Remember that the Colt 1911 pistol only carried 7 rounds in WW1, so when GSGT Daly shot the machine gun commander and took 14 prisoners he did it with 6 bullets left in his gun
He was a 1stSGT in WWI not GSGT
My apologies to him, certainly not my place to take a stripe from him
It is GYSGT, not GSGT.
@@KNETTWERX in this particular case it is OGSGT
A 1911 service pistol holds 8 rounds. Seven in the mag, one in the chamber. Point is still well made.
You guys gotta check out his video on Joe Medicine Crow "The Last War Chief"
I second this!
I will absolutely third this!
YESSS! I fourth it!
Great video. Haven't seen many reactions to that video. But that's one of his best imo.
Yes this is one to watch
I taught Marine Corps history to recruits and permanent personnel at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego, California from 1967 to 1970. Dan Daly was just one of many Marine Corps hero's I covered during that time.

Thank you for your service.
I was discharged at MCRD San Diego in 1967. I had always thought that the "live forever" line was attributed to Smedley Butler, in the Philippines, I believe.
Thank you for your service. Carlos Hathcock is another one who should never be forgotten.
That’s a stupid law. If you win it 10 times, then you win it 10 times, there shouldn’t be a limit. I didn’t know about that now I’m all freaking out for no reason. 😂
Thank you for your service, History is extremely important so we have a lesser chance to not make the same mistakes
Cracks me up that I’m seeing a ton of Brits watching Fat Electrician.
Why
Usually, the Medal of Honor is awarded posthumously.
the number of times I have watched people react to this and the Indiana Jones clip goes right over their head makes me sad. Seriously, everyone should watch the OG Indiana Jones trilogy, it's a classic!
The story behind that particular IJ clip is funny too actually. Not many people know Harrison had the flu that day and that scene was supposed to be a long drawn out fight, but because of HF's sickness, they shortened it.
One of the funniest scenes in cinematic history
As a Marine, Dan Daly is a legend. As well as the 5th and 6th Marine Corps Regiments.
France awarded the Fourragere to the Marines and Sailors of the 5th and 6th Marine Regiments in 1918 for their heroism and bravery in the battles of Belleau Wood, Soissons, and Château-Thierry during World War I. To this day, the 5th and 6th Marine Regiments are the only Marine Corps units authorized to wear the Fourragere. This ceremony marks a rare occurrence, in that an infantry unit that is originally from neither of those regiments received the coveted Fourragere.
The U.S. government needs to give Dan Daly his MOH
I believe they have since revised the rules, and a person can earn more than one medal of honor. I honestly think they should give Dan Daly the third one on principle alone.
Nope. Still only one.
@@kevintemple245 The Fat Electrician isn't entirely correct about the MOH rules. No modern recipients have more than one medal because of laws passed for the Army in 1918, and for the Navy in 1919, which stipulated that "no more than one medal of honor . . . shall be issued to any one person," although subsequent awards were authorized by issuance of bars or other devices in lieu of the medal itself. The prohibition on double awards did not technically apply to the double recipients of WWI because they received Medals of Honor from different services, which meant the same medals were not duplicated and had independent statutory authority.
Later, in 1927, President Coolidge issued an executive order that forbade issuing more than one federal decoration for the same action, a policy that continues through the present time. The statutory bar on issuing multiple medals was finally repealed in the FY2014 defense bill, at the request of the Office of the Secretary of Defense, meaning that recipients can now be issued more than one medal rather than simply receiving a device for subsequent awards. However, no more than one medal may be issued for the same action.
They did make a movie about the boxer rebellion, it is called “55 days at Peking” starring Charlton Heston and David Niven.
You should checkout his video of US Marines vs. an A.I. robot
The first time I saw that one I almost pissed myself from laughing.
Both Dan Daly and Smedley Butler each need their own TV series.
Don't forget Lewis B. Puller (Chesty) who had a glorious Career also. Good Night Chesty where ever you are!
