Sabaton won the Enlighter of the Year award 2022. They were the first rock band to receive this prestigious accolade. This award usually goes to academics, authors, journalists and media who go far and beyond to educate people.
Thats so fucking awesome and well earned.
I didn't know that... that's awesome 👍
Its a shame it wasn't until 2022, but is awesome it finally happened.
@@Wrathlon It’s a yearly Swedish award, but why tf didn’t they win it earlier
Very well deserved. They use a media MUCH more accessible and relatable to spark interest in others to research and learn about History.
So, I'm a major nerd. And there's one incredibly nerdy fact that makes this song hit me incredibly, incredibly hard. One of the Lieutenants at the Somme who survived would go on to essentially father the modern genre of western fantasy. His name was John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. If one shell had landed differently, if one bullet had take a different path, fantasy literature would look extremely different today without many great works. And it makes me wonder, just what some of the men who did die might have gone on to do had they lived instead of dying in a muddy cratered field in France. It's just unfathomable tragic.
One of my favorite details from the lyrics of "Fields of Verdun:" Fields of execution turned to wasteland from the grass
Thou shalt go no further it was said, "They shall not pass!"
@@clicheusername7182 slightly less related, but the rohirrim charge was based on the cavalry charge of the winged hussars at the battle of Vienna which is also the inspiration for Winged Hussars by sabaton
First rule of war, young men die. Second rule, nobody can change the first rule. RIP to those who did not grow old... 😔🕯️🏴
third? Always fear the old man who's profession is killing.
you get the third one wrong "always fear the old in the profession where the casualties mostly the young"
I've always heard it as "fear the old man in a profession where men die young"
first rule of war, poor men die
Sure that's a mash quote. Sadly so true
Lemmy Kilmister did this to you, he punched you in the soul to make sure you don't forget, and Sabaton are keeping that legacy alive with exactly the same force.
It's meant to hurt, that's how we remember the fallen.
No shame in crying manly tears. The soldiers and their families have cried many more...
Man, you know what just struck me as being even more moving? The last thing that's said in the lyrics is that nobody now remembers these soldiers' name - and in the credits, every soldier character has a name. They don't have any lines, we have no way to recognize them individually on screen - but still Sabaton took the trouble to give each and every one of them an identity of their own. How amazing isn't that?
That is why we should all go to our local war memorial and give thanks for those that gave their lives in both wars, no just on November 11 but when we need a moment of reflection to remember how fortunate we are.
I read your comment, but then I got to that point in the video (not the first time) and then it hit me, harder, that Sabaton actually went back and not just got their names but portrayed them individually. It is amazing.
Something I’ll always praise my nation for is how we commemorated the dead of WW1.
At Ypres you can find a memorial that should contain the names of over 57,000 men who were killed there but their bodies unrecorded.
The small gateway to the town however was never big enough for all 57,000 names so they actually had to create a cut of point or 7th August 1917 where the last names added and the rest are kept in another memorial.
And it’s not just there either. Every site you’ll find placks, graves and memorials commemorating the nameless and the unfounded. Thousands of men buried without knowing who they are or where they are.
But forever remembered too.
But what truly remembers them is the tomb of the unknown warrior. For any and all families who lost someone but have no grace to morn can always take heart in knowing that any one of their sons, brothers, fathers and so on can be there, buried alongside royalty and forever preserved and honoured by all who walk there.
I have watched it 10 time's and I have not thought about that... thanks.
All of those soldiers to my knowledge are real ppl who Sabaton had either done songs on or researched for songs
The two guys holding a picture of Lemmy Kilmister were Mike Dee and Phil Campbell two of the members of Motorhead. To think all the OG members of Motorhead Lemmy, Eddie and Phil are no longer with us.
P.S the cello outro is done by Tina Guo she appears a couple of times with Sabaton one for Steel Commanders music video the other during the live performance of Swedish Pagans at Wacken
they are also standing at the door opening just before the part with Lemmy's picture.
That maybe because 1919 is a Motörhead song
@@shannonphillips5443 But it's a really special cover when they have the original bands members in it with a picture of their dead band member.
'In war, whichever side may call itself the victor, there are no winners, but all are losers.' - Neville Chamberlain
G0vernm3nts win, by fulfilling their greedy desires, by starting wars and sending men to war, which are trash for them, even war heroes, who are used as tool for propaganda and then thrown away
Hannes and Tommy's clothes are the Carolean outfits. So from the Carolus Rex albums. Not Christmas Truce.
This song is very powerful and its a great tribute to Lemmy and the original.
