Yes that was pure WW II with Sisko making a MacArthur-like "I Shall Return" speech to DS9's inhabitants before he beams out to the Defiant. Jadzia telling Worf she will marry him just before they separate to go on different ships. And when O'Brien asks Sisko what they will do when they join up with the Federation Fleet, it is Nog who growls, "make them (the Dominion) wish they never set foot in the Alpha Quadrant!" The whole Dominion War was a fine salute to the Allied peoples and soldiers of WW II.
@@davidallbaugh6858 Here is the thing, the Dominion War was like a World War, except in space, and it is similar to a galactic war. Plus, the factions that participated were the main and largest factions.
4:39 Damar: "Sir, the station's shields are holding. " Weyoun: "Impossible! Federation shields have always proven useless against our weapons." Dukat: "I've found it wise to never underestimate the Federation's technical skill or Captain Sisko's resourcefulness. Damar, bring us around for another pass."
Kira: Captain. As a Major of the Bajoran Militia, I must officially protest Starfleet's refusal to hand this station to my government. Sisko: Your protest is duly noted. Kira: Good. Now that that's out of the way... Kira Nerys, reporting for duty.
The wording is so very specific: she 'must' protest (not because she wants to, but because it's protocol)...and once she's got that done, she doesn't care what the Provisional Government has to say.
@@hobomike6935 Protested? I don't think so. I think "Season one Kira" would have tried to fight off *both sides!* Even if she had to do it, all by herself. 🏋️♀️
TOS and TNG were the perfect utopian version of our future. Where everyone is perfect. DS9 and VOY added the element of imperfections in characters, and that's why I like them.
TNG's characters were not that perfect either. The Borg taught the Federation and Picard a thing or two (see Family episode). Seasons 6 and 7 showed the complications with the Maquis and the Cardassians. The Wounded episode also showed a Federation crew going vengeance mode. Let's not forget the Drumhead episode or the Pegasus either. There are also many examples...
That Dominion bad guy music around 02.40 is epic! And the final music along with the scene of the federation fleet makes it one of the best Star Trek season endings for me!
I thoroughly LOVE the recurring motif for the dominion forces in this episode, very powerful and imposing and PERFECTLY complementing the site of dominion ships descending upon the station or troops pouring through the airlock into DS9.
7:15 “Sir, the minefield-“ “I have eyes, Damar.” “This isn’t going the way I planned.” “It’s a minor setback, Weyoun. Once we’ve taken the station, we’ll be able to dismantle the minefield without interference.” “Let’s both hope your confidence is justified.” “Damar, signal the reserves to prepare for a final assault.”
The back and forth between Weyoun and Dukat shows the difference between the overall Commander of the Dominion War effort, Weyoun, with the confidence in his plans and that of the tactical battlefield commander, Dukat, who knows that things in war seldom go as planned.
7:40 "The Dominion fleet is regrouping, and I'm detecting another wave of enemy ships entering Bajoran space." "What are your orders Captain?" "We've done all we can here. Notify all remaining starfleet personnel. We're evacuating the station."
11:15, Kira comes up from the turbolft to make a protest to Sisko about not letting her people get the station then says reporting for duty as Sisko smiles and nods at his first officer.
Kira: "Good. That's the last message this station will be sending out for a while; Computer: initiate Program Sisko 197." And so the Ensign Killer 300 was weaponized XD
At 11:20 and a bit later he pulls a Jerry Goldsmith. There's a certain electric "boing"-sound Goldsmith used in the 1970s and less so in later movies. Chattaway could've done without, you would hardly notice, I love him for that.
" I will not allow any more dominion reinforcments through the wormhole" Weyoun, "YOU...will not allow!" Sisko "You heard me.." i have used that attitude when dealing with difficult family, co-workers. Very powerful writing!
Pure World War II episode. Ftom Rom giving a Casablanca type speech to his new bride on why she needs to go to Bajor for the time being to Sisko giving a MacArthur like "I Shall Return" speech at Quarks to Jadzia telling Word she will marry him once the War is over to Sisko leaving his baseball behind.
@@drunkrumjack And, don't forget "Clayton", or Denny Crain's courtroom cronie. And the Geologist in the 1978 version of King Kong. But most of all, many people have overlooked his most important role... (No, not that inbred superstitious hillbilly in that episode of "The Outer Limits" ) Father Mulcahey in the original M.A.S.H movie! 📽️🚚
@@GFitzgeraldSewell I thought that ending wasn't the fleets converging on each other but the end of Call to Arms when the Defiant joins the Federation fleet. See: ua-cam.com/video/NQR1qLyG94w/v-deo.html
I will forever adore that epic shot of the Defiant and Rotarran flying to join the Federation-Klingon fleet, as they prepare to go to war.
Same here.
Yeah I remember watching that as a teenager when it came out. I was at the edge of my seat! 😲
Goosebumps every time...

"What is that?"
"A message from Sisko."
"I don't understand."
"He's letting me know… he'll be back."
Sisko, like General MacArthur shall return.
4:39 Damar: "Sir, the station's shields are holding.
"
Weyoun: "Impossible! Federation shields have always proven useless against our weapons."
Dukat: "I've found it wise to never underestimate the Federation's technical skill or Captain Sisko's resourcefulness. Damar, bring us around for another pass."
Jay chattaway and the other composers the unsung heroes of 90s trek. Besides the writers.
2:41
Weyoun: how much are you going to enjoy this moment?
Gul Dukat: *yes*
Oh this is brilliant. The scoring on DS9 was fantastic.
Kira: Captain. As a Major of the Bajoran Militia, I must officially protest Starfleet's refusal to hand this station to my government.

