10:30 - Heye demands Royal Navy to give Roope a medal
It’s April 8, 1940 and HMS Glowworm is in the North Sea. Commanded by Captain Gerard Broadmead Roope, it became separated from its battle group. Upon detecting an unknown ship, they realize it is a German vessel. HMS Glowworm bravely fought first one then two German destroyers who outgunned her. The German Destroyers call for help and the massive cruiser, Admiral Hipper answers appearing on the scene firing at HMS Glowworm. In this David vs Goliath battle the Glowworm is severely outgunned. Despite suffering heavy damage, Captain Roope orders a daring torpedo attack and retreats behind a smoke screen. As the intact Hipper emerges from the smoke Roope knows it's all over. Roope, with no options left to him commands a desperate last move: ramming the Admiral Hipper. An incredibly brave action that won him the respect and admiration of his enemy.

Oooooooh
Nice
Great video yarnhub
Make a video on USS Diablo..

@Yarnhub ... one critique, if I may.
When a ship is turning, especially at higher speed, she leans out away from the turn, not into it like an airplane.
Sorry to nitpick, but it's the USN veteran and boatowner in me ...
Glowworm, Laffey, Johnston, Piorun etc. Destroyers seem to constantly find themselves outmanned and outgunned and also stubborn in their inability to care about the odds.
The admiral who decided to give him command of the hms glowworm
Made a very good choice
Destroyer captains can be very aggressive, and caring for there men.
Yes, the way I see it, if the big enemy battleship was in port or near land and you had tanks within range, would you not shoot at it? Forget ship tonnage, this thing has guns, fire away!
True
I think you just described every naval battle in Destroyermen
Not just destroyers, Submarines, Mainly the USS Barb. And I'm only adding the USS New Jersey, not because there a Iowa Class Battleship, but because they sunk a FUCKING ISLAND.

Thought the "Lilly of Stalingrad" video has a sly one too, concidering who was featured at the end, with ruomers bout what realy happened to said pilot.
The captain of the admiral hipper was well known for rescuing survivors of ships they destroyed, and always treated prisoners of war very well. Upon his death, his funeral was attended by many members of the Royal Navy and Merchant Service, most being men who had been attacked and then saved by him.
He was a very good man, and I'm glad history remembered him as such.
One of many who deserve more recognition, or certainly to be better known.
Love the video, thanks 👍🙏
I think the Graf Spee captain was like that also
@@bobcohoon9615 yes the Admiral Graf Spee was very friendly with their POW
@@FerxeneixeANIMEMANGAHISTORIAYMsadly i read on some history books that says the captain committed suicide days after the graf spee's scuttling
Hellmuth Heye wrote to the Admirality via the Res Cross to recommend the VC for Lt. Commander Roope, based on the “dauntless courage he showed while engaging a much superior ship
In close-quarters battle.”
As long as you have a ship, you have a weapon. And as long as you have a weapon, you can fight.
Ship is the ammo...
You are Japanese
As long you have body you have weapon and as long as you r alive you can fight
@Prestallar kamikaze
Or if you have a Marine you have the best weapon
It reminds me of the commander of the HMS Duke Of York, after sinking the Scharnhorst, saying to his men “Gentlemen, the battle against Scharnhorst has ended in victory for us. I hope that if any of you are ever called upon to lead a ship into action against an opponent many times superior, you will command your ship as gallantly as Scharnhorst was commanded today”
At the beginning of the war, the then First Lord of the Admiralty Churchill wrote a stern memo about the looting of a captured German captain's watch, calling it inaceptable.
The idea of chivalry at sea was strong on both sides, at least at the beginning. Later, German U-Boote were banned from rescuing enemy seamen because it would impede their further actions.
@@strangelic4234 . . . Total bull shit . . U Boats were ordered to stop rescuing efforts after the Laconia Incident, where bastard Allies bombed U Boats engaged in rescuing efforts resulting to the deaths of between 2000 to 2500 survivors . . Better read history before coming to conclusions . . .
From memory, the captain of the Admiral Scheer said the same about the crew of HMAMC Jervis bay.
@@strangelic4234 U-boats were prohibited from rescuing enemy survivors due to the Laconia Incident, when they were attacked by an enemy aircraft during a rescue mission. Before the attack, they sent an unencrypted radio message requesting any and all support, including from enemy ships.
@@strangelic4234 One Uboat did rescue a load of survivours, they had so many on board and on their decks, that they couldn't dive and radio'd the allies to give them their position - they were attacked by a US Army Liberator which having reported it's position and the presence of survivours on the deck was ordered to attack it - strafing the survivours and forcing it to dive... killing those who survived.
That man deserves the Victorian Cross for his actions. He did everything he can and did it. What a brave sailor
Sailor please.

