Uboat - "Sir we missed with both torpedoes! Should we dive and pull out of radar range?!" "Nah lets surface and broadside a destroyer with our 1 88mm cannon"
@@Jamie95326 Have you ever heard about "Jervis Bay"? Also, there were plenty of convoy battles, during which squadrons of escorts fought whole wolfpacks day and night - with plenty of action, drama and sacrifice. There was absolutely no reason to make a movie so ridiculous it began to be insulting to both sides.
Something about all of Sabaton's navy-related songs, they're just always really good. There's this, Midway, Dreadnought, Bismarck, they're just all really good songs.
My grandfather was a WW2 veteran and barely talked about the war. He was in European theater and lost a friend in the war and stole a gun from a bombed out German ammunition plant.He killed himself in 2005. Listening to Sabaton and watching their videos helps me understand what he went through and what he saw during the fighting.
A few interesting notes about the boats involved in this song- * SS Bury had quite an interesting life, spending WW1 in German hands having been captured in Hamburg at the start of the war. * USS Gleaves was later involved in the rescue of SS Adabelle Lykes when the latter vessel suffered from a smallpox outbreak on-board, the crew of the Gleaves bringing their vessel alongside in stormy conditions to transfer vaccines and emergency supplies. * USCGC Ingham went on to sink several U-Boats in its career and is still extant to this day, enjoying retirement in Key West Maritime Memorial Museum Kudos to Sabaton for this great piece of musical storytelling. The haunting, thrumming drive of the music really sets the atmosphere of battle in stormy seas..
Clearly the vast majority of commenters haven’t actually seen the movie. It’s made clear at that point in the movie that the U-boat has been forced to the surface by depth charge damage, which you don’t see here. They didn’t just engage in a broadside because it looked cool.
However if they did surface how and when would they have the time to climb out of the hatch load there 88MM gun and start shooting at a destroyer. if they really did thats beyond impressive if they didn't then it's completely bogus.
As a Navy vet, "general quarters, general quarters. all hands man your battle stations!" is still one of the most terrifying sounds I know. It's not even words to me anymore, it's sounds that mean "Fuuuuuuuuuuuck!).
Thank you for your service, USN 1967-1978 HM2c(FMF)/USN. Never served in a ship, was with embarked troops in the USS Juneau (LPD-10) and USS Schenectady County (LST-1185) in the mid 1970's. Got caught by a "mild" typhoon on the way to Japan. Really got seasick, an old salt took pity on me and had me eating saltine crackers with peanut butter and drinking split pea soup. I ended up getting over the seasickness before we landed on Numazu Beach, Tokyo Bay, Japan or at least that was what they were calling it back in the 1970's. It was a gravel beach, never got a chance to wonder around and look for interesting rocks. We made the landing in the Schenectady County, it was an interesting drive to get from the ship's tank deck to the beach, in our little M-718 ambulance. I heard the call to battle stations on the way back to Okinawa in the USS Juneau. They called us to our stations with "General Quarters, General Quarters all hands man our battle stations! This is not a drill!" This was repeated following someone blowing on a boatswain's pipe, on the forward bulkhead of the sickbay was the ammo hoist for the twin 3 inch automatics a couple decks above us. It was sort of scary to hear those rounds rattle up the hoist. Right before the call to general quarters we had been pinged by a Russian Akula. I wanted to be sick, we were on the same side as the sub was. We were rescued by a pair of DD's that came over the horizon at full speed. After that I had no desire to ever again go out in a ship. My next duty station after school was out in the middle of the Mojave Desert, the largest Naval Base on the west coast, around 3 million acres under the fence.
Navy vet too, as a submariner we don't do that. It is a flash of the DC lights and nervous calm look at everyone and start waking people up and too your stations as quiet as possible with haste.
As always, a true story! Convoy 92, was attacked by 9 submarines on its way from the British Isles to North America in May 1942. The allies lost 9 ships, Germany had no losses.
Actually the wolfpack Hecht had only 8 submarines and only 7 ships of the convoy sunk with one more ship being heavily damaged. But there was no loss among the Wolfpack.
@@tranquilthoughts7233 there had never been a gunfight in a Convoy, thats not real. Subs only attacked lonely ships with the 8,8 and they never attacked in daylight on submerge
I found this song on my phone about the same time as that Indonesian Submarine sank. In the submarine core, apparent there is a tradition when a submarine is missing or sinks, the crew is listed as being on “eternal patrol”. Not at deceased. Kind of poetic and beautiful in my book.🥲 I played this song several times on repeat in memory of those sailors.
Yup, it's also "no contact possible", as in they are tracking targets and don't want their position given away so STFU. Subs are a very fatalistic community in any navy.
Just found Sabaton by chance, these videos have totally hooked my 10 year old on all things military history. He wants to know all the history behind these videos. Thanks!
This movie - Greyhound - was really super - and thanks to sailors from free world (US, England and other countries), Europe could brings the material to win the WWII there

