This story is now truly history. In doing my own research, I discovered the last Night Witch passed away in 2017.
And Jojo, in case you were wondering, the reason the commissar of the 588th Bombing Regiment went looking for the sites where her girls went down is because otherwise, the girls were presumed to have defected or deserted. Therefore, she went out to prove they had died, so they could be given the awards they had earned during their service. In doing so, she thoroughly documented and created the authentic story of her girls, and what they had done to harass and stop the Nazi war machine.
May no one ever say that the Russian people do not love their land so fiercely, that they are willing to give everything to repel invaders. This story is one that not only is very unique, but is one of courage and bravery -- and so should never be forgotten.
You have no idea how much I appreciate this comment! I love learning deeper about these topics and this actually really helped me understand some stuff I was confused about. Thank you!!!!
Sabaton are the bards of modern times: They bring you the stories of great heroes.
That is honestly such a good way to look at them! They are forever bards in my mind now!
Sabaton are Scandinavian as such they are not bards but in fact they are scalds
I love how in the beginning of the video, the silhouettes going across the sky alternate between biplanes and witches on broomsticks.
Unexpected, undetected, stealth perfected.
It blows your mind on how epic they were.
Man the performance of this song on The Great Tour is also worthy of an reaction. I don't want to spoil much but there's a lot of fire (literally) on stage, like the Night Witches making an appearance on the show.
The Last Battle is criminally underrated and I HIGHLY recommend you listen to it!
Ill add it to the list and hopefully get it done soon!!! Thank you so much!
Facts
3000 tons of bombs for 23,000 sorties might not sound like a lot, because it is not. But the night bomber regiments are not supposed to drop tons of bombs, their purpose is similar to units like the SAS that the British used in Africa. Force the enemy to use a disproportionate amount of resources to counter your threat. Also mainly it stops the enemy from sleeping at night. How combat effective will your unit be after a few weeks of being raided every night? Even if only a little material damage is done by the bombs themselves, they serve as an excellent force multiplier and force divisor.
edit: 3000 not 300.
These women were so feared , that shooting one down, you didn't even have to kill them, earned the person who shot them , a Iron cross.
A few months ago, this was my first song of Sabaton’s that I have listened to. I have a lot of respect for Sabaton because they tell the stories that you don’t hear from the World Wars. Night Witches is my number one favourite because it got me into this band and listened to more of their music. Thank you for watching this video and listening to the song. Can’t wait for you to listen to more Sabaton.
Man, thanks! Very cool reaction!
You are one of the few who reacted correctly to the moment when the girl fired a gun at the plane. You really realized that she was doing it out of desperation. Other bloggers just laughed at it, probably from misunderstanding or lack of intelligence.
The fact you said were about to 1K... it has not been a month since then... 2.3K, including me. Welcome to Sabaton. And so you know, listening to their songs is always like this. "I didn't know that... I need to know about this"... Their songs are always paying respect to incredible stories.
Sidenote: ours named these women "Night Swallows", even if they willingly adopted the German's name of "Night Witches"
Sabaton have an youtube channel called Sabaton History, follow that channel and learn more about the history behind all their songs
I have been taking your advice and wow It has honestly been such a good experience thank you so much!!!
This is one of my favorites from sabaton, and if you want to get hyped you should listen to Winged Hussars
Winged hussars is such a great song, I wish they revisit it and somehow produce a music video of it someday
The germans gave them that name and the ladies took it for themselves as a middle finger to their enemies. the germans hated them with a passion they often said if they were in the latrine one of the night witches would look through the window and chuck a grenade in.
I'm a big Sabaton fan, I've just discovered your reactions, seen them all, and I gotta say that I really like them! You make me appreciate aspects of their songs that I didn't previously notice, which I always look for in reactions, like the lyrics making you feel for/think about both sides in Bismark or just pointing our great drum parts. Great stuff, I would be glad to see you cover more Sabaton, so here are a few suggestions of mine :D
- Seven Pillars of Wisdom: A great, mostly uplifting song imo about a very interesing person in history, T. E. Lawrence, with a bit of a sad ending, both in the real life story and the song
- Resist and Bite: IMO a really moving "Last Stand" kind of story. Not to spoil it, but for some reason the lines "We are all! We were all!" makes be feel the feels everytime
- Uprising: A story about a hopeful relatively small resistance that was (likely) just abused by bigger powers to weaken their enemies
As far as I recall, No Bullets Fly and Night Witches are the only animates story videos so far, that's why I would recommend watching live versions for all other songs. Wether you'll react to my suggestions or not, I'm looking forward to seeing more :)
@@JoJoLewis You're welcome, I always find it interesting that I can (via reactors) discover something new from songs that I've heard so many times already. Also... no hurry! Greetings and best wishes from Germany :)
This has got to be my favorite song by Sabaton. I love the story of these astonishingly fearless women flying flimsy planes of plywood and canvas, with bombs tucked under the wings, terrifying the Germans. I've read that if the bomb-release mechanism failed they would walk out on the wing and kick the bomb loose. Can you imagine a 17-year-old girl doing that? How many people of any age or gender would have that kind of courage? Thank you for your reaction. I first came to your channel for Queen, subscribed and stayed for Sabaton.
