Weird fact, the commander of the lost battalion was part of the funeral of the unknown soldier with other medal of honor awardees and the next day boarded a boat to Havana and was presumed to have jumped overboard committing suicide and was never seen again, but he left the letter from the German officer that requested their surrender in his cabin.
that's interesting
Pieshka Coltic mo
Pieshka Coltic back in my freshman year when I took US History, we had to watch a movie about this which weirdly had those details, it's a damn shame war does this to people.
Probably knew that the losses would be on him as the commander who refused to surrender. Got to him sadly.

Should have the worlds respect
100 years ago this week, the lost battalion emerged from the Argonne with only 194 of 554 men still alive. The Great War was hell.
tell me only one war that was no hell
Actually, the other men weren't all dead, some were wounded and/or captured. Only 194 of the original soldiers came out in relative 'good health.'

It’s seems the U.S military has a habit of getting surrounded, holding and then breaking out
They just wanted to get close enough so they could shoot in every direction and still hit a enemy. Makes aiming a hell of a lot easier
I swear to God that is soo true
At least we are aloud to defend ourselves.

Pretty much. I seem to only be able to fully explore about 3 sabaton songs in a week.
Tool and Iron Maiden are pretty much the same.
Dude check out the sabaton history channel, they explore the history in their songs. There's some real good knowledge in there if you want to learn more.
are u telling me I am a nerd
How it works xD
Also :
Also lay down and cry for men who died who you never met. :'(
For those curious:
The Pigeon was named Cher Ami (French for "Dear Friend") and suffered much more than a mere puncture wound or lost limb. He was shot down and the very last pigeon the group had. He was so gravely wounded that people actually had to work to save his life and this was his last time in the field. He suffered (if I recall correctly) a body shot, a lost eye, and his leg was hanging on by a tendon (so not totally lost, it had to be removed after he delivered the message). He eared multiple medals while alive and some postmortem (yes, animals can receive war medals).
I have like, several books on strictly pigeons in times of warfare, wikipedia has nothing on me, lol. XD /hj
You wouldn’t by any chance tell me which books? - cause that sounds exactly like the kind of specific information I like to learn and confuse my friends with. 😅
@@pikppa”In 2021, the National Museum of American History, together with the National Museum of Natural History and the Smithsonian's National Zoo, had DNA samples from Cher Ami analyzed which concluded the bird is a cock bird.[1]” a cock bird means a male bird
uhhh thats a normal piegon in britan your describing it gets its wing cut off its still alright

It was to their own artillery
They are referring to an American battalion in WW I under Major Charles Whittlesley. They were cut off by the Germans, yet stuck it out until an American made contact. An American newsman said, "It looks like the 'Lost Battalion' has finally been found." Whittlesley: "We were never LOST!"
Isn’t that where a division got the nickname “Rock of the Argonne”?
godspeed to you
@@applesaucedog2642 actually i believe the nickname was Rock of the Marne
Buddy that's not how they were found
All correct besides how they made contact, Whittlesey sent his last pigeon to tell his own men to stop shooting their artillery at them, the pigeon got its leg blown off, but still made its way to HQ and delivered the message
For those of you dont know the story behind this song is amazing. The Lost battalion was the 77th in WWI. They were part of a large joint offensive between U.S. and French Forces in the Argonne. During the Attack the 77th reached their designated position but did not know that the forces on both their left and right flank had been halted miles back. Fearing that losing the 77ths position would result in a devastating counter attack and prolong the war several years led to the men at HQ (the entirety of the 77th being at the front) to lie to the 77th and tell them that both flanks had been secured. By the time Major Whittlesey, commander of the 77th, had found out the truth, they had been cut off and surrounded by German troops. with no support(even being hit by their own artillery in an attempt by friendly forces to help them, only being stopped when a pigeon bearing the message "WE ARE ALONG THE ROAD PARALELL 276.4. OUR ARTILLERY IS DROPPING A BARRAGE DIRECTLY ON US. FOR HEAVENS SAKE STOP IT"). little Food. And only able to communicate by carrier pigeon, they held off almost ending counterattacks for 6 days. Out of 550 men. 197 were killed, and roughly 150 were missing or captured by the time reinforcements were able to make it to them (due to the sheer amount of troops the Germans were diverting from other sections of the line to push them back).
And this is only part of the story, there is even a movie about it titled the same as the song but I seriously think you guys should check this story out in full
And what is even more amazing is the fact that the pidgeon actually got hit by a bullet but still carried the message all the way to it's destination.
FifinatorKlon thats ones hasnt been confirmed, theres a lot of conflicting stories on weather or not the pigeon was hit or not, they put it into the movie for dramatic effect.
How else could the Pigeon have lost the leg?
+Jaded Envy being hit by shrapnel on the ground and all sorts of other things. They carried those pigeons around for the duration of the battle, I'm not saying the pigeon wasn't wounded, Im saying that its never been confirmed if it was hit while in the air.
These guys are like modern day bards, recounting the great stories and tales of glory in battle, honor, heroism and victory through song.
I couldn't agree more! 🙌🏼

