As horrific as WWI was, it occurred during an interesting time. Armies fought each other with modern weapons of war, while using outdated tactics. This was also a time when Kings and Queens still ruled in some of the countries involved. WWI is pretty much a clash between the Modern and Medieval times in a way.
***** Well, in American Civil War the south's troops got stopped by the machine guns the norths had invented. Uphill attack vs. an machine guns = no chances at all. In WW1, one British commander chose to take his troops a bit early to get ready to attack, German MG nest soldier noticed them and Germans shot tons of artillery on their poor asses.
The Napoleonic Wars used old tactics with the weapons they were designed around. Rifles were mostly in the hands of skirmishers. While bloody, they were fought with muskets and smoothbore cannon firing solid shot, not rifles and rifled cannon firing explosive shells.
@jaxxx1975 It was a campaign of several attack, and only the third and fourth made significant gain, taking the high grounds overlooking Ypres. The battle included Four Canadian division, pushing the german line at every assault and holding it, German troop retook it when it was passed to British troop, and not with Canadian defending it.
Remember the me who lie in the poppy fields of Flanders, friend and foe alike. They were ordered to fight, were betrayed, and left to drown in sweat, tears, and blood.
@jaxxx1975 I said that Canadian hold against the Gas, it was the only part of the Ypres line who didn't fell during the second battle of Ypres. You should ask yourself why German command and soldier were scared every time they heard Canadian Corp, Germans soldiers gave to Canadian Soldier the name "Sturmtrooper"
@jaxxx1975 Actually Band of Brothers is viewed from the stories of those that lived for the most part, if you actually watch it again you will see not only at the end of the episodes but half way through several of them (such as when Winters was promoted out of the company) that they were half strength several times (meaning at least 50 men were dead) and that replacements were killed alot too. Not 4-5, iirc it was closer to a hundred+ by the end in the originals and repleacements lost.
It seems to me this is one of the few movies which doesn't show American soldiers, nearly every other movie about WW1 or any other war usually shows Americans as the good guys being so heroic.
these is how wars should be fought in todays warfare. two armies one feild and one leaves or neither leave. where is the honor, glory, in todays warfare.
+gage Devaney If you read All Quiet on the Western Front, the young boys who thought they would get the honor and glory were changed when 19 of the 20 young men were six feet in the ground. There is one truth about war, it is never fair.
Yes becouse we need heavily destructive wars that are drawn out for year upon year and end in huge casualties massive amounts of damaged property and psychological trauma for most that survive yep that's the war we need
@jaxxx1975 they have casualties, this why they end up to be about ten, and it is about the battle of Passchendaele, which is a true battle, and it is very realistic when you consider Canadians won where anyone else could have won. Ypres in 1915, we hold against the German gas and following assault without gas mask. Vimy in 1917, only the Canadians managed to take the hill, Passchendaele, Canada's Hundred days, where Canadian were the spear launch into Germany's defenses.
@jaxxx1975 There were a lot of Can. soldier casualtie/deaths portrayed in this movie. The German commander in this was very kind&cool. As unimportant as this bitter victory was, it was actually the most significant victory for the allies that year of war. The Can. Commander knew the battle was worthless-the Germans were fortified on the high ground and it was muddy-but Brit. Gen. Haig forced the advance because the allies needed a symbolic victory. And they did won, but paid a heavy price.
@Scouragerules you know this is fiction based off of non fiction. its true that very few canadians held the line of passchendaele by themselves waiting for rienforcements that came way to late. it may have not been a squad but a platoon yes. it is easy to defend a trench oppose to taking one, so few could hold off many. Oh, AND THERE CANADIAN!
I love how most would think that this is un-real, the thing is, these are Canadians, they were REALLY this fucking effective during WW1. Respect form an American, to Canada.
Sean Dunaway All nations that participated were that effective, or were at point during the war. The Germans along with their allies tore up British, French, Russian troops for ages, and vice versa. From an English man.
+Wiggles I dunno, What about the Italians, they out incompetented (If that's even a word) the Austro-Hungarian Empire (which needed German help to do anything). I don't think there was a single time Italy was effective, if there was, could someone tell me.
+Alexander Vicca If you are talking about Italians in World War One, they only allied with the Central powers before the war, but when the war broke out, they joined the Allies because they favorite the most likely to win lel (Not really, they actually sided with the Triple Alliance because they thought the Central powers unfairly started a war).
WWI brought about the beginning of modern technolgy, with new technolgy a lot more soldiers died in WWII than in WWI, the germans just created more powerful and more deadly weapons than anyone could of imagine
WWII is alot more publicized, there is no doubt about that. I think one of the main things is that people feel that in that conflict there is an easier time of deciding who the bad guys are. In WWI, most people look at that now and can say that it was really a set of unfortunate circumstances (secret pacts between nations to aid one another) that ended up turning a small incident into a world shattering conflict. With WWII though, everyone focuses a great deal on the Holocaust.
The guys with the flattish helmets are Allied. Either American or British, I don't know the uniforms well enough to tell you the difference and I haven't seen the movie either. The reason the Germans weren't shooting is because they were carrying model 1898 Carbines, which are bolt action. In order to actually hit something with them they would have had to stop. Jogging over broken and muddy terrain is hard enough without trying to fire a rifle accurately at the same time.
WWI they mostly seem to forget about the Belgiums and then French. But in WWII indeed they like to forget about Canada. In the pacific it seems there were only Americans. While there were also Australians, New Zealanders, and not to forget the Dutch forces. Who had quite some battleships in that area.
one of the bloodiest and senseless battles in WW I.. a British Officer is reported to have said "my god.. what did we put these boys into..." you couldnt walk a meter in that small town without treading on the dead....
