It took the US marines about 6 months to end WWI. Maybe a bit longer. They were savages.

Hey, my granddad was in the F.E.B and, while he never spoke about it, 2 of my uncles did the R.O.T.C equivalent. Never did anything but at 16 and a half I was accepted into college through ENEM (like an SAT to join free college against the whole country type of thing). I join Science and Tech and was made to pledge to the flag at an army base. TL;DR: Ended up getting disowned by my parents and emancipated, went through NPOR (ROTC dunno what you call it but junior officers of the reserve), got one of the 3 spots and joined active, became an MP in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte.... Lot of combat experience and holy shit I wish I was half a man my granddad was. To this day, I miss playing the guitar with him while I'm feeling ashamed from crying in front of his because I had to drop a dirtbag. I can't cry anymore about them to anyone because it brings the mood down. All my family is long gone and they've forsaken me b4 it. Loved him to bits and he could make his shitty guitar cry like no other. Major Oliveira; Your memory lives. Thanks for everything. I get you know.

God bless you for your service..HOG forever 🙏.

Yes we know about it & commemorate the lives lost every year on 11th November. A Service is held at the Cenotaph (War Memorial) at 11am; every city, town & village has one. We lay poppy wreaths. The battlefield of the Somme is covered with red poppies. After John McRae wrote a poem called In Flanders Fields, where he described the poppies, they became synonymous with remembering our fallen servicemen. Everyone wears a poppy during the month of November. “ Age shall not weary them nor, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning. We will remember them.” Words from a very well known poem by Laurence Binyon that are often quoted during these Remembrance Services. There’s not a family in the UK who didn’t lose a relative, or have had relatives that served in both WW1 & WW2. Lest We Forget!

To wyglądało tak że wojska Stalina były pod Warszawą... A Polacy nie chcieli być wyzwoleni przez komunistów... Więc było Powstanie... Ale Stalin wtedy wydał rozkaz że ruscy żołnierze maja czekać aż Niemcy zabija wszystkich powstańców i Zniszcza miasto... Więc przez te 63 dni ruskie wojska czekały aż Niemcy wybija Polaków... W Warszawie były dwie organizacje partyzanckie... AL czyli komunistyczna Armia Ludowa która uciekła do lasu. I AK czyli armia krajowa o prawicowych poglądach, i AK walczyło a później było torturowane i zabijane przez komunistów... Wyrywali im paznokcie na torturach i katowali miesiącami tak że Żołnierze AK mówili że niemieckie obozy koncentracyjne przy stalinowskich katowniach to było nic... I wojna to zło... Polscy żołnierze też musieli zabijać polskie rodziny które kolaborowaly z Niemcami i które wydawały Żydów na śmierć... Bo taki był wyrok dowodzenia... Dla Polaków to był ciężki czas...

During the sacking of Rome in 1527 189 Swiss Guard mercenaries and 5,000 militiamen stood their ground to defend Pope Clement VII from 20,000 plus forces made up of German mercenaries, Spanish soldiers & Italian mercenaries. All 189 Swiss Guard were killed. However since that day the Swiss Guard have been the official bodyguards for whoever holds the office of Pope because of how valiantly those 189 honored their word & contract

May 5th 1945 at Castle Itter in Austria a group of 36 individuals made up of German Wehrmacht soldiers & 1 defector from the Waffen SS (who was the second highest ranked soldier in the cabal), American units both infantry & armored, Austrian resistance, & a few of the VIP French prisoners of war held out against 150-200 Waffen SS troops. The Waffen SS Panzergrenadiers destroyed the one tank called "Besotten Jenny" that had been able to get mobilized for part of the defense. Only 1 was killed, Major Josef "Sepp" Gangl who was the commanding officer of the makeshift unit, while 4 were wounded. Unknown killed on the Waffen SS side but 100 were taken prisoner after their commander Oberfürher (Senior Leader) Georg Bochmann was forced to surrender. It is one of only two times that Allied soldiers & Wehrmacht soldiers fought side by side while also being dubbed "the strangest battle of World War 2"

Panowie! Uczcie się historii! Państwo bez pamięci o bohaterach wcześnie czybpóźniej upada.

Never kearn history from a music video.. read books a lot and make your searching..

bro your a god reaktor hope you will visit my country someday

The Polish hussars were one of the best cavalry in the history of the world. In 1683, the Polish hussars saved Europe from the threat of the Ottoman Empire by going to the aid and saving besieged Vienna. Austria thanked us for this 100 years later. Austria expressed its gratitude in such a way that together with Prussia and Russia they dismantled the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and for 123 years Poland ceased to exist. Today, Europe is once again threatened by the invasion of Muslim immigrants and there are no longer any hussars to defend it. **** Huzarzy polscy byli jedną z najlepszych kawalerii w historii świata. W 1683 roku huzarzy polscy uratowali Europę przed zagrożeniem ze strony Imperium Osmańskiego idąc na odsiecz i ratując oblężony Wiedeń. Austria podziękowała nam za to 100 lat później,. Austria wyraziła swoją wdzięczność w ten sposób, że wspólnie z Prusami i Rosją rozebrali Rzeczpospolitą i na 123 lata Polska przestała istnieć. Dzisiaj ponownie Europa zagrożona jest przez najazd muzułmańskich imigrantów i nie ma już huzarów, którzy ją obronią.

this is a song about death in the shape of a handsome italian.

Never germann only true finnish grit and determination ! welcome to finland !