I knew I had seen them somewhere. Christmas truce felt off as the timing was wrong but yes… livgardet I guess
Yes, Livgardet/Royal Guard. :) That's accurate.
It was the blue from Tommy's French uniform in Christmas Truce that confused you ^^
@@VikingReacts There were no "oppressor" in ww1.
"Only the dead have seen the end of war."
How about that... Plato in my comments. Nice!
saw sabaton live in leeds 5 days ago, the first people in the world to see 1916 live(the day it released) absolutely amazing experience, RIP to those who never did grow any older
Agree the gig was epic👍🏻
It was my first metal concert and it was amazing, a shame about the audio for Lordi but glad they fixed it
@@damidoxgaming3891 Didn't get to see much of Lordi thanks to clown planet security. Was really disappointed with Baby Metal after what I'd heard about them and seen on YT. Sabaton is one of those bands that no matter how many times you see them you won't get to hear all your favourite songs however they don't disappoint.
@@chromiumphotography5138 I've loved Babymetal for quite a few years and comparing to a lot of their Japan concerts it's definitely not as good but it definitely wasn't bad either, thankfully I got in before the concert started but I think they should have allowed people in sooner with how many people attended
@@chromiumphotography5138 its probably because they arent able to do the whole production without headlining
Let's raise one horn to Birmingham, birthplace of metal, and another to Lemmy. My wife's grandfather was one of those who lied about his age - he was only _14_ when he went to the Front! He got out alive, thanks to some amazing luck: he was wounded and taken to a field hospital, and his own father was there at the same time. He swore a lot when he saw his son, then wrote to his wife back home explaining the situation. She in turn sent evidence of their boy's age to the War Office and they pulled him out. After he came home he never spoke to anyone in the family about his experiences.
Thanks for sharing... I'm viking, but I don't think I would have that courage at that age... that's pretty admirable 👍
if a sabaton song fails to make you feel emotions, you have no heart. war is hell, there are no winners.
Damn right.
gonna make a mash quote here that i love, "war isn't hell, war is worse than hell, in hell only sinners go to hell aka ppl that are in hell belong there so there's no innocent bystanders in hell, but war is full of them, so war is even worse than hell itself" I remember getting chills hearing that the first time...
The part where it said that a whole generation of men being wiped out is why that era of soldiers was called "The Lost Generation". WW1 was the first modern era of warfare, and technology to kill one another showed the brutality of wars that was to come in the 20th century.
They should never have recruited based on local groups promising to keep them together.
@@nancyjanzen5676 Or the local groups should have been split into smaller groups and spread across all warfronts so if some of them were wiped out and some survived, it shouldn’t had that tragical impact to local communities. British commanders were often incompetent, all british army were “ Lions lead by donkeys.”Well, we just need to hope that the next generations will learn from previous gens’ mistakes.
@@purpletigerfish7697 except the “lions led by donkeys” part is quite a myth. Even the Great War channels points that out.
Hell the reason generals were told to stop going over and taking part in front line meetings was because in just 1914 alone 14 British generals were killed.
Note we’re not even talking about when they had the pals battalions and anything else, just the BEF regulars. And losing a general of brigade, division, corps and army is absolutely a major loss to all combat viability and control.
Plus, we’re talking about a war that nobody on any side had a single idea would turn out like it did. Every operation that we can sit and pick apart with the greatest of detail, they had zilch of that. They literally had what information that had on hand and what scouts and runners reported to them by hand.
Literally most things were found out “in the moment” of an engagement. Even at the Somme here. A full week of bombardment went in on the German positions and on the wire. But nobody knew how dud it had all been until they literally went over and made it to said places.
- plus the myth they walked from the trenches to the guns is a bit wrong. Only a handful of battalions were forced to do such with the majority of the men being launched from forward saps and positions to limit just how far that had to go. Sadly the wire which was hoped to be cut wasn’t and the Germans who were supposed to be wiped out, came up from there 10 meter deep positions and managed to pull together a quick defence.
Hell most of it sadly came down to the fact that we just didn’t have the equipment and training at the time which Germany and France had being that they’d already had 17 month’s experience of trench warfare.
Plus you ignore the regimental, battalion and even brigade officers who all partook considering. The unkillable soldier himself was a senior officer who lead from the front and the memorials themselves show just how many officers died - remember the reason you don’t see that many high ranking officers on the blocks isn’t cause they weren’t there or didn’t die, it’s cause compared to the enlisted ranks, there just aren’t as many of them.
