Resulting in around 300,000 fatalities, the Battle of the Somme is considered one of the bloodiest and deadliest conflicts of the First World War and in human history. The battle, which was fought between British and French forces versus German forces, kicked off on July 1, 1916, and ended on November 18 that same year.

I did some researching and found that all the names of the soldiers, knights and Spartans in the end were real people. Many of the soldiers were Medal of Honor, Silver Star, Victoria Cross or Croix de Guerre recipients.
The soldier pulling himself out of the mud, at first I thought he was a member of "The Smoking Snakes" (Força Expedicionária Brasileira, FEB, nicknamed Cobras Fumantes), but doing some more research with the patch on his shoulder as well as his helmet, that's Sgt Henry Johnson of the 15th New York National Guard Regiment, aka "The Harlem Hellfighters". Medal of Honor recipient and recipient of French Croix de Guerre avec Palme, France's highest award for valor. The Medal of Honor was awarded to him in 2015.
Sgt. Henry Johnson is "one of the five bravest American soldiers in the war."
Theodore Roosevelt Jr. in his book "Rank and File: True Stories of the Great War"
The Asian soldier with the cocked-hat, that's a Nepalese Gurka named Havildar Gurung (per the credits) who earn the Victoria Cross in the Burma campaign off WWII.
Sgt Awal Nur, who did a secret mission over the Himalaya.
Lt. Audie Murphy, Sgt. Alvin York are both medal of honor recipients from WWI (York) and WWII (Murphy).
I also notice a soldier with the Croix Lorraine on what looks like a French flag arm band, meaning he was a member of the 'Forces françaises libres' forces in WWII.
Doing some reading I found out that a large number of French colonial troops from territories such as Chad had joined with the 'Forces françaises libres'. I suspect that soldier is Lt Comba, but I can't find anything on him.
As I've been working my way through the names listed in the credits and found another one: Private George Stringer, Manchester, Awarded the Victoria Cross at the Battle of Es Sinn in Mesopotamia.
Capt. Dobson, 1st Canadian Infantry Battalion, Killed on 9 July 1916 in Flanders.
I pinned this comment, because the amount of research and information you provided is amazing. Thank you so much for this insight and research, I greatly appreciate it.

Sabaton have done a few ballads....one being "the ballad of bull" about Lesley Allen an Australian soldier who saved 12 Americans and earned the silver star for bravery.
The 21st I will be reacting to Ballad of the Bull. I am working very diligently to get caught up on my Sabaton and Epica reactions.
Lemmie Kilmister wrote "1916" after seeing a documentary on the Battle of the Somme. He was very moved by one of the veterans of the battle talking about holding his best friend in his arms as he died, breaking down during the tale. That became the basic theme of the song, which was a major departure from the typical Motorhead song. Sabaton made this more epic than the stripped down Motorhead version but still was able to keep the emotional jolt of the song. This is an exceptional and moving tribute to both Lemmy and all the soldiers throughout history who marched off to fight, and sometimes die, for their homeland. RIP, you are all missed and appreciated. Props to Sabaton for including the surviving members of Motorhead in the video.
For those interested in the behind the scenes creation of these videos, there is an interesting video that shows the three day filming of "Sabaton 1916" from the perspective of the crew on the Sabaton CZcams channel.
Very in depth analysis and insight into the song, its origins and the tribute. I greatly appreciate that! I will have to check out the behind the scenes as well.
A lot of the images in the video refer to other Sabaton songs. The woman in uniform coming out of the alley: "Lady Of the Dark". The biplanes flying over at the end of the song: "Night Witches". The B-17 flying with them: "No Bullets Fly". That's just a small sample.
That is so cool, I will have to go back and watch it again to try to catch all the details. Some of the Sabaton videos I haven't seen yet.
This song definitely hits hard for me because both my great-grandfathers were at the Somme. One unfortunately died, and the other was wounded, losing his left eye. On my father's side, my great-grandfather was from a place called Accrington, which is in the north. The regiment was called the 'Accrington Pals.' There is actually a huge artwork of them all together, dated 1915-1916, before they went off to battle. My mother's father, who survived the Somme, was with the Manchester Regiment, one of the first to go over the top. So, this song and the visuals really hit deep. And of course, being ex-army, you never want to see your friends die. I lost three good buddies myself, and after leaving, I abused alcohol for the best part of two years just to try and cope. So, I fully understand what you are saying. I have been clean for six years in December.
First, I my condolences to the loss of life, and respect for their service. Second, thank you for presenting this information from such a personal level. Third, congrats on the clean time. 4 days til I'm back to six months.
The bus in the beginning.
Hammersmith 82.
Heavy Motörhead reference to the No sleep to Hammersmith concerts.
More like the live album with the same name.
@@Templarofsteel88 Yeah, but the funny thing is that the album primarily is recorded in Leeds and Newcastle 1981 but they didn't play on Hammersmith until 1982 when they had 4 nights there.
I love all the tributes to Motorhead, and the band members being there as well. It makes sense that the punk scene was there in that regard, but I think overall this was just an amazingly well done and well thought out tribute to both the situation and the band itself.
I'm as much of an anti-war lefty as anyone, but I love how Sabaton brings stories to life. I know this song was originally a Motorhead song, but when Sabaton gets their hands on any piece of music involving history, they make true art out of it.
Tina Guo making her cello cry...
She is amazing.
I cannot wait to see more of her. She does such an awesome job!
Both my grandpas fought against Russia in WW2. They didn't want to talk about the war. They were both injured - physically and mentally. I respect all the veterans around the world. May your hearts heal. 💔❤️
yeah, went home on leave and came back to find out someone used to serve with was dead, still remember hearing the trumpet....not a good experience. it is decades ago so it is distant, still a memory.
hope no one has to ever experience that.
IT's a sound you never forget, and hope you never have to hear. Semper Fi, thank you for your service.
Disable vet here. TACP 2002-2009. We hit an IED on patrol in Afghanistan. 6 killed me and one other injured in 2007. I understand what this is like to have people by your side and gone the next minute. Death in war never leaves the heart of those who have experienced it, and songs like this will make every vet cry because they know someone who was killed. Bless you brother and every vet dealing with the issues of war. May we all find peace one day.
This was a very emotional watch;
Im not not an American - regardless - Thank you for your service, Soldier!
Regardless of where you are from, you are always welcome here! Thank you for the support and insight, I appreciate it very much.
The two guys standing in the door opening at 6:50 are Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell, the drummer and the guitarist of Motörhead. The picture is of Lemmy Kilmister the bassist and singer of Motörhead and the guy holding it is Eddie Rocha who was the tour manager of Motörhead and the current one for Sabaton.
Thank you for the insight, Motorhead and I go back a LONG TIME, I just didn't recognize them until the second watch. IT was amazing to see them as part of this, especially knowing their history with the song itself.

