@@vasakvasa2929: Several American commanders ordered major attacks in the last few hours. In one battle over 800 casualties were sustained taking the small French town of Stenay because it had mineral baths and Gen. William M. Wright though his men would enjoy a bath later that day. In fact the loss of life was so bad that Gen. Pershing had to face a House Committee to explain why American soldiers had died taking ground they could have just walk onto after 11.00am. Pershing lied about when he knew of the Armistice signing and in the best traditions of US politics the whole matter was covered up. Officers on all sides, many thinking of future postings, kept the war going and thousands were killed and wounded within a few hours of peace.
sentinel531 that wasn't the brits it was he Americans because they just joined the war and the American officers wanted to see to action so they could say they they helped when they got back. So many of the officers didn't tell their soldiers so they didn't know. As a result many Americans died because they weren't told that the war will have ended but were told to put full force into the battle. So many of them rushed the Germans and got killed
My German maternal grandfather fought in WWI. He was so disgusted with the war that when the armistice came he threw his rifle to the ground, turned east, and walked home.
But your grandfather volunteer to join in the army in the first place so for what he felt disgusted when war started nobody forced him to join in ?? Unless he was a civilian not a soldier than he can felt digusted when war started
@@aizatjunaidi69 these were lads, thinking of honor and glory in war. Do ya think they would teach them about the reality of war? Of course not, nobody would volunteer if they did. So he does absolutely have the right to be disgusted
In France, every village has its "monument to the fallen" with the names of WWI soldiers KIA engraved on it. A couple weeks ago, I was looking at such a monument (I often do), where the date was mentioned as well. There were maybe forty names on it. The last was dated December 10 1918 . I guess that he died from wounds he had sustained one month after the armistice. But the one before him was dated November 10 1918. Killed maybe not on the last minute, but on the last day of the war. It immediately made me think of this video. For the record, he was called Jean Guat.

The Germans answered with their stormtrooper tactics, and the British began to develop early combined arms between tanks, arty, and infantry. Matter of fact the only country by 1918 that still used the mass attack on an entrenched position was the United States, since we choose not to accept advice from the British and French on how the tactics had changed.

I have a soft spot for soldier as my dad is a war veteran who served on the front lines. Soldiers are just people, with dreams and lives to live. Just being ordered by generals who dont care about them. I love all soldiers and those who served in the military. Respect those who died, everyone.

The concept of ending a war at a specific time is ludicrous!! How many lives were lost in those few crucial hours? Even if they agreed on an immediate seize fire, how long for the news to get out to everyone? The last scene of the German soldier basically saying, "f-this, I'm done. Shoot me or don't"!! Very touching.
They should really make a video about the old contemptibles of Mons. It said that some of these soldiers from the very start of the first british/german encounters in August 1914 survived, only to die on the very last day trying to take Mons again as a “nice price before the ending of the war” and that last quotation is of course what some of their officers thought. Truly sad.

