Ok sorry. :roll:
loss stats, crete:
Germans losses of 6,200 men: 3,714 dead and 2,494 wounded.
The Allies lost 3,500 soldiers: 1,751 dead, with an equal number wounded, and an enormous number captured (12,254 Commonwealth and 5,255 Greek). There were also 1,828 dead and 183 wounded among the Navy. A total sum of 3,579 dead and 1,900 wounded.
One Cretan source puts the number of Cretans killed by German action at 6,593.
And it was just costly enough to the Germans that Hitler vowed never to use paratroops in a large-scale operation ever again.
yeah, while the loss ratios are heavily favoring the germans, its very hard to replace special forces with 4-6 years of training…
Exactly
its interesting how the cretans resisted and defended/attacked the german paras at the drop zones, from what i’ve heard, kreta is very,very gun-heavy, like certain parts of the mid-west. every house has a gun…
like a japanese general said," if we invade america there will be a gun behind every blade of grass"
Yup :lol:
Crete, the Germans suffered severely there :oops:
