    Wolfpacks we're terrifying , It usually was 5 U-boats hunting down convoys. In the middle of the Atlantic was called "The Black Pit" You had no air cover. Destroyers we're the only defense against U-boats, and the ending chorus is the U-boats attacking the convoy

      the Black Pit, or in german "Mittelatlantische Luftlücke" was closed when the british RAF deployed Catalina planes on the Azores in late ´41 and ´42...but the song itself is about "Unternehmen Paukenschlag" or "Operation Drumbeat", when U-Boots begun to attack the east coast of the US and Canada in early ´42. The "success" was massive, but only for a few weeks. I mean really massive, the US Gov censored the news, cause they were in fear of a nation wide panic

      ​@@MikeS309 besides, most of the sharks in the north atlantic belong to the Lamniformes family, which are mostly specialized in prey that doesn't come close to people. The exceptions would be Great Whites and Porbeagles (even though they are also not that interested in people). We do have the largest predatory shark and the fastest predatory shark species though.

    The movie footage is from the film "Greyhound" (2020) starring Tom Hanks. It steams exclusively on AppleTV+. It never got a Theatrical release due to the Pandemic. And it doesn't have a regular home video disc release either, which is ashame.
    But yeah, because Sabaton's music deals with a lot of stuff like this, it's often easy to use movie or video game footage to depict the narratives within the songs. There have been many fan-made videos of Sabaton songs. "Wolfpack" was actually Track #4 off of their debut album "Primo Victoria" (2005). And that's the beauty of Sabaton's catalog in that you can go back to older songs and make videos of them, either officially or fan-made, once the visual material is available to use. Like an official video for the song Primo Victoria was made about 13 years after the album came out because Sabaton started working with the company that makes the World of Tanks/Warships games, so they were able to use that working relationship to make a new video for the song.

    Please, continue to listen to the guitarist in Sabaton, Tommy Johansson. He's an AMAZING singer! I.e. check out his cover of Queens "who wants to live forever" or his "phantom of the opera" cover. You've already listened to his Elton John cover, but that song doesn't show his crazy vocals.

    "Bury, Gleaves, and Ingham leading" were three ships in the convoy. Ingham was a US Coast Guard Cutter (it is actually a museum ship now). The Gleaves was a destroyer, and the lead ship of the Gleaves class destroyers. The Bury was a cargo/passenger vessel that was equipped to be a convoy rescue vessel that ended up saving 148 men in the water from the sunken ships in convoy ON-92. There were 52 ships in convoy ON-92. 1 Destroyer, 4 Corvettes, 1 Cutter and 46 merchant ships. Only 7 merchant ships were lost of the 52 ships in total.

If a fire breaks out, you fight with all you have!! Every sailor a firefighter, no matter the rank!!! Your life and those of your crew depend on it.

    This song is about ON 92, A Convoy lead by USS Gleaves, USCG Ingham, and USS Bury Who was fitted with this new "State of the art" RPF or Radio Position Finding Technology.
    she was made to triangulate Radio intercepts from Uboats.
    "May '42 when Bury did Fail the Test" refers to the failure of the RPF Equipment she was using.
    Surprisingly, my Great Grandfather who was a merchant Marine was part of this Convoy, He was not on a ship that was hit, but was suppose to be.
    This was his forth crossing, after his fifth crossing, he shot himself in the leg with his Webley Revolver and left Service.

    Well I should make this clear this is not how a normal u-boat encounter went. The U-boats would be under water making stuff more scary.

  • @najroe
    @najroe Před rokem +1

    i n North Atlantic most of casualties where drowning, hypothermia and explosions/shrapnel. sharks where very rarely cause of injury or death. without a enclosed lifeboat with protection from the wind and water you are likely to die within 30 minutes from hypotermia in the conditions shown in the video.
    I live where cold water like that is common (northern Scandinavia) and we use survival suites to survive long enough to even get rescued (without a suit unconscious in 10-15 min with just life jacket, twice that in a open lifeboat), 8nly real chance for rescue is if PLB or EPIRB are activated and/or emergency position is accurately given via radio
    PLB=Personal Locating Beacon, a transmitter sending a emergency message with the position to satelites when activated, often also has radar transponder further helping rescuers Locating you.
    EPIRB= Emergency Position Iindicating Radio Beacon, an automatic Beacon sending a radio emergency signal when floating in water.
