    ========= The First Soldier LYRICS ==========
    Before the war, he wanted more
    And ran away from home
    The War to End All Wars had called his name
    Outcast, an unlikely soldier
    Barely worth his uniform
    Emerging as a devil dressed in blue
    Being the lone survivor
    At the trenches in Alsace
    One man holds the line
    From the south to the front to the battlefield
    From a farm to a hero of France
    Served his country courageous and fearless
    As he halts the Kaiser’s advance
    From the south to the front into no man’s land
    From a farm to the end of the road
    Son of France he is the first on the frontline
    Coming home
    Coming home, let his story be known
    Glorious, victorious
    Protector of the tomb
    Memories of his deeds, the cross of war
    He’s a decorated soldier, he’s the pride of the uniform
    Echoes from the past his story told
    Lined up for execution
    Saved his captain’s life
    One man holds the line
    ========= Historic Fact ==========
    France’s Albert Severin Roche became known as “The First Soldier” of France for his heroism and bravery. Despite his small stature and his peers’ scepticism, by the end of WW1 Albert had more than proved himself, having captured over 1,180 prisoners while fighting for the French Army.

    For those who never heard of Albert Roch, he once stopped an entire offensive alone cause he was the only one still alive in his trench. German had thrown an offensive after a massive artillery attack. Albert was the only survivor. He took the weapons of the deads and put them in line on the trench. And when the germans where close, he ran accross the trench and fire every guns. So the germans retreated because they thought an entire army was still there. But it was only Albert Roch.
    Thanks you Sabaton for the song about one of our hero !

    Thank you Sabaton for giving Albert Roche the fame he deserves! This soldier with an exceptional career died just before the invasion of 1940, as if the Germans had waited for his death before attacking, for fear of being blocked as in 1914! At least two of my great-great grandfathers fought in 1914, one was an alpine hunter and the other an artilleryman, which did not prevent him from being buried underground three times at Verdun because of shell explosions. I was able to keep some of his belongings, including his helmet and his bag, as well as his veteran's card.

      Sabaton made him look like Rocky despite Albert Roche was denied going to frontline for poor physical condition and being too short... So he did several indisciplines sufficient to be told a death sentence, which was to be sent to the front... Arrived there, he barely escaped being executed for cowardness, but the officer he saved made it back in time to stop it... Roche ended the war as a Private, with Legion of honour, Military medal, and as one with the most citations of the war... he captured 1180 enemies, and was presented to France by Marshal Foch as the First Soldier of France...

Ever since then I’ve been hooked. As both a lover of history and a veteran I love this. Keep up the good work, can’t wait for more. Meantime I’ll be doing research on this man. Thank you Sabaton.

      So we should not allow people to talk history?
      Even the worst parts of it?
      This is supposed to be a public app yet people get all antsy because of the fact that someone mentions blood or war.
      And I don’t think that I’m the main character.
      That’s a bit of a headache to say at least.
      People need to learn about the triumphs and tragedies of the past and learn from our mistakes because if not, we’re doomed to repeat them all over again.
      Most governments nowadays don’t want you to know what really happened. That’s what we call propaganda. They only show you the things that they want you to see, because in doing so, people will misinterpret and not realize that they might be missing a critical detail about the story.
      People have been known to do the greatest damage to the world, but also the greatest deed that could save thousands of lives. Some men don’t want that. They want to be in control, to make it seem like that they are the greatest men to ever have existed, up to the point where they will get paranoid.
      How much more can they do now other than take direct control of the information and erase the things that threaten their power and profit?
      What then?

    As Albert was my great grand uncle, he's been part of my family's lore forever. It's really interesting to see him become more known those last years. I find it important that in a war known for its slaughters, his heroism was also saving comrades and capturing ennemies.
    It was already quite moving to hear his name during président Macron's speech in the Panthéon 3 years ago, but now a whole song in his honor, that's truly something unexpected. So many thanks for that!

    Every single song put out by Sabaton is just eye-opening to events or people from History I'd never heard of before, and an instant classic because of just how amazing and epic the songs are. Sabaton truly is the Modern Day Bard.
    My only regret is not being a fan of Sabaton's music until 2017 when I first heard one of their songs. I instantly fell in love with the songs on The Last Stand Album and sought out the rest of their music and I was not disappointed. Sabaton has easily become my favorite band because of how truly Epic their songs are. I will love Sabaton's music until my Last Dying Breath.
