On youtube in 4 parts:
YouTube - Schlaflos im Krieg 1/4
The above mentioned documentary in full lenght. (on Arte the vid is gone)

Rather than having the tankers sealed into their tanks in HoS they should just be given some meth so they can sprint back to spawn in a few seconds if they have to bail.
Always interesting, weird, and sometimes funny to see what drugs people use in war. Like those Afghanis who casually smoke some herb while under fire.

You could make a mod where the SL has the ability to distribute Pervitin to his soldiers when deemed necessary.
Depending on the level of realism though i guess we would have to make ridiculously long lasting battles in order to simulate it properly.
If you could even keep the stats regarding the times and frequency of usage you could even simulate side effects and loss of medical effects.
Anyways crazy stuff. Same counts for sports as one of the previous posters also mentioned, think about cycling...

That would actually be really interesting... surely one of the RO team has tried meth once in their life and could provide an accurate representation of the experience (well as much as you can by looking at a screen with sounds
)Plus it'll get them on the news like GTA did with hot coffee and they'll get a ton of free publicity.
Ya it's really weird. I know I sure couldn't fight very effectively while blazed... I'd probably just freak out, then giggle at the absurdity of life and the pointlessness of war or something else "deep", and fall asleep.

Oh look. The thousandth thread derailed by IS2 idiocy.

You're right, we should keep all venerations of the IS2 to the IS2 thread.
Continue the meth-soldier topic!
Source? Not that I don't believe you, it's just that my grandfather was a navigator in a B-17 and flew some absurdly long mission before he was granted leave after 51 missions (the last was a two-parter, hence its length). It would kinda make me laugh... picturing him on speed
My great uncle also parachuted into Normandy with the 101st on d-day.

You never know, unless I'm horribly mistaken the very term assassin comes from fighters who used hashish before battle.
Edit: Wikipedia knows: "...the "Old Man of the Mountain" (Sabbah) would drug his young followers with hashish, lead them to a "paradise", and then claim that only he had the means to allow for their return. Perceiving that Sabbah was either a prophet or some kind of magic man, his disciples, believing that only he could return them to "paradise", were fully committed to his cause and willing to carry out his every request.[3] With his new weapons, Sabbah began to order multiple assassinations, ranging from politicians to great generals."
At least according to Marco Polo.
Back on topic, I wonder if they still use stuff this potent in the military today? I know they give pilots amphetamines.

Can do, but what would be the best way in your opinion? I can use caption tube but then the original owner would have to update his vid therefore(wich he would probably have to whatever i will do).
PS: Would be nice to have some help though to divide up the work. It would also speed up the process.

Ya I was just thinking using the closed caption thingie. But ya I know it's a ton of work, was just saying... if anyone's bored
It's not like the documentary is the poster's property anyways, so I don't see why he needs to be involved at all.

Speed is a different drug with very different effects accurately described in that documentary:
no hunger
no felt need for sleep
increased readiness to assume risks
euphoria
and in theory you can also focus better on tasks
You can see how these traits can come in handy for a soldier.

Well, most allied forces used Benzedrine.

Pillen hier!Every time I see this thread pop up, I somehow imagine a German exclaiming "Grabbin' peelz!".
the documentary mentions it at the end. they explain that pervetin was circulating through the black market until the 50's. all the people coming home with a pervitin or morphium addiction needed their fix and there was a huge stockpile of that stuff left.