My Great Uncle was 17 when he enlisted in the US. Marines in 1917. He was a replacement machine gunner and apparently was very good and was chosen to demonstrate a new machine gun before President Wilson. His squad was rewarded with a ride on the Presidents yacht. According to letters other marines sent my great grandmother, on November 1st, 1918 he was shot in the hand but refused medical attention and remained at his machine gun post. A short time later, an artillery shell landed on their post killing 3 Marines (odd to think of U.S. Marines in France in WWI but they were there). Howard Jarrett was awarded 4 Bronze Battle Stars and 2 Silver Stars during his time in France. There is a book, "Decorated Marines of the Fourth Brigade in World War I" and he is on page 156. My great grandmother saved all his letters in a little wooden box along with her gold star armband as well as the telegram advising her of his death and the various certificates, commandant of the Marine Corps, General Pershing, and various French certificates. The marine corps thought the "IA" of Iowa abbreviation looked like "CA" (I could see it happening using a serif font and a bad typewriter ribbon) and sent his death telegram to Oakland California. Great Grandma started sending frantic telegrams when the war insurance office contacted her to pay out his life insurance policy and she hadn't heard from him in months. Eventually the marines contacted her in Oakland Iowa in 1919. The marines put her in contact with some of the soldiers from his unit (those letters, also in the box, was how we heard about him being shot earlier in the battle but refusing medical attention). He and the other 2 soldiers were buried there they fell, but as you might imagine, artillery is not kind to the body. Great Grandma complained they sent him home in a jar (I'm assuming the jar was inside a casket). He's buried in a little cemetery in Oakland IA. Great Grandma outlived everyone from her generation as well as her daughter who was caring for her and visited us from time to time. We've sent scans of all the letters and certificates to the Iowa Historical Society but lost contact with them during the pandemic, looking to find a home for the little box other than a closet here and we still have his dress blues, although they aren't as bright blue as they might have been 100 years ago. With 4 bronze battle stars and 2 silver stars he was definitely the over achiever of the family (my dad received 1 bronze battle star for ground combat, Iwo Jima). My son is currently on active duty and thinks the second silver star might have been because the purple heart didn't exist until the 1920's. Anyway, between my son and I we have posted scans of the originals and one of the letters on find a grave. My parents always thought he was killed after the war ended because of how late the official notification came, but he was killed 17 days before the war ended. He was close to making it.
remember also all those men who died well after the war had ended, as a result of wounds or in my grandfather's case, dreadfully damaged lungs following gas exposure.
@Andrew Riela the US lost 100,000 or so in 9 months canada lost 270,000 or so in 4 years and they were the spearhead of most British ops after vimy ridge Casualties not just deaths
@@stephaniehutchinson6740 That's Henry Gunther. Dumb fuck was recently demoted and tried to get promoted back by being a hero. Got himself killed instead.
I have an elder in my family who was part of a war (not sure which). He stepped on a land mind… and well, you know. It’s quite devastating that these men had to endure such painful and harsh punishment of war. Now’a’days war would just be “I sunk your battle ship” kind of deal… it’s upsetting. God bless those men who fought to protect our country. ❤ may you rest in peace ❤️
Definitely not WW1 then since landmines hadn't been invented yet but there were some primitive ones. These mines consisted of an artillery shell being buried faceup so if a soldier step on it it would explode.
Beautiful scene. One critique: the American soldier who got shot by the German machine gun had a M1903A3, with the rear peep sight, a modification that was not seen until the Second World War. For the period the rifle would have had a further-forward leaf sight, although more likely a different rifle altogether, the M1917, which outnumbered the M1903 at least 3 to 1
In 2004 i talked to a friend of my grandmother. He was born 1910. he witnessed the ending of the war. he lived in Augsburg (city in bavaria) . One day 1918 .. the Main Street was deserted , suddenly men appeared. German soldiers walking .. walking home. He said thousands, thousands passed his home. Everyone laid food and gave water. The passing columns took around one week until the last men passéd the house .
When i was a young pastor I visited a man who had fought in WW1. He was dying and wanted forgiveness for killing a German soldier after the war had ended. He had startled the young German and the German charged him with a bayonet. The dying vet told me he chambered a round and fired point blank killing the young German. He remarked that the German had this look of shock as he stood for a moment and then fell backwards. The young German appeared to be perhaps 15 or 16. This American soldier had grieved the rest of his life thinking he should have parried and disarmed the young soldier, telling him the war had ended. Everyone who heard this story assured him he had done nothing wrong and encouraged him to let it go. However, as he lay dying in 1982, he still felt the guilt. So I shared a Scripture from 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." I encourged him to confess his sin but also embrace the forgiveness. He did and wept. Now I personally did not think he had done any wrong but HE DID!. So I tried to let him pass in peace. He did.
I think the German kid probably didn't know the war was over. This man defended himself and this is not murder. But I can understand the guilt he would have. RIP to both.
That's excactly what happened. There were several COs that hadn't been in command very long that felt they just HAD to have some "glory" before the war ended.
Thats what happened with Henry Gunther. He was once a sergeant but got demoted to a private for writing a letter to a friend encouraging him to dodge the war draft as much as he could. He was desperate to regain his rank before the war ended and decided the best way to do this was by bayonet charging a German MG post ALONE one minute before the war ended. Theres a fine line between Bravery and Stupidity...I know what side of the line he was on.
Amazing film, somebody needs to do a feature version. The last two hours. My only gripe is the music reminded me too much of the Davinci Code. Wondering if they used it as a temp track and the composer just made a sadder version. Happens all the time in Hollywood.
Sad fact, 11k soldiers died one day before the war ended all because of commander Ferdinand Foch who refused to stop the war right away after the treaty.
Also, some American pilots who had just been posted to frontline squadrons were frustrated at not having been able to "bag a Hun". So, they go up and strafe retreating German troops WELL after 11AM.
After recently learning to understand French, hearing french spoken within the soldiers and being able to understand them really adds up on all the emotions… RIP to all that sacrificed themselves.

I have a soft spot for soldier as my dad is a war veteran who served on the front lines. Soldiers are just people, with dreams and lives to live. Just being ordered by generals who dont care about them. I love all soldiers and those who served in the military. Respect those who died, everyone.

They put the Armistice to 11 so that all units could be informed of it and to my understanding all units were informed of it at that time.

Heritage Hey young man you spell nae nae with an e look it up!
That will be hard specialy if Hitler onvades your country and you are done for.
The concept of ending a war at a specific time is ludicrous!! How many lives were lost in those few crucial hours? Even if they agreed on an immediate seize fire, how long for the news to get out to everyone? The last scene of the German soldier basically saying, "f-this, I'm done. Shoot me or don't"!! Very touching.
They should really make a video about the old contemptibles of Mons. It said that some of these soldiers from the very start of the first british/german encounters in August 1914 survived, only to die on the very last day trying to take Mons again as a “nice price before the ending of the war” and that last quotation is of course what some of their officers thought.
Truly sad.