American here; thanks for your appreciation. Don't forget that our Marines got their start in 1775, and had the sterling example of your own Royal Marines to aim for. Dan Daly suspects we may have matched or surpassed. Regards.
British MI6 also helped the US create the OSS, which evolved into the CIA.
yeah the Marine Crops is older than the Country they serve itself. and what is even funnier: the marines were created in a bloody Tavern :)
@@raikbarczynski6582yup, almost as old as the coast guard …
FYI: the clip of the swordsman getting shot was from the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark. If you've not check it out before, you should.
F*** the gangster there is ONE word for this man "BADASS"
I love chubby electron guy. ❤
" Quack Bang Out"
Can't wait for you to meet The Limping Lady and SSgt Reckless two ladies who truly made history and Victory for US.
These days typically if you get awarded the MOH, you typically are retired from Active Duty effectively ending any chance of repeating the chance to earn that medal again. Personally, since I am friends with a MOH recipient I could be biased and do think they should be retired and given more than the medal and about $1400 per month pension (that's just for getting that medal, doesn't include their potential retirement of their rank that they earned and possible disability pensions cause let's face it, normally if you earn the MOH it's usually given to the next of kin, so if you are alive, we owe them far more than we give them). It's similar to the Victoria Cross, I served in the Canadian Army 1st CSOR before joining the US Army 18F (Green Berets 19th Group).
The Boxer Rebellion is a fascinating part of history.
Nobody cares about fair in combat. If you’re fighting a fair fight, your tactics suck.
You never want a fair fight.
Your reaction to the Indiana Jones clip tells me yall have never seen Indiana Jones lol Must see!
I've seen ALL of The Fat Electrician's videos. Glad you have started covering them. One of my favorite videos of his is about a Marine horse named Reckless lol. Too dang funny.
We sang his name as we ran in boot camp at Parris Island. Alot of his personel effects are on display at the Museum of the Marine Corps in Quentico, Virginia.
Quantico, Virginia…
Semper Fi and OOHRAH!!
Did he ever settle down and have a family?
War of 1812 Battle of New Orleans was fought after the war officially ended, but neither side got the memo .
Christianity in china strated centuries ago ... You can find Christian martyrs as well same in korea , Japan etc , Some african countries as Egipt , palestine , Siria etc were Christians before the creation of islám ...
In ww2 japan invaded china because chin and usa had open bussines china was developing the country with América before Japanese...
The movie 55 Days In Peking (1963) covers this battle. Several countries, including Britain, were involved in defending the ligation.
The machine gun wasn't a modern mechanism...it was an 1895 Browning "Potato Digger".
Great stuff. Thanks guys. BTW, at 7:30 mark was a scene (guys with swords aren’t bulletproof) from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Seemed like you hadn’t seen it before. You definitely should.
The Fat Electrician is a great storyteller. You guys should take a bunch of his shorter videos about military equipment and weapons and react to those videos too, which are equally great
I never knew so many quotes etc came from him "retreat hell".. "come on you sob do you wanna live forever" .. and devil dogs...im not even finished with the video yet 😂
The “Retreat, Hell” that came a USMC Captain, not from Daly, but he’s still a total badass and total legend among modern Marines. Along with Smedley Butler, John Basilone and Chesty Puller. Along with many others.
@@PlastikdoomCarlos Hitchcock
what? Alfred had a brother? crazy
@@ChuckHuffmaster
There's a different retreat hell quote from Korea. That one is "Retreat Hell, we're just advancing in another direction"
@@m2hmghb yep, that one was Chesty Puller, the most decorated Marine of all time, he was in command of 1st MarDiv in Korea.
Awesome reaction. So glad you found TFE. And so glad you kept it playing to the end so that you didn't miss his fun outros. He does those often. :)
After you get the Medal, they remove you from the theatre of war you served in. I have known 3 medal of honor awardees. I am privileged to have known them.