If you're into submarine movies, I cannot recommend The Enemy Below enough. I've seen it more times than I care to admit, and even knowing the ending, it doesn't stop the chills, and the tension, watching a Destroyer and a U-Boat play cat-and-mouse, each trying to get the upper hand. The ending is amazing, but I won't spoil it for you. Robert Mitchum and Curd Jürgens are the perfect match I think. Both serious actors, who portray the kind of intelligence, strategic thinking, and stern love for their crews one would expect from Captains of the era. There are no sudden rescues, no blazing standoffs. Just two crews, from two nations, trying desperately to survive the next five minutes.
It's clear in the film that the subs were forced to the surface after receiving heavy damage. There are many historical instances of brief engagements on the surface by crippled subs, both in the Atlantic theater and in the Pacific Theater, amongst all combatant navies. Most actions were against aircraft (which accounted for the overwhelming majority of sub kills). Only a handful against surface warships. A couple have been mentioned above in this thread. All were in an effort to buy time for the crew to abandon the sinking sub. The movie only bothers me on one point. The "Grey Wolf" captain taunting the Greyhound's captain over the wireless. This made my skin crawl it was so utterly ridiculous. This never, EVER, happened. I was surprised no one has mentioned this (that I saw).
The film does not correspond to historical events. In a real battle, not a single submarine was destroyed, while they destroyed 7 ships and damaged one. And yes, not when the submarine commanders did not contact the enemy destroyers and they were not threatened. An amateur movie....
Knowing that (apparently) the Kriegsmarine the least fanatical and some of the higher ups weren't nazis by choice (supposedly), indeed it's the only part that makes the least sense. As far as I know, U-boat captains adhered quite strictly to the laws of the sea and acted quite honorably.
This is very emotional for me, both my grandfathers were Merchant Marine in WWII. Both were sunk, one Pacific(mine),one Murmansk run, Uboat, pure luck rescue. Both respected the greater enemy, the ocean. And their opponents !
We know the real reason Ton Hanks was spending so much time looking through his binos over the heavy seas. We was looking for Wilson! ( if you are a real movie buff you will get this one!)
There a three reasons. 1. Submarines don’t do this. 2. The German crew has one guy who now s fluent English to taunt them. 3. The Germans went out of there way to find one out thousands or radio channels just to taunt them.
es ist so in jedem kriegsfilm werden wir so dum dar gestellt aber in wirklichkeit haben die sich in die hose geschissen wenn unsere jungs gekomm sind also es muss aufhören mit den scheiss lügen
Here's a story that's been lost to time: Rumors have it that as "Greyhound" was crossing the Atlantic, the crew heard something from the depth, it was Sabaton's "Wolfpack" and it was coming from the speakers of the dreaded German U-boat U-96 (aka. Das Boot) here's a video of the full engagement between the destroyer "Greyhound" and "Das Boot": ua-cam.com/video/gBh8ABuoYMQ/v-deo.html
Tom Hanks’ ship is fictional, it never existed. The Wikipedia page for Convoy ON 92 has no mention of a Mahan-class destroyer as depicted in the book and film. This movie as no specific relation to the song. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convoy_ON_92 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Good_Shepherd_(novel)
Convoy ON 92 is generally considered to have been a German victory because, between May 12, 1941 and May 18, 1941, the U-boats sank seven Allied merchantmen, totaling 41,955 tons of displacement, with no German losses. But by 1943, the US was launching three Liberty Ships a day, each of which displaced 10,000 tons, meaning that the sealift capacity it had taken the Germans a week to destroy was being replaced by the US approximately every 32 hours.
They where also churning out hunter aircraft and destroyers at record pace. one yard at height lit up sky so it never went dark at night in city and was making up to 3 per month. US production capacity was insane once the giant took up its forge and began to find its strength. an entire area of US was stripped bare of high grade iron ore to feed to warmachines demand.
Greyhound while not being entirely accurate was a fun movie. Personally I enjoyed and love it. The soundtrack, the action, the pacing, and the cast all did phenomenal. But Kidd (which portrayed Keeling/Greyhound) did amazing.
569 makes the contact and leads them U-94 scores a kill in the dark, 124 sinking 4 in two approaches 406 suffers failure on launch, U-169 makes the contact and leads them U-94 scores a kill in the dark, U-124 sinking 4 in two approaches 406 SUFFERS FAILURE ON LAUNCH AGAAAIN!
one of my uncles served on three U.S. destroyers in the Navy during WW2. 2 of them were sunk, he survived both. He was nicknamed "lucky" by his shipmates.
The guys have taken the niche of an accurate musical retelling of recent military history ... Bravo guys !!! It's objective, it's correct, it's historical ...
Last week there was a story on the History Guy about a plane attacking a U boat off the African coast. The plane was damaged by the sub's anti aircraft fire but still pressed on the attack. The depth charges destroyed the sub and the plane crashed into the sea killing all the crewmen. Only a handful of Germans survived and they used the raft that broke loose from the plane. The next day a recon plane saw the raft surrounded by sharks and radioed for help. If the raft didn't break loose, the Germans would have been eaten by the sharks and no one would have known the details of this battle. Check out the story. The pilot received a Victoria Cross on the testimony of the German survivors.
Bruh It's a destroyer The submarine surfaced on the side if a destroyer and fired machineguns at it even if it wasn't a sub you need to make sure your opponent doesn't face you from the side They have so many cannons that fire in that direction The crew of the sub(even the entire sub) would've been blasted If this was real life and the destroyer knew how to aim of course
@@randomcartoon8901 Not really. The depressions of the 5inch would have been a problem, but the subs crew would have been killed as they came out. Small arms would have been enough to take out the entire crew though, and maybe compromise the hull of the sub. All in all i think we can all agree that the engagement would not have happened like that.
@@rascototalwar8618 the 40mm's if loaded with ap shells could do the work and even with just flack shells it would be able to keep the u boat crew inside, the 20mms should make a good mess out of any crew as well
There is a lieutenant on board the Greyhound whose surname is "Rudel". Rudel in German means Group or Pack. The name of the tactics that the U-boats used was called "Rudel Tactics" and not "WOLFSRUDEL" (Wolf pack tactics) . I think makers hid a tiny Easter egg in that dudes name.
*The Greyhound is a radio signal name. [There was a USS Greyhound Mix-106 during WWII but it was an old transport ship the (U)SS Yale.] In the original story the ship was the USS Keeling Mohagan-class DD-548. [Actually the USS Keeling doesn't exist at all but the DD-548 does but the construction was cancelled.] In the movie the Greyhound still a signal name and the ship remains un-named Fletcher-class DD-548. The actual "ship" was based on the USS Kidd Fletcher-class DD-661