So very true. History told by oral tradition lives on. KEEP PLAYING!

My great great grandfather fought in the lost battalion. Thanks for keeping their legend alive. I can’t pick a favorite when it comes to Sabaton. They’re all epic and metal.
I enjoy their metal.
Also my country Siam sent 850 men of the Siamese Expeditionary Forces to the deep forest of Argonne to assist the US and the French forces.
Not a big help as many expected though since we were not a big force even comparing to Allied's total casualties alone.
Let's keep our ancestors' legend alive and told until today.
@@patriotth1453 850 extra men is better than 0. This is new information to me, but I won’t forget the Siamese Expeditionary Force

US doctrine can best be described as "They have us surrounded..... Those poor bastards." Say what u want about the USA one of our good qualities (hilariously enough) is we are stubborn.
"We're paratroopers sir, we're supposed to be surrounded"
Now they can’t get away
Nice, isn’t this technically behind their lines? Let’s barrage their artillery with ours
Yep stubborn even now you can still see the stuborness of your current Generations but it isn't the same as heroic.
When are we ever not stubborn?
BACKSTORY:
On October 2nd, 1918, The United States 77th Battalion comprised mainly of young men who grew up on the streets of New York, many impoverished and used to fighting for food and survival were sent into the Argonne forest to break the German lines as part of the "Hundred Days Offensive" also called the "Meuse-Argonne Offensive". For their part, the young men were told by General Robert Alexander
- "It is again impressed upon every officer and man of this command that ground once captured must under no circumstances be given up in the absence of direct, positive, and formal orders to do so emanating from these headquarters. Troops occupying ground must be supported against counterattack and all gains held. It is a favorite trick of the Boche to spread confusion...by calling out "retire" or "fall back." If, in action, any such command is heard officers and men may be sure that it is given by the enemy. Whoever gives such a command is a traitor and it is the duty of any officer or man who is loyal to his country and who hears such an order given to shoot the offender upon the spot. "WE ARE NOT GOING BACK BUT FORWARD!"" -
When the french that should have been supporting their flank were stopped, they were trapped in the middle of sighted-in territory, surrounded by the enemy, and told not to retreat upon pain of death. So they did not. They fought starvation, with very low supplies, and little relief in sight. Barbed wire covered an incredible amount of the forest, in rivers and streams, sometimes as tall as a man.
The 77th fortified a hill they called the "pocket" and with nearly 500 men tried to hold fast and reestablish contact with their allies to no success. 2 carrier pigeons became the only means of communication until they were lost. Until October 8th they held, taking heavy casualties, but fighting so determined that the Germans could not focus on the counter-initiative that forced the French and American flanks back. Major Charles White Whittlesey received back one captured eighteen year old American with a message "the suffering of your wounded men can be heard over here in German lines, and we are appealing to your humane sentiments to stop....please treat (the messenger) as an honorable man. He is quite a soldier. We envy you." No response was given. They had their orders. Of the 554 soldiers of the Battalion, less than 200 were still whole to be rescued. They were relived of duty, promoted, treated, and/ or shipped home. Their efforts allowed the Allies to punch through the German lines, and succeed.

‘The Lost Battalion’ is the name given to nine companies of the United States’ 77th Division during the battle of the Argonne in 1918. Even though these 550-575 brave men were completely surrounded by the German Army and subjected to friendly artillery fire, they kept on fighting for a week until they were relieved. Of the over 500-plus soldiers who entered the Argonne Forest, only 194 walked out unscathed. The rest were killed, missing, captured, or wounded.
To the top with you!
>Based on the video
Did you miss how it literally said Great War and 1918 at the start?
do you know that who saved these men was a pigeon that pigeon won a medal
I think BlueBeast Gaming's point was that some of the images in the video contain what looks more like WWII era uniforms and equipment.
Up you go, sir.

