I had a period in 2015, I broke up with my wife, lost my job, started drinking a lot, it went on for several years, even started thinking about the bad (ending this life) I have always been doing sports in the past, sitting over a glass of vodka once again and watching KZbin, I saw a clip of Sabaton Primo Victoria, I listened to all their albums in the evening, I had not heard about this band before, I was so inspired by their tracks that I had a desire to change my life, quit drinking, go in for sports as before, thank you Sabaton, thanks to the lyrics in your songs, where people are fighting with their last strength for survival, I realized how insignificant my problems are compared to what people experienced in wars, I found the strength to change my life, now I run 10 km and Sabaton always plays in headphones, thank you, you changing people's lives without even knowing it

I wish you good luck on your way and hope that things are going well for you. ✌🏻🍀

My father served in the Army in the Pacific theater. He collected one of these parachuting onto Corrigedor. Like most WWII vets, he really didn't talk much about his experiences, my brother and I learned most of his actions from his service records jacket when we were going through things after his funeral.

[@michaelhorn175]

My grandpa was in Vietnam as a US marine

[@nottelling9472]

My grandpa was captured by the Germans at Faid Pass in Tunisia Valentine's Day 1943. He didn't talk about the war. I've learned a lot from the report that the officer in charge wrote about that day. Most of what I've learned has come from scouring forums. Bits and pieces from family members relaying stories from there loved ones. The bigger the picture it paints only adds to the respect I have for his generation.

This song had me crying for multiple days. It made me realize that countless men have suffered and died for me, and without them I likely wouldn't have existed. I've known that fact since I was a kid, but it never truly sank in when I heard this song. I was realizing how much I have been taking their sacrifices for granted.

All US veterans who have received the Purple Heart, that I’ve met, are some of the strongest, bravest, and proudest people I’ve ever met. They’re not happy their hurt, but they’d all do it again, and are extreme humble to be alive. Most memorable one to me was my late neighbor Joe. He was shot in Chosin. Always told stories of how “that damned hill in Korea” was hell. Then he’d end with, I’d do it all over again, it was worth it. I think we did good, there.

That is right down there in the deepest part of the Uncanny Valley. Same with most of the other 3d animated videos they've had coming out in the last year or so, it's cool that they're having work done for their songs, but it all looks so amateurish.

[@mastercoolguy2809]

It looks like they did this in a knock off version of Hero Forge

[@ZFire2020]

Plus, it doesn't make any sense why these guys are civil war soldiers. The song literally references rangers and M16s

[@Razdasoldier]

​@@ZFire2020it is to show the change of time. The purple heart has been with America since well before WW2. Infact Douglas was the one who renamed the purple heart to the purple heart. This shows the past and present coming together to honor the recipients regardless of when they paid their price.

​@@Razdasoldierit was first given out in 1917 though...

[@Der_Berndster]

Another masterpiece from sabaton

[@alextaplin7354]

Being honest, I don't think any of the new animations/renders are doing justice to the tone and meaning of the songs. Kind of just looks like the song is being played over something from a low-quality videogame and that just takes the edge off it. My favourites were always the ones with historical context or storyboard styles, the style throughout the Art of War was neat, so was Red Baron.

ikr, this shit ruins the whole song's seriousness

[@kikipopPK2024]

캬 음악 좋아요~~~❤❤

[@un_AUTHORIZE]

As a boy, I remember pestering my father to tell me about the various accouterments adorned on his dress uniform. A lot of things stuck out to me: a CIB (2nd Award), a Parachustist Badge, and two cords (the Infantry Blue Cord, and the Schützenschnur). As we went down his ribbons, he stopped at the Purple Heart. He then told me about how he was awarded this medal because he was wounded due to an enemy ambush in 2003 (the beginning of the Iraq War). Stepping away from his uniform, he pulled out a memory box from his closet and took out the actual Purple Heart Medal he had pinned on him. Looking at it, I remember I had seen the Purple Heart many times before, though I did not know it. Every time he would pick me up from school, drive me somewhere, and now following him in my own car to this very day, the license plate on the back of his car details the Purple Heart along with the words "COMBAT WOUNDED VETERAN" displayed at the bottom. Since then, he has completed his service and is retired now. As of today, he is alive and well living a well-deserved, peaceful life. He was back then and still is the bravest, most headstrong man I've ever known.

I got family who are/were Army, Navy, or Marines, this song moves. Luckily, none are Purple Heart recipients as far as my father & grandfather (Mom's side) goes. The Marine of the family is still active. Over 500,000 were made for the proposed landings on Mainland Japan. Sometime in the last few years, we used the last of those 500,000, and during that whole span of nearly 80 years, none were made since the last batch of the 500,000.

[@andrespolo2722]

You listen the music, the rest is just an add

[@Linkman247]

The purple heart was created by Gen. George Washington in 1782 to recognize meritorious service in combat. Though it was called the badge of military merit and took the form of a heart of purple cloth. It fell into dissue and was revived in 1932. The medal was changed as a recognition of combat injuries and deaths. The first award of the purple heart was Feb. 22, 1932. So you typically wouldnt be likely to see it on a civil war soldier...not in its modern incarnation anyway which is for a person wounded or killed on or after April 5, 1917. So while the imagery here isnt what one might call historical maybe it could be seen as paying tribute to the men who might have deserved such recognition but never received it? Thats my thinking anyway.