Nice use of a guitar riff from Sabaton's "Dreadnought" to foreshadow how Glowwom would be outclassed in the latter engagement with Hipper

Sounds like someone is familiar with the work of a certain WordBorg!
Also the Russians at Ozoweic Fortress.
He was too much of a main character so he was killed off. Also stunning video Yarnhub team!
If he got on the Admiral hipper it would have been flying a british flag from his determination
This would be a perfect role for Sean Bean since he dies in so many of his movies.

And they say Germans have no humor
@@ArxInvicta oh, we do😂
And playing Sabaton 😜
😂😂😂
Kinda reminds me of the Polish destroyer, during the sinking of the Bismarck, that kept flashing "I am a Pole" at the German ship, while not letting up the bombardment...
The German Captain had so much respect for the enemy captain for the simple reason the German captain straight questioned if even he woulda made such a brave final choice!?
дойч уважал англо-сакса потому что считал его таким-же юбер-меншем..а вот когда Шеер топил Сибирякова ..русские для него были унтер-меншами а значит не хомо..так-же поступали и экипажи U-boat расстреливая из MG спасшихся с торпдированных судов..что-то изменилось с 1945 ??..что запад считает Русских ...хомо-сапиенсами да нет..всё теми-же унтер-меншами что и Гитлеровский III-й рейх..а зря..
It's the kind of respect that only men of honour show.
Going back to pick up enemy survivors is already an act that deserves great respect.
@@Dr.K.Wette_BE Yeah... Because this is the Kriegsmarine of Karl Raeder. The Kriegsmarine of Karl Donitz is known for willfully abandoning enemy sailors to their fate and at times killing them while in the water...
@@theotherohlourdespadua1131 That's because the time a U-boat went to rescue survivors from the Laconia was bombed by an allied airplane even when the U-boat commander declared neutral zone for the rescue, so Dönitz ordered to never again try to help or rescue survivors from sunken ships, obviously it is a really bad decision but there was a reason behind it. The same tactic of no help/rescue was used in the pacific by the US Navy for similar reasons.
@@franciscovanegas3409 интересно Ваше мнение про эпизоды на Северах где в действиях U-boat были эпизоды(и их было МНОГО)расстрела всплывшими после торпедирования Советских судов U-boat из бортового оружия экипажей..но ведь это были не англосаксы или юсовцы а Советские люди да ..это ДРУГОЕ..
I have always LOVED this story. Captain Heye was so impressed by Glowworm's actions, that he ordered a tribute to the bravery of the ship and crew be emblazoned on Hipper. On the second forward turret, just adjacent to where Glowworm struck Hipper, was written in fine script "Glowworm". Crew of the Hipper held Glowworm and her crew in high regard, claiming them to be true heroes for their defiant last stand.
One detail you left out though, is something that Heye himself once mentioned when talking about the Glowworm's ram. At some point in the battle, a shell had damaged the ship's collision siren. So when Glowworm came charging out for her final ram, the siren was wailing like a banshee in a single warbling tone.
Also, reportedly, after she struck Hipper, as she was breaking away and just before she rolled over, Glowworm's stern gun (the crew remained at their station) fired one last defiant parting shot before going silent.
I can imagine the German Captain had more than a few restless nights in his quarters, knowing he couldn't save such a brave, and honorable soul. Clearly He had strong lasting feeling about it, if he went through the trouble of contacting the British Admiralty. After all, even in times of war, we are all people. Even if that fact is sometimes blurred by politics, duty, or patriotism.
He had to wonder, "Would I have done the same as this gentleman?".
too bad people like both capts have to fight a war to show they are good people deep down!
It is strange how much the Germans and the British hated but respected each other. There was a German WWI ace to said he didn't like fighting the French because they never fought as hard as the British did and were not as much of a challenge. The Germans and British fight like men possessed. Great animation as per usual sir.
The Navies between both sides treated each other as humanely as one could in a war. The Kreigsmarine was not AS infected with Nazi ideology, many of the naval command were old school Prussian/WW1 veterans. Both sides were professional fighters, once the battle was won/lost, it was honorable to save your foe.
@@Cjdergrosse Until the rabid Nazi dog Karl Donitz became its Grand Admiral...
@@Cjdergrosse almost as if they should never have fought in the first place?:(
French held the line and prevented a a German victory in ww1, the same role that Russia played in ww2. Millions of young Frenchmen fought extremely hard and died in ww1 ( some in horrible ways) only to see people disrespect them 100 years later. What a sad and despicable sight. I really need to finally stop reading comments. Modern common people simply refuse to do any in depth research in literally everything, from history to present day events.
In battle, the French navy would proudly raise their battle standard. The white flag
Unopposed under crimson skies
Immortalized, over time their legend will rise
And their foes can't believe their eyes, believe their size, as they fall
And the dreadnoughts dread nothing at all
@Aaron Swarbrick me too
@Aaron Swarbrick anyway continue the lyrics
A devestating blow will send their foes down below.
Fearless armada now bombarding the shore.
Light up the night when cannons roar
In fear of nothing, they lead the navy into war🤘
"They're Swedish?" *Sabaton style music plays*
It was Sabaton. Dreadnought
British in Morse Code: "Identify yourselves"