Those scenes are entirely bonkers. Why has Hollywood to dumb down everything it touches? I´m surprised they don´t board a submarine with a plank, sabres in hand in order "to plunder all the Rum"!
You are VERY wrong about this. While many Hollywood movies are retarded, historically there were close range surface battles between u-boats and destroyers. There were many reasons for that, both tactical and technical.
@@shaftoe195 can you explain it more detailed and/or reasonable about that?.. idk much about ships but i do know that sunking a ship with torpedo is more sane since the uboats is built for it and have underwater advantage
@@123dodo4 one of the things i belive he is talking about is Depth Charges, Destroyers are often equiped with almost shells/big granades they launch under water and detonate that is very efective against submarines, but if the submarine is on the surface they are not effective
@@shaftoe195 when there were close range surface battles between u-boats and destroyers, it was always unintentional on the part of the u-boat. they were heavily outgunned with no chance to win (except by luck) in such a scenario, so they would avoid it wherever possible. U-boats would do surface attacks (usually at night) on convoys, using both torpedoes and deck guns, because in that scenario they could do a lot of damage to a convoy while moving through it with the escorts having a difficult time locating and shooting at them without risking friendly fire events.
@@123dodo4 ww2 u-boats had very limited underwater time before they had to surface for recharging their batteries and were also much, much slower underwater than while moving on the surface. also, torpedoes are much more expensive than the shells for their deck guns, so if they could sink a merchant ship without too much risk to themselves (for example when encountering a lone ship, since not all ships traveled in convoys despite the risk) they might choose to not spend their limited supply of expensive torpedoes. Note: A single torpedo cost about 125k Reichsmark (about 50k USD at 1941 exchange rate) and the Type VII (most prevalent class) only carried 14 of them. The later war long range patrol sub Type IX had about 22 torps (small differences based on different variants of Type IX boats existed)
best submarine movie: "Das Boot", second best: "Hunt for Red October" (most realistic modern sub movie of the lot, am retired Navy and did patrol on submarine, so have first hand knowledge of ops.
Although I doubt any german Submarine captain would be so dumb to fire a torpedo head on, it would most likely bounce off and even if it hit, it would do minimal amounts of damage
@@yeettheheat yeah but for pure statics and some lucky from god to the biritsh it could hapend but is like the enemy shot down your enemy and you crash in the comand bunke and live
Love the power and menace that courses through the song, and they did a pretty good job of using the Greyhound footage to show the terrified reactions above, there isn't a modern movie showing the German side of things, so you've got to work with what you can find (Loved Das Boot, right hardware, but that was set after the glory days of the Wolf Pack, when the hunters had become the hunted, and that burnt-out, and bedraggled crew just wouldn't fit.) This former Tin Can sailor would humbly suggest that the Battle of Leyte Gulf, off Samar. would make an excellent subject for a Sabaton song, A handful of Escort Carriers and Destroyers finds the main force of the Imperial Japanese fleet bearing down on them, headed to obliterate the US forces landing in the Philippines. Rather than make a run for it, they play chicken with a force that outguns them 10:1 and WIN. The battle is not well known, because it was an embarrassment to Admiral Halsey, who was baited into leaving the landing zone unprotected, but it's definitely a historical fray worthy of song.
@@JohnDoe-qb6yh Yup! The saga of Taffy Three and the charge of the Johnston is right up there with the Winged Hussars and other historical moments of extreme badassery.
@@FusionAero i heard their story from the History channel way back ago. The awful shooting of the heavy japanese cruisers and battleships makes me to not wonder about why the japaneese lost the war.
@@JohnDoe-qb6yh It was the destroyer sailors' finest hour, but the circumstances in which it happened was an embarrassment to the admiralty, and the navy as a whole, so the story was suppressed, and didn't become widely known until the age of the internet. It's not that the Imperial Navy were bad shots so much as the situation Taffy 3 created for them. Before coming about, Commander Evans ordered the boilers to be red-lined, knowing that the fact it would wreck the engines in less than half an hour was irrelevant in this case. His ship had the never-before-seen technology of radar-directed guns and computerized fire control, enabling it to put rounds on target through smoke and haze, and during high-speed course changes. The Johnston came zigging and zagging in at 60+ knots as the Japanese blasted away at it with their main guns, which couldn't track fast enough to score a hit, while the smaller defensive guns that could have hit her were forced to contend with the airborne threat. It was like the biggest, baddest, bear in the forest being simultaneously mauled by honey badgers and swarmed by bees.
@@KingQwertzlbrmpf In the film they make it clear that during the initial surface battle that the U-boat is too close for their guns to aim down, in the second they hit the conning tower while it was under and forced it to surface.
I have to say it is really good I like the idea behind the both parts, the song and the movei are good working together. Even the ending fits not really, cause the germans did won this fight and the convoy was destroyed very heavy and only a few came with there live. But how I siad it is a good idea and you did a great job here I like it and you get a thumbs up.
I am stating a fact here, MOST of the U-Boats shown in the music video were damaged while underwater. Dicky damaged one with depth charges forcing it to the surface, it had no chance to escape so it broadsided the destroyers to last as long as possible AND deal as much damage as they could. Another U-Boat was struck by the Greyhound's main guns while submerged and had to surface because of the damage. A third was clapped due to a submarine hunter aircraft. MANY of those scenes were cropped out, don't base your review on this music video, music videos often have a lot of crops and cuts.
@@SovietOnion111 Like Welniok said, there are a lot of comments about it, despite the crops actually cutting out most of the context required to understand what's going on. A lot of people are being outright stupid and basing their entire opinion on the movie off of this one music video alone.
In the actual battle, no U-Boat was destroyed, while they took down 7 ships and one damaged. While I understand your comment, I feel the need to point out that they had to edit the video to make it somewhat fit what happened.
I love the sudden and explosive start, just like a U-boat attack, I also love the powerful and surging background music, it really makes you feel like you're in A destroyer pounding through the waves at full speed hunting down a sub
Take it from a destroyer (tin can) sailor - when the seas get really rough, you do "go through them", literally. Green water over the bridge gives a whole new meaning of respect for the sea.
Im fairly sure ive seen that convoy escorts captain somewhere else. Cant recall if it was at Normandy pinned down on the beach. In the jungles of southeast asia, or at an international airport on America's east coast. Taking off from cape Canaveral was it... Yesss a bridge in east germany i think..