It was just poor timing that Dan Daly was in line to get a 3rd Medal Of Honor that the U.S. was in the middle of reevaluating who deserves to get the medal or not. Right before America entered WW1, the U.S. reviewed all previous recipients and had revoked a little over 900 medals because they were not deemed worthy of the medal. A large part of this was because they wanted to establish the MoH as the highest medal that can be bestowed and revoke any that didn't meet up to this standard. When the medal was first given during the American Civil War it was given out like candy. 864 were given to a single regiment as an incentive to reenlist and stay to protect the capitol after the Confederate invaded Pennsylvania and left the capitol undermanned. 309 of the 864 volunteered to stay and the rest went home. They ended up only needing to stay for 4 days but because of an error the names of the volunteers was lost. The War Department still gave the medal to the entire 864 men even though a majority didn't volunteer and none of them fought during this time. I don't think they didn't give Dan Daly a 3rd medal because they were trying to be mean but more to just establish how hard it is to receive it during this crackdown on the MoH recipients.
Also November 10th is the Marine Corps Birthday, while the 11th is Memorial Day plus Dan Daly's Birthday.
SEMPER FI
I know a Staff Sargent that got wounded in 2 different fire fights miles apart at two different times of day, but because of the rules only got awarded 1 Purple Heart Medal. His team was on the way out of the fire base to do a patrol. As they were leaving the wire they were attacked. He got shot through the meaty part of the shoulder. It wasn't a really bad wound. Later on in the evening he volunteered to go back to duty and got rotated into another patrol team. They got about 2 miles out and got attacked again and he was shot through his larynx. He got sent home. His commander put him in for 2 Purple Hearts but He only received 1, because the rule is only 1 Purple Heart in a day
I believe one guy in Vietnam got two in the same firefight because he got wounded and evaced, but the helicopter got shot down and he had to fight overnight until more could come in. He was wounded again later that night.
There were a total of 100,000-300,000 men on the Boxer side of the Boxer Rebellion
You can technically be awarded the MoH more than once, but you only get the physical medal once. This came about due to many MoH recipients being awarded the MoH from the Army and the Marines for the same action. That is what that law was intended to correct. Oh and the different branches all have different MoH medals, same ribbon color but the actual medal is a different design.
He's talking about the CMH. That's the big one
@@hellhound1389 Yeah I know and in the military it's just MoH, not what you typed.
@@tjkj-om9oi Technically, only the Navy, not the Marines, has its own design separate from the Army and Air Force. The Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard all get the same MOH design from the Navy. Also, as of 2014, recipients can now be issued more than one medal rather than simply receiving a device for subsequent awards. However, no more than one medal may be issued for the same action.
As a U.S. Marine, I take pride in the many courageous Marine that built our legacy and set an example for other Marines to aspire to. Dan Daly and John Basilone were two of my favorite examples and inspirations.

Robert Smalls (April 5, 1839 - February 23, 1915) was an American politician, publisher, businessman and maritime pilot. Born into slavery in Beaufort, South Carolina, he freed himself, his crew and their families during the American Civil War by commandeering a Confederate transport ship, CSS Planter, in Charleston harbor, on May 13, 1862, and sailing it from the Confederate-controlled waters of the harbor to the U.S. blockade that surrounded it. He then piloted the ship to the Union-controlled enclave in Beaufort-Robert Smalls (April 5, 1839 - February 23, 1915) was an American politician, publisher, businessman and maritime pilot.

Got to love the Marines/Devil Dogs
wait...was that reaction to the Indiana Jones clip indicating that you guys havent seen Raiders of the Lost Ark?
I really hope you get to the one about bayonet hill its amazing
The only reason people have never heard of Dan Daly, is that he fought against Chinese "Boxer Bands" who had the intention of killing and driving out all foreigners from China in 1900 and then years later, in 1915, he fought against Cacos insurgents who were former Haitian slaves attempting to overthrow the Haitian government after years of unrest and destabilization.