"Commandant? Ist dat boat komming towards us?"

Famous last words:
"Is that a torpedo?" czcams.com/video/yQMFnwfoEpg/video.htmlm32s
Aw shit here we go again
German?
How battles are supposed to be fought.With honour, bravery and sportsmanship.
Gloworm, mighty ship. Admiral Hipper, even more mighty. Both commanders were honorable and will be honoured.
This actually happened twice at the Commando Raid at St. Nazaire Sergeant Thomas Frank Durrant was posthumously awarded the VC after taking on a destroyer with a Lewis Gun on an motor boat. The German Destroyer Captain sought out the commander of the raid in a German POW Camp and recommended him for the VC
Roope was the first... and the last man from WW2 to earn the VC. He was the first one to take an action daring enough to warrant it, due to the time it took place; and was the last man in WW2 to be awarded one five years after the war.
And a third time look up Lloyd Allen Trigg

Last Monday was memorial day and I was volunteering at a museum talking aboit B-17's and B-29's. That morning I was talking to a dad amd his child. The child was only 6 years old, but he knew a lot about the B-17. When talking to him I found out that he had watched a few of your videos on the B-17 and because of that knew so much about it.
Thank you Yarnhub for your work. People of many ages are being introduced to many storys from history because of the team here.
Good job on the video!
Cool story. Thank you
The Kriegsmarine fought with an extreme level of respect and honor on the seas. I wonder how many of them knew what was happening across Germany, Austria, and Poland.
A lot of the U-Boat crews did know and genuinely believed in the Nazi cause (it says something that the vast majority of Kriegsmarine war crimes were U-boat related).
The surface fleet (with a couple exceptions) wasn't generally as bad, to the point at least one of its officers (Adm. Lutjens of Rheinbunung infamy) protested the persecution of Jews; but the surface fleet was only a small (and counterproductive) part of the Kriegsmarine.
@@bkjeong4302 source?
@@redstar5883
On what? Nazified U-boat crews or Adm. Lutjens?
@@bkjeong4302 nazified u boat crews and their warcrimes
yup, things like the lampshade hoax or the soap hoax
The crew of the HMS glowworm fought valiantly, despite the odds against them. Their crew was interestingly polish who wanted to avenge their fallen comrades.
This is one of the few rare occasions an side recomended a medal for the enemy it fought against.
Edit : It was not polish
I think you're confusing her for HMS Garland, which was the one crewed by the Poles, not Glowworm, which was a British crewed vessel.
The vessels given to the Poles were crewed by their own Polish officers too for example, not British ones, so Captain Roope wouldn't have been in command of Polish sailors anyway.
The Piorun is a good example of that. Charged the bismark.
As my memory serves it was polish, though pardon me for mistakes.
@@maxbennett5412Laserpig did an episode on that.
@@Boundraries no problem. There's the Piorun which was polish, and the Garland too, but not Glowworm.
The one thing that makes Yarnhub stand out among many other history Channel is how they paint the picture of battle in colors. Many history shows paints everything in black and white and depicts Germans as nothing but ruthless evil and the allies as the Good ones but Yarnhub is among the few who dares to show that majority of German soldiers and sailors knows how to be a true warrior and follow war time laws.
That and the animations are really amazing.
For that there is no doubts in this. Yarnhub once again shows history has it's moments. Someone tell the history channel this is how you tell a story with impact and for the facts of how it went down. As for this story. Makes me proud to know that honor for your for is not lost to history. Thank you yarnhub.
Now that's how a Captain goes down with the ship.
I hope you're resting with the Lord, Captain Roope
This channel started out as neat animations
It has grown to the point of causing emotion with the videos,meaning that in the good sense.
I appreciate the work put in to make this channel grow
He almost killed me... Pretty impressed how he did it though, ask his country to award him their highest merit.
Love hearing the little snippets of Sabton in these videos 🤘
Another fantastic Yarnhub video! Another great story well told! Thank you guys!
Glad I’m not the only one who noticed haha
I would forever be grateful to the day I subscribed few years ago. I'd have never gotten to know such interesting stories and if it's still going then I know there's a lot to come. RIP you bravehearts, everywhere.
0:42 Yarn Hub really used the beginning of Sabaton's "Dreadnought" song and think we wouldn't notice.
I literally can’t stop watching these,The improvements over the years are also very insane.Also to add onto this,His animation is very smooth and clean and addicting.
As a Paramedic, I once attended an elderly chap who had WW2 pictures and memorabilia on his walls. On enquiring, he told me has was crew on HMS Glowworm and told me the tale similar to what we see in the above film. A joy in my life was meeting Lancaster crew, Spitfire pilots, D-Day veterans Et-Al. RIP the greatest generation.