When I seen that some people that live here hate the flag and label our flag like it's a form of anything other than freedom....I damn near gave up hope. Imagine a Canadian born rapper being more patriotic of our country than 99 percent of rappers. Tom is awesome. This country is Awesome. I fly so many American flags I lost count. It is definitely something special when you have one in a triangle box too!

Funny thing about the eye-patch, he was shipped back to London to be treated, he was ordered to get a glass eye because the brass thought it would look bad with a one-eyed soldier on the lines so he went and got the eye, put it in and in the ride to the ships it annoyed him so much he pulled it back out and threw it out, then told the driver to stop at a costume shop where he got an eye-patch instead. Later when he was told he could quit the military, all he had to do was walk down the steps and out the building he instead flung himself down the stairs breaking his back and hip in the process. Oh yeah after the war he was an attache to china, and he didn't mince words with Mao Zedong, he told him to his face "I don't like you" and interrupted him at a propaganda dinner to tell him what he thought about his leadership. The guy also while being knighted interrupted the king of England to correct him when he claimed that De Wiart was an English warrior, he was in fact Belgian.

The only thing I really know about Bosnia was the horror stories alot of British troops came home with and the absolute frustration they had with the UNs ROE even when fired at im pretty sure they couldn't fire back in top of the brutal atrocities they had to witness because they weren't allowed to get involved.

This track with Tarja as the lead singer is better IMO - it's her operatic vocals with the heavy sound that really works. It was written for her as she was the singer back then: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qImbppaebNmgY8k

I to jest przykład że historię piszą zwycięzcy. Pomyślnie że gdyby hitler wygrał druga wojnę to o nim i dzielnej armi niemieckiej teraz byśmy słuchali piosenek

My Great-Grandfather fought in WW1 at The Somme and Passchendaele, and the only thing he ever said to me about it was: "I never thought I'd see so many young boys lives wasted, why did it have to be them?"

Hi! Everything is so mixed up in this video. Footage from a Russian feature film about the war, from games, in my opinion from another film. My husband is from the Kursk region, where there were tank battles. He told me as a child, when he went fishing with his father, he found bunches of casings from German cartridges. After the war, nothing grew there for many years, the land was all red. There is a Russian singer who does covers of Sabaton songs. Including this one. This song is my favorite. When Sabaton came to Russia, they invited him and performed the song "Attack of the Dead" together. His alias is RADIO TAPOK. Sabaton fans didn't even suspect what RADIO TAPOK would do to them, but when he came on stage there was such a squeal. In short, we had a great time. RADIO TAPOK also writes military historical songs himself. Sabaton did a cover of his song "The Battle for Moscow"

over romaticised is hard to fuck with one cenimeter hole in your body xD

There it is. Probably the most historic soccer game ever recorded. December 24th in 1914. It lasted two days,and the soldiers played soccer,had Christmas trees along the trenches,shared their rations,gave small gifts. When it was over many soldiers deserted rather than go on killing. Some were transfered out,and many weere shot right there for refusing orders to reopen the battle. This video too years to make and it was meant to tear your heart up. God rest those men. ***Also,people forget that French soldiers were there too. As if was only the English and German soldiers. There's a cross still set up there to commemorate the event. The simple wooden cross that marks the site of the famous Christmas Truce symbolizes the Christian nature of what happened here. By the time of Christmas Eve, 1914, World War I had already claimed thousands of lives since its beginning 5 months earlier. The war was supposed to be over by Christmas.

The freedom I have is because of Audie, and you. And for that I cannot insult or ignore any veteran. All of them deserve respect and I will willingly give it up and never hold back. He went to hell and back to fight for his own country and loved ones back home. The reward they got was freedom and peace, but he only got PTSD as his reward. No one wishes that even to those they fight against. It’s like the mind is engulfed in fire and it never dies down. A continuous burning fire. I may never understand how it is, but I understand that what I have as a freedom was paid for already. Every veteran then and now gets my respect. I may never do what you all did, but I know that a price was paid and I’m grateful that you had the steel balls to look hell in the eyes and pay the price. For every soldier there is a grave But to their souls there is peace They will not live with us anymore But they will be remembered and honored For acts of valor must not be forgotten But remembered as a hefty price paid for our freedom And respected each soldier will be For they are beyond the greatest of our generations

Leave it to the Germans to give your unit a sick name you wear like a badge of honor for eternity. Teufels Hunde - Devil dogs Nachthexen - Night Witches

Nice reaction.😅

This sounds like the Vietcong. That's what I'm getting from this.

Great reaction.

I really enjoyed ur reaction 2 this song, I'm glad I just happened 2 find u. Ur right, everything that Tom said is 100% true. I've always had mad respect 4 all of our soldiers, every yr I thank them 4 their service whether active, vets or those who r no longer with us. My father served in the army 4 about 20 yrs, he did 2 tours in Vietnam & almost died a couple times but of course when he came home, they were treated like shit, it's just not right.

When the paladin gets bardic inspiration.

Tom MacDonald is a maga nazi!

J. R. R. Tolkien was at the somme and he wrote that at the end of the first day all of his friends except for maybe one of them were killed.

OMG I love that you reacted to this video! This song plus Vikings is just pure perfection!!!!!!

There is no heroes in wars, only survives. Medals is the ultimate lie for you to die in an even more stupid way to die in a war.

TOM LOVE That MAN…

All respect for all veterans........you make me proud

♥️🤟

dude, it's incredible in each video about Brasil a brazilian appears to comment hahaha

Nice reaction. I wished you had seen the animated story video. But still great.