The Heroism of an American Marine fighting against ethnic foreign civilians does not fit the narrative the powers that be want to embrace. So forget about the two Medals of Honor awarded to him.
As a retired Marine 93-2006 I definitely enjoy y'all's reactions & while serving all Marines strived to be like SgtMaj. Daley. Semper Fi & Ooorah
As a Marine I highly recommend you guys react to the Fat Elections video about Sgt Reckless. Another amazing and inspiring video about a forgotten Marine war hero.
Also the one to start gender reveals 😂
Check out the real life star fox Sir Douglas Bader it's a British story I think you'll like it.
I’m very proud of and in awe of one of my gx6(?)-grandfathers who was one of the very first American marines, serving on the Continental Frigate “Deane” in the Revolutionary War. I wish so much that he had left an account of his service.
Hello Beesleys, " The Fat Electrician " knows some stories.
Brings back memories of Marine Corps history at Parris Island back in 1977.
Dan Daly and Smedley Butler were 2 Marines who were awarded the Medal of Honor, the nations highest award for Valor, twice.
YEAH!!! We’re not taught to retreat but to move forward… we bite all the time anywhere we’re sent…👍🏼😉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
the most gangester politician ever video is even better nned that reaction
My favorite Marine. Sorry Chesty Puller
The movie 55 Days in Peking is about the Boxer rebellion.
For a better view of the Boxer War, and why Dan Daly got his first MoH, Project Gutenberg has a book titled "Behind the scenes in Peking" discussing the nearly monthlong seige and attacks on the western embassies.
While I don't agree with him getting screwed out of his third medal, for Americans the Medal of Honor is like being knighted in Britain except only the military can earn it.
They have an equivalent medal, The Victoria Cross. Jeremy Clarkson did a documentary about it that is very good.
@@RyanAcidhedzMurphy I know about the Victoria Cross, but it's not quite the same. We don't have royalty, so the Medal of Honor is the highest honor any American can achieve. No calls you Sir, but all military and patriotic Americans will salute and/or honor you, even if they don't like you.
The reason behind limiting the amount of Medal of Honar awards was because individuals would not stand out. They did not want it to become a token (participation) award. Only the most deserved achieve it to this day -not every participant.
Please do “Americas War horse Marine” next!
4:43 not ver righteous nor harmonious
" America's war horse Sgt Reckless " is one of my favorites
She was the goodest of horses.
Awesome reaction I absolutely love TFE
I take that back that was a spellcheck mistake. Archibald Henderson was considered the grand old man of the Marine Corps, not the grandfather.
That's amazing, I share a birthday with Dan Daly. What a great man and thank you for watching this video. This was awesome
Just remember that John Chapman has 2 medals of honor from 2002 war in Afghanistan. So its still possible to receive it multiple times. What a badass these men are though. ❤
U.S. Marines are still referred to as Devil Dogs to this day.
This one is a good one
The comment that Dan Danly made “I only quit firing because they quit coming.”, reminds me of something similar that Polk County,Florida Sheriff Grady Judd responded to a reporter who asked Sheriff Grady Judd “why sho_t the suspect 68 times?”, and the Sheriff simply responded “because we ran out of b_llets.” Sheriff Grady Judd has warned any cri_inals that “if you sho_t at any of my Deputies, we will sho_t you grav_yar_ dea_.” You can watch his press conferences and he speaks honestly and in plain terms without any apol_gies.
Do the chicken Nuclear bomb episode by the Fat Electrician. Involve the British military!!
TFE- Toys for Tots!
Dan Daily's birthday is definitely November 11th, America's Veterans Days!
Hi guys! The point of communications being much slower accounts for some interesting events in U.S. history, such as in the War of 1812 the battle of New Orleans being fought 2 weeks after the war was over, or in the US Civil War the last battle being fought in Texas over two weeks after the south surrendered.