0:42 This put a smile on my face. Love it!
This was absolutely amazing. This video shocked me to the core and gave me massive respect for the german commander and British captain I never would I heard of this story until now thank you yarnhub
The intro to dreadnought was a cool touch 0:40
I love that you used Dreadnought by Sabaton because the Germans claimed they were Swedish, where Sabaton is from. That’s a nice touch.
Also, these videos just keep getting better! I would like to see the water animations improve a little more - especially the foam and disturbed water around moving ships, and the shell splashes. Those aren’t quite as excellent as the rest of the modeling and animation, and it sort of dispels the illusion a bit.
When I’m a history professor I’m going to show my students these videos I love your work! You bring history to life!
That ending scene is Beautiful, Yarnhub. Well done as always
Seen this story, reminds me of ww1 where if an enemy officer was captured they were treated as if he were that rank not just any old pow
That is what the Hague Conventions said...
Something else the Hague convention mentions is that the force that keeps you prisoner actually has to pay you your salary. (iirc, not the one a similiar rank in their army earns, but what you earn in your army, and for as long as you are their prisoner.)
But i know of no account from WW1 or 2 where that was ever fullfilled.
@@nirfz Japan in the Russo-Japanese war literally paid their Russian POW's MORE then their own soldiers, because salaries in Russian army was higher... also in ww1, German POW's in Japan were not actually enprisoned - they slept in the camps, but during the day were free to leave. Many set up shops in town etc. This wasn't just the officers - it was everyone!
The difference between Russo-Japanese and ww1 and also actually FIRST Sino-Japanese war Japanese (angels, basically), and ww2 Japanese (aka suddenly the SS and Mengele look like nice guys in comparison) is astounding.
@@ukeyaoitrash2618 Thanks for that Info!
I have seen pictures of furniture and other things the german POWs in Japan were allowed to make and did make during their time there, so i was aware that the treatment of POWs during WW1 and WW2 in japan was quite "different" from each other.
But i didn't know about them actually fulfilling the payment rule!
To give a "strange war salary payment" fact back: A few years back i discovered that germany out of all participants and former colonial powers was the only one paying a soldiers pension to indigenous troops that served them during WW1 in east africa.
They stopped the payment between 1933 and 1945 for abvious reasons, but continued after the war until the last recipient had died in Tanzania if i remember correct.
I'm amazed at how far your animations have come. The voice acting could still use a bit of work, but it's still amazing nonetheless.
Aye, bit rough this time. Still, enjoyable.
Fun fact, this engagement is actually the first battle that someone earned the Victoria Cross in WWII. However Captain Roope's Victoria cross was also the last one awarded for action in WWII.
Whereever did you get that nonsensical idea from?
@@dovetonsturdee7033 Found it when I was looking up historical info after I discovered an Easter Egg in World of Warships dedicated to the HMS Glowworm. Wargaming loves to add little historical nodes to their games.
@@kyleaugustine6886 That's not an easter egg. Heye was so impressed with Glowworm, as were the Hipper's crew, that they painted Glowworm's name on the second forward turret in honor of the ship.
Both captains in both ships deserves a raise
They are real CHADS/GENTLEMAN
in the 1 min mark the bgm is from sabatons dreadnaught song , an absolute banger.
I grinned at the start, liking a good scrap and I love World of Warships. You couldn’t choose a better sponsor. But the “let’s roll” attitude of the glowworm, the well choreographed battle and the sad but typical end of most ships that faced HIPPER. The human-like respect for a brave and worthy foe foe was portrayed wonderfully. Well you did it again. Just Superb.
OK... the animation on these is getting ridiculous. This just looks amazing. If you made a full length film I would go watch it in the theater.
I think Sabaton and Yarnhub are colabbing for a music video movie?
The admiral who decided to give him command of the hms glowworm
Made a very good choice
Destroyer captains can be very aggressive, and caring for there men.
I would put a list of great destroyers but there is probably to many for me to tape.
A fine example about men of 2 sides at war, putting the war besides them and seeing eachother as fellow humans. These are the stories we must never forget
0:42 For a second I thought this was going to be an animation for Sabaton's "Dreadnought" song.
Congratulations, Yarnhub - you managed to make me cry. This was such a moving story, and I know you can keep on telling them! I look forward to your future content.
" We don't have the firepower! " ' But we have the mass. You're on your own, Command. Glowworm out. '