Hell hell look to the McCrae’s battalion during the Somme. When his men failed to return he went out himself to find them and the men talk of him firing from inside the redoubt they were in with a rifle. The man was in his very late years and still he done his duty and he ended up living and taking back those he helped save and keep together there.
So yeah, look into the actual history behind that saying and it’s mainly just not true. Hell even the idea of the aristocracy vs the commoner is quite mythicised when you take into consideration that the majority of the cavalry were all aristocrats and from there the majority of airmen were aristocrats. And they didn’t have any less a casualty bed than any others.
@@nancyjanzen5676 They didn't learn from the American Civil War. Same issue, many of the regiments were recruited from a single area. One of the reasons they did this is you were lees likely to run in battle, as you couldn't go back home as a coward. It worked, but small towns payed a terrible price.
I went into this song expecting a fast paced traditional Sabaton song. Imagine how I felt after listening to this. As an amateur historian, this made my cry almost uncontrollably.
Hundreds of millions dead over the course of human history. Era after era, and this story played out during each and every one of them. Beautiful song. Sabaton has done it again.
Hello from Florida. I'm retired, US Army. This tugs at you. Anyway, if you look at the video a few times, you'll see subtle nods to other sabaton videos, night witches, no bullets fly, etc.. the tan convertible they walk past, is a nod to Arch Duke Ferdinands car. Another commenter pointed out some of that, so credit to them.
True, everything in this video is there with a purpose.
Those aren't tears! Those are tiny water soldiers marching down my face into battle!
Works for me... Let them walk in a straight line and head held high!
"What's the price of a mile?"
To be horribly frank, if I've learned anything from history it is that humans as a whole, *never* learn from history.
tends to happen when you forget it
Sad but true. Even when people remember history.
Man was given free will by God, the saddest part of this gift is that it causes greed and ego that someone wants what others have… so the same dirt from Jesus’ time is still being fought over because someone isn’t satisfied with his place in life! So young men go to war to fight for those who want to live in peace and love and respect for the many! 😢😣😢🙁
I showed this song to my wife, daughter and sisters. They all were enjoying it in a good mood. When i show it my brothers, uncles and male friends, they cried. Only men can feel this song. R.I.P Lenny......
I cry almost every time,and I heard it many times since released.
@@McCullogh That line breaks me too, every time... I can't imagine my son in that situation, and not being there for him...
@@McCullogh That was the line where I started to cry too.
@@carinarodebak9419 this song has been reducing me to tears for over 30 years..the original and this version
Sorry, but I cried the first time I heard it and have teared up every time since. I’m from a military family. My dad fought in WWII. He rarely spoke of it. My grandfather was born in 1900 and enlisted in 1916. He lied about his age and fought in France. He _never_ spoke of it. I’ve shown this video to two friends, they both cried, so I don’t know what’s going with your ladies.
My grandmother told me about her uncle fighting in the Middle East in WW1. He lost his horses three times to dehydration. He lived because he forced himself to drink what the horses would not. He was a year in hospital when he got back to Sydney with infections of his bowel. He was part of the charge on Beersheba and wrote back home about his wonder at seeing a flying machine and getting bombed by it.
Those who will not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. We see it happen time after time. Sabaton have tought me so much and now I hope they will get through those thicker skulls so that someday we may live in a world where we can live without fear
Politicians start wars. The kids of farmers and factory workers fight them. Their deaths no skin off the elites noses.
The life of a Soldier is hard and short in times of war, we are the silent protectors that no-one hears about but give everything
True. And if we return home we're treated like dirt. May get even charged for following commands.
I think we can all understand the undeniable fact for most us. To call for your mother in your ultimate time of need! It strikes me super hard everytime.
It's Sabaton, we all cry and you know what? It's ok to, just proves you have a heart and not afraid to show it. My Great Grandpa Sydney was a L.Cpl. with the middlesex Regiment. He lost his life during the Battle of the Somme. At least it's one name I can remember.
The uniforms that Tommy, and Hannes wore are Swedish military uniforms. You can see the whole band wearing these uniform in the Royal Guard video.
Tina Guo on the cello after the main song. And, yes, Tommy made his guitar sound sad again...
This song always makes me cry. It hits me every time so hard😢 Has anyone else also have that?
I cried once or twice, but I get goosebumps every time.
I still do, this one hurts. Lemmy's lyrics are absolute poetry and it reminds us of why we should never forget the Lost Generation.
