Anyone know whats up with the AK in the background? At first I thought it was an airsoft gun or something because the receiver looks wrong, but everything else looks legit... the wood even has scratches from the latch that releases the gas tube. I'm a collector, and i almost never get stumped on AK's and I'm wicked curious now.

That is one thing that they share with two of their neuighbours. Czech Republic and Slovakia. When we were still one country, at first we got handed over by Allies when Hitler demanded Czechoslovakia. Czechia got turned into a Protectorate Bohemia and Moravia (completely forgetting that small bit of Silesia that Maria Theresia didn't lose to Poland) and Slovakia to a separate state. Then there was the demarcation line at Pilsen. At the end of the ww2, there was a semi-successfull uprising in Prague. Many hoped Americans would come and help, since they were at Pilsen already. That is roughly 1 hour by car from Prague, so maybe 2-3 max 4 hours for military? Well, it doesn't matter they never came, because they couldn't. Americans weren't allowed to cross the demarcation line and we got handed over to Stalin instead. So from mud to puddle (Czech saying, it means you go from one bad thing to another).

My grandgrandfather was polish army captain in 1939, he just (4 months before ) returned from fighting 3 years in spanish civil war against communists ( also interesting is that in ww1 he was hero of German Empire). He was even polish spy in german army during wwII, because he know german so well ( before wwI he studied medicine in Vienna, was in officer school in Berlin, and was whole wwI in german army). Germans in wwII even offered him promotion to mayor ( he ended wwI as captain) and German citizenship. Of course he refused, because Nazi germany was not the same as German Empire...

Just so you know, "mayor" in English refers to the leader of a city. I know what you meant, but English takes the spelling direct from the German, "major". Same root, as high ranking officers were originally all lesser lords back when Europe was still feudal

I came here for the Indy ramble just as much as the history and the music.

[@DHuys]

thanks and respect to everyone who participates in sabaton hystory. I am not a super fan of their music (for me it can be louder, faster and a lot harder) But I am a fan of the lyrics and backgrounds. kudos to you guys!

In campaign of 1939 there were many Polish thermopiles and last man stands including bayonet charges.

A very interesting episode, the theme of the battle for the Wizna is very amazing and also photos from the shooting of the video clip Seven Pillars of wisdom, thank you Sabaton History, it's a great episode🤘🤘

[@Natala781]

That was a very educational episode (like all of them really). We never really got into details during the history classes. Indy's attempt at polish wasn't bad either. It was understandable but a little all over the place pronunciation wise. Still kind of impressive. Ah, 40:1, that bring memories. The song to which I was introduced to via my history textbook. In the newer versions we don't always have the translated lyrics but Sabaton and the song is always mentioned in polish history textbooks as a trivia in the invasion of poland chapter.

The Germans didn't win, the Poles ran out of ammo.

Indy I love the Bavarian patch on your left sleeve (wish I had one)

[@mightyminotaur5056]

Whenever I play XCOM, every single Polish soldier I've had has been an absolute monster. Now I understand why.

[@catherinegrant3114]

I love their stories so much! Great episode!

[@izusbaran4]

Tkank you so much!!! It's Poland song!!! 🔥🔥🤘🤘🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱

[@ghostfox3560]

25 minutes of story time? Sounds like a great time to me.

[@kampfret]

to be honest tho... i didn't know about sabaton before ghost division episode. After i watched more and more episode my thought was THIS BAND IS COOOL!!! and now i listen it everyday while working at home.. true story :D my favorite song are angels calling and resist and bite

[@JK-cl3sj]

Have you tried: Gallipoli, Carolus Rex, Swedish pagans, Poltava - swedish version and of course Uprising?

[@Cssisabeautifulthang]

How about Camouflage

[@kampfret]

@@JK-cl3sj Gallipoli loved it also.. the last stand and shiroyama too... I listen it on spotify from their the best of Sabaton playlist tho.. so, it's not all of their albums and not all song i remember... but for a guy who love war history i enjoy it so much :)

[@kampfret]

@@Cssisabeautifulthang haven't listen to that before.. I'll check it out.. thanks man

totally digging the bavarian coat-of-arms patch on indy's jacket. it's such a beautiful flag

[@Artur_M.]

It's certainly a great surprise, awesome episode! BTW the 'c' in Kock is pronounced like 'ts' (or German z). Indy actually got it right but in another video - episode 006 on the main WW2 channel 'Poland Falls and China Rises'.

[@krzysztof3925]

I wish I could give this video more than one like.

[@briangarvey6895]

25 minutes is too short! Go for it, Par!

Indy: "Kock" Me to myself: "if i laugh i will never stop regreting it"

[@Artur_M.]

Maybe knowing that it's actually pronounced more like "Kotsk" will help?

[@martincajthaml1127]

@@Artur_M. it helps a lot, now i can just blame the english language
