I can never get through this one dry eyed. Incredible impact and emotion.
Me too man... Me too... It's simply too beautiful
Yes, crying at the end of this song every time. Almost equal emotional listening to the Price of a mile.
Night witches Yarnhub animated story is as emotional. Also To hell and back.
@@eduardklima5698 from the depths of hell in silence
@@tonk4184 cast their spell, explosive violence. :D
The way I understand it Stiegler had an instructor during his training that told him and the other pilots to be that if he ever heard that any of them had shot an enemy pilot that had bailed out and was descending in a parachute (one of the most heinous things you could do because it could lead to similar behavior from the other side - the morality of it, of course, being a factor too) he would shoot them himself with his sidearm.
Stiegler said when interviewed later that he viewed Ye Olde Pub and it's crew as harmless much like airmen in parachutes and so he could not bring himself to shoot them down. In addition to his personal history with his brother that was shot down as is mentioned in the video influenced his decision to show them mercy.
It was his squadron commander when he first arrived in Africa. If you haven’t read the book (A Higher Call) I can’t recommend it enough.
And Stigler didn't really have an instructor. He WAS the instructor. He was a professional pilot before WW2, and initially served as an instructor. He famously taught Gerhard Barkhorn, the second most successful ace of all time. And he almost failed him too.
He said if he ever saw them firing at an unarmed person in a parachute he would shot them down himself, as I take it not with a firearm but in a plane.
@@solthegamer3769 It is kind of funny that Manfred von Richtofen also had problems with learning to flight and ended up being the greatest ace of the WWI even getting a totally honorable funeral from his own enemy out of pure admiration and respect to their foe.
Sabaton is simply a group of modern day bards.
You are a goddamn genius
Modern skalds, keeping the greatest tales of heroism and courage alive through song.
I agree but I think that nickname belongs to Blind Guardian lmao
Metal bards 🙂
At the time of this incident Franz Stiggler already had 27 victory tallies, only 3 points left for him achieve the highest award of Nazi Germany, the Knight’s Cross of the Iron Cross, if he choose to shot down Ye Old Pub he would be got it because a bomber aircraft worth 3 points...
Some more informations about Stigler: His officer Rödel said to him in Africa, 1942, if "I would ever hear that you shoot down an parachute I will shoot you.". Franz has 27 aerial victories when he met Ye old Pub, one more bomber and he would have passed the "magic 30" for the Knights Cross, after the incident he changed his view at the war. He kept fighting against bombers (he said it was his duty to stop bombers destroying Germany), gifted most of his aerial victories to other pilots because he knew they would die soon and took part of the legendary JG-44, led by the more legendary Galland where he lost his friends one by one, flew with the Me-262 and became an bigger ace. He surrendered to the Americans in 1945.
In the war he lost his dad, his brother, many of his friends and saw young pilots dying, he also saw the ace Steinhoff being burnt alive.
Franz was also the man who teached the ace Barkhorn.
Thank you, thoughtful remarks
I always choke up when I listen to this song. I love your reaction
School history: Tells one side only
Sabaton History: Tells every side
I fucking love Capital M music. I find it everywhere, classical, metal, et al. And it grips me every time.
The events of history are the stories of ordinary humans caught in extraordinary circumstances that cause them to react in stunning ways. Sabaton taps that human experience no matter the circumstances, war is conflict and each person reacts to it and those that survive it respond to it differently. Lost to history, Sabaton takes those dusty history books and makes you experience the valor, courage, fear and brutality that those events brought out. Opera is a great example as each of their song touches those that hear it, some more than others. As a vet who fought in Viet Nam they stir my soul and touch on many of those emotions that we went through and remind me of the many friends and foes whose lives were cut short by that conflict. Here compassion for a crew that literally was in a parachute desperate to try and make it to safety, there is no honor in getting a medal for killing hapless foes. The videos show the ripple effect all our actions in life have, that one act meant how many families are around today because of the mercy he showed. Franz got something much better than a medal he got a friend and a Sabaton song, one could not ask for anything more!!!
By far, my favorite Sabaton song, and the one I can most relate to.