@Kvothe Windrunner this is actually ww1 tho...it's 1918...not 1939 ~ 1945
@Kvothe Windrunner you are right there's ww2 tanks in the background therefore the song is 1918 but the background is 1939-1945
This actually happened to me last week. We had to write a paper on a famous battle in WWI.
Most people died of the Spanish flu
It's just amazing how those people in the lost battalion had no idea that one day a song would be written about them and that millions would know of their heroism. It's just amazing.
Hunter Whitlow theres also a movie about them
But was it heroism in the moment or just plain denial that carried them through? We will never know the truth now that the last are likely dead and gone.
dragonic king That goes back to the Art Of War Quote (which sabaton actually used in the beginning of ‘The Price Of A Mile’), “Throw your soldiers into positions whence there is no escape and they will prefer death to flight, if they face death, there is nothing they may not achieve” Meaning if soldiers actually believe they will die they become encouraged to fight. It’s like playing with a lighter vs being in a burning building; Playing with a lighter you may not fear or care as much about actual fire, being in a burning building you will utilize every muscle fiber you and “fight or flight” mechanism you have to escape...
dragonic king also it was pretty heroic because they were offered fair treatment, food and water (which they had no more of) by the Germans under the conditions that they surrender and the Major refused, they basically vowed to fight til they win or til they die despite having salvation as an option...
Hunter Whitlow until you realize WWII was not a "Good" war (lest of course you're a hooknoooose kite) but a detrimental war that furthered our enslavement. "We're free! We're free!" How much are you paying in taxes, and where has our taxes been going to? You're a slave in this Jjjjjooootrix. They stabbed you in the back and have been using you like as they have always called Gentiles "Goim" (cattle)

I've learned more history from Sabaton than i have in school. Thanks American school system!
Fellow American, I can confirm.
Its the same here in Australia.
Pretty much the same in Europe, in fact it's getting lamer and lamer in France, they tend to insist on negative aspects of our history. Before, Louis XIV had over 100 pages of lessons in a Secondary School history book. Now it's four pages explaining how he got the Kingdom broke. How are children supposed to feel proud of our country history. I don't really know about USA, but I guess it's generally American-centered, that would be the reason why it doesn't go back to medieval times.
PS: By the way, I only knew the name of the 30 years war before listening "A Lifetime of War" ;)
Oh, and Europa Universalis 4 brought me to Sabaton.
yup
RayleihJ in america, its centered around the building of the country. It barely touches on the wars. If it does, its about some major plan that won us the war, or just the general outcome of it. We're barely given names or specifics like I get from these guys

WE ARE ALONG THE ROAD PARALELL 276.4. OUR ARTILLERY IS DROPPING A BARRAGE DIRECTLY ON US. FOR HEAVENS SAKE STOP IT. The message that saved the Lost Battalion carried by a pigeon named Cher Ami
smilly456 it sounds kinda funny
But in memory of the fallen in the battle of the Argonne,and especially of the lost battalion,I will better shut up because these people suffered a lot and they deserve respect
The bird that Saved the AEF and gained a Medal. The poor bird was shot down once and lost sight in one eye, was shot through the breast and her right foot was hanging by a tendon, that bird suffered as much as the soldiers and yet she went on to deliver that message for her battalion. A hero just like the men who held in the Argonne to help the British and French forces advance.
if I remember right didn't the pigeon get a medal which was basically a medal of honor?
Damn bird had more balls than most folks nowadays

Yoda's quote : "great warrior ? Wars not make one great"
Nothing but respect for those men. They went through HELL. They could've surrendered. They could've laid their weapons down and gave up, got out of their situation. But you know what? They DIDN'T. These men hung in there and kept fighting until the bitter end. Not only that, but they were such a thorn in the enemy's side that help came in the form of an allied attack on a distracted force, which gave them just enough punch to break through the front line. These men, whether they fell in battle or passed after the war, will always live on in my mind as heroes. As they rightly deserve.
I would suggest that '...will always live on in my mind as heroes.' should read '...will always live on in our minds as heroes.' There are very few real heroes left in this world today, they are all being forgotten. I say, Thank You Sabaton for keeping their memories alive.