“Raiders of the Lost Ark”…one of my absolutely all time favorite movies!!
Harrison Ford?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Merica baby, salute the marines and dan daly. 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
For the record on the MOH it was rescinded in 2014.
No one alive has been awarded two Medals of Honor; there was a regulation from 1918/1919 until 2014 that prohibited multiple awards.
The NDAA of FY2014 rescinded that restriction, so it's now possible. The uniform regulation from the DoDM directs the wear as follows:
3.6. SUBSEQUENT AWARDS. A separate MOH is presented to an individual for each succeeding act that justifies award. A Service member awarded more than one MOH will always wear a separate MOH or separate MOH ribbon to correspond with the number of awards received.
The actual presentation would likely be similar to the initial ceremony.
Past Heros, Smedley Butler, Dan Daley, Sargeant York, Audie Murphy, Jesus, the Christ...Only one man of peace was a "True hero!"
React to Michigan vs Alabama Rose Bowl highlights!! You won’t be disappointed! 😉
When a recipient receives their medal, it comes with an understanding.
You went above and beyond the call of duty at great personal risk to yourself. And you will ALWAYS do so.
Winning more than one is literally pointless. It is expected that recipients of the MOH will CONTINUE to go above and beyond the call of duty. Because that's who they are. And when you have a high number of recipients doing so after being KIA, it rings very hollow to their families if you walk around with 4 of them.
Imagine if the Olympics had that rule...
Saying "you've already received a gold medal, you can't get anymore".
WTF!!!
YES!!!! The Fat Electrician has so many great videos keep it up!!!
He stacked ALL the bodies by himself... that's every jarhead's wet dream. Private Dynamite saw it and went, "Lucky!"
Actually Eisenhower didn't originate the quote either - it was first recorded in a 1911 article called "Stub Ends of Thought" by a relatively unknown writer named A.G. Lewis
Just to add to the shenanigans...10 Nov is the U.S. Marine Corps' Birthday. Not a single Marine is sober for the first two week of November
Thank you both for pausing the video while you talk, instead of talking over the video. Whatever you both want to say is important for us to hear, just as the video is also important😀.
I have a ton to say about this. While Nick does a great job at a very brief overview, he leaves out, forgets and glosses over so much. I’m not even a historian and could tear apart this summary, I get that’s not his goal, but as. US Marine. It is often time infuriating to see it so simplified and dumbed down, leaving out so many important factors. With tons of minor mistakes on top of it all. Th battle in China. He wasn’t alone, his unit from the shock actually found and brought back all the Marines, so 1200 effective’s. Overall, at the climax of the battle, they ym had to fight off 55’000 Chinese rebels and they didn’t just have a couple guns. Yes, while many of their guns were old to ancient, this is still the age of black powder and one the biggest and richest military’s were using smokeless powder. They had limited small cannon, with Kailey loaders and single shot rifles from 30 years old to barely a few years old. The end of the battle seen Dan Daly restoring hundreds of rebels by himself, as all other teams on his side were knocked out. Effectively or dead. He preserved. Killing 200 by him self, he didn’t beat 200, he killed 200, for sure, right here, right now, their corpses are on the ground, dead, no debate. Out of hundreds to even a thousand strong assault against his position. He mowed them down, and when to his rifle, bayonet, grenades. Like it was normal, everyday office work. He utterly wrecked them. And thought nothing of it. Yes, he was using his rifle and bayonet in close quarters, against hundreds strong in an assault. Until he could reload his colt 1895 “potato dogger” machine gun, the. Keep mowing them down. Until he stacked up 200 dead in front of his position. Just him, by himself, he is a god of war and legend.
Most people think Marines are these big, athletic men with unshakable courage.
It's actually every size man in the book. There's a few rotund types. But they go to "Porkchop Platoon" to get fit...
