To put into perspective on how much preparations there were for war during the cold war we(Sweden) in 1964 had the capacity to mobilize 800 000 men, 1000 military jets, and 1500 ground vehicles. We had one of the largest air-forces in the world.
Thank you for your insight! I appreciate it
And that in a nation with 8 400 000 people - 1/10 of all swedes would had been called for military service.@@JustAnotherArmyVet
@@user-ku4yh4xc9s good point. Yes
@@JustAnotherArmyVet Add to this we all know "Any order to give up recistance is false" This means after a mobilization there is nobody who has the authority to order the swedish armed forces to surrender, so under occupation sweden would turn into insurgent hell.
@@MaskinJunior and the Swedes would give them hell…
Förebudet actually means "the foreboding" or "the premonition". It's also happens to be the name of an old army film that talks about the first possible steps of an invasion, such as sabotage and assassinations of key personnel. It's well worth a watch.
Ah great! Thanks so much for sharing !
The "duck and cover" graphics in this video are advice for the public what to do when leaving your home. What to bring with you etc. It also shows the effectiveness of different covers. Lying down, sitting in a trench, being in a basement or a safety (concrete) shelter. Advice if your clothes caught fire etc. Blast radius of atomic explosions. It also talks about biological weapons and what to do in mobilization.
We still get information and advice about what to do in a crisis. Lost electricity or water, how to prepare etc. Info about how to interpret different siren sounds and when they are just testing the alarm systems.
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of that 👍
Really glad that someone subtitled it, so that the non swedish talking majority can understand it. Melkers movies are always well done. And you reacting makes it even better! You do an exellent job.
Awe thank you!!! I really appreciate it. Who is Melker?
@@JustAnotherArmyVet It's the narrator and producer. Same person as in the series "When the war comes"
@@toedtoed ahh yes, thank you 🙂👍
Melker Becker is the producer and host. He has made lots of films about forgotten places, abandoned places, the vehicles of the cold war and this series. One of the things i apreciate about him is that in "the vehicles of the cold war" he does not only make episodes about the high-tech tanks, cars, trucks fighter jets and ships . He also made episodes about the army bicycle and skies.czcams.com/video/MRyzkDZuQN0/video.html @@JustAnotherArmyVet
@@Fridhemsken I will check that out, thanks!
0.44 a test bombing of the swedish tank S with napalm. The tand had a crew in it and simply drove away after the test. They even tested it with the effect of an atomic bomb. The tank drove away afterwards...
5.59 the instructions "If the war comes" in the telephone cataluque which every household got every year.
Interesting!
Thanks, and thanks for those that put english subtitles to this series of "cold war"!
Anyway one get to understand the swedish mindset.. of that time!
yes 🙂
Remember back in -88 when I was doing my military service in Sweden when we was called out to the coast cause there was likley a submarine that been spotted.
Oh wow! That must have been a tense experience!
Another great video! Appreciate all your effort putting your videos out.
I appreciate that! Thank you 🙂
Very much apreciate what you do! Much love and thank you.
By the way, have you seen when a russian submarine (U 137) got stuck on the Swedish shore (28 of october 1981)?
There is a documentary with English subtitles called "Whiskey on the rocks - U137" here on youtube.
Awe thanks for your support!!! I will check the video out, thanks 🤗
My father were there actually he told me homeguard put up checkpoins all over our city. We lived next to a bpastalmarine base.
@@peo4989 what is that word? Does that mean Navy?
@@JustAnotherArmyVet I could make no sense of it , but it happened close to Karlskrona , where we to this day have the main navy base , remember my father was upset it was civilians(fishermen) who found them first sitting on the rocks and not the navy or any other branch of military.
If you get the whole entire series with subtitles. Will you discover that the idea was that all Swedes would resist and not give up. All men had to do military service when they turned 18. What you learned as a conscript is that it is you as an individual citizen who is responsible for our common freedom. After basic training, we had to go to a special church service where we swore allegiance to the Riksdag, the government and the king. We also swore to protect the Swedish constitution. There are several men who were trained during the Cold War who contacted the armed forces and made their services available because of the war in Ukraine. We were drilled hard into seeing the signals as conscription.
Thank you for sharing ! Yes, I have all the subtitles 🙂
Yeah that old movies they showed are really awesome and you did a great job as usual.