It gets me every time when he cries for his mother 😢😢
The clothes Hannes and Tommy wear with the tricorne hat were from "Royal Guard" ^^
I knew I’d seen them somewhere! Thanks
Never to forget that souls still roam the battleground and only they have seen the end of war
i am from west yorkshire and my great grandfather is buried in ypes belgium i have all his medals one is the george medal...we will never forget my friends
Lancastrian here. Now married and living in, guess where? My paternal grandfather survived. Have you read Thomas Harris' book, "Covenant With Death"? About a Sheffield pals regiment. Can recommend.
Lemmys words and Sabatons performance plus the cinemotography...is pure pain.
I am most thankful for your reaction and for sharing your emotions with us.
Carina, have you watched this as many times as me? I think so...its rough every time, but I'm compelled to embrace every reactor!
@@amygoodson-catlady yes, I think so Amy
th-cam.com/video/qc2CgzcrMm4/w-d-xo.html
A little titbit I stumbled on today.
Even that I'm German I understand every single word and it hits deep.
at this point, i've seen quite a few reactions to this song. just about everybody cries with this one, and so do I, (not every time, but sometimes it still catches me) and you're right, we've learned nothing from the past.
oh and when Tommy did his solo, about the costume, it was the first thing that crossed my mind as well "hey i know that costume!" hehe
Hi I am Norse from Sweden and I sent an email to the Swedish government yesterday about visiting Viktor Orban in Hungary. I gave them a link to the Sabaton video "En livstid i krig" "a lifetime at war". I strongly suggested them to walk down the path of peace!! War happens when brains fail to process good thoughts. It is highly symbolic, I am a hobby mystic trying to turn my soul from led to gold. The soldier often ends up with led in his body, that is no bueno, lets turn it around 180degrees and turn our souls to gold instead! It is long overdue for a PARADIGM shift for humanity, end all wars!! Life is a great challenge anyway, isn't it
My grandad was a pilot for the Lancaster Bomber, i never met him, but i learnt his story and his krew. The lancaster was called Vergeltungswaffe, the only german named aircraft in the RAF. lest we forget, to all the men, women and animals who fought, and still fighting
So basically retaliation weapon. Love it! That is a good name for what it actually was. I've seen Lancasters fly and have been up close with one as well. They are a sight...and a SOUND! Keep that story alive!
And: Ver heill ok sæll! ;)
The "Romans" are Leonidas and Pausanias referring to Sparta.
The video is full of Easter eggs referring to other Sabaton songs.
Yeah I saw that during editing. That is why I added the "SPARTANS YOU IDIOT" captions ;).
I interpreted it wrong due to my instant link to Asterix and Obelix comics and the way these soldiers looked like the romans in those comics :P.
Only during editing did i see the helmet shape and immediately recognized them as Spartan. I actually facepalmed ;)
And the soldier in the ANZAC hat was Mouri Battalion whih was at Gallipoli prior to the western front.
Don’t know if anyone has bought this up yet, but one of the towns in Lancashire that stands out for this was Accrington where their Pals Battalion lost almost 85% of their men in half an hour during the Somme. That’s 585 men of 700 overall as casualties. Just horrific.
I saw Sabaton play this live last week. It was as good as the video. Brilliant gig. 👏
I'll see them very soon :).
how was babymetal?
Saw them sing it live for the first time in Leeds last week, as a motorhead fan I was singing along
The scream of the NAZGUL in Lord of the rings is taken from the battle of Somme, bombs dropping from the sky ...
Been watching this clip several times now and never made it with dry eyes once, yet this still keeps going on
Tears is probably the approrpriate response to this video
The fallen men and their families have shed so many more…
@@VikingReacts Amen
It is so sad that we never learn. Why do we fight? It never ends just gets worse. Thanks for the song.❤
The different outfits are not only a walk through history, but also through their discography. You had the Harlem Hell Fighter covered in Hellfighters, King Leonidas covered in Sparta you had the Caroleans covered in the entire Carolus Rex album, you had the 82nd airborn division covered in 82nd All The Way and many more references to other songs they made
Well done Viking!
Im a fan of sabaton, after coming back of some trenches near my region in italy, famous for our ww1 history, i scream and cry all day that day...i love history most that period, and hurt me hearing it. Knowing 16 y.o kid and man dying for us there took me a whole day not to cry, visiting for (hobby) trenches. But that was so emotional, and i pray for them (as pagan) so they can drink and laugh at odins table. Sabaton do a fantastic job with this song
It really is stunning with the numbers and the words of the song. Mind boggling! Heartbreaking.