I live near Bremen (the place they bombed) and Oldenburg (where they almost crashed),
and one of my Opas (Grandpa) was a AA-gunner at the Atlantikwall, in the Netherlands.
I wonder if he saw a BF-109 escorting a B-17?
Great reaction.
Brothers, heroes, foes! Charlie so engaged in the song! Thank you for this emotional reaction.
Get the book A Higher Call. Which is what this song was inspired by.
Stigler was 1 kill away from the Iron Cross. Noticing that he wasn't being fired on as he approached the tail gunner. He choose not to take the easy kill and spare Brown and his crew.
He didn't fire on the Pub because of what his commander and mentor told him. "If i ever find out that you shot a man in a parachute, I will personally shoot you down myself." Franz Stigler saw the Pub, noticed it wasn't firing on him, saw how badly damaged it was, and thought of the Pub as a parachute and just couldn't pull the trigger.
It was the knights cross, not the iron cross.
The B-17 was a very rugged air frame and could take punishment beyond imagination, but even still so many of them were lost during the war. There is a memorial for the lost crews at RAF Duxford called "Counting the cost". Nine foot tall plexiglass panels representing each month of the war with some panels covered entirely with the silhouettes of B-17's and B-24's that never came home.
It's humbling.
Those B-17s were some very tough planes, known for being able to take lots of hits and keep going.
That's one of the reasons I love Sabaton. Thank you again for your wonderful words!
The song was made because of this story. But the animations were added at a later date because a different TH-camr told the story with these animations, so they collaborated on it to make this.
react to sabaton - night witches animated story video (seek for full version, not only music video). It's also impressive
I always thought of that as a double meaning “the cross he deserved” part. Like the German getting his medal but also the other pilot getting his cross on his grave.
I love the story behind this song. ❤ Capital M Music indeed.
Amazing story from a truely remarkable group, good job ❤️🤘🇦🇺
You should listen to the lyrics! Saved by his mercy and escorted out of harms way, a short salute and then departed!
The cross he deserved refers to that he only had to shoot down one more airplane to get the honorable German Iron Cross. (Heritage from the Prussian German knights Order)
Knight's Cross*
Didn't know this song until stream... So thankful ❤️/Sprallos
Pick up the book A Higher Call. It tells the story, and how Stigler came to that point where he could not shoot.
you got the line "said goodbye to the cross he deserved" wrong. Franz would have gained a "knight´s cross" for shooting down ye old pub. but he decided not to kill harmless people for a piece of metal... ;-)
One of the biggest mistakes people can make about war from history is assuming good and evil was as plain to see as black and white. You are not defined by current politics nor your country's leadership. In the Civil War, there were Southern Unionists like Newton Knight who fought to free slaves, despite being considered Southern; and there were people up North known as the Copperheads who supported slavery, despite being Northern. And just like this Luftwaffe pilot demonstrated, many in the German armed forces did not support what Hitler was doing, and refused to be the fanatical radicals he demanded them to be. You decide whether or not you make the honorable or ruthless choice.
Sabaton's music is highly emotional and several songs bring up deep emotions in me. This and their version of 1916 by Motorhead genuinely bring tears to my eyes.
I go to a lot of opera too and in many venues - mostly because I have the privilege of living in Germany.
One of the events that brought me to tears in the opera house was a staging of Verdi's Requiem at English National Opera in London.
The ending had a warning that they would turn out the safety lights at the end.
It was a superb experience but the end had the choir and soloist(s) holding candles and singing "Libera me" - slowly as the voices stopped they snuffed out their candles finally there was one singer singing and then her candle went out and she sobbed the final line. You could hear the genuine sobs in the audience and over half the audience when the lights went up were crying.
Opera can be emotional but it can be funny and telling deep stories etc.
Very well put. You’ve had some great experiences it sounds like. I was at the performance of the Verdi requiem in memory of Dimitri Hvorostovsky and I’ve never had an experience quite like that. The power and reverence in that music is unmatched. Sabaton has been a big part of my listening so I’d like to dig deeper into their rep, the power metal and their more melancholic music soon.

Our local Landestheater (in a neighbouring city)
did the full ring over four seasons - one opera per season.
