- The Sabaton song Hearts of Iron tells the story of a German commander who is ordered to relieve Berlin in face of an overwhelming attack from the east and the west. Berlin is almost fully surrounded, but instead of following orders from his superiors who have clearly lost touch with reality, he decides to use his men to get as many civilians as possible out of Berlin.

This episode is one of the few which shows the humanity in the German army. As with all conflicts, this was not a binary where it was the ‘good guys’ versus ‘the bad guys’. And before anyone else says it - some people will probably complain how we frame the Soviets as the bad guys. We chose to tell this story from a neutral perspective, but fact is that many German civilians feared what the Soviets would do to them, and preferred to live under American occupation. This might be considered anti-soviet, but it simply is how many Germans viewed the Soviet army and one of the reasons why Wenck and his 12th created a corridor for the civilian refugees to escape into American occupied territories. We’re happy to have a reasonable and research-based discussion in the comments, but we won’t tolerate any extremism or revisionism.
Another note: while this episode is about a moment where the German army thought for humanity instead of against it, it nowhere near proves any sort of clean-Wehrmacht myth - and we won’t tolerate any comments of that sort either.
And with that, I will leave you. Enjoy the video!
Cheers!

Well, the fact that German soldiers and civilians rather wanted to be occupied by Americans than Soviets, has some base at least...from the stoires of my grandparents and others, rape and violence were committed more often by Soviet soldiers than American soldiers. Of course I don't say that EVERYONE of them were like that - my grandparents actually told stories about very humane acts of Soviets too. But, I think that's undeniable that Soviet soldiers allowed more to themselves, and their officers didn't always sanction those acts strictly.
@@tejesedeny Exactly, what was the point of this comment in the first place. Many had good reason to fear the Soviet army based and preferred the Americans. Although experience tells me that this will provoke a lot of comments blaming us for being pro-nazi and anti-Soviet, while this was just what motivated the Germans to act as they did.
@@SabatonHistory Haters gonna hate...just stay historically accurate and objective as you are, I love you guys this way.
Just like with Counterstrike, there are multiple facets of this story. The stories from the Soviets did not fabricate themselves. Under the Americans, they just had a higher chance of making it out alive. That is just how it is.
And guys. You yourselves made it clear that some Whermacht were either decent guys or just forced to follow orders. Plenty of examples from your songs.
Awesome video! Love every minute of each episode can't wait for the next song!
My grandmother's family made it out of Berlin, thanks to the sacrifice of the 12th army. I salute you.
Glad she made it
GODS SPEED!
Wenck exemplifies those men in the Wehrmacht who did not fight for Hitler but fought for their country and people.
Im glad to hear that :)