My Grandfather fought in this battle. It took a long time for his involvement to be proven, the records are shabby, much lost in a fire. Robert Laplander, the #1 historian to this battle, found the proof for me, and now my grandfather is listed in his published photo album book "Faces of the Lost Battalion". I am so thankful to Sabaton for this wonderful song, that always brings tears to my eyes.
My great-grandpa Doc was in the lost battalion as a medic and survived. Anyone else have a grandpa that was in the lost battalion?
Great uncle died there, sorta I guess

xxNoobTubezz there's a matilda too bruv
+42nd_shark
hes right... the rounded turret, track covers, and commander cupola mark it as a Matilda... valentine turret was more squared and lacked the cupola and track covers
there is russian su-85 or su-100 and there is definitely Tiger II Henschel. These machines were only in WWII!
"There's no way they can get a message through"
But I thought they sent a homing pigeon back to HQ with a message for help??
they did that pigeon practically saved the whole battalion look it up
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cher_Ami The most heroic pigeon of all War!
Discovered to be a Lady Pigeon only after her heroic rescue of the Battalion after being wounded flying the message back!
They mean a message as in on foot. Which was generally more reliable.
Bigdcd Ah oke.
The pigeon they sent back, said this "WE'RE ALONG THE ROAD PARALELL 276.4. OUR ARTILLERY IS DROPPING A BARRAGE DIRECTLY ON US. FOR HEAVENS SAKE STOP IT."
0:51 when you and your friend are the only two left on your team in middle school dodgeball
This is the first song i heard from Sabaton and right now, 4~ years later I'm a gigantic fan of them. Thanks for introducing me to them Dad! Love you
Hearts of Iron IV released on Monday and now (Friday) this, well, June 2016 for sure kicks ass!
not as much as August will :P
Will you made series from HOI IV?
maybe, my new video, which I am editing right now and will be released in a few hours, already has a comment on the division designer and historical accuracy and also a funny reference.
What do you think about the fact they removed spies all together? That the AI is utter rubbish? That the division designer is stupidly simplified? And that you can't make planes take place in specific battles? And of course a whole bunch of other shit decisions by paradox.
well, the spy system was always quite lacking. I assume they will figure out a proper system and add it with a patch/dlc as they do with EU IV all the time. I played HOI 1 early on, you could basically declare war on everyone as Italy and the Allies didn't care... untitl it was patched later on. The AI is so far is fine, I am not really happy with the front system too, because 4 armies on the same front and they all will put divisions on the same spot and leave others, also the front should be able to be put up without an enemy border. The garrison mission also fails in preventing invasions. The air force, well, the losses are WAY TOO HIGH, about the battles, not enough experience, but the allocation system is extremely counter-intuitive.
I think the direction is the correct one, I didn't like HOI3 at first but with Black Ice I loved it, the problem is HOI 4 is in the complete other direction, hence it feels way more off. But sometimes it felt like a little slaugtherfest similar to a War Thunder furball in arcade. Hence, I am not really happy, but it is way too early to tell.
"The supplies they were dropped upon their foe" noob supports
Nah the noob would drop the supply's on the friendly soldiers head and kill him
Then check how Soviets supplies drop looked in Warsaw xd
Please nerf German Intelligence!
more like canadian warfare.
+gunmunz xD
I started using Sabaton's songs on my playlist for biking and I lost a lot of weight. Thanks from Canada. You guys rock.
21st year, the virus rages on
Everyone is still locked inside his home
When a unit gets encircled in HOI IV
Dat Fishe Boi And then you micromanage 20 different divisions just to make sure they don't die.
When france is conquered and you join the war as Switzerland on the side of the allies
I played this in ravenfield because it fit the situation I was in
hoi4 units surrender instantly sadly
@@benaskalinskas4154 Keep in mind that this happened in 7 days.
" I remember the Argonne, 1918. The sounds of that battle still haunt me to this day. Machinegun fire from enemy lines. The sickening sound of a bayonet tearing through human flesh. The soldier next to me firing his sidearm in desperation. All these sounds still echo in my mind, and as conducted by Death himself it all comes together as music. A rythm of death. A symphony of war"
Diary of an unknown soldier
@John Harmsen no mate, he was quoting "diary of an unkown soldier" which is the intro to this song
