    There's 'One' thing they got wrong and they (Sabaton) know it. Sgt. York was not in the 338th like the studio version says, but in the 328th. They sing the right number in their live performances though. Nice reaction.

    I must recommend Great War (Official Music Video) and En Livstid I Krig (Live - The Great Tour - Gothenburg). Remember to put on subtitles for the last one as it is in Swedish. Two of their darker, sadder songs describing the horror and sadness of war.

    The All American Division was actually established in WWI, because they had members from all 48 states at the time. Death from above was indeed started in WWII, but the All American Division was established in WWI. From Wikipedia: The division was constituted, originally as the , in the National Army on 5 August 1917, shortly after the American entry into World War I. It was organized on 25 August 1917, at Camp Gordon, Georgia and later served with distinction on the Western Front in the final months of World War I. Since its initial members came from all 48 states, the division acquired the nickname , which is the basis for its famed "AA" on the shoulder patch. The division later served in World War II where, in August 1942, it was reconstituted as the first airborne division of the U.S. Army and fought in numerous campaigns during the war.

    At the end of the movie "Sergeant York," he is seen at the Crossville TN train station. I lived in Crossville for a couple of years in my youth and they more or less claim York as a hometown hero. I've even been to the train station, but I have no idea if it was the same one in the movie (probably not). I've also seen his medals on the Yorktown Aircraft Carrier Museum in Charleston, South Carolina. His name is well known in my family. Thank you for once again for the wonderful history lesson!

  • @m00nm00n

    Basically most if not all Sabaton's songs are influenced by history. My guess and suggestion is next song should be 40:1 (40 to 1) which is also historically correct. At the time of posting this comment I know the live version of this song together with Amaranthe is coming up. I also suggest watching Amaranthe's own video/cover of this song, must say I personally prefer Amaranthe's version. Then again I have a soft spot for their vocalist (Elize Ryd).
    Another song I highly recommend with Sabaton is "En livstid I krig" Be aware that that one is in swedish, so hit that closed caption button when watching it ;)
    As for you going off on a rant about historical facts, I personally love it. I find history to be very interesting. I wish I was this interested in history when I went to school tho lol. as someone in my 40+ I guess its true, you appreciate history more the older you get.
    Currently waiting patiently for the next Nighwish reaction aswell ;)

    Check out the Carolus Rex album for a bunch of Swedish history. If you don't plan on covering it all I'd most of all like you to check out Carolus Rex (the song of the same name as the album) and Long Live the King. They're my favorites. All of the songs in that album have an English and a Swedish version, so make sure you're picking the one you want (in case you just want to hear the English ones). Also, if you see the song has a version by the user "Piscator", pick that. Those are great lyric videos.

    Historian (not working as one though) here:
    Machine guns where not *the* killer of the Great War, that doubtful honour goes to the pneumatic recoil artillery piece.
    Machine guns had been deployed to great effect in both the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905 and the 1st and 2nd Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913 and the Powers had taken notes, most MGs in their infantry battalions at the outbreak of war had the Russians, who had been on the receiving end in 04/05, and the Germans who had been taking notes on this war and the two Balkan Wars.
    The self acting Machine Gun had been around for a while already at that point, since the 1880s actually, mostly used in colonial actions ("Whatever they do, we have got: the *Maxim Gun* - and they have not!") and the Concept had been around since at least the 1860s (arguably since the organ gun of the 16th century ;) ) . See the Gatling Gun (a manual repeating weapon) and the Mitrailleuse of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71 (a volley gun essentially).
    Everything else is finde and *super* informed, love this way to react to the music, *I* do all the time ;).
    I'd say go for the *Music Video* for "Seven Pillars of Wisdom", *not* the lyrics video - it has Indy Neidell, he of *Sabaton History Channel* (Check it out, you'll *love* it!) , *The Great War* , *The Second World War* , *The Cuban Crisis* ... and so many great productions of youtube documentations as part of History Ghost productions company as T.E. Lawrence ;).
    Anyhow...

There is also a world of difference between heavy artillery, which is not something an airborne unit would be using directly, and mortars, which can be integral to an airborne unit. As it happens, I was in a signals unit supporting an airborne division where most of the unit was airborne qualified, and a fair bit of the training was centered on airdropping the vehicles and troops of our unit.
