The "said goodbye to the cross he deserved" part is not only about the kill mark that would be painted on his plane. The germans had a point system to determine when to award the iron cross to figther pilots. At the time of the incident the cutoff was at 50 points, with a downed fighter being worth 1 point and a bomber 3 points. Stigler was exactly 3 points away from getting it when he spared that bomber. He eventually got the medal later in the war, you can read about it on the "higher call" book by Adam Makos.

He served his country and followed command. Like any soldier of war, I'm sure Stigler, morally, didn't have intentions to get the cross although on record as a German pilot he did receive it. Thus being said, Franz Stigler is surely an honorable soldier.

There's also a third layer to it; "kill who-ever the Führer wants you to kill and you'll get medals, refuse to do so and there'll be a target on your back because now you're the enemy too." (I doubt that Zigler would've actually considered anything in that way as a factor, I just recall reading something about how this was probably an intended layer of the song's lyrics.)

My father continued hating Germans because of my grandfather being put to work on an ammunition transport to the eastern front. I wantd to know more about WW II as I grew older and read many accounts of German soldiers helping people in occupied territory on farms or in stores or just in daily life. In 1993 I met Charles brown and I asked him what event in WW II stuck with him the most, and he told me this story. Also, reading A Higher Call, by Adam Makos, really opened my eyes to the fact that most Germans, even militairy personell, had no idea of what kind of cruel acts were preformed in their country's name. This is why I sometimes think to myself, is there a good side and bad side in a war.

I remember my grandpa telling me about the war. He was a farmer in southern Germany. When he had to go to war he worked as a radio operator and mechanic in a Flakpanzer IV. One day they found a Soviet plane they shot down. In the purse of the dead pilot they found a picture of the pilot and his family. He said that this day was even worse than the one he lost his arm. I just feel incredibly sorry for all parties involved in any war because some idiots in their government.

Jus to add a bit, my wife's parent's were German who immigrated to the states after the war. So I got to hear the stories from the "other end" of the conflict what it was like to be on the receiving end of American bombs by day and British bombs by night. My wife took a collage history class and one of the other students grandfathers was a bomber pilot the other perspective was quite eye opening to the entire class.

For clarification: the line "risked his life two times that day" refers to Stigler having already been on two sorties already before spotting Ye Olde Pub from his airfield. (If you don't know what a sortie is, it is anytime a plane takes off, goes and does it's mission, and returns to base to put very simply.) That's also why he was "rearm and refuel"ing as he had engaged Allied planes prior to this. I highly, highly, recommend (to anyone interested) to find and read "A Higher Call: An Incredible True Story of Combat and Chivalry in the War-Torn Skies of World War II" by Adam Makos. Makos does an amazing job of recounting, not only this moment in history, but also the two men that shared it; Brown and Stigler.

That guy seeked refugee at a Greek monastery were he was accepted and hided there, with the help of the monks, till the end of the war. After that, he returned to Germany and for the rest of his life he kept visiting that monastery. War is the worst thing that would happen, but then again these war stories inspire Sabaton, so...

If I recall from reading correctly the "cross he deserved" was a Knights Cross, which if I recall correctly he only needed one more bomber kill or something of the such to be awarded it. As far as his reasoning for not shooting down the B-17, when Stigler was in North Africa his commander threatened to kill any pilot who shot a man in a parachute as it was dishonorable, and he viewed the B-17 and crew as being as helpless as being in a parachute.

It was approx. 1942 he was trained for 2 weeks and then transported to the eastern front where he was eventually captured and put in a gulag in gorki. He survived and returned home totally hungry and his brother who drove him home said to him he didn't think he would survive. And then he married and got four children including my father, and died shortly after i was born.

B17's were true monsters, they could fly without tail, there are stories of one landing with a half wing, other without cockpit, they were beasts

They had their bad points - horribly unstable if the aircraft wasn't under control by the pilot and didn't age that well over flight hours. Although one was so bashed about and shot up that in order to get it to fly in a straight line it needed 6 degrees of trim tab permanently because otherwise it'd just spend the time flying in circles - the airframe was so bent and warped.

The cross i think was the medal the cross i forgot it but he was gonna get for shooting down three bombers but the ye old pub was gonna be his third but he saw no honor or glory in shooting him down and he protected him from AA by flying close to the pub because the AA crew would be afraid to shoot at him and the German pilot who lived in Germany was called a cord and he then lived in Canada he was called a Nazi by his neighbors

It’s interesting how I am on the complete opposite side of the story you told in the beginning of the video. On the 16th of March, so exactly today, 76 years ago, the city I live in was blown up by these forces. It would have been a war crime if they hadn’t mistook Würzburg for a different city as it was one where the wounded were being treated
