i have been to many different countries italy germany britian turkey france and poland just for a few but no place is like america no place can you be free in the real sense of the word from sea to shining sea GOD BLESS THE USA
this song is amazing it makes me remember my great grandpa a WWII sniper (moms side) and my other great grandpa (dads side) a landing craft driver on D-Day both brave hearted men both lived for and died for this sweet land 311,591,917 men women and children call home even though we all have our differences we all fight for a common idea freedom which all the world longs for yet we learn nothing from men and women who fight for this sweet land
ha i always think of my football team when i hear this...I know its much different from what the song was meant for, but it gives you that same "band of brother" bonding experience.
I miss my gramps , He was a Brave ,Intelligent man with many stories to tell, I still have the medals he passed on to me ... & God bless all those brave soldiers even our enemies/ former ...cause deep down we're all human ,trying to survive
I swear to god that this song was played on an advert to a documentary on the history channel; please someone confirm this so I don't go mad, (it was about war in the atlantic it showed a lot of warships is all I can remember about it).
my grandfather past away a few years ago. i miss him more then anything in the world. he was a strong soldier that survived of the war and a great man. every time i here this i cry and think about his life and wish i could talk to him again.
1:17 the best pictures of all times... everytime I see that picture it make me think about the cruel and stupid that men can be, just to get what they want.
This song always makes me wander what it had been like to be a soldier on the frontline of say omaha beach or a paratroopers its the best song ever this should be our countrys National Anthem
damn..every time I hear this song I start thinking about stalingrad ,d-day and i start again reading sven hassel books....greetings from croatia...sry for bad english
Christoper Lennertz is a wonderful man! not personly, but by the music.
He music is inpressive made, and can make people cry... ( I do almost cry evertytime.. and its like the song gets better and better and more feeling song everytime i hear it..) - ( and yes, im a damn boy that cry to such a music like this. )
And Christopher is the man!
Our soldiers should follow the stars, see Jesus! See the world!
are you retarted? the allies all busted their asses to claim this victory the USSR was "part" of the victory you cant just claim your own victory the other countries lost men to the war so they get credit too dont even think that USSR did all the work thats just rediculous and stupid.....
@orkai5555 USSR got alot of the credit because half of Russia's country was occupied by Germany and they fought back and won it back.They were the ones who won the war in Europe.
this song makes me regret playing all the killing video games because they didn't get to respawn or restart the mission it was over for them and they had no chance of getting back at the enemy thats why i feel guilty when i hear this song...God Bless The Allies!!!!!
@Briselance Both of you are wrong, USSR won the war in Europe, and the US won the war on the pacific, obviusly a lot of countries were also in the war, but without those 2 countries, the english, the french and the polish etc, would'nt have won the war
There are not such things as Good And Evil. A war is a conflict of Interests mainly of multinational companies. Forget all these songs that hymn the dead. A war cant be Epic. WAKE UP!
"A war is a conflict of Interests mainly of multinational companies."
Yeah, sure. But not a single drop of liberty, independance, heh ? What about the 1776 war for USA ? What about war of 1870 for France and Germany ? What about both World Wars for european countries and for the entire world ?
"Forget all these songs that hymn the dead"
So you want us to forget about those who died at Bazeilles, Verdun, Dixmude, in the Dardanelles, in the Somme, in Dunkirk, in Guadalcanal, etc ?
Your disrespect towards the dead is just disgusting. You write "Wake up !", but you should better have a rest and go to sleep. That might clear your ideas. I hope.
Forget those songs ? I think that, between the dead and you, you're most likely to go forgotten. But well, us civvies will all do that way, after all.
all wars start with agression, and, sometimes, a few good men stand up to fight it. World War Two was the last great war, it was a war where good triumphed, where evil was crushed, and now, with the fall of the evil empire, we are better for it. Let there be 1000 years of peace in Europe ! my vids r good 2
The more I think about the war and what passes for war now, the more I realise that the bravery wasn't in the volunteering - although that's not to discredit the one's that stepped forward.
No, these days you're career army because you want to be. Back then, you were a coward if you weren't. There were no protests, because it was something that needed to be done. I don't think we'll ever NEED to fight another war, and if we do, we're going to lose. Because we're too used to opting out.
