German Newsweek No. 628- 16 September 1942 [Full HD]
The German Newsweek (Die Deutsche Wochenschau) was the unified newsreel of Germany from 1940-1945. The concept of a weekly newsreel was much older, dating back to WWI, and in the 1930s, there were several different weekly newsreels in Germany.
With the outbreak of WWII, these were unified and from June 1940 shown under the title of “The German Newsweek“.
It was one of the most important aspects of German propaganda. Each week, over 2000 copies were sent to theaters and movie houses throughout Germany and shown to the general public, as private TV ownership was extremly rare during WWII.
Over 700 episodes were produced, and many of the historical WWII footage we nowadays have comes from the Wochenschau.
This is issue No. 628 from September 16th, 1942.
It shows footage of a German U-Boat operating in the Gulf and River of St. Lawrence in Canada,German units fighting on the Volkhov front, including footage of the making of Volkhov staffs, German and Romanian units crossing the Strait of Kerch and advancing towards Novorossiysk, and lenghty scenes of German planes attacking Soviet positions and planes.
Finally, the Newsweek shows German units advancing towards and shelling Soviet positions around Stalingrad, and again German planes attacking Soviet positions around and in Stalingrad.