They then did all four operas in a week
Saturday night - Das Rheingold (set in the French revolutionary period)
Sunday evening - Die Walküre (first world war period)
Thursday evening - as that was a public holiday - Siegfried (set in the sixties - as the hippy wild child)
Sunday evening - Götterdämmerung (set in the near future)
It was fantastic seeing them all back to back so to speak.
BTW I tend to go to opera in a leather jacket and jeans with boots
and when I went to Helsinki Opera House to see
John Adams' ""The Death of Klinghofer"
and as it was -10°C outside - I went in a pair of thermal camo pants.
I notice several folks in the audience looking like me
and they were looking curiously at me.
It turned out they were members of the chorus who early on in the opera
"hijacked the opera house"
Opera and also for me theatre are fascinating arts which I enjoyimmensely
as well as punk, hardcore, post-hardcore, metalcore and other forms of live music.
You’re the best for showing up in that outfit 🤣
Also, coincidentally, I made a first time listening reaction to 1916 this week. I hadn’t heard it before (I’ve only listened to Sabaton’s power metal) but I just recorded a reaction for it that is premiering tomorrow. What an immensely powerful song. I didn’t know it was a cover though (bracing for comments!!)
You’re the kind of person I’d love to sit and talk to. The ring cycle is like a marathon for opera lovers. And opera singers more often than not will show up back stage dressed like rock stars rather than “opera” people if you can believe it haha.

My home town Huddersfield had and has a Contemporary Music Festival
and when one year my mother went to hear a talk by Elliott Carter
(the grand old man of American modern music - though not an opera writer)
she said to me afterwards "He and I were they only people in the room with clean rain coats on!"
(My mother is a source of stories about saying things - I once threatened to turn her into an Alan Bennett monologue after her death)
I am definitely in the dirty rain coat brigade LOL
I look forward to the 1916 video - though you might catch flak
if you didn't watch the three minute plus end titles
with Tina Guo (郭婷娜) playing cello.
Good stuff. Really. Ha. I was one of those who was afraid you were going to stop the video short!
Knowing the backstory, this song makes me cry
You should read Higher Call its about these 2 pilots and their experiences
Such a beautiful story of mercy
This story should be a movie...
Attack of the Dead Men is my favorite one of these
That’s an opera I want to see!
On their history channel when they talk about To Hell and Back they mention Audie Murphy' s son . He liked what they did about his father. Audi is the most decorated officer in WWll. In the song 82nd All the way the guy was the most decorated officer n WWl
The Knight's cross is a medal citation for pilots. Stiegler never received one because he didn't shoot the pub down.
He also didn't report any victories he earnt after this incident, and instead attributed them to those that died under his command
Even if it's been a year now, or maybe more, I have to correct your comment a bit.
Every German soldier, regardless of rank, service and branch of service, could earn the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross.
It was therefore only awarded around 7500 times, and the requirements were very high in order to receive this award.
There were also 4 more levels: Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, awarded 863 times, Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords, awarded 147 times, Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds, awarded 27 times.
The highest two awards, the Grand Cross to the Knight's Cross and the Golden Oak Leaves with Swords and Diamonds were only awarded once.
Loved you're reaction.. Both heart and mind ...
Yes
I've seen this video a couple of times but I always wondered how or why it would help to escort the damaged plane. I mean they couldn't have helped or anything. I'm this years old 'til i noticed from the video that the Germans halted the AA fire when they saw their own plane next to him, I guess to not hit him? Now that I realised this, the whole story gets a bit more intense for me. Not only consorting but also protecting.
Just some of my thoughts. Love the song
He make sure that the B-17 made it in her Safezone without killing from german plains.
Franz wants a faight fight between soldiers/both sides.
We'll, let's be clear here. Bombers in WWII (and most combat planes in general) were designed to be able to fly even with essentially half the plane missing. You could lose half a wing and part of the tail, and there's even a story of one continuing to fly with half of each wing gone, and continue to stay airborne so long as your engines were able to run at full power. Some planes made it back home with only two engine running, some with one failing just as it reached the runway. These things were engineering marvels.
Ahh sh#t.... here we go again 😢
Awsome reaction!
So this story is even better when you look it up.
Haha poor floor’s fan. Made me chuckle.