Yes, this also SABATON.
They often have of these Videos.
Also from Lego. 🤩
The figures by LEGO are the

You really have to see.
Greetings from Holland 🇳🇱 🙋🏼♀️
@@JoJoLewis this one: czcams.com/video/rnqpNO_FNx4/video.html
Not Lego. Cobi.
Yeah, the germans screwed up when they invaded the Soviet Union. They weren't just outnumbered by the soviet men, on top of that the Soviet Union also threw women in the fight. Maybe not in actual front line combat but definitely in important support roles like anti-aircraft crew, nurses, snipers, and others. And I don't know if it has been mentioned before, but there is also a tabletop RPG called Night Witches that is about that group.
More more more Sabaton reactions. I subbed for Sabaton reactions.
@@JoJoLewis Got you a list:
To Hell and Back
Fields Of Verdun
Great War
Swedish pagans
A ghost in the trenches
40:1
The lion of the north
The Carolean's prayer
Winged Hussars
Primo Victoria
Uprising
82nd all the way
Man of war
@@JoJoLewis I think the official lyrics video is the best for reacting in my opinion. When there are new songs i never seen before then, at least for me, its good to see the lyrics as the sing them. Then at least I get a better understanding of the song.
You only had around 600 subs a few days ago, this growth is astonishing yet completely deserved. Keep up the good work!
@@JoJoLewis well, we Sabaton fans are a rowdy, friendly bunch, and growing quickly :D
An interesting side note the fighter pilot in the bf 110 at 7:58 is Josef Kociok also known as the Hexanjäger (Witch Hunter) he earned his nickname for shooting down three of the night witches and was responsible for keeping the entire regiment grounded in 1943
Another banger video man, gotta love that energy you bring. During WW2, the Soviet Union used both men and women in combat roles such as snipers and tank crew. Also Sabaton made a song about Gallipoli called "Cliffs of Gallipoli". It is not specifically about the ANZACs but rather the battle as a whole and how it was kinda shit for all involved. It might be a good song to react to but I think the official video is a bit old and so a tad low quality.
@@JoJoLewis Awesome, I can't wait for it! It is always exciting to see somebody discover and get into Sabaton!
A banger of a song, gets you proper pumped 😁 great vid man!
I love your reaction!
Sabaton - history teachers
JoJo Lewis - diligent student wanting to explore the topic :-)
To be clear the 588 was not the only all female regiment. Then there is people like lyudmila Povlichenko "Lady Death" the WW2 sniper.
"All-women" means that all of that regiment's personnel was of women: as pilots, as ground supplemental servicepersons.
Not much history I can give that isn't already there. But there is some. Only small things though.
The Soviet Union didn't have enough uniforms for all it's soldiers. So when this video made it look like only the women had problems with their uniforms. The men did too. Though for the men it was only a matter of wearing thicker clothing while for the women they had to improvise.
As for the outdated bombers.
That's all there was. They were lucky enough to even get enough planes to form a regiment. As most bombers the union had available were focused on supporting the Army and logistical bombings & not little encampment raids.
@@JoJoLewis Of course. This is something I love to do anyway.
I loved the reaction my friend! if you liked the epicness of this tale, i also reccomend many cool songs from their albuns (specially the "last stand" album as a whole)
- "Smoking Snakes" (a song about three brazilian soldiers fighting against a regiment of germans in WWII and refusing to surrender, even when their ammo was empty, then they attacked with knives. a pretty cool story, and an unknown tale, even in my own country)
- "Ghost Division" (fast paced song about the 7th panzer division led by Rommel, which broke the record for the longest push in one day, at more than 200 miles. they were so quick and brutal that not even the germans knew where they were)
- "price of a mile" (a sad, but amazing song about the sad nature of trench warfare in WWI. extremely emotional as well)
- "Attack of the dead men" (a story of when the germans attacked a few russians with chlorine gas inside a fort in poland during WWI, and defying all the odds, the dying, bleeding soldiers made a last stand and by pure fear the germans retreated. imagine when people who are supposed to be dead, and look like zombies, start to rise up and fight back)
- "82nd all the way" (about Alvin York, an legendary american soldier during WWI. epic as hell, specially the "Amaranthe" cover)
- "To hell and back" (about Audie Murphy, one of the greatest WWII soldiers and most condecorated american soldier, and his battles with PTSD)
- "inmate 4859" (tells the story of Witold Pilecki, one of the leaders of polish resistance during WWII, and a man that not only got into auschwitz but broke out of it, and lived to lead the warsaw ghetto uprising)
-"White Death" (my personal favorite. tells the tale of one of the greatest snipers in history, Simo Hayha, who is credited with more than 580 kills. he buried himself in the deep finnish snow during the winter war, and spread terror among the invading soviet enemies. Not only that, he didn't use a sight in his rifle, to avoid detection by reflecting light)
and many others! Sabaton is more than just music, people learn a lot from them! and their songs are one of the coolest i've ever seen!