To the controversial submarine manoeuvre: It's indeed risky. But the Waterbombs would immediately sink it if they would stay under water. Second point might be that they are lower than the Warboat, so maybe their cannons can't aim on them very well.
That did actually happen in at least one incident during WWII, albiet not with this convoy. The Clemson-class destroyer USS Borie successfully depth-charged U-256, which then surfaced at point-blank range to the destroyer. Borie *rammed* U-256 but the combination of a last-seond evasive maneuver by the sub and an interestingly timed wave caused Borie's bow to end up *on top of* the submarine's deck. From this position, the destroyer's guns could not depress enough to actually fire on the sub -- which meant the destroyer crew ended up fighting it out with small arms, ending with most of their weapons out of ammunition -- at the last moment, two Nazi sailors dashed for the U-Boat's quad machine gun mount, but one was killed by a throwing knife and the other was knocked overboard by a thrown shell casing.
God bless you sabaton not only does your music move you but also covered naval warfare so accurately you guys are genius love you all my international friends
Perfectly plausible: the sub is very low in the water, partially shielded by waves, and the Greyhound's crew is on their first crossing, green, overexcited and also very, very tired at that point. The uboat's crew are seasoned veterans, shooting at a very large target from a low mount. And they're still shown missing a couple of subsequent shots before the Greyhound finally nails 'em.
Way bigger problem: The Uboat surfaces and actually tries to engage the escort? That never happened. It's just pure suicide for a uboat to try and engage an escort ship in a surface battle. The Uboat would try to launch a surprise attack, preferably on the merchant ships if at all possible, try to inflict maximal damage and then escape preferably before the escort ships even know what's going on. Then trail the convoy until another opportunity presents itself, then strike again. Rince and repeat as long as possible and without taking too much risk.
I absolutely love how the lyrics tell pretty clearly of what happened while still being a fantastic song.