My Great Uncle was 17 when he enlisted in the US. Marines in 1917. He was a replacement machine gunner and apparently was very good and was chosen to demonstrate a new machine gun before President Wilson. His squad was rewarded with a ride on the Presidents yacht. According to letters other marines sent my great grandmother, on November 1st, 1918 he was shot in the hand but refused medical attention and remained at his machine gun post. A short time later, an artillery shell landed on their post killing 3 Marines (odd to think of U.S. Marines in France in WWI but they were there). Howard Jarrett was awarded 4 Bronze Battle Stars and 2 Silver Stars during his time in France. There is a book, "Decorated Marines of the Fourth Brigade in World War I" and he is on page 156. My great grandmother saved all his letters in a little wooden box along with her gold star armband as well as the telegram advising her of his death and the various certificates, commandant of the Marine Corps, General Pershing, and various French certificates. The marine corps thought the "IA" of Iowa abbreviation looked like "CA" (I could see it happening using a serif font and a bad typewriter ribbon) and sent his death telegram to Oakland California. Great Grandma started sending frantic telegrams when the war insurance office contacted her to pay out his life insurance policy and she hadn't heard from him in months. Eventually the marines contacted her in Oakland Iowa in 1919. The marines put her in contact with some of the soldiers from his unit (those letters, also in the box, was how we heard about him being shot earlier in the battle but refusing medical attention). He and the other 2 soldiers were buried there they fell, but as you might imagine, artillery is not kind to the body. Great Grandma complained they sent him home in a jar (I'm assuming the jar was inside a casket). He's buried in a little cemetery in Oakland IA. Great Grandma outlived everyone from her generation as well as her daughter who was caring for her and visited us from time to time. We've sent scans of all the letters and certificates to the Iowa Historical Society but lost contact with them during the pandemic, looking to find a home for the little box other than a closet here and we still have his dress blues, although they aren't as bright blue as they might have been 100 years ago. With 4 bronze battle stars and 2 silver stars he was definitely the over achiever of the family (my dad received 1 bronze battle star for ground combat, Iwo Jima). My son is currently on active duty and thinks the second silver star might have been because the purple heart didn't exist until the 1920's. Anyway, between my son and I we have posted scans of the originals and one of the letters on find a grave. My parents always thought he was killed after the war ended because of how late the official notification came, but he was killed 17 days before the war ended. He was close to making it.

I have an elder in my family who was part of a war (not sure which). He stepped on a land mind… and well, you know. It’s quite devastating that these men had to endure such painful and harsh punishment of war. Now’a’days war would just be “I sunk your battle ship” kind of deal… it’s upsetting. God bless those men who fought to protect our country. ❤ may you rest in peace ❤️
Definitely not WW1 then since landmines hadn't been invented yet but there were some primitive ones. These mines consisted of an artillery shell being buried faceup so if a soldier step on it it would explode.

The Frenchmen who messaged about the soup, was a real man. He died at 10:45AM, just 15 minutes before the end of WWI. His role was a messenger.
There is actually several hundreds of soldiers who died hours and days after the official peace deadline.

Beautiful scene. One critique: the American soldier who got shot by the German machine gun had a M1903A3, with the rear peep sight, a modification that was not seen until the Second World War. For the period the rifle would have had a further-forward leaf sight, although more likely a different rifle altogether, the M1917, which outnumbered the M1903 at least 3 to 1

My great, great uncle Fred died in WWI in May 1917. I wish he'd lived to see this day
In 2004 i talked to a friend of my grandmother. He was born 1910. he witnessed the ending of the war. he lived in Augsburg (city in bavaria) . One day 1918 .. the Main Street was deserted , suddenly men appeared. German soldiers walking .. walking home. He said thousands, thousands passed his home. Everyone laid food and gave water. The passing columns took around one week until the last men passéd the house .
When i was a young pastor I visited a man who had fought in WW1. He was dying and wanted forgiveness for killing a German soldier after the war had ended. He had startled the young German and the German charged him with a bayonet. The dying vet told me he chambered a round and fired point blank killing the young German. He remarked that the German had this look of shock as he stood for a moment and then fell backwards. The young German appeared to be perhaps 15 or 16. This American soldier had grieved the rest of his life thinking he should have parried and disarmed the young soldier, telling him the war had ended. Everyone who heard this story assured him he had done nothing wrong and encouraged him to let it go. However, as he lay dying in 1982, he still felt the guilt. So I shared a Scripture from 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." I encourged him to confess his sin but also embrace the forgiveness. He did and wept. Now I personally did not think he had done any wrong but HE DID!. So I tried to let him pass in peace. He did.
That is incredible. Thank you for sharing that
Wow. What a sad and beautiful story. Thanks for sharing that.
Was killing that German soldier a good thing?
Dang that's tough but it was either him or the kid
I think the German kid probably didn't know the war was over. This man defended himself and this is not murder. But I can understand the guilt he would have. RIP to both.

That's excactly what happened. There were several COs that hadn't been in command very long that felt they just HAD to have some "glory" before the war ended.
Thats what happened with Henry Gunther. He was once a sergeant but got demoted to a private for writing a letter to a friend encouraging him to dodge the war draft as much as he could. He was desperate to regain his rank before the war ended and decided the best way to do this was by bayonet charging a German MG post ALONE one minute before the war ended.

Sad fact, 11k soldiers died one day before the war ended all because of commander Ferdinand Foch who refused to stop the war right away after the treaty.