@@JoJoLewis thank you for the attention! I really like your sincere reactions!
Got 3 songs to recommend, wolfpack and the final battle are two of my personal favorites. You mentioned in Bismark that you enjoy the drums so I would give the final battalion a try if you want some unique drum sounds
I think you mean The Lost Battalion, sincw you refer to the special drums
Should check out Radio Tapok, he does these Sabaton songs based on Russia and sings it in Russian and gives it such a cool feeling to the song. Attack of the dead is another great song and story to check out next. Great reactions keep it up mate.
Great reaction, as always. Told you you'll hit a 1000 subs before the end of the year :) Keep being awesome and you'll soon hit 1 million.
@@JoJoLewis No worries mate, I fully enjoy your content, and obviously so does a lot of others too. By the way, you said you are a drummer. Have you seen Tool/Danny Careys drum cam from their live performance of Pneuma? If not, react to that! You will be blown away!
Loving your reactions bro! New subscriber from England \m/ \m/
There is a absolut banger of a liveshow of nightwitches aswell.
These young women really kicked asses!
I do believe there is a Sabaton History vid on them. Thing that impresses the hells out of me- I hate the cold. And these ladies were flying in open cockpits in the russian winter... at night. I would have been completely non functional.
Oh same I’m honestly useless in the cold so this is just crazy impressive
JOJO you’re on🔥 today brother great videos today thoroughly enjoyed watching them 🤟
Also at the beginning, if you look closely at the shadows, flying, they were some times planes and some times witches riding broomsticks
Don't know what to suggest then, you've done almost all my favorite ^^
Today it is so hard to imagine that mindset.
At The age of 17 you are supposed to go to school and you cant Even get married at most places.
But those young women recognized The need and volunteered to fight at frontline 💪
Just amazing
First, nice video! Secondly, do you know that Sabaton has a history channel where they talk about the stories behind each song.
@JoJo Lewis LOVE your video! This is probably the best Sabaton reaction channel I've seen! I love your dedication to learning more about history too, I had the same impulse to go read about them after I watched this video. I recommend you look up Night Swallows on CZcams too, promise you won't regret it!
Your brother in metal,
Sam
Bra when they say all women they legit mean all women the pilots the navigator the cooks the commanders everyone
Also there where three all women regiments the 586 where in fighter planes and piloted by the most experienced and skilled the 587 was the heavy bomber in a plane the pilots called the bitch because it was such a plain in the ass to fly and maintain and then theres these absolute mad Lassie's
Sabaton have a history episode on ever song of theirs, sometimes even a followup episode expanding on the topic, except for the new Christmas Truce.
As cou could tell this song started off with a bang and that is because Sabaton tend to put the first song of the album to kickstart the epicness, Night Witches, Ghost Division, The Future of Warfare, The Lion From the North, Coat of Arms and the second on that album Midway and Attero Dominatus all being pretty fast paced. The only first song on an album of theirs to not be so fast is Sparta but even that one sounds powerful and has the march to war feel to it.
While you have PLENTY of Sabaton songs and obviously other band's songs to go through if you feel like throwing in something different now and then id recommend you Alestorm or Powerwolf as they just make fun music and their last albums were amazing.
@@JoJoLewis im really happy about your personal music journey and your channel growing and i have a few more suggestions that tend to bring in views, but i think we should let you get a little bit more comfortable in the genre before we whip out the harder stuff that might scare you off if you dive in headfirst
@@JoJoLewis here's the first part of the Sabaton History on the Night Witches:
czcams.com/video/mKd2_GGtNRw/video.html
Knowing Sabaton and Indy Niedell, there'll probably be an episode of the Christmas Truce comming out soon - Christmas Eve naybe?
Ah, the Nachthexen, turn off your engine on your dirty old crop dusters and go in soundlessly. Your top speed is lower than the stalling speed of your opponents fighters, you can turn tighter circles, are much more nimble, but also much slower, also carrying more bombs than they were designed for. So crazy what the Night Witches did, I love the history and the song is awesome, the brutal intro is just IN YOUR FACE amazing.
