    “For a single day, the opposing forces mingled in friendly conversation and even in games. It was an amazing spectacle, and must arouse bitter thoughts concerning those high-ranking conspirators against the peace of the world, who in their mad ambition had hounded such men on to take each other by the throat rather than by the hand.” - Arthur Conan Doyle, 1916.

    It’s what happens when you get a film crew to make a music video rather than a crew who usually make music videos to make it

    The saddest part about this event in history is how much it shows neither side really hated the other as much as people thought they did. They were just soldiers stuck in a dirty war they didn't really want to be involved in. It really emphasizes the reality of war and how it benefits nobody except those who aren't even fighting in it.

    Merry Christmas from Germany ! Mein Onkel wurde am 24.12. Heilig Abend 1943 in OSLO von einen Tiefflieger erschossen . Mein 2. Onkel auf See vermisst . Durch SABATON habe ich den Namen meines 2. Onles auf der Crewlist der BISMARCK gefunden. Dies ist mein 1. Weihnachen an dem ich weiß wo meine ganze Familie geblieben ist. Frohes Fest Euch allen !

    I have really got into this band over the past year. I love that all their songs are based on military history. There is a video on their history channel for the story behind this song.
    If you would like some suggestions of other Sabaton songs to try, I'd suggest 'No Bullets Fly' (animated video - awesome story behind this one, that keeps adding more awesomeness even when you think the video is done), '1916' (a cover of a Motorhead song, perhaps do a combo video of both versions as they are very different in style), 'En Livstid I Krig" (Live performance in Gothenburg - have subtitles on as it is sung in their native Swedish), 'Final Solution' (the heaviest subject to write about but a combo of the video and the accompanying video from their history channel is horrific but vital viewing).
    Merry Christmas to you and yours!

    Sabaton was formed in 1999 in Falun, Sweden, and they make heavy metal songs about events, battles or persons in history. They are not taking sides, they sing about the ancient greek as well as the history of the Purple Heart, no matter which nation or time in history, but based on known facts! May i leave a request? Sabaton the animated Story of "No bullets fly".It will describe what they do! Cheers from Germany and all the best wishes

    A shame you cut the credits short. Sabaton made such an effort to get this video done and all participants deserve their credits. Now you also missed the beautiful voice of Floor Jansen, the singer of Nightwish you reacted to some time ago. Floor is married to the drummer of Sabaton, Hannes Van Dahl, who played the german soldier stunned by the grenade and the first one climbing out of the trenches.

      I agree... Filming took place in the former military complex in Rožmitál pod Třemšín in the Czech Republic (Joakim Brodén has a Czech passport. his mother is CZECH) by a Czech team. Overall, the work on the clip took about three weeks. It was filmed over two days in actual trenches that were dug for filming purposes.

    Hello Alan. I can really only talk from what I learned about the British soldiers in 1914, but they were at that stage a small army of professional soldiers, more in the tradition of the previous century. It was not unknown for British and French soldiers of the Peninsula War a hundred years earlier to fratanise away from the battlefield.
    The mass citizen armies that came later in the war were more like the twentieth century we learn about through films like 1917.
    The British had to learn all about how to raise such an army, train it, equip it, and find a way to win. The modern thinking came in large part from Australia and Canada, modern nations who were not willing to send men to be cannon fodder in the way the European armies were, sent forward again and again. A
    Also there was British industry for tanks and planes from mass production of a dedicated war economy, after the logistical problems early on. Combined arms warfare in the last 100 days of the war, by the Commonwealth armies, overcame the trench stalemate, but this gets overshadowed by the arrival of the Dough Boys in large numbers and tales of Belleau Wood and the like, as shown.
    Unfortunately for the soldiers, there was a lot learned all round by mistakes, the weapons having got ahead of the strategy and tactics.
    Happy Boxing Day.

    A great review of a very important moment in a terrible war. In my city ( Liverpool UK) we have a "Bombed out church " untouched since the Second World War which has a statue of two soldiers shaking hands on said day. "Lest we forget " has never been more poignant in these troubled times abroad.
    Loud love and peace to you all

  • @RichardAndewSwayne

    The Garth Brooks song "Belleau Wood" is about the Battle of Belleau Wood.
    Sabaton also did a song about it.
    The Song is called "Devil Dogs".
    If you know anyone who was or is in the USMC, do a review with them.

    Unfortunately I never got to meet my Grandfather, who was a Gordon Highlander at the battle of the Somme. To be honest, when I was younger I probably wouldn't have been interested. But now I would say tell your story and to all younger people ask questions. I have so many now that will never be answered.