RIP to those who did not grow old...
Ja aber diese Kinder hielten den Krieg für ein großes Abenteuer und wer sterben sollte,dulce et decorum Patria Mori ( Süß und Ehrenvoll ist es für das Vaterland zu Sterben!! WANN LERNEN DIE MENSCHEN DAS KRIEG EIN VERBRECHEN IST!!! und das die größten Verbrecher diejenigen sind, die diesen Kindern dies beibrachten und animierten sich als freiwillige zu melden,wo sie an der Front den echten Horror des Krieges kennen lernen mußten und feststellten das der Tod im Krieg NICHT SÜẞ UND EHRENVOLL ist sondern Grausam und schmerzvoll und dreckig gedenkt diesen betrogenen Generationen.auf das so etwas NIE WIEDER GESCHEHEN KANN !!!!! STELLT EUCH VOR,ES IST KRIEG UND NIEMAND GEHT HIN ..
There are no random soldiers in this music video. Every soldier or plane is a piece of history. The plane with three wings is the Red Baron, the woman who came out of the alley is Milunka Savić, a sergeant in the Serbian army, the most frequently decorated woman in history for war services, the planes she is looking at are Russian Night Witches from World War 2 (the terror of German soldiers), the car next to which people pass by the car in which Archduke Franz Ferdinand was killed in Sarajevo in 1914, the Indian is a British spy from World War I, the Asian captured Japanese bunkers during World War II.
The most gut-wrenching part of the line "and now there's nobody remembers our names" is that in some cases it was very literal within just a few decades. The "Pals Battalions" being massacred at the Somme literally destroyed entire communities, like Lemmy said. That was largely it for the men of an entire generation, and within a few decades you'd have entire family lines that completely disappeared as a consequence. For all too many of them, no one remembered their names because there was simply no one left who knew they ever existed.
Their top song ,antiwar of how war is poinless. Only if someone is attacing you, you will escape or try to defend yourself. And yes, man also have feelings so you should cry. Age of peace is coming
Thank you for your service. I do appreciate you.
The details of them going down the trench before the first vocal is heard hard hitting. If you notice there is one who stands back, he is responsible for shooting those that try to desert or who don’t advance.
@@grimmlight4541 not debunking your comment but I think (in this situation) they guy standing back is the 16 year old kid, frozen with fear from the horror that stands before him.
Please listen to 'Accrington Pals' by Mike Harding..
The story of the Pals Brigades of Yorks & Lancs.
Authentic and sincere reaction, thank you so much.
Thank you for being here and I'm glad you enjoyed!
Praise the brave!!!!
Absolutely, and the homage to Motorhead and the soldiers that came before is absolutely incredible!
Semper Fi!
just sad.
Yeah this is definitely a heart melting story, and I'm grateful for Motorhead being there as well and the support that they gave for Lemmy. I didn't catch all of that until the rewatch and other comments that were made but I'm grateful for all of you for contributing
hey
horses?
Your creativity knows no bounds, keep it up!
Thank you! Cheers!