A few interesting notes about the boats involved in this song-
* SS Bury had quite an interesting life, spending WW1 in German hands having been captured in Hamburg at the start of the war.
* USS Gleaves was later involved in the rescue of SS Adabelle Lykes when the latter vessel suffered from a smallpox outbreak on-board, the crew of the Gleaves bringing their vessel alongside in stormy conditions to transfer vaccines and emergency supplies.
* USCGC Ingham went on to sink several U-Boats in its career and is still extant to this day, enjoying retirement in Key West Maritime Memorial Museum
Kudos to Sabaton for this great piece of musical storytelling. The haunting, thrumming drive of the music really sets the atmosphere of battle in stormy seas..
Thx for the fact.
To me the song feels like the weight of the ships and that's what makes it so good
USCGC Ingham is on my list of museum ships to visit, love all the WWII ones we have displayed in the US

Clearly the vast majority of commenters haven’t actually seen the movie. It’s made clear at that point in the movie that the U-boat has been forced to the surface by depth charge damage, which you don’t see here. They didn’t just engage in a broadside because it looked cool.

Thank you for your service, USN 1967-1978 HM2c(FMF)/USN. Never served in a ship, was with embarked troops in the USS Juneau (LPD-10) and USS Schenectady County (LST-1185) in the mid 1970's. Got caught by a "mild" typhoon on the way to Japan. Really got seasick, an old salt took pity on me and had me eating saltine crackers with peanut butter and drinking split pea soup. I ended up getting over the seasickness before we landed on Numazu Beach, Tokyo Bay, Japan or at least that was what they were calling it back in the 1970's. It was a gravel beach, never got a chance to wonder around and look for interesting rocks. We made the landing in the Schenectady County, it was an interesting drive to get from the ship's tank deck to the beach, in our little M-718 ambulance.
I heard the call to battle stations on the way back to Okinawa in the USS Juneau. They called us to our stations with "General Quarters, General Quarters all hands man our battle stations! This is not a drill!" This was repeated following someone blowing on a boatswain's pipe, on the forward bulkhead of the sickbay was the ammo hoist for the twin 3 inch automatics a couple decks above us. It was sort of scary to hear those rounds rattle up the hoist. Right before the call to general quarters we had been pinged by a Russian Akula. I wanted to be sick, we were on the same side as the sub was. We were rescued by a pair of DD's that came over the horizon at full speed. After that I had no desire to ever again go out in a ship.

As always, a true story! Convoy 92, was attacked by 9 submarines on its way from the British Isles to North America in May 1942. The allies lost 9 ships, Germany had no losses.
Actually the wolfpack Hecht had only 8 submarines and only 7 ships of the convoy sunk with one more ship being heavily damaged. But there was no loss among the Wolfpack.

I found this song on my phone about the same time as that Indonesian Submarine sank.
In the submarine core, apparent there is a tradition when a submarine is missing or sinks, the crew is listed as being on “eternal patrol”. Not at deceased.
Kind of poetic and beautiful in my book.🥲
I played this song several times on repeat in memory of those sailors.
Not only that on Christmas the navy will still send out a merry Christmas to the submarines that were sunk or lost
Yup, it's also "no contact possible", as in they are tracking targets and don't want their position given away so STFU. Subs are a very fatalistic community in any navy.