Márcio Oliveira actually there are quite a few of them and you just say their all dead? I’ve never seen someone more disrespectful than you
Márcio Oliveira and what about Chuck Norris ehh? Easy man easy! ;)
Yea there was that kid who fucking kept camping in the corner at Duff
@Márcio Oliveira did you see it said a unknown soldiers diary that means that that man that wrote that should be dead but the commenter was saying from that diary
As song called "Lone raider" about the Viking that held like an entire British army at bay on a bridge so that the others could escape
No they didn't escape he did it so the other Vikings can prepare.
Can I get the name of that song though?
@Dod o ok
they didn't escape, he held the bridge to give them time to form a shield wall, but they had been surprised and most of them went to battle without their armor and such and they all got slaughtered anyway.
Jethro Hartman WAR Ved Stanford Brua
the first sabaton song ive watched GOOD TO HEAR IT AGAIN
My favorite Sabaton songs:
All their songs.
i couldnt say it better myself, i tottaly agree
to see them live is such a bliss
Agree! Seen Sabaton live 5 times now!
i saw them for the first time not long ago and it was magical
+Ramsay Bolton and his pork sasuage Saw em on 8th of March on there heroes tour there concerts are mental
They definatly are
lucky I live in merica can't find a live convert anywhere
we need a song about the ghost of keiv
The fictitious being? They've already produced that. It's titled Die Motherfucker Die.
@@alexexcess4971 shhh , let the kid dream , dont destroy his dreams
Was his copilot Miss Ukraine 2019?
Nice to hear a band sing about an American battalion “lost” during the Argonne Offensive during WW1. Not many Americans know or study about WW1 or of our involvement in it.
Sounds like it could have been on Heroes. Vocal lines all feel so familiar. /Hearts of Iron
Yep, I feel exactly the same
I reckon it could have been a track they cut out maybe? Still great though
It sounds a lot like Hearts of iron
a bit similar, but they sing a lot different than in Heroes
you say it like it's something bad?
This comment has been posted on the 11 of November, 2018, at 8:42 GMT, in honour of the ones who fell during The Great War. Let their souls rest in peace, no matter their nationality. They were all soldiers who fought for their country. It does not matter now from which side were they, for they lie in the ground side by side. Death claims all, no matter where you are coming from. May their souls forever be remembered, for they had shaped the world we live in today.
I find SABOTON is so cool
Oh look! A war memorial! Hold on, lemme just "desecrate" this one real quick.
I disagree. May the Boche rot in their graves. Remember Verdun!
@@ChristinaMitchell-USA your Verdun is my Mărăști Mărășești and Oituz.
@@ChristinaMitchell-USA but most of the soldiers were forced to fight. Do you think they wanted to be there? Your beef is with the German leaders, not the poor scmuck following orders
Teacher:you can’t learn history from music
Sabaton:am I a joke to you?
Most Bear Cubs: Born in a comfortable caves with it mother by it side
Most baby: Born with an entire family in the hospital
Sea turtle hatchlings as soon as they are hatched:
The chorus has a 'Hearts of Iron' vibe to it.
Glad I'm not the only one to notice
It works tho... I fucking love Hearts of Iron
Funny that I was thinking more whermaht .... Love that song .... Actually I just love this band...
I got the same idea. It really sounds similar at some parts.
Same with "Cliffs Of Gallipoli" and "Rise of Evil"
1918. Hmm... I love the WWII Königstiger at 1:19 :D
Yeah some where it looks like an su something like a russian tank destroyer and I'm like this is ww1 though
Like all those isu 152s as well
Those are screenshots from Hearts of Iron 4.Sabaton supported that game.Or something like that I heard.
Demonkiller123 _SvK lol no, they did support HoI4, but the screenshots are from Mowas:2
Az egyik kedvenc külföldi bandám a Sabaton :D
Don't forget Cher Ami...the messenger pigeon that despite multiple wounds got the message through to stop the artillery shelling that was falling short of the German lines & instead landing on the Lost Battalion.
" 276.4. our artillery is dropping a barrage directly on us. For heavens sake stop it." - the message from Argonne. It always makes me laugh.
Anyone else notice that the background is WW2 stuff, but the song is about World War 1? lol. Still great song.
because background is for all album, not only this song
Oh, ok I guess that makes sense. Just thought it was strange to see SU/King tiger tanks in a song for WW1..... Imagine what WW1 would have been like if both sides had the weaponry of WW2...
like World war 2?
+Alexbuildit Productions you can do that in HOI4