When you watched the movie and now you ain't confused while reading this comment
HOW DARE THEY IGNORE MY ORDERS EVEN THE SS WAS LYING!
My grandpa was captured at Berlin age 17. He was in captivity for 2 years and then released. He was a really funny guy and made friends with the russians, which in return got him chocolate and extra bread and this is how he survived he said.
Pretty lucky man
@@communistpotato3204 yeah. His brother died in Russia and his sister fled to England and then to Canada where she lives to this day. Now we have half the family living in Canada.
My great grandfather was captured by the Russians in ww1 and sent to forced labor. But he soon became friends with the Russians because he was a master copper smith, and he could build a distillery cauldron anywhere, out of anything :)
@@scratchy996 my great grandpa also ended up in Russian captivity. He was there for seven years, but came back when my grandma was around 10. He took his own life shortly after, he couldn't cope with the PTSD
@big wolf so... what?
I think Walther Wenck deserves a lot of respect. Hell, there should be a film about this.
Or a video game
There never will be, sadly. Hollywood would never dare show a German in a positive light.
@@classymutt1384 There is a german movie called "Downfall", which is about the last days in the Führerbunker and the last days of Adolf Hitler. It's one of the best movies I ever watched. But sadly, you might be correct
@@classymutt1384 ugh Valkyrie?
Le Di Chang As a German myself I can tell you that film is heavily dramatized. Also the conspirators knew their plan had no hope of actually bringing about peace. Either they would fail and be killed and the war would go on or they would succeed and plunge Germany into civil war and the war would go on.
Such an underrated song and story.
Vladimir Ostojic it’s one of my favourites
@@papafritz4872 mine also, it such a fascinating story and song
More like overrated
@@autisticgamer4949 why? I think its great
By the way: this song and the first CZcams-fan-made videos of it, with an interview of the german 12th army officer Paul Rettich, were nearly all banned and censored on CZcams-Germany from 2016 to summer 2019... Again... these videos, which iam talking about, are undiscoverable on CZcams Germany ...again...
Without his actions, we would not have the heavily memed scene in Downfall.
Never heard of it but I want to know more
Actually that rant is about Steiner's counterattack, fyi
Bismarck Bismarck There was something about Wenck too
@@ericolsen5592 Bit late, but I think he might be referring to the "Steiner could not mass enough forces for an attack." Scene in Downfall where Hitler ranted at his subordinates. Steiner probably could not mass enough forces because the 12th could not to support him.
@@CommanderRion I now know what he's talking about
Protecting civilians from harm is the mark of a real leader.
Love hearts of Iron!! Both the Paradox game and the Sabaton song
same here!
*dlc intensifies*
When you play Hearts of Iron and listen to Hearts of Iron
The sabaton dlc makes it so much better
dude since i play with the sabaton track on hoi4 its suddently way easier to achieve world domminance
Soviet forces expected to be around a million, turns out the soviet forces were stronger and larger than anticipated.

12th Army: No retreat, no prisoners, no missing. We liberate the people of Berlin, to hell with orders.
*Achievement Unlocked: Hearts of Iron*
All joking/memes aside, I have nothing but the utmost respect for the 12th Army.
Most of the 12th and 9th armies were destroyed or captured. Only a small part was able to "escape". So they rather lost more
@@user-gm1mk7st8g the ninth army yes but about 104 thousand Germans surrendered
@@user-gm1mk7st8g and and no the twelfth Army not get destroyed surrender to the Americans
@@1TruNub keyword most
@@user-gm1mk7st8g thats kinda obvious, Indy already explained that most of the 12th are just teenagers, elders, and walking wounded that are exhausted and hungry while the 9th was almost destroyed fighting (its honestly impressive that the 9th managed breakthrough in the first place), they were no match for the Soviets that have endless men and firepower, in the of the end though the people they save far outweighs their dead
Soviet archives still not fully available. How surprising...
*Sweats nervously in war-crimes.*
All westernies are same...
@@user-gm1mk7st8g Okay, Ivan
It took forever for the Soviets to admit they massacred Polish POWs at Katyn.
@@user-gm1mk7st8g at least we can freely read about our past crimes. Isn't it illegal in Russia to acknowledge the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact and the soviet invasion of Poland during WW2?
Everytime Steiner is mentioned, the only thing I can think of is the movie Downfall. Also I respect your dedication for historical accuracy that you have to reupload over an incorrect birthyear. Kudos to everyone.
Thanks! We'd rather not of course, but this was just plain stupid.
Der Untergang was the best movie regarding the Third Reich that I ever watched. It basically shows that in the end, they were all humans.
@@ultramanJR not all
Downfall parodies are just too good
9:05 “had to listen to the guidelines of his conscience” I’m gonna remember that quote forever.
They still have this as a standing order in the Bundeswehr to this day. If you believe you're being ordered to commit an atrocity you are expected to disobey the order. Doesn't matter if the order is by the book and technically legal, a Deutsche soldat answers to his conscience first.
I applaud you for your correcting even a small mistake. This is a truly great and underrated song

Me accidentally buying that soundtrack is how I got into Sabaton, so glad I did.
“Buildings are just buildings. What actually makes a city is the inhabitants who live in them”