Most are pretty athletic. We get wrestling champs and football players. Chicago Juniors Racquetball champ. Martial artists. On and on. Any sport you can think of like Soccer was a big one as well. If you want a challenge? Join the Marines. You'll probably find out that High School and the Marines are on different levels. Then add in the entire USA. Not just a few school districts in MN. and you have a nice competition in the making. From there? We all push ourselves beyond what we thought was even possible. That's where the unshakable courage comes from. Nobody trains harder than the US military. Nobody in the Military trains harder than the Marines. There's Rangers and Seals. Rangers are Army Marines basically. Seals are Marines who do a whole other different job. Seals and Marines ride together. Have Dept. of the Navy on the paychecks etc. We simply do different tasks.
Marine Corps Mount Rushmore would be Dan Daily, Smedly Butler, and Chesty Puller. Fourth slot I leave open for debate
If you react to this guy again, I’d highly recommend the 77th division video. It’s pretty long though.
Hyper aggression is one of the most intimidating acts of war. It is taught extensively in th US military. NEVER resign yourself to defense if you have the ability to take offense. The same is true in any combat, even if you break it down to the level of a street fight. I'm 5'10" 135lbs 43 years old, and recently subdued (without hurting him), a 24 year old that had both height and weight on me. By being prepared and watching his body movements and the intention in his eyes, I was able to respond accordingly.
TFE got one thing wrong about that rule stating a soldier can only be awarded one Medal of Honor. Back in the day, the US had seperate Medals of Honor, one for the Army and one for the Navy. And what was happening was that some men were being awarded two Medals of Honor for the same action. The law that TFE mentions is makes it so that there’s only one Medal of Honor that encompasses all the branches. That being said, a USMC official did state that “no living Marine should be awarded three Medals of Honor.”
Fun American military history fact: the Battle of New Orleans took place one month after the War of 1812 was over due to the slow spread of news back then...
Harrison Ford and Raiders of the Lost Ark!!! Now there's a movie you need to check out!!!!
They were called "devil dogs" or "Hell Hounds" because when one got mad they all got mad and attacked with the ferocity of nazi german shepherds.
Do the “Most Gangster Politician In American History” by far electrician next please!
I recommend the story of Sergeant Reckless by The Fat Electrician 🥰
You need to watch The Sand Pebbles. STEVE MCQUEEN
Ok guys I've watched about 4 of your reaction videos on the fat electrician and I got to tell you to please stop talking over Nick don't mind all the commentary just pause first
I come from a proud Marine Corp family. My great grandfather, my grandfather, my father, and my brother.
You two need to watch that movie with that clip in it."Raiders of the Lost Ark"
It is a must watch if you guys live on Earth.
Love your videos keep up the awsome content you should do the story of the real starfox ....... You are welcome
Please keep in mind that most people who earned the Medal of Honor only receive it posthumously. I think it's more in honor of them that it's only allowed once. It's a freak glitch in the matrix that Daly survived standing up and charging into no man's land, let alone solo mow the boxer lawn, or clear the Haitian Jungle without a scratch. Dude was freakishly charmed, and he used it well. But I believe, because I'm a good person who always hopes others have good intention, that the politicos were considering those who died to earn theirs when they made their decision. You have achieved the highest honor and survived. That is the apex, anything else is superfluous.
On one hand, I can agree that SGTMAJ Daly should have gotten that third MOH however, on the other hand it may have started to cheapen the purpose of the MOH. My opinion of the first MOH he got was that he shouldn't have. He was tasked with guarding those civilians back then and that's what he did. Ya shouldn't get praised for each time you do your job. The second time I agree he should have gotten it and he should have gotten it for his actions at Bella wood.
You can win more than one medal of honor. They just give you a little dangly thing that hangs under it, instead of a whole new medal. It looks silly in your dress uniform, to have a bunch of that same medal. It makes you look like a foreign dictator, if it's just covered with the most elaborate and ornate medals. This rule keeps the uniforms crisp.