@@grahamfielding881 that's what good star trek is.
@@grahamfielding881 season 1 Kira would have protested the crap out of it. good to see her character developed so much since.
@@hobomike6935 Protested? I don't think so.

Even if she had to do it, all by herself. 🏋️♀️
best set of lines ever... and good show of how much Kira had come to respect Sisko over the years leading up to that moment.
TOS and TNG were the perfect utopian version of our future. Where everyone is perfect. DS9 and VOY added the element of imperfections in characters, and that's why I like them.
Voy did that? Where? When?
slighter I don’t recall the main characters doing it but the crew of the Equinox did
@@Mademoiselle_Katie Yup. Discovery and Picard sh*t over everything.

Tom M Agreed.
I miss Star trek.
Yes it is right up there with the Imperial March from Star Wars.
@@Dimmary 😢 me to0
Seeing the Defiant joining the federation fleet against the Dominion was an epic scene
"And then what?!"
"...and then we make the Dominion sorry they ever set foot in the Alpha quadrant."
"Cadet you took the words right out of my mouth."
I only wish Nog had said that around a bunch of Klingons so theyd all cheer and start chanting "FERENGI! FERENGI!"
@@alexyoon-sungcucina7895But, that would have been very disruptive, and the crew couldn't concentrate on their attack maneuvers. 😵
Defiant, just like the ship they are the crew of. Great ending to an episode about the beginning of the Great Dominion War.
this dominion theme is up there with the empires from star wars
I thoroughly LOVE the recurring motif for the dominion forces in this episode, very powerful and imposing and PERFECTLY complementing the site of dominion ships descending upon the station or troops pouring through the airlock into DS9.
love that part also, its on of those tracks that makes you want to fight alongside the federation during the conflict, atleast for me
@@mrmrsgamer6938 Me too.

Those last seconds. Together with Best of both worlds the Cliff hangers I will never forget.
Michael Diekmann agreed.
I can't believe you have this! The music is an absolute masterpiece. Thank you so very much. I love you.
11:15, Kira comes up from the turbolft to make a protest to Sisko about not letting her people get the station then says reporting for duty as Sisko smiles and nods at his first officer.
"Good now that that's over with Major Kira Nerys reporting for duty"
2:40 The music with the arrival of the Dominion and Cardasian fleet just gives me goose bumps :)
If Dukat wants the station back, he can have it!
In much the same way he left it... A lifeless hulk.
Initiate program Sisko-197
My friend, you are a legend! this is probably the best musical scene from DS9. Thank you so much for uploading it for us to enjoy.
Kira: "Good. That's the last message this station will be sending out for a while; Computer: initiate Program Sisko 197."
And so the Ensign Killer 300 was weaponized XD

15:24 gives me goosebumps every time, I remember this scene vividly when I was like 13/14 and being so fucking excited.
15:30 in the words of admiral Piett: "deploy the fleet."
" I will not allow any more dominion reinforcments through the wormhole"
Weyoun, "YOU...will not allow!"
Sisko "You heard me.."
i have used that attitude when dealing with difficult family, co-workers. Very powerful writing!
2:40 is my favorite part in this entire thing
Sisko: Why do I hear boss music?
@@TheJovian16 Sisko: "oh wait, it's _my_ accompanying theme song. I forgot I was the boss."
Sisko's crew: >_> "....is he freaking kidding us rn...."
I love that theme so much!
I love this cd set, so happy i purchased it when it came out
What is it called?
Pure World War II episode. Ftom Rom giving a Casablanca type speech to his new bride on why she needs to go to Bajor for the time being to Sisko giving a MacArthur like "I Shall Return" speech at Quarks to Jadzia telling Word she will marry him once the War is over to Sisko leaving his baseball behind.
1:12
Oh, and Worf, "Yes".
"Yes"?
Yes, when this is all over, I will marry you.
♥️👩❤️💋👨
"And if that doesn't give you incentive to stay alive. I do not know what will." A great incentive if there every was one !
This one score is enough to prove that the Trek music purge wasn't totally successful. Some amazing stuff managed to slip through
Every once in a while Jay Chattaway and Dennis McCarthy were able to sneak in some gems when Rick Berman wasn't paying attention. 😎
The 5 dislikes are from Cardassian and Jem Hadar oppressors
the best part at 15:22 !!! ;)
This still gives me goose bumps
"Now what?"
"Now we make the Dominion regret the ever sitting foot on the Alpha quadrant"
"Cadet... You took the words right of my mouth"
bremer1701
You and me both my friend. Purely epic!
The Silver Rook You just hit that awesome button on the knob.

Thank you man you have no idea how long I've looked for this

I'm here for 15:23 - The Fleet is on the move!!
This and The Dominion theme. RIP RENE aka Odo.
Mannn, it's such a jam. Love that part, especially in the episode.

Do you have more of these soundtracks from Ds9???
Do you have the Sacrifice of Angels soundtrack?
Truely excellent, in the utmost. Thank you for posting. : ) Does this music include "Sacrifice of Angels," the second part? It sounds as if it does.
Ok. I realize it is only from Call to Arms. I know that ending anywhere, with the fleets converging on each other! Yeah!!!!