Lyrics:
To their own shore
Came the World War
Gleaves and Ingham leading the Bury west
Took the short way in
The long route back, Convoy 92
Bury, Gleaves and Ingham leading
Tankers to the west
And upon the North Atlantic
Lies the silence of the sea
And on the quietest night in the darkest hour
The Kriegsmarine appear
Above the surface it seems quiet and calm
Deep down below the wolfpack lurks
No, no, no
To their own shore
Came the World War
Gleaves and Ingham leading the Bury west
In their own track
Came the wolfpack
Gleaves led the convoy into the hornet's nest
At the crack of dawn the second day
Bury stands in flames
Half the convoy sunk or disabled
Heading back to shore
But below the North Atlantic
On the bottom of the sea
On the second night in the darkest hour
The Kriegsmarine returns
The wolfpack surface for a second time
To make the convoy face it's fate
No, no, no
To their own shore
Came the World War
Gleaves and the Ingham leading the Bury west
In their own track
Came the wolfpack
Gleaves led the convoy into the hornet's nest
Under fire
Under water
May 42 when Bury did fail the test
To their own shore
Came the World War
Gleaves and the Ingham leading them into death
569 makes the contact and lead them
U-94 scores a kill in the dark
124 sinking four in two approaches
406 suffers failure on launch
U-569 makes the contact and lead them
U-94 scores a kill in the dark

If you're into submarine movies, I cannot recommend The Enemy Below enough. I've seen it more times than I care to admit, and even knowing the ending, it doesn't stop the chills, and the tension, watching a Destroyer and a U-Boat play cat-and-mouse, each trying to get the upper hand. The ending is amazing, but I won't spoil it for you. Robert Mitchum and Curd Jürgens are the perfect match I think. Both serious actors, who portray the kind of intelligence, strategic thinking, and stern love for their crews one would expect from Captains of the era. There are no sudden rescues, no blazing standoffs. Just two crews, from two nations, trying desperately to survive the next five minutes.

I would rather have accurate cgi ships than the wrong ships
@@mikekemble958 tell that to the pacific fleet and the USS Enterprise.
It's clear in the film that the subs were forced to the surface after receiving heavy damage. There are many historical instances of brief engagements on the surface by crippled subs, both in the Atlantic theater and in the Pacific Theater, amongst all combatant navies. Most actions were against aircraft (which accounted for the overwhelming majority of sub kills). Only a handful against surface warships. A couple have been mentioned above in this thread. All were in an effort to buy time for the crew to abandon the sinking sub.
The movie only bothers me on one point. The "Grey Wolf" captain taunting the Greyhound's captain over the wireless. This made my skin crawl it was so utterly ridiculous. This never, EVER, happened. I was surprised no one has mentioned this (that I saw).
The film does not correspond to historical events. In a real battle, not a single submarine was destroyed, while they destroyed 7 ships and damaged one. And yes, not when the submarine commanders did not contact the enemy destroyers and they were not threatened. An amateur movie....

Convoy ON 92 is generally considered to have been a German victory because, between May 12, 1941 and May 18, 1941, the U-boats sank seven Allied merchantmen, totaling 41,955 tons of displacement, with no German losses. But by 1943, the US was launching three Liberty Ships a day, each of which displaced 10,000 tons, meaning that the sealift capacity it had taken the Germans a week to destroy was being replaced by the US approximately every 32 hours.
They where also churning out hunter aircraft and destroyers at record pace. one yard at height lit up sky so it never went dark at night in city and was making up to 3 per month.
US production capacity was insane once the giant took up its forge and began to find its strength. an entire area of US was stripped bare of high grade iron ore to feed to warmachines demand.

The guys have taken the niche of an accurate musical retelling of recent military history ... Bravo guys !!! It's objective, it's correct, it's historical ...
Last week there was a story on the History Guy about a plane attacking a U boat off the African coast. The plane was damaged by the sub's anti aircraft fire but still pressed on the attack. The depth charges destroyed the sub and the plane crashed into the sea killing all the crewmen. Only a handful of Germans survived and they used the raft that broke loose from the plane. The next day a recon plane saw the raft surrounded by sharks and radioed for help.
If the raft didn't break loose, the Germans would have been eaten by the sharks and no one would have known the details of this battle. Check out the story. The pilot received a Victoria Cross on the testimony of the German survivors.
Bruh imagine receiving a medal based on the testimonies of people you were supposed to kill
Sounds like a topic for a Sabaton song.
It does
Fun fact: If this were real life, every single crew member on the deck cannon and watch tower would've been disintegrated from the machine guns
Bruh
It's a destroyer
The submarine surfaced on the side if a destroyer and fired machineguns at it
even if it wasn't a sub you need to make sure your opponent doesn't face you from the side
They have so many cannons that fire in that direction
The crew of the sub(even the entire sub) would've been blasted
If this was real life and the destroyer knew how to aim of course
@@randomcartoon8901 Not really. The depressions of the 5inch would have been a problem, but the subs crew would have been killed as they came out.