What a great song ❤️ no words to describe my feelings
My son loves Sabaton and war history so it’s just perfect for him he introduced me to them and now I really like them. He wants to see them in concert so bad they never come where we live.
The references are to other Sabaton songs, the car same that Franz F was assassinated in, the woman, a Nightwitch in the shadows, the romans - Sparta and the list goes on, dedicated fans will see all the Easter Eggs. It's amazing.
The Swedish Carolean was Charles Xll Svea Livgarde "Bodyguards" to his death..
Cello! 🤦 My great-grandfather was 15 when he enlisted. He came back and died an old man. RIP, Charlie Blackwell.
Yeah, i only noticed that after editing and uploading as someone pointed it out during the premiere. My bad. But luckily... you understood what I meant :).
15 years young is terribly young. I hate to imagine what these kids saw and took home for the rest of their days. I hope he had a happy life.
@@VikingReacts He did. He and his sons - Dad's Uncles - were all milkmen.
The cello at the end is performed by Tina Guo
Tina Guo, again with her masterful cello performance.
It's got to hit even harder for you. You probably have walked on the soil where a lot of this blood fell. ••• Thanks! PEACE!!!
Great grandfather was there.😢
My town is one of the northern Lancashire towns that had a generation wiped out, I’d recommend researching the Burnley Pals and the Accrington Pals. In Burnley we have a specific Burnley Pals memorial behind the cenotaph in the town centre, and in Accrington they have a huge Accrington Pals mural in the town centre
Sabaton makes you feel and you want educate yourself.
Just seen Sabaton live first was last Friday in Leeds UK then last night in Glasgow Scotland this song was brilliant
I'll see them in 2 weeks :)
@@VikingReacts Thats brill im positive you will have a great night ENJOY
It is the saddest of Sabaton, I cried a lot
The end of the song will always bring tears to my eyes, I am from Lancashire and I recently found out that 6 of my relatives died in this conflict....
This makes me think of the men I knew when I served and who later died after 9/11 during that war. They were so young and alive with life. I miss them and the good times we had.
Yes Tommy Johansson guitarist and the Hannes van Dahl on Drums have Carolean uniform Charles Xll style..cool that u see that 👁️🇸🇪❤️🇱🇺❤️🇸🇪👁️
Power
Sabaton ALWAYS makes me cry, love these guys so much.
lol i was watching another reaction to this song (old dj) and he said that steven seagull in 20 years never made a movie as good as this.
Amen!
I believe this unseen.
Love Sabaton and love your reactions. BTW did you already see the new video/song that Joakim Broden of Sabaton did with Nanowar of Steel, called "Pasadena 1994"? Thought you might like that too as you have reacted to both bands before.
That is epic!
I actually have a reaction for that ;)
what you said is absolutely true, I live in the Czech Republic. I was born in 1999, and I'm a fan of historical war technology, so I dare to say that I know the history of the First and Second World Wars quite well, and I'm quite surprised that someone around 13 years old doesn't even know who Hitler was or which nations started the First World War.
Hi, hope the guy who explaine the video see your Video and make his List of all acters/Heros/Songs
I don't remember all : a Nightwitch (or Lady of the dark) came out of the dark street and look at the planes (No bullet fly) and the RedBaron fly at endscreen and many other of Sabatons "Heros" where to see.. Hannes and Tommy wear Swedish Uniforms from the Carolus Rex album etc..
See this Video a lot and had not yet figured all out ( perhaps if i don't cry i see more)
Thanks to Sabaton and Motörhead; greetings from NW-Army-Germany and SabatonFan
THis song and the final words , are exactly why europe is so mindfull of getting in to other wars . as the past 2000 years they have been close to whiping each other out on the continent , This is why the European union must succeed as its the only thing that is holding the primal beast of war contained . almost 80 year it kept the monster under lock an key , and it should never be allowed to escapape as humanity would end if it is unleashed ones more.
Beautiful, strong and emotional song and video. 😀🇸🇪
Love and respect your reactions
Happy seeing this
Loving U for your reaction. Thanks for your answer last week. U are a big man. Greetings from Germany.
Haha, I'm definitely a big man as I need to lose some weight. All jokes aside... I saw you commented more as well but I have not had a lot of time to go through all comments.
And you are most welcome for both reaction and answer. I try to answer all if I can but it is getting more challenging ;). Which is a blessing and a curse. It means the channel is growing but I do not want to get a disconnect with those watching...