This is my favourite Sabaton song!
The song is excellently written and performed and it has great music that gets stuck in my head.
Most of all, I absolutely love the theme of soldiers making great sacrifices to save lives!
This song, No Bullets Fly, Ballad of Bull and other such songs about the humanity of soldiers who choose honour over glory are the ones I treasure the most, even if the gloriously action packed songs about awesome battles are great too. I bought the movie Dunkirk last weekend in preparation to watch it after the next episode on the WW2 channel and I got goosebumps when I read the words "400,000 men couldn't get home, so home came for them". I hope Sabaton makes a song about the Dunkirk evacuation one day, btw. That's just how I am. I get slightly teary-eyed and goosebumps from these kinds of stories. It's the same as when I see videos of twenty-something people working together to save a dog that is stuck in a drainage pipe. It warms my heart in all the right ways. :')
If only humanity had more people with state of mind like yours through out history, and it all would be a whole different kind of story, definitely a better story. Sacrificing yourself, and helping someone who is not able to do it himself is the top of the charts of honor. I salute to those soldiers who did that kind of things, and put themselves into even greater danger of being disregarded from their command just to help others. There was soldiers in that time of war, and in peace times those are Firemen, Policemen and Rescuemen which do the ultimate sacrifice just to keep others out of harms way. My favourite song is also No Bullets Fly, it shows that being human is in front of being, in this case, German, Russian, English or any other. Code of honor is sense that shoud be thought in every school and every possible place and time. Thanks to the Sabaton, people are being presented with part of history from every corner of the world and in every possible moment from atrocities of war time, and is a constant massage to learn from our ancestors mistakes, and keep the world a better place or us and for our children. Keep up the good work Sabaton and Indy. Also Best Regards to KaptenN. :-)
I think every one cried when they hear this song a little bit
With Steiner's counteroffensive, everything will be back under control
Nein,Nein,Nein,Nein!
Wait, this isn't extra history
Mein Führer... Steiner....
The Kriegsmarine also saved another 250K from living under Soviet captivity. Another great song from the Heroes album.
"Living" might not be the most accurate description.
Which song is it?
Not another song. Just an addendum to the story of the German military saving hundreds of thousands of civillians. I was commenting on Hearts of Iron being another great song from the Heroes album.
Operation Hannibal. The only reason people talk so much about Dunkirk is that Hannibal, with the much greater efforts involved, was carried out by the 'defeated evil guys' and thus ignored.
@@Sol_Invictus_ Yes, and in the Soviet Union, the Germans saved about 20 million civilians from living under Soviet captivity. Finally "saved" from life.
Soldier Of 3 Armies and Lauri Allan Torni next? Sabaton tweeted about Lauri's 100th birthday this week.
I supose Primo Victoria will be next, because next thursday is the 75th anniversary of D-Day
but that's just a guess
I like ur 21st birthday playlist
@@6yap2 Thanks! Do you have any song suggestions?
@@michaelf.bender3718 nothing directly about booze, only stuff i like to listen to while drinking booze. on my channel i have a playlist called scrunk which was my trying to spell drunk while drunk and those 9 songs i like when consuming liqour and brew
I'm with many others here that this is one my favorite underrated songs from Sabaton. What a story.
Umm, thanks Soviets for accidentally indirectly letting the citizens across.
Oh god I knew HOI4 gonna be in here somewhere.....*laughs away in fascist Bhutan*