Those scenes are entirely bonkers. Why has Hollywood to dumb down everything it touches? I´m surprised they don´t board a submarine with a plank, sabres in hand in order "to plunder all the Rum"!
You are VERY wrong about this. While many Hollywood movies are retarded, historically there were close range surface battles between u-boats and destroyers. There were many reasons for that, both tactical and technical.
@@shaftoe195 can you explain it more detailed and/or reasonable about that?.. idk much about ships but i do know that sunking a ship with torpedo is more sane since the uboats is built for it and have underwater advantage
@@123dodo4 one of the things i belive he is talking about is Depth Charges, Destroyers are often equiped with almost shells/big granades they launch under water and detonate that is very efective against submarines, but if the submarine is on the surface they are not effective
@@shaftoe195 when there were close range surface battles between u-boats and destroyers, it was always unintentional on the part of the u-boat. they were heavily outgunned with no chance to win (except by luck) in such a scenario, so they would avoid it wherever possible. U-boats would do surface attacks (usually at night) on convoys, using both torpedoes and deck guns, because in that scenario they could do a lot of damage to a convoy while moving through it with the escorts having a difficult time locating and shooting at them without risking friendly fire events.
@@123dodo4 ww2 u-boats had very limited underwater time before they had to surface for recharging their batteries and were also much, much slower underwater than while moving on the surface. also, torpedoes are much more expensive than the shells for their deck guns, so if they could sink a merchant ship without too much risk to themselves (for example when encountering a lone ship, since not all ships traveled in convoys despite the risk) they might choose to not spend their limited supply of expensive torpedoes. Note: A single torpedo cost about 125k Reichsmark (about 50k USD at 1941 exchange rate) and the Type VII (most prevalent class) only carried 14 of them. The later war long range patrol sub Type IX had about 22 torps (small differences based on different variants of Type IX boats existed)

Love the power and menace that courses through the song, and they did a pretty good job of using the Greyhound footage to show the terrified reactions above, there isn't a modern movie showing the German side of things, so you've got to work with what you can find (Loved Das Boot, right hardware, but that was set after the glory days of the Wolf Pack, when the hunters had become the hunted, and that burnt-out, and bedraggled crew just wouldn't fit.)
This former Tin Can sailor would humbly suggest that the Battle of Leyte Gulf, off Samar. would make an excellent subject for a Sabaton song, A handful of Escort Carriers and Destroyers finds the main force of the Imperial Japanese fleet bearing down on them, headed to obliterate the US forces landing in the Philippines. Rather than make a run for it, they play chicken with a force that outguns them 10:1 and WIN.
The battle is not well known, because it was an embarrassment to Admiral Halsey, who was baited into leaving the landing zone unprotected, but it's definitely a historical fray worthy of song.
Youre talking about the USS Johnston right? How they went out with a bang defending their escort carriers.
@@JohnDoe-qb6yh Yup! The saga of Taffy Three and the charge of the Johnston is right up there with the Winged Hussars and other historical moments of extreme badassery.
@@FusionAero i heard their story from the History channel way back ago. The awful shooting of the heavy japanese cruisers and battleships makes me to not wonder about why the japaneese lost the war.
@@JohnDoe-qb6yh It was the destroyer sailors' finest hour, but the circumstances in which it happened was an embarrassment to the admiralty, and the navy as a whole, so the story was suppressed, and didn't become widely known until the age of the internet.
It's not that the Imperial Navy were bad shots so much as the situation Taffy 3 created for them. Before coming about, Commander Evans ordered the boilers to be red-lined, knowing that the fact it would wreck the engines in less than half an hour was irrelevant in this case. His ship had the never-before-seen technology of radar-directed guns and computerized fire control, enabling it to put rounds on target through smoke and haze, and during high-speed course changes. The Johnston came zigging and zagging in at 60+ knots as the Japanese blasted away at it with their main guns, which couldn't track fast enough to score a hit, while the smaller defensive guns that could have hit her were forced to contend with the airborne threat. It was like the biggest, baddest, bear in the forest being simultaneously mauled by honey badgers and swarmed by bees.

I am stating a fact here, MOST of the U-Boats shown in the music video were damaged while underwater. Dicky damaged one with depth charges forcing it to the surface, it had no chance to escape so it broadsided the destroyers to last as long as possible AND deal as much damage as they could. Another U-Boat was struck by the Greyhound's main guns while submerged and had to surface because of the damage. A third was clapped due to a submarine hunter aircraft. MANY of those scenes were cropped out, don't base your review on this music video, music videos often have a lot of crops and cuts.
shut up dude we know this, no all of are stupid.
@@SovietOnion111 Like Welniok said, there are a lot of comments about it, despite the crops actually cutting out most of the context required to understand what's going on. A lot of people are being outright stupid and basing their entire opinion on the movie off of this one music video alone.
In the actual battle, no U-Boat was destroyed, while they took down 7 ships and one damaged. While I understand your comment, I feel the need to point out that they had to edit the video to make it somewhat fit what happened.
Uboats here are shown as extremely incompetent.
@@Bradgilliswhammyman how so?
Love how the song is about the dem u boats winning bit in this video them u boats get wrecked