I love the look on your face here LOL!! Check out the story video for Night Witches if you haven't already.
My Grandfather flew the Fw-190 and eventually the Me-262 during WW2. Americans brought him over in 1947, because they need trainers for jet powered aircraft in combat.
Minor correction… VERY minor because I’m no expert, so maybe I’m wrong, but I *think* this is correct… and just want to comment to keep the story straight. It’s not the Iron Cross. It’s the Knight’s Cross. And the reason I’m so hesitant about this correction is that I *think* the Iron Cross is the overall term. Soooooo… the Knight’s Cross is a “level” of the Iron Cross. I *think*. So, you weren’t, technically, wrong in suggesting that “the cross he deserved” was the Iron Cross. It’s more a distinction of specifics. I *think* Stigler actually missed out on the Knight’s Cross. VERY minor correction.
There is just no honor in killing a defenseless enemy. It's just murder. This is a code of honor often shown in WWI by German and Britisch pilots. They stopped attacking an enemy who was not longer able to fight. Even when the reason was just a jamming machine gun.
Hi! I love this it`s soo cool no dry eye for this one to. Sabaton rules. Love Sweden Loner-Swe Div2.
Trivia, to who is the drummer of this band married to, she is known as the Dutch Valkyrie Goddess of Metal. .
Floor Jansen!!!!!
Now I know you reacted to Amon Amarth Twilight Of The Thunder God, but how about comparing the Amon Amarth version with the covers made by Sabaton and Rage Of Light?
I'm pretty sure 'said goodbye to the cross he deserved' was in reference to the german pilot, who was never awarded for his actions in the war. I could be wrong though, it's been awhile since I've looked into it.
Stigler was awarded. He was an ace and he had awards reflecting that. But when he spared Ye Olde Pub he was one bomber kill away from the Knights Cross, the highest award in the German military. And after this, he wouldn't report his victories, as he believed the Cross was a macabre measure of how how many lives he'd taken.
He'd instead attribute his victories to the young and poorly trained pilots that died under his command without any victories.
If you want to learn more, I highly recommend 'A Higher Call' by Adam Makos
@@solthegamer3769 Thanks for the correction. I read that book about 7 years ago on my first deployment, and haven't read it again since. I think I will now. The biggest thing I remember was how awful the German pilots were treated by their fellow Germans after the war, and his pilot's boots gave him away, but they were the best he had to wear immediately after the war. I remember a few other snippets from the book, but most of the details I've forgotten since then.
He would got the knight cross/iron cross for 30 enemy Planes shot down...
Till to this moment he had 29 shot down...
His instructor said, when he know that somebody kill a pilot who is hanging in a parachute, he will kill that pilot himself...
For Franz Stigler the guys where no enemy. In this demage plane he See them like somebody hanging in a parachute...
No, the knights cross of the iron cross! Germanys highest military award, the knight cross with oak leaves!
Even if it's been a year now, or maybe more, I have to correct your comment a bit.

Nice reaction!
Hey! Just saw this one and the red baron you've reacted to. Do I dare to say that it's time to pick up you reacting to Sabaton again? 😉 would be cool !
It's American engineering dude.💪🏻💪🏻
Uh, B-17 is American plane

Onions! Sheeesh!

Can you react to ReoNa - Anima on the first take? Kinda similar to LiSa but I really want to know how to sing like her.
You sound like the the MSM capital M
Why bother since nowadays all you need is a self guided missile from several miles away and that’s well it, unlike wars of the past where they were personal they were face to face and this isn’t to say that that doesn’t happen it’s just that it happens less now than ever, since the code or honor of war is lost replaced with cold efficiency, there’s little room for things like say letting the enemy go or even an entire army leave due to the nature of modern warfare
Yes, we can't imagine a war as massive. However sad it might sound, man has a tendency to startle what atrocities they can commit. If that is money or faith, war is inevitable with present day mindset. 😑
It's like Garabaldi said in an episode of Babylon 5, "until we start referencing historical ages by the peace times and not the wars, nothin's gonna change."
He would have won the cross for 30 kills but he chose not to kill the 3 men
👍🏻
PLEASE react to "Knorkator - Ma Baker - Live at Wacken Open Air 2014".