Yarnhub:
Full with emotion
Great skill in animations

2 true brave heroes.
Fighting with all they have. Then helping their wounded foe as a true honorable warrior.
Then even sending a letter to tell his enemie about the heroism of their allies.
That is nothing short of true honor
"A hazy shadow moves between the mist.." they wouldn't... would they ?!
seconds later: (sublte) gitar and drum fill in the background
well played.. well played..
"And the Glowworm dreads nothing at all!"
The is a naval chivalry battle! Both captain Roope and captain Heye deserve respect.
Bloody hell the animation qualities just keep improving notably the water qualities although the fire effects from cannons & plooming smoke could do with some work but bravo to your team ntm voice acting seems to be getting better as well.
On a sidenote with how great your qualities are now I'd dare say a video on The Battle of Drøbak Sound April 9th 1940 would look astonishingly spectacular and slightly tie into this small battle within the invasion of norway.
Damn in hindsight if this was say released April you could've capitalized on War Thunder Monthly PFP mini event as that PFP was of Lieutenant Commander Gerard Broadmead Roope which probably would've boasted the views of this video further but alas it wasn't to be.
That little sabaton bismarck riff deserves you a like
An easter egg for those in the know
When a war story involving horrific deaths suddenly becomes really wholesome, love it!
I love how he didn’t request he be honored he Demanded it
When you are out of ammo, you hull wrecking apart, there is more nothing to lose, delivery a desperate blow to your enemy with everything in your hands
honor on the seas
something we dont get much
also great animation yarnhub, i love the shell slow-mos
I think that among the armed forces, the navy has a high level of chivalry when it comes to fighting. I remember the story of the Japanese admiral who also saved the British warship crews who were defeated by them. after being rescued and transported on board, the admiral addressed the British crew and said that they had fought bravely, and now they were guest passengers of the Japanese navy.
Shunsaku Kudou, the captain of the Ikazuchi of the time, oversee the rescue operation from both HMS Encounter and USS Pope.
Sailors have an understanding that regardless of side, they're united at some level in their fight against the seas.
Yes. Also because you needed brains to serve in the navy, definitely in higher ranks. So they usually weren't fascists or extremists. IJN wasn't THAT bad on average compared to the Japanese army which... well... made the SS look nice
Is that Sabaton playing at 0:44 it sounds like the song dreadnought.
It is
@Loopo Ahh, thanks for confirming, mate.
Another great video of a favorite historical event.
Thank you for all you do!
Common theme for WW2 destroyers: Brave as hell, with no care in the world as to the odds they face. So, anyway, they started blasting.
Yarnhud is slowly becoming a supreme master of 3d animation
