Torn between religious pacifism and patriotism, Alvin York of Tennessee went on to become World War I's most acclaimed hero. As the simple backwoods farm boy who captured 132 German soldiers during the Battle of Argonne, Gary Cooper (handpicked by York) also won acclaim - and his first Best Actor Academy Award®. Released in 1941 when the United States was on the brink of another war, this stirring adventure inspired thousands of enlisting men. Nominated for a total of 11 Oscars® including Best Picture, a winner for Best Film Editing and movingly directed by Howard Hawks, it tells of a religious man's moral crisis, heroics and subsequent return to the rural life he loved while refusing to capitalize on the adulation heaped upon him. An ode to patriotism and the human spirit, Sergeant York endures as one of Hollywood's finest hours.
Directed By Howard Hawks
Starring Gary Cooper, Walter Brennan, Joan Leslie

For about 90 years there was controversy over whether Sergeant York actually did all the things he claimed he did to win the MoH. Around 2010 there was an archaeological expedition that actually found the battle site in the Argonne forest and excavated it. They were able to map out the German machine gun nests and lines as well as the position of the Americans. Miraculously, they actually found groups of empty casings for the type of rifle and pistol York used in exactly the positions York claimed he fought from, confirming his story. The movie scene here accurately shows what York did to save his comrades. He single-handedly killed approximately 25 Germans and got 90 more to surrender.
Yes, it the movie got it wrong. He used an M-1917 rifle, not an 03, and an M-1911 pistol.
Didn’t know that.

No matter what an expert says or this person says, sarge York, did what he needs to do during that battle. Salutes
Sergeant York is a National Hero. And like so many others he did his duty and stayed faithful to his eternal love of God and his beliefs. 🙏
Sergeant York, a real American. A true Soldier.
My dad is one of the turkeys...😅🎉🎉🎉 WGNJMNFAS
@@user-eo9ie7zn9p condolences
Pity it’s a movie - rather than real life!
@robertcottam8824 yeah well it actually happened and he has the Medal Of Honor and eyewitness accounts on both sides to prove it.
Imagine York with a full dressed M4!!😮😮😮
Sergeant York american hero, very good. This should not also make us forget Albert Fernand Séverin Roche who was a French soldier who fought during the First World War. He is known for being the most decorated French soldier of that war, having been wounded nine times and having captured a total of some 1,180 German soldiers. He was nicknamed “the first soldier of France” by Marshal Ferdinand Foch.
1st and last
@@bruceseaman6592
Hmmm. The French are rather better soldiers than ‘Murcans, sweetheart.
If it hadn’t been for the French, you’d still be singing ‘God Save The King’.
Ask any nationality - ‘cept ‘Murcans o’ course - and you’ll find that nobody else rates ‘Murcan soldiers at all…
There’s an acronym for ‘em in NATO - A.T.K.N.F.I. : All the kit no somethin’ idea.
They’re known by Canucks, Kiwis, Brits and Aussies as the “Big Hats And Banjos”: Make a lot a noise about ‘emselves but utterly useless.
In short, gimme one French soldier instead o’ three ‘Murcans, poppet.
Toot toot!
WGAF.The subject of the film is York.
@@Clone-tt6lg This does not prevent us from having a broader vision.
my favorite movie.
Only the late York knows the story. Man with few words.
0:06 I love that movie
Sgt York is a treasure and from Tennessee!
He was just a man doing his duty as he saw it. He saw it pretty damn well and did it pretty damn well
Super
"I ain't real good at dis har practizen " ..like alotvof the famous snipers sharp shooters...they were poor hunting folk. Calm, patient and deliberate. 👍
…and in the movies…
It was the poor hunting folk the AAF went to for gunners on the bombers. After hunting birds, they understood the concept of leading your target as you shoot.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
When ya coming home, Alvin?
I know !!!! Gotta love it.
Get some!
In the late 1950’s his unit gave him a wheel chair converted car so he could get to the dr ❤❤❤❤❤god bless !!!
The Real Sgt.York Used a 1911 Colt 45 Not a 9mm Luger. Good Movie.
I read somewhere that the film’s prop/firearms guy could not get the blank rounds to cycle in the 1911 so made the switch to the Luger.
@@mikeullery6754 That's Hollywood For You..