All I hear about in these comments is hating war. Another is hating countries. You do realize war and bloodshed has always been just another factor about being human, right? War and conflict is just human nature. Granted, World War one and two and many others had some sick shit that really had no point to those deaths like the holocaust, or the systematic killing of civilians just because people thought they were helping the enemy in World War one. But you honestly can't stop nor deny that there will never ease to be wars or conflict.
It is human nature to always fight. Whether great war, or small street brawl. Every human has that aggressiveness and/or anger inside them. A human will fight. To fight in self defense or to gain/prove something, it's still fighting.
fun fact about Canada in the battle of passendale, sir Arthur currie was ordered to take the village and he told Haig (the British commander and thus his boss) basically the polite version of go fuck yourself. so Haig pulled rank and made him attack the village. Currie demanded he do it "his" way then told him he would still lose 16,000 men, the final casualty count for the Canadian corps for the battle was 15,654 men dead, wounded, and missing. they took the village but in the distance between the Canadian monument and the church in the centre of the town (~200-300 metres by my best guess)10000 men went down, truly a horrific waste. anyway the more you know...
Pretty much. Truth by told, in WWI Germany was sure they would need to surrender if they did not defeat France before Russia brought it's troops to bear. Of course, plans fail and Germany found itself fighting on two fronts. The surprise? They were still able to hold their own. It was the fact that Germany had fared so impressively in the war that France and other countries crippled them with the Treaty of Versailles when the war ended. And that laid the groundwork for WWII...
Yes, the Treaty of Versailles laid the groundwork for WWII. But the two front war with France and Russia was a joke. The Russians got beat up, and, when the Bolschewiki had their revolution, signed a peace treaty (?) in 1916 or 1917.
Wizard 03 Yeah, after all he was insane enough to make some retarded choices, like trying to make huge tanks out of dwindling metal supplies etc. We can never know though, I think that's what makes the regret.
no i think its just a way they carried some soldiers who are badly wounded like its might be easier to have them like that than carry them on there backs
There isn't much to glamorize about trenches, mass slaughter, tactics so old you could carbon date them, mud, lice, filth, bodies and bits of them being blown to smaller bits, shell shock and men going mad, men tangled in barb wire, - It's rather hard to make a blockbuster movie about that
Headshot him? please, most of the men only were trained in basic combat, also WWI was the first "big" war where bolt action rifles where used, the historical context teach us that men was accustomed to line battles, that means "shoot and charge"... It isn't like a game, your heart beating hard, your hands shaking, running through enemy lines... I assure you that most of that men just shit their pants when the whistle was blown... btw sorry for my basic english.
I really like the music but one thing shocked me in this video. One side (those who attacked) didn't shoot while they were being shoot by their ennemi. It isn't really logic. (i guess that the American shoot and the german didn't shoot. I never saw the film thus i don't know which side is the american^^)
The rifles of the time are not comparable with our today. They had to stand still for the shooting. This was nearly impossible while running over broken, rough and muddy terrain, jumping over trenches and barbed wire and being pushed by all the other soldiers who were charging with you. That is why attacks in the First World War always cost such an incredibly high price for a mile.
Who said I think my country was the best in the world? Americe was the first country founded in North America, and was thus called 'America' (By everyone) Before any other country was founded. The term America for the USA predates anyone else on this continent, so your point is moot.
Napoléon Bonaparte said that,was from Gree a place called Mani. Today for example we hear about the albanins who were the soldiers of Alexander the Great,who they fought the Italians,the Germans and brought peace to Balkans (!!!) those muslims,ex ass kissers of USSR and now CIA dick suckers.May God help your country to revive and regain the lost ground. We love you here in Greece and some brave GR volunteers fought with your army.Long live Orthodox my friend.
Alexander the Great fought Italians, Germans and brought peace to Balkans?!? And the name of this most evil monster in human history is "Kissinger", not "Kisser".
Wow, wie alt bist du, das da deine Brüder starben? Bei mir war es der Ururgroßvater oder so. Naja, eigentlich gilt er nur als "vermisst". Er taucht bestimmt noch auf...aber im Ernst, am schlimmsten finde ich an dem Ganzen, dass es aus heutiger Sicht so sinnlos und bescheuert wirkt. Frankreich und Deutschland stehen sich fast näher als Deutschland und Österreich.
They never broke through, but the British and French did at the Macedonian/Salonika front and were on the way to south-east Germany and nothing could have stopped them. After their vicotry on this frontline Austro-Hungaria, the Ottomans and Bulgaria capitulated or were unable to fight on and Romania got ready to rejoin the war on Entete's side. Of course, the war was lost to Germany and it was only a matter of time before the Western Front collapsed. However, in November 1918 the front still withstood all attacks, so the date of the German capitulation was determined by the almost forgotten Salonika front (Battle of Dobro Pole). So the winners are the Britsh, French, Indians, Australians, South Africans, Greeks, Russians, Italians, Serbs, Romanians,Albanians, Portuguese, Canadians, several African nations/tribes etc. (soldiers from the colonies and some European resistance groups).This front line would deserve the name "World War" on it's own. But there was no US-American...
i watch this wideo and then i hear: many men soffered many men died and i thought: dude,why everybody forgot about ww1 i? everybody thinks only about ww ii and everybody forgets that ww i created hitler,stalin,curchill etc.
This is what happened to the attacking force in WWI. If you mass up to charge the trenches defended by machineguns over a flat surface, you will get slaughtered. Int the movie the same things happens to the forces of the Entente cordiale several times.
This is not peace, it is an armistice for 20 years.’ (Ferdinand Foch. After the Treaty of Versailles, 1919).
A mí no me queda claro aún y a algunos tampoco, van a necesitar un empujón.
Long Live Sabaton , they teach history better than any teacher could !