I just love the fact that paradox who are one of favorite game developers and sabaton one of favorite bands who both make things about history came together and this amazing song. Also HOI4 has two sabaton sound tracks
I bought the Sabaton music pack in Europa Universalis IV which was also from Paradox.
Best DLC ever 😍
Do Rise of Evil next, time to really mess with CZcams's algorithm.
@Ammo 22 I'm not sure, but Sabaton recently signed to a new label, which resulted in YT reuploading all of their songs under a new publisher. I guess a lot of people saw the videos being reuploaded and mistook it for CZcams's algorithm accidentally deleting it for the subject matter.
@Ammo 22 maybe because Rise of Evil is about Hitler and the Nazis rise to power
This, of all people were the greatest moments that even soldiers can choose humanity over glory.
IDK Why but just imagining such an event makes me sad and cry
This event should be talked about more. Salute to Wenck and his men.
Could almost call the song "Reverse Dunkirk".
Eric Olsen or the Dunkirk of Berlin
Except they retreated as late as possible which resulted in stranded divisions Dunkirk seemed like luck the Germans not advancing this seems like all skill
In both ways actually ( because it was the germans rescuing the civilians, instead of the civilians rescuing the British. )
Hearts of Iron is a song that consistently is able to bring me nearly to tears
Me too
This song always gives me the chills.
This is without doubt one of my favourite Sabaton songs. It tugs my heartstrings, to know that in a time where so much was so wrong, someone still did the right thing.
Also; is there a book list of all the books you guys have read concerning the song topics?
i came across the sabaton through hearts of iron IV as well , i am glad i did !
Yeah same
This song breaks my heart.
Not a lot of channels make the effort to correct their numbers!
can you explain what happened?
@@silvanbezemer7554 There´s a older version opened two days ago for patreon supporters, but there was a mistake in a date , it was quickly pointed for some viewers , not only the mistake also the reason behind it. The channel made another video faster than a bullet correcting it, and not only making a statement on the description or in the comment section.
@@nomaryako Wow! that's indeed impressive. Points out (again) that Sabaton is the best band ever. Thanks for explaining!
Sabaton should make a song about the Barbary wars, especially since Sweden was involved
Maybe even the time the US helped some North Korean sailors fight against Somali pirates as a parody song or something
Would that count as an Alestorm diss track?
@@jaytea4093 what's that?
sacul xela Alestorm is a pirate themed metal band led by Christopher Bowes. I recommend their song “Drink” for any newcomers.
Guy had some big balls to stand up to the Führer like that! Great story and episode guys!!
I got an instant World At War flash back 6:05
Gotta really thank Alex. She sent me a link so I could watch this at holiday place. Hearts of Iron is one of the songs that I found incredible. You guys did an admirable job covering this battle and it is an incredible story.
Thank you guys for making this video. One more from the album Heroes.
And for you guys personal touch, you gotta find new ways to get around. Games are a perfect medium for that.
Sehr gerne Evert🤘Liebe grüsse Alex:)
This is one of the main reason “Heroes” is my favorite album, such a great song and great story, much like all the other songs on Heroes
The continued preservation of history and the fact that my favorite game developers and favorite band are the ones doing it almost made me cry.
I discovered Sabaton through Hearts of Iron 4.
I was playing as the Soviet Union and I declared the war on Finland. Suddenly, I heard the music slowly creeping in.
It soon exploded into: FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL IN SILENCE
CAST THEIR SPELLS, EXPLOSIVE VIOLENCE
Out of nowhere, I had unquenchable thirst to purge the world from the oppressive burgoise.
Meanwhile, Finland:
NEW HERO UNLOCKED: Lauri Torni deployed!
One of my favorite sabaton song
It is very powerful.
the "hold the corridor!" part always chokes me up
such a strange feeling to hear your hometown (wittenberg) being mentioned in a sabaton video ^^
love the work u do on this channel thanks for all that
Yeah it’s usually only written about
M8 I'm from tangermünde so I fell you
Also Wittenberg ist doch historisch genug! :D
I heard "hearts of iron" on pandora, and came to youtube to see the video. Next thing I knew, I saw the video that told the history behind the song. Love the song, great story, and since I love world history, I love how you guys teach it by doing songs about it. Hopefully one day you guys will write sons about hispanic american history, like war of the triple alliance, mexico's fifth of may, and stuff like that. I think it would be cool, but if not, that's ok. Either way, yourur songs are freaking awesome and having a special channel to tell the stories behind those songs, I can not describe the awesomeness of it. Looking to hear and see more songs and videos from you guys.😍😁😄😀