Awe thanks! I appreciate your kind words 🙂
@@JustAnotherArmyVet You are very welcome
I love You and your videos so much Dear Kylie My Dear Female American Soldier Friend. This video is so interesting for me.🤗😍🥰🙏❤🤍💙🇺🇲💪🏻👍🎊🎉🔥
Awe thank you kindly my friend. You are so sweet 🙏🤗❤️
I'll keep watching part 2👍
Good to hear, thanks 🙂
"Förebudet", harbinger. It´s two words in one, före (before) and budet (message).
Ah great, thank you 🙂
At this time the priority was for the military to be able to mobilize no matter what. So all equipment was spread out at company size storage sites.
These where locked but where also designed to be able to be broken into in case the guy with the keys had been killed.
Guns where kept in boxes secured with chains for instance. This whole thing was a lesson from the German invasion of Norway in 1940 when the Germans overran the Norwegian garrisons in the confusion of the first days preventing many units from mobilizing.
When you did your military service you learned where your company mobilisation point was.
Thank you for sharing your insight! I appreciate it
The graphics was kind of duck and cover. What to store at home and What to do. We learned that every message that the war was over was false, thats way it was problem to recall it if you press that start button.
Thank you for clarifying all of that. I appreciate it
As someone who went through them, the duck and cover drills were not about fallout. They were so the children would not be lacerated by flying windows glass when the sudden light bloomed, and so that if the building collapsed and the ceiling fell we would at least have some slight protection against the falling debris. There was no school busing in those days and just about everyone (in NYC at least) lived within a half mile of their public school. We were told that after the light and a hot wind school was dismissed and we should get home to our parents at once. or ask an adult for help if we didn't find them. Of course nothing ever happened. But those that went through the drills and paid attention when the government man spoke to us knew that if at anytime in our lives there was a super bright light, we should duck and cover because a super hot, super strong wind would be right behind it. LoL it was actually several years later before anyone told us about fallout and the 20 minute window of opportunity to get someplace deep or with a thick wall and ceiling that was still standing..
Thank you!! That makes much more sense. I doubted that a desk could help from nuclear fallout. I appreciate your insight
@@JustAnotherArmyVet Happily. So tired of those who never went through them say it was a kiss your @ss goodby drill. It was exactly the opposite. Years (decades actually) later I had opportunity to read a (still classified and also Restricted even back then) thick Government book called Autopsy Reports From Hiroshima. Lots of photos including some of still (for awhile) people. Glass window fragments at 300 MPH are no joke. Other debris killed a lot of folk too. Yes, some too close in the open within 800 yards of Ground Zero just went poof, so quickly even their shadows were left behind (and are still (mostly faded now) stuck on walls and sidewalks without their owners). But the bulk of the fatalities weren't close enough to just vanish. Debris and fires followed by fall out. accounted for most fatalities, Still with just over a quarter million population before the detonation, at Hiroshima about 120,000 people months after (November 1945) the detonation had neither died nor had visible injury. At the more hilly and smaller Nagasaki by November there were about 130,000 uninjured. Duck and cover would have probably raised those numbers if they had known to. In both cities many bomb shelters and root cellars (even close to ground zero) were not destroyed or even damaged in some cases.
Hey nice reaction. Im swedish and actually been to alot of these "hidden" bunker complexes a few years back i grew up in a navalbase cuty with enormous underground areas almost like a city under the city. Most of these areas were put in moth bag years ago. However these past months after we got rid of a slouch head called Dan Eliasson they had to reactivate and probably modernise the equipment in alot of the bunker complexes. Sadly russia already know were all these "hidden" places are.
Thank you!!! I imagine that they are some underground complexes that only top Swedish officials know about. But yes, Russia spies have found out a lot of secrets (unfortunately).
@@JustAnotherArmyVet Yeah i think i remember about a facility being mentioned or something somewhere that is literally a "hangarbase" hidden capable of sustaining itself offgrid for a lenghty time or maybe it was something planned years ago. It is mentioned in a documentary that the capabilities were there. But yeah my father was a airforce engineer back in the 60/70's one of those sent out to prepare for hidden runways across the land. That was the old tactic that probably would still be in use. Small runways disguised as a rural highway easily transformed into offgrid runways in case of war. As what i saw in documentary they said swedish made planes were constructed to be able to land and take off from smaller strips. All this is interesting to say the least. Even if russians would now about this possible tactic they would have a next to impossible task to cover the whole land whitout getting hit. If they would attack Swedish land they would also contend with scandinavian and northern european fighters. Its a deterrant in every way possible. We would be neck deep in war if that ever happened and Russia would never put themselves in that position unless they had rebuilt their military . Thing is at this point we have a steep way to go getting back to the defense we hade in the 70-80's. We have the technology to fight a good fight and the tactics but manpower is extremely lacking.