"In a barren field he lay - lonely soldier, unknown grave.
On his dying words he prays : Tell the world of Paschendale"
Beautiful video. Paschendaelle is dark card in history of human. So many lives losted for a handful of mud
good movie and good song...sabaton comes to tampa bay fl next month and I will be there...I like this song and iron maiden pashendale as well
no war should be forgotten, we all are people and it's stupid to fight and slaughter one another for a pease of land, money or religion!
Pante Rodrick Sadly we will always fight in brutal combat because, at the core, humans are three things: Savage, monstrous, and stupid.
Absolutamente incrível, minha preferida do Sabaton!

***** How about the Siege of St. Petersburg during that conflict?
***** Well, in American Civil War the south's troops got stopped by the machine guns the norths had invented.

+panfuza the god of war he just talking about it clam down and no one was even talking about losses you just made yourself look like a fool
Sabaton is incredible.
Yes, I totally agree with you. Winners write the history.

The battle included Four Canadian division, pushing the german line at every assault and holding it, German troop retook it when it was passed to British troop, and not with Canadian defending it.
the vid fits the song perfectly
one of the best war movies i've seen, was shocked when i realized the main guy "Paul Gross" was the guy in Due South
this is really good
Great job on this. Best video for this song on youtube.
If the British and Germans still have that kind of power The world would be different from today. Nice Vid 9999999999/1 LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE
Read the description it is written: 2008 movie Passchendaele
super..super !!!!!!!!!!
extra video Drendagon 5/5
muy buen video
Remember the me who lie in the poppy fields of Flanders, friend and foe alike. They were ordered to fight, were betrayed, and left to drown in sweat, tears, and blood.
Great video :-) Keep 'em coming!
I didn't like the movie except for the battle scene, and with Sabaton that battle is just awsome!
Sehr Gut ! Very Good !
awesome vid !!!!

