As 100% PTSD rated vet. He makes me look like a sissy. Thank you for being to understand his pain...one vet to another. Take care bro.
Thank you for your service
Look up Ballad of Bull Allen and 82nd all the way (story of Alvin York) both from Sabaton. They are real men. Not me. It is comforting but also sad when one knows the stories. And there are so many more. Desmond Doss etc. Take care bro. 1 vet to the next. Love your channel. @@AmericansLearn
Regarding the snipers being targeted by artillery. It’s both a terrible way to die but it’s also quite a badass way to go out when you consider the fact that the enemy has deemed you to be such a high level threat that they are actually willing to utilize what equates to several hundred thousand dollars worth of ordinance to take out one person.
Francis Pegahmagabow never received the Victoria Cross as it was deemed that no single event he did made him be able to earn the Victoria Cross. In fact the Military Medal he did receive is on the second lowest tier of British Military medals. He did receive 2 bars on the Military Medal but he would never receive a medal higher. It is believed that because he was a Native American, that he wasn't able to receive any higher ranking medal, either by people in the British or Canadian governments, perhaps even both. And there were many higher ranking men that didn't believe Pegahmagabow has he usually didn't have an observer with him. During WW2, Pegahmagabow would serve as a guard near a munitions plant in Nebel, Ontario and would be a Major Sergeant of a local militia. He would fight for equality for his people and suffer setbacks from the Canadian government but he always moved forward.
So even more of a hero than we even knew. Thank you for sharing
I loved this reaction, but if this is his reaction, I'm sooooo pumped up for when he's going to react to the "First Soldier" and all that stuff of legends that should be utterly impossible 😂😂😂
Soldier of 3 armies is gonna be a great one too. Wisdom is well he split up the 3 parts, or watch it all in 1 sitting?
Still surprises mr there’s no movie (that I’m aware of) about this man
There really should be.
The number of effective/deadly snipers that were first hunters is pretty staggering
It's amazing as much as the military didn't want minorities in and it didn't matter whether it was United States Britain,or Canada there are several units and people of individuality that served with distinction just to prove these people wrong.
Next do a reaction for Come On by Oktaf Kanis, thank you 🙌🏻🔥
I`m not surprised to learn that he favoured the deadly accurate Ross rifle over the standard Lee-Enfield, but did he use a scope? Canada`s top sniper in WW2 and Korea was also an aboriginal, by the name of Tommy Prince. I wonder what weapon he used?
They'd send Francis to assassinate the Kaiser and he'd come back to HQ holding Wilhelm's mustache, NOT having killed him... Then he'd just sneak back in the next night and finish the job
Wasn't saltpetre (LITERAL tree stump remover) given out as "anti-erection medication"?
he was given a medicine pouch
they should do a song on Sgt. Tommy Prince of the Devils Brigade
Hey great vid, im subscibed.
Please do Canada's WWII Rambo "Leo Major" you wont be disappointed.
The sad thing about these times is, it was the norm for minorities like Native Canadians or others racial ethnics. They weren't on the same social level to most Europeons majority (whites), however the small things like how the French Treated black colonial troops equally to their own and later the British treated Black Americans equally when staging for deployment in WW2. So whilst the downsides of Pegahmagabow not being given a VC for his dedication and efforts, the seeds of better times going foward were there even if small. Accolades mean little in all honesty, most soldiers go without medals (excluding campaign tours) for feats unlike anything in common homelife.
Thats how a sniper dies. Artillery.
How he did not get the victorian cross?
Easy:
RACISM.
✊🫡 🙏🏻❤️❤️.