So I have to tell you. I became a member a few weeks ago after finding this channel and enjoying a few of your videos SO MUCH!. But since then I have watched.. A lot of your videos... 2 or 3 or even 4 a day.... and I realized something today. Since I started using CZcams in 2007 or so, your channel is the ONLY channel I have "liked" every video from! Every single video, older ones newer ones are just so darn good. Your story telling ability is unparalleled in this space. Your ability to make me care almost instantly about characters from brave men and women to ships and planes is amazing!
Thank you Yarnhub! When I tell my kids, grandkids, neices, nephews and godkids stories. I think mimicking your story telling formula is the way to go and when they ask me for more I'll just bring up Yarnhub for them.
Thank you for the kind words and for your support
Hey Yarnhub! Its been a while since i've watched your vids!
When i came back, the detail on your animations were insane, the realistic skin textures, the ship, the water, and the surface imperfections on the slo mo shot of the shells in 3:31 !
Its amazing to see how far you've gone, keep up the good work Yarnhub!
Ngl, this story remibded me of that Hammerhead ship ramming a Star Destroyer in Rogue One, in the Battle of Scarif! This guy's a legend!
gotta give credit to the german captain for having the respect and determination to honor a british captain since he didn't have to, the ending was just so emotional.
The Admiral Hipper looks incredible! Nice animation on this one.
Translation. 120mm is 4.7"
The British standard destroyer gun
They did have 5" but the 4.7 gave was (at the time) a better all round gun
Such gallantry! I love the act of kindness showed by the enemy during battle to a stricken foe!! Such men , such great men!! Rest in peace all!🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I like your Sabaton's easter egg.
I learned more from this video than my history lessons
Yet another spectacular animation! Hats off to you, Yarnhub! You continue to outdo yourself with each and every video
I've waited for this story for so long, thank you Yarnhub!
before the uss johnston and samuel b roberts, we had the hms glowworm
Captain Heye shows respect towards enemy especially to Roope he'll probably one of the Knights of the Sea
I love how he added the riff of dreadnought
i like that the commander of one of germany's best warships sends letters with kitty cat stamps. (10:15)
I can imagine that when yarnhub goes more famous he will evolve to live action videos
When German demanded medal for his Enemy David vs Goliath battle The war between German vs Swedish HMS Glowworm ship 🚢 The war sequence on ships animation 👌 semma super voice 🎤 over narration 👌 semma Hatsoff to Yarn Hub team 👏
Though it was a suicidal retaliation yet Roope should be considered the winner of this battle.
I'm so glad the voice acting on this channel has improved so much since the time this video was made.
Beautiful commemoration of a brave crew of gentlemen on both sides 🍻
Another amazing video. You are so talented in making these. However I would like to ask you for a favor, could you guys do video on operation Anthropoid in the future?
For info for furure vids, ships dont have walls, they are called bulkheads. Floors are decks and ceilings are deckheads.
I love how at 0:42 the intro to Sabaton's song, Dreadnought, plays for a bit