This song gave me chills, especially towards the end
I love the sudden and explosive start, just like a U-boat attack, I also love the powerful and surging background music, it really makes you feel like you're in A destroyer pounding through the waves at full speed hunting down a sub
Take it from a destroyer (tin can) sailor - when the seas get really rough, you do "go through them", literally. Green water over the bridge gives a whole new meaning of respect for the sea.
I was blasting this song while playing the Wolfpack event on Warthunder. It was really fun using the subs
Im fairly sure ive seen that convoy escorts captain somewhere else. Cant recall if it was at Normandy pinned down on the beach. In the jungles of southeast asia, or at an international airport on America's east coast. Taking off from cape Canaveral was it... Yesss a bridge in east germany i think..

Сделано максимально идеально, спасибо за труды. Как раз недавно подсел на эту песню и мечтал, чтобы кто-нибудь сделал похожее видео. Получается я буду пересматривать его каждый день по 100 раз
клип вышел идиотский, по причине полной идиотии исходного фильма. Вот нормальный ua-cam.com/video/kWG5TtQBnRk/v-deo.html
@@tetrikovv Поподробней можно? Что идиотского именно в клипе (не в фильме) и что не вписывается в смысл песни?
@@Hardigun то-же. что и в фильме: действия как пл, так и конвоя. А в песне рассказывается про РАЗГРОМ вполне конкретного конвоя, коего РАЗГРОМА в клипе не наблюдается вовсе.
@@tetrikovv В песне поется о нападении "Волчьей стаи" на конвой. И из строчки "Half the convoy sunk or disabled" известно, что половина конвоя потоплена или повреждена.
@@Hardigun и как оный разгром отражён в клипе?;)
Спасибо конвоям и добровольцам, героически идущим в этот смертельный поход. Вы сделали огромный вклад в нашу общую победу. Мир праху английским и американским морякам, отдавшим жизни в борьбе с нацизмом. Спасибо вам! Sabaton спасибо вам, за великолепную музыку и видеоряд!
I suggest listening to other Sabaton song such as Winged Hussar, Ghost Division, and In The Name Of God(ISIS song)
Ах да, старые добрые времена... тогда еще можно было отличить друга от врага.

To the controversial submarine manoeuvre: It's indeed risky. But the Waterbombs would immediately sink it if they would stay under water. Second point might be that they are lower than the Warboat, so maybe their cannons can't aim on them very well.
That did actually happen in at least one incident during WWII, albiet not with this convoy. The Clemson-class destroyer USS Borie successfully depth-charged U-256, which then surfaced at point-blank range to the destroyer. Borie *rammed* U-256 but the combination of a last-seond evasive maneuver by the sub and an interestingly timed wave caused Borie's bow to end up *on top of* the submarine's deck. From this position, the destroyer's guns could not depress enough to actually fire on the sub -- which meant the destroyer crew ended up fighting it out with small arms, ending with most of their weapons out of ammunition -- at the last moment, two Nazi sailors dashed for the U-Boat's quad machine gun mount, but one was killed by a throwing knife and the other was knocked overboard by a thrown shell casing.
Спасибо союзникам за помощь и поддержку в битве против коричневой чумы. Честь и слава погибшим и живым морякам Великобритании и США.

I fell asleep with asmr on and this came in couldn't sleep after that ffs
This is why you always let autoplay off.
I am Impressed! .... .......Wow........
Love You Guys ! 😄🙃💖👍👍👍
destroyer: shot to submarine everything what it has and miss all shots
submarine: first shot and hit
Perfectly plausible: the sub is very low in the water, partially shielded by waves, and the Greyhound's crew is on their first crossing, green, overexcited and also very, very tired at that point.
The uboat's crew are seasoned veterans, shooting at a very large target from a low mount. And they're still shown missing a couple of subsequent shots before the Greyhound finally nails 'em.
Way bigger problem: The Uboat surfaces and actually tries to engage the escort? That never happened. It's just pure suicide for a uboat to try and engage an escort ship in a surface battle. The Uboat would try to launch a surprise attack, preferably on the merchant ships if at all possible, try to inflict maximal damage and then escape preferably before the escort ships even know what's going on. Then trail the convoy until another opportunity presents itself, then strike again. Rince and repeat as long as possible and without taking too much risk.
@@KingQwertzlbrmpf 1) This did happen and 2) The uboat in the movie didn't actually have a choice in the matter

Indeed. IRL, most people would never fire Torpedoes HEAD ON, because they would either miss or literally just scrape the side.
Sabaton is very good band
