In a great twist of life is stranger than fiction the movie doesn't even cover the "greatest" feats when the director didn't think the audience would believe one man could accomplish everything.
The Chorus, "The crosses grow on Anzio, where hell is six feet deep,That death does wait there's no debate," is from a poem written by Major Murphy. His autobiography "To Hell and Back" has a double meaning since it refers to going to war and coming home, but his struggles with PTSD. Major Murphy was one of the first men and heroes to openly talk about as well as his struggles with what we now call PTSD.
"Audie Murphy rose to national fame as the most decorated U.S. combat soldier of World War II. Among his 33 awards and decorations was the Medal of Honor, the highest military award for bravery that can be given to any individual in the United States of America, for "conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty." He also received every decoration for valor that his country had to offer, some of them more than once, including 5 decorations by France and Belgium. Credited with either killing over 240 of the enemy while wounding and capturing many others, he became a legend within the 3rd Infantry Division. Beginning his service as an Army Private, Audie quickly rose to the enlisted rank of Staff Sergeant, was given a "battle field" commission as 2nd Lieutenant, was wounded three times, fought in 9 major campaigns across the European Theater, and survived the war. During Murphy's 3 years active service as a combat soldier in World War II, Audie became one of the best fighting combat soldiers of this or any other century. What Audie accomplished during this period is most significant and probably will never be repeated by another soldier, given today's high-tech type of warfare. The U.S. Army has always declared that there will never be another Audie Murphy. At the time of his death in 1971 (plane crash) Audie Murphy was only given a combined total of 1 minute and 30 seconds of news time by the major television news networks ABC, CBS, and NBC. On October 29, 2013 news affiliates of the same major networks would devote nearly 2 minutes each to Audie Murphy when Governor Rick Perry posthumously presented the Texas Legislative Medal of Honor to Audie Murphy".

Thanks for reacting to the greatest history teachers in the world. Joakim Broden the Sabaton lead singer has said this is one of his favorite Sabaton songs. Audi Murphy lived an awesome life and overcame a lot, starting with his father abandoning them, forcing Murphy to drop out of school to support the family. A small man, Murphy was turned down by the Marines and Navy when he tried to enlist after Pearl Harbor. he was actually underage when the Army accepted him. His first commander wanted to send him home but Murphy convinced him he could perform the missions required. He went on to perform acts of bravery that most would never believe. As shown, he singlehandedly beat PTSD and went on to be a movie star. he died in a plane crash just shy of his 46th birthday. Great reaction to a fabulous song about one of the real heroes in the history of humankind.
@@reliantncc1864 You have to understand the generation he was born in. They went through the Depression, then into a war. The feeling then was you solved your own problems. I saw that in my dad (155 Long Tom artillery crew) and even my mom who had a lot of tragedies in life. They never really talked about their emotions, they just dealt with them and moved forward. maybe they had the right idea.
So this song is about Audi Murphy with the message aimed at PTSD BUT the song only cover his time while fighting in Italy with the 3rd Inf. Div esp fighting around Anzio . some of the footage used in the video is of Audi playing himself in his movie "Too Hell and Back" the 1 thing they got wrong on this video is the guy in the room the pistol shown is a modern Glock pistol, Audi kept his war time 1911a1 pistol with him at all times even when on set doing films .
This song hits hard and is a needed reminder. Thanks for the reaction Schnell. I encourage everyone to read the description to get links to support both the artist as well as Schnell Jordan.
In the early days of what was called shell shock (now PTSD), nobody could possibly imagine how some of these heroes suffered. There was no real understanding of how to deal with it, what therapies were effective. I saw Saving Private Ryan in the theater with some WWII vets. My grandfather was one of them. He fought in Stalingrad against the Nazi forces on the side of the Red Army. Wounded shortly after arriving, he saw enough that it shook him for the rest of his life. When we saw that movie, he had a panic attack and had to leave during the beach assault in the beginning of the film. The other two vets left shortly after. It was just too real, and brought back feelings they buried for decades. The human mind is as fragile as it is complex.
many of the lyric's come from Audi Murphy's Poem - THE CROSSES GROW ON ANZIO Oh, gather 'round me, comrades; and listen while I speak Of a war, a war, a war where hell is six feet deep. Along the shore, the cannons roar. Oh how can a soldier sleep? The going's slow on Anzio. And hell is six feet deep. Praise be to God for this captured sod that rich with blood does seep. With yours and mine, like butchered swine's; and hell is six feet deep. That death awaits there's no debate; no triumph will we reap. The crosses grow on Anzio, where hell is six feet deep. . . . Audie Murphy, 1948
A reaction to follow up on this would be watch the movie "to hell and back". Then to know he did much more than what's portrayed in the movie. The director cut from the movie because he knew people wouldn't believe it.
I am from England and my late mum was a fan of the legendary Audie Murphy. BRITISH SABATON FAN 💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🏴🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Thank GOD I never had to experience being deployed in war! I can't imagine the hunting memories! Schnell I always love your reactions as your so positive and upbeat, its a joy to watch! Home Free "BUTTS MEDLEY" will make you LOL please react! peace
I've read that in the mid 1960's he recognized that he'd become dependent on a number of drugs and alcohol to cope with PTSD, so he told his foreman (he owned a ranch by then) that he'd be gone a few days. He found a motel, paid upfront for something like 10 days, and said to the desk clerk don't check on me, no matter what you hear from my room, leave me alone. He locked himself in and went cold turkey, battled his demons for the 10 days and walked out, showered and shaved, and clean of chemical dependency. I'd bet this is what the music video has taken artistic license depicting. He became what we'd call today a PTSD awareness advocate there after.
Greate reaction to one of my new bands. But as a Swede, I have to recommend a song in our language. "En livstid i krig" in English "A lifetime in war", it's about when Sweden was seen as a great power and was at war. Don't forget the subtitle
He stilled suffered of PTSD for many, many years after the war! The nightmares is still there and comes and goes! You never really get ridden of them, fully!
You should react to Tommy Johansson The leadguitarist in Sabaton He have his own youtubechannel with a lot of amacing cowers A real rabbitwhole His voice amacing and the range is cracy He is an multiinstrumentalist and play all the instrument himself He is cracy talented He is also the guy behind a lot of Floors cowers Maybe All I wants for christmas is you Powermetalversion
Audie Murphy-runt of the litter, most decorated war hero, soft spoken kind hearted gentleman, American hero actor in war movies, and westerns, killed in a plane crash way too young, RIP Major!
You should also check out "En livstid i Krig" (th-cam.com/video/WBs3G1PvyfM/w-d-xo.html). The song is in their native tongue Swedish so make sure that you have subtitles on. It is a very powerful song.
@Schnell Jordan Reactions, did you already cover Sabaton's "The Christmas Truce?" I could swear you did🤔 the aria on the credits alone is divine. Cheers!
Please don't take this the wrong way, but the music playing, when you're talking, is both intrusive and unnecessary. You talking is good enough, you don't need that distraction :)
I knew a guy in San Diego who actually lived aboard Audie Murphy's boat. Had proof and everything. Sadly it was so run down that it was beyond saving and was demolished. He was trying to get it preserved actually but couldn't

