Any stories you can tell us that aren’t already public or like little known facts? I’m assuming your telling the truth & if so? AWESOME, great grandfather was a beast if he got the navy cross & friends w Dan Daly. Best of luck in life
@@scotthill1600 I’d have to talk to my uncles since he’s the one who taught me all this stuff however I have a letter from Daly to my great grandfather regarding a self defense shooting he got in when he was at a gas station off base in Pendleton supporting his character which my great grandfather won the case but was kicked out the Marine corps only to reenlist into the army air corps and would be stationed at Pearl Harbor for years into the Pearl Harbor bombing.
I still say the Germans surrendered on what would become Veteran's Day because they found out it was Dan Daly's birthday, and they were scared how he was going to celebrate it that year.
I've studied history in The Netherlands and this topic was discussed at a serious level! 'Why did'nt the Americans retreat?' The phrase 'Retreat? Hell, we just got here!' was also mentioned. Some historians argue that they did'nt retreat because the Americans did'nt know how horrific those battles were and the low morale of the Germans after years in the trenches. But I found out morale was actually high in the German army at that time. They just never faced US soldiers before and were surprised by their strong abillity to fight. And in a way those soldiers did live forever. In the history books. ❤
@@marcelrenes2435 I think people also don’t completely grasp that the US had been in armed conflict in the Banana Wars and the American Indian Wars just a handful of years prior to the outbreak of World War 1. The US had soldiers that had gone through a hail of bullets before they ever entered the war.
If your related to General Patton, then you are somewhat (potentially) related to the Greatest Marine of all time as well. General Lewis B “Chesty” Puller and General George Patton were second cousins. Also, I had two relatives that fought at Belleau Wood - including my Great Grandfather and a distant uncle. My Uncle was an LT and then a Captain with 1/5 and 1/6 Marines. He would later lead the 5th Marine Division at Iwo Jima (he was the Commanding General of the Division itself, not the entire campaign). One of many reasons I joined the Marines back in 2009.
@@akilahcopeland559 No, we are created and molded into Marines. This history is drilled into every Marine and we are tested on it. Every Marine knows those quotes. We come from the same gene pool as every other branch after all.
This is how history should be taught. In 20 minutes he teaches you exploits in a amazing way that keeps you looking for more. Every kid in my high school would've enjoyed it.
The Fat Electrician's early videos were about military jobs and equipment, and were much shorter. You could react to two or three of these per episode.
Some background facts about some of the events mentioned here: Private Daly wasn't actually left completely alone at the Legation Center in Peking, but he WAS the only marine assigned to guard that particular approach to the building, and the other marines guarding the building were unable to leave their posts to back him up for fear of letting the rebels just walk right in from another direction and start slaughtering the civilians. More than anything else, the Boxer Rebellion's particular hatred for Christian missionaries (and indeed the distrust of Christianity that is common in Chinese culture to this day) is mostly France's fault. After the Opium Wars, the Western Powers dictated terms to the Chinese Emperor at gunpoint, and one of France's terms was that Christians would be immune to prosecution in China. This was meant to curb persecution that had been happening already to Chinese Christians, but the inevitable result is that every two-bit rapist, murderer and bandit converted to Christianity and became above the law overnight. This lead to the popular perception in China that Christianity was an evil religion that brought horror, criminality, corruption and hardship wherever it went. The moral of the story? Well, considering how some of France's other historical treaty negotiations and demands have gone (looking at you, Versailles) I think the lesson here is "never let the French negotiate peace, because they WILL fuck it up for everyone." During the night when Dan Daly recovered his company's machine gun from the bottom of that river, what TFE didn't mention is that he encountered three rebel scouts and had to quickly and silently kill them in CQC with his combat knife to keep them from alerting their buddies that he was there. Then, Daly calmly went back to fishing the machine gun out of the water like nothing happened. That encounter was a big part of why he won his second MoH.
Awesome addition to it, never seen these brought up. Considering how much Nic puts into these videos, I wouldn't be surprised if a thing or two fell through the cracks. It's a lot.
@@rmartinson19 What is it with French-based countries fucking things up for everyone else? The French make other countries mad through their petty treaty practices, and the Canadians constantly come up with new ways to get tried for war crimes.
I heard about Dan Daly when I was little from my uncle that is a Marine. He also taught me and his son how to catch fish barehanded when we were little too❤
love it... legendary british battle cries would be shakespearen in contrast to our brothers over pond...bluntley direct threat with profanities and heroic actions..heroes
unrelated to Daly's story, just the movie clip of Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones. @10:24 'ish During the shoot of that scene it was supposed to be a long drawn out fight scene. However that morning Harrison Ford woke up with a 103 or 104'ish fever. Not wanting or feeling like having to do an extended action scene he did what common sense would tell any man who was facing down a sword wielder would do if he had a gun on his side....just shoot him an walk away. LOL It was a bit of improv due to health reasons and worked amazingly well in the movie.
Fat Electrician: I don’t know what the logic was behind that one. Me: Logic and military? Doc we already know those are two things you don’t do in service. Put logic in the military.
He wasn't actually alone, that's a misnomer. There were others at other entrances, but they couldn't leave their posts to help him because they had to guard the other entrances from potential rebel infiltration.
Fun fact. The Indiana Jones scene happened because Harrison Ford was sick and didn't want to do the take so pulled out his pistol with blanks and the stunt guy went with it
Not going to lie the Society of the Righteous and Harmonious Fist is a bad ass culture appropriate name. Outside of gunfights I am sure they were elite badass level martial artists.
Not only did he win the CMH twice, he was nominated 3 times, and is single handedly responsible for the law that says you can now only win it once. This is one of only 3 things that Fat Electrician has done videos on that I actually new something about, lol.
When I served in the Army from 2010-2020, I remember a Sgt Major of the Army Daily. If my memory serves me right, he was the youngest E9-3 ever and changed regs for us, such as, sleeved tats, ankle socks during PT and running with headphones in to name a few. Pretty sure I remember when meeting him, that him and this Marine Daily are related.

