I do not mourn for those lost, but I thank God Men like these existed. I feel sorry for those who have forgotten.

great reaction, more Sabaton please. Sabaton is a Swedish band with a loooong list of history based music. Sabaton also has an award winning history channel that gives background to over 120 if their songs (not music award, academic, aimed at education of the public) . Sabaton videos are often have dedications and/or messages at the end, perhaps not always but... watching to the very end is frequently well worth it. Animated STORY videos (short Animated history lessons with music videos in them) No bullets fly, enemy showing mercy to injured aircrew in a nearly wrecked aircraft barely still flying, even escorting them to safety. Night witches, Young (17-28) female bomber pilots in ww2 fighting the Nazi despite the discrimination they faced and being given obsolete equipment, aircraft ... Lady of the dark, female fighting alongside men during ww1 and being highly respected and even more decorated. Red baron, the famous fighter pilot of ww1 first soldier, unlikely French hero in ww1. Epic ORIGINAL videos. Bismark, about the sinking of the ship Christmas truce, about the spontaneous truce in some parts of the western front during Christmas 1914 40:1, about polish soldiers, badly outnumbered (just under 750 in all) facing 42 000 germans, they where BADLY outgunned desperately defending against the German invasion 1939 (with odds actually close to 55:1 they held for 3 DAYS when ammunition and supplies ran out. Uprising, the Warsaw Uprising against the nazi germans during 1944. To hell and back, they tell the story of Audie Murphy (highly decorated) and his struggle AFTER the war, so about PTSD and drug addiction that returning soldiers can face. Fields of verdun, the 300+ day long battle fought there. Price of a mile, about the battle of Passchendaele Screaming Eagles, about the battle of the bulge Live performances 40:1 from poland Uprising from poland En livstid I krig live from Göteborg Sweden (in Swedish but there are subtitles) , very heavy again, about thoughts of a young man going to war. Two covers that are good Defence of Moscow, self explained you just saw 1916 about the devastating battle of the somme in ww1, casualties topped 1 milion if you count both sides, all for 6 miles of ground, these are just some, there are plenty more.

Here are a few things to point out: This is a cover of a Motörhead song. The bus at the start is a nod to the live album No Sleep til Hammersmith by Motörhead, you can see a Motörhead flag at 3:28. The two guys standing in the door opening at 4:50 are Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell, the drummer and the guitarist of Motörhead. The picture at 4:55 is of Lemmy Kilmister who was the singer and bassist of Motörhead, the guy holding it is Eddie Rocha who was Motörheads tour manager and the current one for Sabaton.

yeah, Sabaton really can play havoc with your emotions, try the animated STORYvideoof "No bullets fly" for a more uplifting story, a man saving lives.

There were actually two battles in ww1 these numbers give a relatively accurate picture of. The somme and pachendale. If you use the total dead and the land gained we are talking 7.5inches per man if you use all wounded it drops to just over 2inches. 2.5mm is roughly an inch.
