Victory At Sea ep 22 The Fate Of Europe (1953)

Victory at Sea was a documentary TV series about naval warfare during World War II
THE FATE OF EUROPE Black Sea, south of France, surrender

Sevastopol was liberated, and the Allies finally crush Germany. We also witness the meeting of Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin on final plans for Germany's surrender and the forming of the United Nations. At the end, Hitler commits suicide, and Nazi flags are torn apart and German military uniforms and hats lie on the ground like discarded garbage. However, compelling footage of German cities in ruins make this one of the most triumphant as well as somewhat somber episodes of Victory at Sea.