Today there is a modern air force. And this air force would wipe out the entire army if it would stay in open fields.
Of the immortal gods only Death was in the fields of Passendale
It's written in the info : movie Passchendaele

@jaxxx1975 It is British humour it is Canadian history, and they are not 5 they are about a half company of the best allied soldier of the time.
WWII is alot more publicized, there is no doubt about that. I think one of the main things is that people feel that in that conflict there is an easier time of deciding who the bad guys are.

Movie?
@l33th0b0 so that makes the german win i take it?
All I hear about in these comments is hating war. Another is hating countries. You do realize war and bloodshed has always been just another factor about being human, right?

But you honestly can't stop nor deny that there will never ease to be wars or conflict.
Cease*
And sorry I meant that you can't deny that there will always be wars.
+RTG Shabs Quite perfectly stated.
If it is in human nature, why are less than 50% of the people fighting them?
AKA the reason why men by your logi should fule the world.
It is human nature to always fight. Whether great war, or small street brawl. Every human has that aggressiveness and/or anger inside them. A human will fight. To fight in self defense or to gain/prove something, it's still fighting.
Dobro je znati da neko iz Srbije slusa dobru muziku :D
They were Canadians at Passchendaele/ Ypres as the Belgians called it. Not Americans. Look at the maple leaf on their uniforms.
fun fact about Canada in the battle of passendale, sir Arthur currie was ordered to take the village and he told Haig (the British commander and thus his boss) basically the polite version of go fuck yourself. so Haig pulled rank and made him attack the village.

anyway the more you know...
And sadly, the next spring, in one week the germans took it all back
@kreejumss In the description thats says "2008 movie Passchendaele", thumbs up if you think guy didnt even look at the info
This looks like a total remake of a scene from All Quiet on the Western Front
geeeeeil
Whats the movie's name?
na sta mislis?
who is who in the video?
They're Canadian =)
Ikr
Yep, it's not a WTPOAM video without shovel fighting...
Pretty much. Truth by told, in WWI Germany was sure they would need to surrender if they did not defeat France before Russia brought it's troops to bear.

wie heisst der film???!!!!!
also I get what yall are say'n but to me it looks like alot more Canooks than just the squad shown.
@pagman95 of mud*
So what's this movie called
Mitchel Fisher The Battle of Passchendaele
Yes, the Treaty of Versailles laid the groundwork for WWII. But the two front war with France and Russia was a joke. The Russians got beat up, and, when the Bolschewiki had their revolution, signed a peace treaty (?) in 1916 or 1917.
Fun fact, someone had the shot on Hitler in ww1. Didn't take it because he had sympathy. Talk about your lifetime regrets.
+S3CR3TL3V3LZ I like to call those: Fun "facts"
I can't be sure if the guy had sympathy, but it's established that he had the shot. Only one fact there, going plural would be wrong.
Henry Tandy was the guy. Interesting stuff.
Wizard 03
Yeah, after all he was insane enough to make some retarded choices, like trying to make huge tanks out of dwindling metal supplies etc. We can never know though, I think that's what makes the regret.
S3CR3TL3V3LZ The panzer 1000 was pretty cool concept though...
And this is a live action trailer of verdun
not enough lag spikes and frame rate drops
What of it?
no i think its just a way they carried some soldiers who are badly wounded like its might be easier to have them like that than carry them on there backs
@Soap032 When the Canadians took Passchendaele they did die in droves.
All the allies you see in this film are Canadian.
@jaxxx1975 I don't like my southern neighbors too, if it wasn't for their economic power.
Why did they cut out the bit when the Germans help the Canadians save the boy?
Movie name????
There isn't much to glamorize about trenches, mass slaughter, tactics so old you could carbon date them, mud, lice, filth, bodies and bits of them being blown to smaller bits, shell shock and men going mad, men tangled in barb wire, - It's rather hard to make a blockbuster movie about that
ne secam se :D
Gotta love that Wikipedia copy paste in your last paragraph.

ummm, what about serbia?
And then, the gloryous Americans joined the war at the side of the Entete to give us with their fresh troops the rest.

That isn't Call of duty you know...
there a reason germans prefur melee combat rather then using ther RIFLES
"Befehl ist Befehl"?
If the Reichswehr had fought so, then the first world war did not last a week.
This is what happened to the attacking force in WWI. If you mass up to charge the trenches defended by machineguns over a flat surface, you will get slaughtered. Int the movie the same things happens to the forces of the Entente cordiale several times.