+Jonas not really even with better equipment it was a time where tactics for how to use it were still being formed
when sabaton is more realistic than battlefield 5
FeministField 5
Genderfield 5
unterfield
ok guys i played the beta and it was pretty good its just i dont like the cyborg women cosmetics if they were goin to have woman in bf5 make it only Russian and french factions i liked the beta tho so from a game play prospective im ok just nextime put people in the right areas of time
its more like battlefield 1 since it is World War I
"We're surrounded and the ennemies are everywhere ? Good, now even Jimmy can hit a target"
"Chose not to surrender, they chose victory or defeat / fallen brothers resting by their feet" - this lines make me want to cry
They should get promoted by DICE for a BF1 DLC advertisement. Would break the internet.
OH HELL YEAH
Kyle Posey It's gonna be fucking epic dude
They are gonna be really famous
Kyle Posey They've got hoi4 already
Actually the Argonne Forrest map is actually something that happened. They say it was to represent the first phase of the battle.
They are already REALLY famous in Europe. It's mostly USA that don't know of their existance
RIP Cher Ami, you did well like any other soldier.
I like the germans there battling
@FerretMaster24 yes she survive taking 4 bullets missing a leg and eye
History teachers ought to include Sabaton's music in their lesson plans. The kids will ace history!
IF IN "the memory of the fallen still lives on" they put a photo of the pigeon that could be amazing
@bbonner422 thats horrible, he scape and them became crazy, well all good people (those who go to war to fix it) end up crazy because they are not murderers or mercenarys and never recover from the things they must do to survive -.- its an horrible fate for a hero
I believe that the pigeon does have a memorial in its honor.
Listening to this song on the 100th Anniversary of the end of WW1 brings tears to my eyes. Let us never forget all who lost their lives in this world-changing conflict. And normally you’d say also to honor the living, but as this song says, they Argonne.
It was inspiring and serious......
Until the Argonne pary
Lest we forget
It's Ya Boi LD ya well my ancestors lost during WWI and WWII they were German solders
that pun though
Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. - Sandlot
"WE ARE ALONG THE ROAD PARALELL 276.4. OUR ARTILLERY IS DROPPING A BARRAGE DIRECTLY ON US. FOR HEAVENS SAKE STOP IT" was the message carried by little Cher Ami. She's still preserved in Fort Monmouth, in New Jersey.
Colonel RPG nice copy paste skills
Colonel RPG brave bird who was determined af
does it really matter? normal people do not care
Holy shit dude, didn't expect to see you here.
Colonel RPG dude on top said the same thing but that little thing at the bottom was helpful
every good sabaton song forces me to look into the history of it, dammit sabaton, i graduated already, i dont need homework lol
The lost battalion
Far from their land
As they made their stand
They stood strong and
The legend still lives on
1918 the Great War rages on
A battalion is lost in the Argonne
Under fire there's nothing they can do
There's no way they can get a message through
Suffer heavy losses
As the battle carries on
Liberty division standing strong
Far from their land
As they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die
And the stakes are high
They live or they die
There's no time for good bye
Weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply
They would rather die
Broke through the blockade
They were finally saved
Friendly fire munitions running low
The supplies they were dropped upon their foe
1918 the war still rages on
The battalion still trapped in the Argonne
Chose not to surrender
They chose victory or defeat
Fallen brothers resting by their feet
Far from their land
As they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die
And the stakes are high
They live or they die
There's no time for good bye
Weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply
They would rather die
Broke through the blockade
They were finally saved
Far from their land
As they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die
And the stakes are high
Live or die who can tell
There's no good bye
With a weapon in hand
As they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply
They would rather die
They stood strong and
The legend still lives on
Suffered heavy losses
Through the Great War they stood strong
But the memory of the fallen still lives on
Far from their land
As they made their stand
A disregarded demand
It's surrender or die
And the stakes are high
They live and they die
There's no time for good bye
Weapon in hand as they made their stand
Still disregarding demand
They would never comply
They would rather die
Broke through the blockade
They were finally saved