@@peo4989 I can’t imagine how much equipment and soldiers the brush and military has lost in the last two years. It’s gonna take Russia long time to rebuild.
About 550 Swedish pilots died during the Cold War.
I just finished editing episode two, death from the air, all about the pilots. They do talk about all the accidents actually in the second episode. Very sad
Officially those pilots are remembered as "Stupade för Fosterlandets försvar under Kalla Kriget" ("KIA for the Defense of the Fatherland/Motherland during the Cold War") ((Fosterlandet basically means "Forefathers' Land")). So, we regard them as heroes who sacrificed their lives for our Nation's Freedom. Pretty badass if you ask me.
@@karllandegren9727 agreed!
“When the war comes” (not if) used to be a section in the telephone catalogue. Fill the bathtube completely before the water supply gives out. Have a Russian phrase book, or rudimentary knowledge of Russian. Have a rifle.
Do most Swedes today know a little Russian?
I remember reaing that section of the phonebook(It was IF the war comes) and it didn't mention anything about learning Russian, but there were a section on what the Geneva convention says about resistance movements@@JustAnotherArmyVet
@@stormmoster as schooled as I am on the Geneva Convention regarding 👥 Medics, I know nothing about what it says, regarding resistance movements…
Just saw this, I would like more "Reaction" from you - that I understand has the US scenario (excuse my poor english) of the time - "You" most likely must have had a Soviet-Sweden scenario well thought through...
Love from Sweden 💖
Your English is actually very good. Thanks 👍❤️
@@JustAnotherArmyVet I'll see it all with you (cause I missed this docu on Swedish TV... And cause the narrator(?) is a well respected docu filmmaker...
Love from Sweden 💖
He makes great series! Love and respect from South Carolina.
"Förebudet" is swedish for precursor, or the gray-zone.
Great, thanks!
No it´s not, read my separate comment.
More like the word harbinger.
@@mr.t114 and Google translating is saying it means “the ban” 😂
@@JustAnotherArmyVet Förbjudet is Swedish for Forbidden or banned.
@@MaskinJunior thank you!
Holy what the hell. It's like a doom monster
Yes
"Förebudet" means something like "harbinger" in english.
I actually had to look up what “harbinger” was. I had never heard of it 😂. Thanks 👍
lol haha @@JustAnotherArmyVet
I had clearence to be at top secret places and work with secret systems and had of cource directive to never tell anyone.
The problem is that nobody get a notice when places or objects isn't secret anymore so it's hard to know if I can answer any questions about it if someone ask me what I think.
I have a question that you can answer, whether they are still secret or not. It’s a yes or no question: Are these top secret locations well hidden? I have never been to any top secret bases, but I did have special combat medic training that I am not allowed to talk about. We had to sign NDA (Non disclosure agreements) 🙂
@@JustAnotherArmyVet Well, yes but the locals often know about them.
Now some of them has been converted to server rooms.
I was mostly inside a large military nuclear proof mountains that had tunnels to secret rooms that only was known as rumours, often exaggerated or false but they did exist.
Interesting!!! 🙂
@@JustAnotherArmyVet they were so secret that neither the facilities or their access roads were present on civilian maps and for a long time, air photos of those areas were redacted to hide any sensitive facilities.
Other facilities, were hidden in plain sight, such as the permanently manned control and monitoring stationd of the thousands of now removed sea mine blockades. Every shipping lane, creek inlet, and harbor access no matter how small along the entire coastline had two or more chains of manually operated permanent sea mine blockades. The entrances to those underground control stations were commonly disguised as and among the tool sheds of local fishermen, and fairly often near to a blockhouse and turret emplacement belonging to the local home guard militia unit. Tank turrets such as those of the strv. m/41, m/42 and m/74 were often kept and converted to militia manned defense emplacements around smaller harbors and airfields that didn't warrant a full costal artillery fortress.
My uncle was one of the combat pilots trained on the SAAB 35 and 37, my dad was a lt.col. in the costal artillery command staff, my older brother was trained as a conscript platoon leader in the late 80ies, and my older sister trained as a volounteer conscript radio service tech in the early 90ies.
@@SonsOfLorgar so much for your insight and thank your family for its service!
Great video.
As far as I am concerned, I live about two miles away from the Greek Department of Defense, so in case of WW3 I will be lucky enough to be inside the fireball or very close to it. This way, hopefully I will be spared from surviving in to what will follow.
Something else that might be of interest is this channel with 9-10 year old videos with great graphic animations showing 10 ancient battles that played a crucial role in history.
Here are two related battle videos:
