Definitely meant World War 2 at
A little known fact about the Warsaw uprising is, that at the time the Hungarian army's 1st cavalry was assinged as a reserve to the german 9th army with a force of around 25 000 under the command of gen. Béla Lengyel (lengyel in hungarian means polish). From the start of the uprising the hungarian forces refused to aid the germans to stop the uprising. The hungarian soldiers refused to fire on polish posts and they gave first aid to the wounded, free passage to supplies and provided information to the Polish Underground Army. They warned the polish that there will be a german counter offensive in the Sluzew - Wilanów area, as a result of this the polish reinforced their positions causing heavy losses to the germans. At the last days of the uprising with the annihilation of Kampinos group the hungarian army provided weapons, medicine and hungarian uniforms to the remainder of a polish batallion to escape to the direction ofJaktorow and Zyrardow. When the withdraval of axis forces began 500 wounded polish were evacuated with the hungarians in hungarian uniforms.
We have a saying in Poland... Blue on our flag stands for allies. And it's still very much alive.
Every year in Warsaw on 1 August at 5:00 PM ('W' Hour) alarm signals and sirens are turned on and whole city stops for one minute.
Aces in Exile covers those airmen
You should watch the live video of them performing this at Woodstock Poland (a festival in Poland now called Pol'and'Rock). Hearing the crowd of thousands shouting "Warszawo, walcz!" is incredible.
You'll love all of Sabaton's music as a historian. They make sure to verify that their lyrics are accurate by asking experts.
As I understand it the video was shot in Polen with Polish actors and one or some of the resistance commanders was the video was played by real Polish military officers. The German Commander is played by Swedish actor Peter Stormare that been in a few Hollywood Movie, German car commercials and the psychotherapist in the game Until Dawn. I also heard that a museum in Warsaw dedicate to the uprising feature this music video.
They actually have a second song that has to do with the polish resistance. It's called inmate 4859 and tells the story of witold pileki who was a very important person in this resistance (and also escaped from auschwitz at one point)
You would want to watch live version performance from Woodstock festival in Poland, definetly worth your reaction ;)
My Grandfather (92 this year) Told me alot of sad stories from that time , his father was taken in the middle of the night by SS never to be seen again , then they took him his mother and 2 brothers to concentration camp where his mother didn't even survive 1 month ( she was splitting the little food they gave them between her sons ) , sleeping conditions were terrible always cold and the bedbugs were everywhere... this is just a portion. Oh and about 8-9 years back Grandfather got to know what happend to his father ( the way he died , not his body unfortunately ) , while trying to find out where lies his father because he was trying to find him for a long time he met a guy who claimed he knew what happend because he was part of it , SS took a large group of people to a horse track or smth ( i dont know the exact name in english ) and told them to run , and the last few who are still running will survive. So the guy who told the story was one of those few , and as sad as it is the father of my grandfather didn't make it... There is much fun and epic songs and stories about the time of war , but when you hear things like that it puts all those ,,amazing'' things to a perspective. Best wishes from Poland
When I was a teenager I worked extra during summer in a nursing home and there was an elder woman there from Poland (this was in Sweden). She had some amazing stories to tell about her life and the life in Warzaw (during and just after the war). I could listen to her for hours. One thing that struck me, that I had not learned in history classes, was about the betrayal of the polish people. And she often mentioned she would never be able to forgive Churchill.
My Mom survived Warsaw Uprising. Bunch of stories she told me about it were both electrifying and terrifying.
Aces in exile then straight on to 40:1!
"Because we not begging for freedom, we fighting for it"
If anyone scrolls down enough then have some knowledge:
There's a museum in Warzaw dedicated to World War 2 and a large part of it is about the uprising. Among many personal artefacts are the armbands the resistance members wore and seeing them along with the exhibit makes it such a close and personal and intense look at history. Every one of them suddenly becomes real in a whole new way. If you even have your way past Warzaw I can only recommend visiting The Warzaw Rising Museum.
With the 'allies tourned away' line joakim is talking not about betrayal of 1939,but when teheran conferrence happened,poland was given away by the allies to stalin as sort of 'gift' to improve relations,and for poles the consequences were:communist poland for 44 years,mass murdering of polish war heroes etc.,and soviets didnt help us but watched us die,beacuse if underground polish state would win uprising,it would be underground state not soviets which would be polish rulers
There's a great book called "Diary from the Warsaw Uprising", written by a man who lived through it as a young adult. He didn't actively take part in the fighting, he was just a civilian. It does a great job of giving you polish perspective on the allies, the occupation and the soviets.
My grandfather was 14 during the invasion, he was Jewish and his father sacrificed himself to save the family, buying them critical time to escape when the Nazis showed up at their door.