This one and Smoking Snakes were the songs that made me discover Sabaton. Greatly underrated, but still one of my favorites.
Name more iconic duo, i'll wait: paradox's history games (most hearts of Iron IV) and sabaton
This song seriously gets me to tear up time and time again, simply thinking about the desperation many of the soldiers and civilians must have felt and how sabaton describes so very nicely that at this point in the war it just wasnt about Hitler or ideologys anymore but about the people, soldiers and civilans alike.
This is the first sabaton song i've heard.
One of my favourite , very underrated.
This is my first also)
I’ve prayed for this day! A amazing video for one of my favourite Sabaton songs!
Best and favourite song of this album, amazing story
8:53 that general kinda looks like Bill Nye.
Germans sitting in a foxhole as the Americans march closer and closer, all while chanting “BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL” must’ve been terrifying.
And his name is William
William Simpson, the Alliance guy
8:40 Hey what's Bruce Willis doing there?!
IT'S THE END THE WAR HAS BEEN LOST
KEEPING THEM SAFE TILL THE RIVER’S BEEN CROSSED
@Harry Lagom HOLDING THEIR GROUND 'TILL THE FINAL PLATOON
HURRY UP WE'RE WAITING FOR YOU
MEN OF THE 9TH AND CIVILIANS TOO
I literally listened to that song and thought to myself "Sabaton History should make a video about this" today. Awesome.
When you look around & read a situation, see your orders as hopeless, & recognise a far better job you could do instead. Cannot deny the heart in people who decide it's better to save innocent civilians than to throw life away as tank fodder. Respect
8:39 - WTF was Bruce Willis doing there? (the leftest guy at the front)
Well, Bruce Willis is of German origine
Die Hard but Der Untergang
He was born in Germany :)
This song is one of my favorite sabaton songs because it shows that despite all the negativity surrounding the Nazis, there were some good guys in the Wermacht who put the people above the reich
Some people ask "Why wasn't everyone punished after ww2?" And there is the answer. There were bad guys and evil monsters. There were good guys and heroes. And there were those who genuinly just followed orders.
But how do you tell apart who is who?
That is the problem. Interestingly Sabaton also made a song about that "Wehrmacht".
I discovered Sabaton trough Hearts of Iron too, cheers from Romania !
This song never fails to put a lump in my throat.
My favorite song from the "Heroes" album. Not only does it sound humbly amazing, but the history it is telling is one that shows humanity, bravery, and tenacity of the German army.
I would love to hear Hearts of Iron in an acoustic version, like the Final Solution they sang live.
I completely forgot this song existed but damn now it's on repeat!
to think my grandfather was one of those last minute soldiers that were pulled in from the youths to fill the ranks of those armies, and how he probably only survived because of this move from Wenck... when great events like this and your personal history mix like that, thats when you truly begin to see the greatness of such men, who give up their "honor" to safe lives. its just so unbelievable that without him i probably wouldnt be alive today, and i do feel like he deserves some kind of massive "thank you" for that
This is one of my favourite songs! Every time I hear it it gives me goosebumps. I love how you used the Bach music in there too, it works so well. As always, it's great seeing the full story behind the song.
Once again an uplifting moment in a hellish week braught from watching these videos thanks guys
“No deserters, No prisoners, No Missing.”

Never have I ever clicked on a video before I even realised what it was XD

Always appreciate & love your work, guys! Thank you so much for doing this! Keep up the great work! ❤
This is my absolute top notch favorite sabaton song and gives me chills every single time. I love the story so much. Thank you sabaton!!!
I don't know which army exactly he fought in because he never talked about it but I know that my grandfather was in one of the armies on the Eastern front who pushed towards the West to get into American and not Russian captivity. Since he never talked about it during his lifetime (like many of the ones who fought in the war) it's nice to hear in more detail about those final days of the war around Berlin.
Few warriors on any side talked about it with civilians. They just couldn't explain it to them.
I actually discovered Sabaton thanks to Europa Universalis, been a fan ever since.
Every single time you cover a song I didn't really like, I end up liking it far more because I know the history behind it
Keep up the great work guys :)
Listened to this on the way home from work yesterday and thought about how cool it would be to have this story on Sabaton History and here it is.
