I agree that this video is very important to archive and make available to view. I don't disagree with Youtube's decision on age restriction. I watched the video, and there are several scenes showing dead bodies. I think making that available, but age restricted, is a fair compromise.

YouTube age restricted videos are pretty much made impossible to view without revealing to YouTube your identity (they ask for a credit card transaction or a copy of your id) if you have a European account.

"The minimum age for enlisting in the UK armed forces is 16"

"You can start your application when you're 15 years and 7 months"

If you can go to war, you should be able to watch war videos on YouTube.

I always wondered how come in the US you cannot watch porn before 18, or drink before 21, but you can go to war at 16.

I am not sure if this is still correct, but you could play in a porn movie but not be allowed to watch it either.

Likely not, in 2021. I believe in most states in the US, it's considered CSAM if the subject is under 18 and the material is sexual in nature.