@@maureencora1it’s not even about that. 1911’s couldn’t really cycle blanks efficiently at the time
@@Kerberos-hx7xf Touche' (smile)
I heard they had trouble with the blanks in the 1911.
Sergeant York and Aníbal Milhais ; Soldado Milhões (Soldier Millions). best war stories
Not depicted in the movie but most were head shots!
Ima gonna git me a piece a that thar bottom land, Mah!
I know it's a movie, but since I was a kid, I've always wondered why Sergeant York doesn't use a machine gun in the scene near the end where he shoots German soldiers when there's a machine gun right next to him. (lol)
If it were me, I'd use a machine gun rather than a rifle.
2:23 bro there was a machineguj right next to you,just use it
My first question is why does this video show a date of 1941 which would be the time of WW2 when Alvin York fought in WW1 between say 1915 to 1917? I admit I haven’t watched the video, but Sgt. Alvin York fought in WW1. Is it relevant to this video?
1) was a movie "Sergeant York" released in 1941. 2) America entered WW I in April 1917, Sgt. York's heroics depicted in movie happened in October 1918 3) at that time, 1941, movies had been a tool to influence public opinion; accordingly, the timing of this movie's release was no accident. Was done in part to prepare Americans for our possible entry into WW II.
Because it’s a movie not a documentary, poppet.
In real life, the Americans weren’t really in WW1 until the Germans were already surrendering.
They didn’t have any tanks, they had no planes, a tiny navy… I’m not sure that they even had their own helmets.
They brought influenza with ‘em though which killed hundreds of thousands o’ folk.
Would have been better if they’d stayed away, really.
Good film though.
1941 was when the movie was released
The movie was made in 1941. York was in WW1. It was released just about the time of Pearl Harbor attack.
@@robertcottam8824 You have some good points but I think when the U.S. entered the war with a million men in the field, the Germans knew they couldn't win. That plus what was happening in Germany. That whole "Germany was stabbed in the back" myth was crap, they ran out of men and the will to fight.
@1:50 York is shooting a German Luger P08.
Best ww1 movie ever.
York ha usato un fucile M 1917, non uno Springfield 1903
It may not be fashionable to say so, but as he crfossed an arra swept by fire without a scratch, one cannot help but think someone was keeping an eye out for york. What's the line from the bible? He who honors me, shall i honor.
Movies
The movie is rather hammy. But York did do what he got his MOH.
2:40
Why is he using a single shot rifle with a machine gun 3 feet to his right?
edit:-bolt action repeating rifle,
He wasn't using a single shot rifle, He was using a bolt action repeating rifle, which in the hands of a capable shooter, as Sgt. York proved, is an extremely quick firing device. Try one someday, you will surprise yourself.
@@kingadaroad6595
Faster than a machine gun?
@@thisisme2476 no but the machine gunners had to look at york to hit him so york kept the machine gunners heads down by constantly firing at their heads
He probably knew he could be more effective with his bolt action 1903 rifle. One shot that takes out an enemy is better then 200 shots that don’t hit anything at all
Probably didn't know how to use it.
Check out the pistol he was using a luger not a 1911, so much for accuracy. Never the less it was a great movie , about a man who was a patherate.
They had him use a Luger because it’s hard to get a 1911 to cycle using blanks
Charly chaplin ahaha
😂
Mr York was world war 1 not world war 2 movies always misinformation about real history of war and they didn't have machines gun in world war 1 when Hitler was German soldier know that the Tommy gun wasn't used till 1943 and York was using the m1 five shots rifle when it was only rifle issues in world war 1
The belt-fed machine gun was around for years before WW1. Both America and Spain used machine guns in the Spanish-American War of 1898. German developers were leading the world in firearms development, and by the time of the First World War, German machine guns were highly effective and used extensively throughout the war.
It could only happen in the movies the Germans were shooting to the left of the ridge but surrendered to the right 😅
Not buyin , this sounds anti American .
Good thing he didn’t have to depend on trump!
BOO!!
Do you always interject your TDS into conversation where it's utterly irrelevant to the topic?
@@user-vl8qw8hp1g If he was depending on Biden like what happened in Afganistan, Biden would have gotten them all killed.
You mean like Biden getting our troops killed in afganistan then running away and arming the taliban terrorists ?
Or Clinton or Biden or Obama or Gore or Schumer, or a thousand other politicians, mostly democrat's