Anyways... Hope to see you around :)
First time in history. The entire north are apart of the same allegiance OFFICIALLY. From Iceland and Greenland to Finland and Svalbard
Like they said in Fallout, war never changes
My grandfather (who was from Accrington in Lancashire) was part of the Accrington Pals, a neighbourhood volunteer unit, and one of the 350 from that regiment wounded at Serre during the Battle of the Somme; 235 of his comrades were killed in the first half hour of the battle. He lost his leg and went home with “shell shock” (PTSD). My father never knew him as he died ten years later at the age of 31 when Dad was only 2. His death from pneumonia was a direct result of the mustard gas he inhaled in 1916.
The only thing I disagree with in this is when Joakim sings, “Now no one remembers our name.” His name was William Lambert. 💔RIP
Great reaction. Everyrime I see a reaction to this I end of crying as well. Fuckin powerful.
You commented on how they (war) is still going on and it reminded me of SHADOW OF INTENT's "From Ruin...We Rise" which also is about the atrocities of war and some of the final lyrics go... "As far as the eyes can see
If you saw it you wouldn't believe it
When will these fucking wars end?"
...and it breaks me down. For innocence lost, the sorrow and suffering people endure and how we cant stop senseless wars.
Bardzo się wzruszyłam....❤
It is beyond me too. Best wishes from Germany. Today we can look at each others face and call each other friend... if we choose to do so. So, have a nice day, my friend.
It was Tina Guo playing the cello under the credits.
Metallica did a song that's connected with WWI. It's called One. You should check it out. Great reaction brother.
"War is where the young and stupid are tricked by the old and bitter into killing each other." -Niko Bellic, a video game character. Pretty sad when even a video game understands how war works.
J. R. R. Tolkien was at the somme and he wrote that at the end of the first day all of his friends except for maybe one were killed.
This made my cry as much as watching Gallipoli did.
JRR TOLKIEN the creator of the Lord of the rings fought at the somme, and at Passcheindel
He wrote that in the first day all of his friends maybe except one were dead.😢
So many good comments to your great reaction already.. let me just add, the cello part was a cooperation with the amazing Tina Guo again, who already joined for "Steel Commanders" and at Wacken 2019 for "Swedish Pagans" ..she is an amazing artist, too...
Niesamowite przeżycie......oddalsbym wszystko żeby w txm momencie być w śró fens❤ die Best
There is no shame in crying watching this video. My family was lucky - all 19 that went off to WWI came back. The stories that have been handed down are horrific. They just went off to France and Belgium without a thought and look what their efforts have given us? Definitely not a country fif for heroes.
The Western Front was in many parts literally a sea of dead, every exploding artillery shell spraying blooded mud and guts around and to the the trenches. Not to mention free use of poison gases that are horrible even if you just saw the effects on the enemy soldiers. And there was no mental health services back then.
No wonder it left even those who made it back alive wrecks.
That’s truly some kind of miracle right there. ❤
I love SAbaton they mace sure they are remembered
I still tear up watching this.
There was estimated to be about 250.000 total under age soldiers in the British army by the end of ww1. the youngest soldier at the Somme was Sidney Lewis. Age 12
Yeah pretty much all of us listening to the video premiering all cried, The battallions recruited for this Battle and to raise the number of soldiers for the british army, were called the Pals battalions, they all got the announcement refering to being allowed to fight alongside their friends and family from their hometowns. They believed that it would not only increase the numbers of recuits but also help with morale and steadying the lines sort of speak, in the end they were thrown to the german lines forgetting the fact they had scantly faced any combat after training, their casualties were so high that there were instances of desertions being higher, in the end they dismantled the battalions and put in different units to stem the damage. It is also a tribute to all the soldiers who fought in battles of long ago, regardless to where they were from or for whom they fought. Lemmy did a beautiful song about it and Sabaton brought all that emotion to the cover.
Viking Reacts: The uniform is from what i beleive is the Swedish Caroleans from like the 1700 when they play the drums and gitarr in this video
I think it is what they wore in Livgardet...
@@VikingReacts You are absolutely correct! :)
its a cello by tina guo who is a genius with that instrument and is seen in steel commander. the instrument at the end.
Great to see you back! Wonderful reaction, sad but true.
"I love the machinery, but i hate that we need them" now thats a correct way to explain that one loves guns, but just the engineering behind it, not what they are actually used for. We throw balls at cans on fairs..thats aimed destruction for fun..its in guys instincts..kids with slingshots or firecrackers. But aiming at something living is another shoe. To make that move first, doesnt come from the machinery.
Lemmy would be proud of his kids. RIP legend!
