Paris Doctrine vs The Green Hell: The Mind That Won the Chaco War

Описание: In one of the harshest battlefields in modern history, where thirst killed faster than bullets, a single strategic mind changed the fate of a nation.

During the Chaco War (1932–1935), Bolivia entered the conflict with a larger population, superior equipment, and stronger economic resources. Paraguay seemed destined to lose.

But Paraguay had something Bolivia did not: a military genius trained in Paris.

This documentary explores how Marshal José Félix Estigarribia used elite European military doctrine learned at the École Supérieure de Guerre to transform warfare inside the brutal environment of the Chaco Boreal — known by soldiers as the Green Hell.

In this video you will discover:

• How European operational warfare theory was adapted to jungle desert combat
• Why water logistics became the decisive weapon of the war
• The clash between German attrition doctrine and Paraguayan maneuver warfare
• The battles that reshaped South American military history
• The legacy of one of the greatest operational commanders of the 20th century

This is not just history.
This is the story of how intelligence defeated brute force.

At the end of this documentary, we ask a question still relevant today:

👉 In modern warfare, can superior logistics and intellectual strategy still defeat overwhelming technological power?
