULTS.

MOST OF THE RESULTS HE IS GETTING OUR HORRIFIC.

BUT IN

THIS CASE IT MIGHT BE A RARE SITUATION WHERE IT MIGHT BE

POSITIVE.

>> AS YOU ARE MAKING YOUR ARGUMENT, THE ONE THING THAT

POPPED INTO MY HEAD WAS BENJAMIN

NETANYAHU DOESN'T CARE WHAT ANYONE HAS

TO SAY.

BUT THE ONE

BIG DIFFERENCE IS THE ISSUE OF

FUNDING.

>> AND NETANYAHU KNOWS THAT TRUMP WOULD'VE NEVER THREATENED.

HE KNOWS HE CAN GO ABOVE OBAMA'S HAD ANY DAY. AND HE DID.

NOW HE

TRIES TO GO OVER TRUMP'S HEAD DO YOU THINK REPUBLICANS WILL GIVE

HIM A STANDING OVATION?

OH NO.

>> LET'S HOLD.

THE STORY IS DEVELOPING.

>> I HEAR YOU.

THE STORY JUST

BROKE.

ALL I AM SAYING IS I AM

KIND OF GOOD AT THIS, I DID WANT TO SAY IT, YOU MADE ME SAY IT

ANA.

Iran rejects Trump administration's missile test warning - Duration: 2:24.

Iran has blasted the United States for its warning over a recent Iranian missile test,...

calling it baseless and repetitive.

The back and forth between Washington and Tehran is the latest sign of the strain in

relations since President Trump took office last month.

Park Jong-hong has this report.

Iran has lashed out at a warning from the United States.

In an interview with state news agency IRNA,...

Iran's foreign ministry spokesman said that, instead of thanking Tehran for its continued

fight against terrorism,... the U.S. is practically helping the terrorists by making claims that

are baseless, repetitive and provocative.

He was referring to remarks by U.S. National Security Advisor Michael Flynn who condemned

Iran's recent ballistic missile test.

Flynn called the launch the latest in a series of moves by Iran that includes backing Houthi

rebels in Yemen, who have attacked U.S. allies.

Tehran maintains that its missiles are solely for defense purposes and are not designed

to carry nuclear warheads.

"We execute our plan to produce defensive equipment to defend our national goals and

interests according to our schedule, and no will power can affect our plan and decision."

Iran confirmed this week that it had tested a ballistic missile.

But it rejected claims it had violated the terms of a nuclear deal with the U.S.

On Thursday, President Trump tweeted that the Islamic republic was now formally PUT

ON NOTICE for firing a ballistic missile.

He added Iran "should have been thankful for the terrible deal the U.S. made with them

" Trump was referring to the nuclear accord

between Tehran and world powers that took effect early last year, lifting international

sanctions in return for Iran curbing its atomic program.

Sources say the U.S. is expected to impose fresh sanctions on Iranian entities that could

be announced as early as Friday.