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Yes yes yes I will
Probably don’t listen to “I was only 19”
Audie Murphy later stared in a movie about him called To Hell and Back playing himself.
In fact those movie clips are indeed Audie Murphy in that film
In a great twist of life is stranger than fiction the movie doesn't even cover the "greatest" feats when the director didn't think the audience would believe one man could accomplish everything.
@@andrewwebb3248 So true. Murphy's life is a truly extraordinary one
@@andrewwebb3248 But they did include how he earned the Medal.

“How close are they to your position?”
“Just hold the phone and I’ll let you talk to one of the bastards!!!”

He was a true hero in his actions in the war, but he might have done even more good when it comes to helping others who struggled with PTSD.

And I love the homage to the Westerns Murphy starred in by the opening and bridge.

THE CROSSES GROW ON ANZIO
Oh, gather 'round me, comrades; and
listen while I speak
Of a war, a war, a war where hell is
six feet deep.
Along the shore, the cannons roar. Oh
how can a soldier sleep?
The going's slow on Anzio. And hell is
six feet deep.
Praise be to God for this captured sod that
rich with blood does seep.
With yours and mine, like butchered
swine's; and hell is six feet deep.
That death awaits there's no debate;
no triumph will we reap.
The crosses grow on Anzio, where hell is
six feet deep.
. . . Audie Murphy, 1948
I was looking for this
PTSD is hell of an illness. I got it after an accident belive it or not. For months after i couldnt go out if it was raining. Realy weird
Thanks from sweden on your reaction on sabaton 😍
A reaction to follow up on this would be watch the movie "to hell and back". Then to know he did much more than what's portrayed in the movie. The director cut from the movie because he knew people wouldn't believe it.
Also reading his autobiography! So much in depth and heartbreaking!
His writing is amazing!!

In your reaction to Last stand you said their concerts must be amazing. Watch Ghost division live, get your assumptions confirmed ;)

Hell isnt 6 feet deep its as thin as your eye lids closing at night when you can sleep.

He was 19yrs old when he won the mph can you imagine anyone doing that today?