Awards are awarded by rank last I seen 20 years ago. I was awarded a Bronze Star with a V after I lead a Section of Recon Scouts during a complex ambush and got all my Soldiers out with only 1 minor injury and we still killed 9 enemy with 2 captured. I was really thankful about that. 1SG later on told me that it was originally submitted for a Silver Star with a V but because I was a E5 it didn't fit 4ID's policy on awards so it was downgraded.
Marine grunt here. Just watched your video. From my experience working with various branches, that’s what separates other branches from the Marine Corps; our history, customs, and traditions. Boot for us is not just a physical and mental challenge, but also a three month history lesson. Even getting into the fleet, we have buildings, walls, statues honoring our past. In boot, there’s a small binder that each recruit has to carry that fits in our cargo pocket called the war book or bible. In it, it has various teachings from war tactics to customs and courtesies. For Marines, it’s important for us to know where we came from, what we accomplished, just so we can know where we are going and what we need to aspire to.
Any time someone mentions "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog" I can't help but think that the chihuahua proves it wrong.
General Patton's grandfather's house is still standing in Charleston, WV. It's called the Craik-Patton house. Gen. Patton learned tactics from Turner Ashby, AKA the Grey Ghost.
When I enlisted in 93 the Corps still did it, in fact one of the things we'd do to pass the time later on was bet FNG's on how much Marine Corps history and lore they remembered from boot, did that until I mustered out in 2010, great way to build a repour with a lot of the younger Marines and to take their minds off the shit we were all in during different deployments. As an NCO its not only your duty but moral obligation to look after your younger brothers by keeping an ear open to their troubles. Worked when I was an 0311, an 0321 and with FORECON and both prior to and after you ran with them outside the wire.
I’m almost 100% sure he meant to say “the most aerodynamic massacre “ instead of “the Most aerodynamic masquerade”! Not a big deal, I understood; just in case some didn’t.
The first time I saw FE's original video when he was talking about Dan Daly's childhood, I caught that he was born on November 11th. I said out loud, "Oh so he was born on Veterans/Armistice day. Nice" Turns out he was the main character
Anyone interested in movies based on this, . . . The Silent Film "Tell It To The Marines" (1926) has Lon Chaney playing A character very much based on Daly. And "55 Days at Peking" (1963) is about the Boxer Rebellion. Both were top tier films in their day.
Shelby Foote was once asked (paraphrasing) What piece if modern military equipment do you think General Lee would have wanted at Gettysburg. Shelby answered, A Walkie Talkie.
Interesting fact about the Indiana Jones scene. Originally it was supposed to be a sword fight between Jones and the sword, dude who was an actual swordsman that was hired but due to the actor getting some kind of got infection? I can’t remember exactly what it was. He wasn’t fair enough to actually participate in the scene so they replaced it with the infamous dancing.
Fun fact about that Indiana Jones scene, it was improvised in the moment because Harrison Ford had foos poisoning (i think) and was on the verge of shitting his pants.

I love military history, and this dude teaches me new things every fricking video.
One thing that Fat Electrician got wrong on this one was that Dan Daly was actually 26 when he joined the marines, not 16. Also, despite what the Marines might claim, there's no evidence that the Germans ever actually called them that and additionally the Marines didn't actually capture Belleau Wood, it was actually the Army's 26th division about three weeks after that incident with Dan Daly. There has never once been a shred of documentation that has ever surfaced from Germany that that nickname was ever used. Now, I say all this for accuracy's sake, not to take away from Dan Daly. The man was a beast and a living legend in his time. He deserves everything he got and more.
To your comment on your friend probably knowing... simply say "Two metals of Honor". I promise he will know EXACTLY who you are talking about, and will be able to tell you of the three other times he got lesser awards.

Most of those "brawls" I either witnessed or was apart of was due to Seabee's not having their weapon close enough if an engagement broke out. I understood you guys were more build this or demo that but if shit pops off we Marines may need you guys to join the fight toot fucking sweet. If you haven't seen it yet you should check out The Fat Electricians covering of the Wake Island fight during WW2 were your brothers from history started to build your legend as not only builders and demo but kick ass fighters who fought along side their Marine brethren and something like a hundred civilian contracted construction workers.

If you haven't seen it yet you should check out The Fat Electricians covering of the Wake Island fight during WW2 were your brothers from history started to build your legend as not only builders and demo but kick ass fighters who fought along side their Marine brethren and something like a hundred civilian contracted construction workers. Great story truth be told.

Hopefully Fat Electrician and ETS21 get to learn about ROBERT BLAIR ( PADDY ) MAINE.