Recommendations:
To Hell And Back, about Audie Murphy and what a bad ass he was, the real world Captain America (with PTSD).
40-1, about the start of WW2, the resistance against the Blitzkrieg.
The Attack of the Dead Men, about Russians resisting not only a gas attack but also a massive charge, 7000 Germans against 100ish barely alive Soviets.
Smoking Snakes, Gotta give some love to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force!
White Death, a Finnish Sniper Simo Häyhä, with more kills than any other sniper... and all of them in 3 months against the invading Russians during the Winter War.
Screaming Eagles is about Americans, with the famous qutoe of NUTS!
Ghost in the Trenches, a song about Francis Pegahmagabow, a Canadian First Nation (native people) sniper and scout in WW1.
Best in the live versions, because the audience makes things even better.
How the hell is this story not a full length movie or something. These women need to have everyone know what they did.
Excuse me Jojo, the little girls be they'll be like “ YEAH WHEN I GROW UP I WANNA BE LIKE THEM BECAUSE THEY'RE MY HEROES AND MY IDOLS”!!!????.
Здравствуйте
Интересно смотреть ваши реакции. Продолжайте в том же духе)
Привет с дальнего востока
the germans must have filled there pants when they saw them comming
Yea the nightwitches where fucking laughed at in the start, at the end of their run people would piss themselves just mentioning them
Sabaton history channel is there for you buddy!
Check the story of Fighting Girlfriend. A woman sold her house and bought a tank to avange her housband killed by germans. That tells more about how russian women are.
GOD DAMN. THATS ACTUALLY WILD
@@JoJoLewis but it is true. More... The wave of patriotism was so high, that the Orthodox Church asked the believers to donate and managed to collect enough funds to buy the tank column "Dmitry Donskoy" (named after famous Medieval warrior). The column was formed of 19 T-34-85 main battle tanks, and 21 OT-34 flamethrower tanks and was given to the army at March 1944.
One of few survived tanks was (by special blessing of Alexij II, the Patriarch) placed at the Don Monastery to keep the memories of priests and believers whose donations allowed to build that column.
The soviet union had several all-women regiments. Mostly infantry or logistics. Some outstanding individuals were snipers and tankers.
Well you have the Night Witches, now it follows the Red Baron, and after that the Panzer Trinity: Ghost Division, Panzerkampf and Panzer Battalion.
Only in russia at the time they had women in combat mainly as pilots anti air. Many killed themselves rather then capture due how they were treated if captured as women were seen as seen as unnatural in the battlefield.
oh wow thats horrifying
In simple words.
Pilot parachuted over enemy territory:
Male: could be murdered, imprisoned, tortured
Female: same as male, but almost inevitable will be raped in very harsh manner.
These are the girls you wanna marry! Badass all the way!
Sabaton always nails jt
I havent found a song i didnt like yet
A lot of women served in the Red Army. Snipers, nurses, pilots, sometimes even tank crews. They were determined to drive the Germans out of USSR by all means possible, so keeping them out of the fight would be stupid.

Go to Sabaton history if you want to know more.
check out the sabaton history channel, the history behind their history based songs is explained there
I’ll absolutely have to check it out!
can you react to Sabaton: primo victoria its about the D-day.
You said rap fan? Na-ah this is how metalhead is born 😂
man you need to listen to defence of moscow please

Winter War 1939-40 In one time there whas 32 Finns against 4000 russians (Kollaa Front) and these 32 (Simo whas one of them) hel the line hole 105 day war !!
official score only 219...
We know about that brave Finn. And even if he was our enemy, he was the enemy deserved the respect. Brave and honest warriors always respectful to equal enemies.
If you are interested, here's a documentary with eng subs; it includes many interviews with the actual Night Witches.
czcams.com/video/y-5cVgjJZu4/video.html
The Germans couldn't even fly after them, the planes would completely stall out before they caught up to them.
The Soviet officers were trapped in their own communist dogma, which says that woman and men are always equal, so they couldn’t deny woman the chance to be pilots without breaking the communist dogma..
At least that is a good thing then
Marina Raskova, the initiator of idea of all-women airwings, was famous pilot to the time of beginning of the War. So, her opinion was evaluated and valued.
Pretty sure it was only russia that had ANY woman in the military at that time. Not just ANY country.
But... "who cares" I guess. :D
а норверцы всегда веселые???????????
You have not heard about this becouse western powers dont talk about soviet heroism, it kinda dont exist
Thats actually so upsetting. Im glad I discovered Sabaton So I could learn stuff like this!
Well my friend Russia throw all People in the Army. Stalins Order was Victory of all costs. And Stalin won the WW2 alone with the Taktik.