Who wasnt betrayed in war, for example Finland was betrayed too, Soviet union had 1.5 million soldiers and Finland had 350 000 soldiers, but still we fought and remained our independence. Every country has to protect themselves and stop waiting for help. That happend to dutch and many other countries which where conquerd by Germany or Soviet Union.
War is a way for humnas to deal with probalems. Power corrupts which also starts a war and just basically the human mind thinking it better than everyone else. We will never be able to change you just cant change a thought And pluse its just a natural instinct which will never change as well. Animals for instance are always at war and think of this they are less intuectuall than us and we cant evan resist the thought of violence. War is something we will have to get used to to ever live on
France are one pussys scared country look at ww2 they only know how to fight when they defeted"
And that comes from a Polish ... have you fared better than us, during WW2 ?
Oh no. You surely didn't. So what's the point with you saying "your country is pussy scared" ? Ever heard about Dunkirk, mate ? Ever heard about the French ground troops and naval artillery covering the reembarkment of mostly British troops ?
man learn history where was France when we need them they sit on chear so scarry to come but they write promise to come when we will be attacked so? they coward , France was fighting only with germans we was attacked from both sides , are u pround from u country mate who obligate to help us and when hitler attack they think"hm maybe he will not come to us" its a fuccking shame man
@Briselance learn history man ,Poland was attacked from both sides and Franche and England puussys who obligate to help Poland when they will be attacked was sitting on chear wathing how ppl die and thinkink good maybe hitler dont attack us we so scared , and u proud from that fact? if they have honour and help hitler should loose in 39
What self-respecting government - what body of people claiming to represent the interests of their people - would honestly SEEK war?
It's unfair to deride Chamberlain as he often is. He was looking out for this country and trying to avoid a war. America is too young a nation to have learned the value of peace.
What self-respecting and responsible government would try to avoid a war at all cost, even though they know war cannot be avoided ?
Surely Chamberlain was a intelligent man. But still, by trying this jive of economic appeasment, he made an error, which he himself recognized later.
Besides, between 1933 and 1939, the decision to be made by european democratic governments was whether to strike nazi Germany first or waiting for the first blow.
We chose the second option. We gave away Czechoslovakia to nazis without trying to defend it, foolishly thinking A.H. would stop after that.
We wanted to save peace at any cost, even at the cost of our honor.
What was the result of this pacifist policy of the 20's and 30's ? What was the result of constant diminution of military budget, in Western democracies, at that time ?
The only result was defeat and dishonor for Belgium, France, Netherlands, Luxemburg, Denmark and Norway.
I don't say war is beautiful. I just say that, sometimes, maybe more often that we are willing to admit, it's just "shoot and kill or be shot and killed", and not "shoot or don't shoot".
@Briselance One can understand why they did not defend Czechoslovakia. The Germans at the time had such a large and intimidating military; any single nation that simply stood up and said "no" would been the next on their list. You would need a reason to rally all nations to come in and help, and boy did Adolf do that. The entire world also reasoned that the Germans would stop; they didnt know that Hitler would be insane enough to pursue leadership over the whole world.
actually 1 england arent pussys! 2 we declared war on the krauts as soon as they set foot in poland! 3 you yanks didnt do a fucking thing either!!!!!! And we english fought back in the bob so you learn history man!!!
@ramsanta2 ok yes they did but didnt do much about it until it was to late when the Germans had a smaller force. And yes we basically sat back because we thought it wasnt a threat which was a great goverment at work.... somewhat at the time.
Well shit, since the Americans stepped up in the nick of time - four years after the war started and the atrocities commenced - I guess the world still owes them a favour for it.
Fuck off, retard. You're confusing 'football' with war again. If the United States had a scrap of honour it wouldn't have sat out the Great War, it would have raised an eyebrow the minute Hitler was coming to power like everyone else did, and it wouldn't be wading around in the Middle East for nothing now.
Just because some people sue for peace instead of measuring their cocks against everyone else doesn't make them less honourable or cowardly. I sometimes think that life under Germany would not be so different from living with the US of A at the helm now, the whole world is in your shadow.
Now the UK follows it around like a gelded dog. I suppose we should be proud of that instead?
"You're confusing 'football' with war again. If the United States had a scrap of honour it wouldn't have sat out the Great War, it would have raised an eyebrow the minute Hitler was coming to power"
I think you're being a bit too harsh there, but you still score a point.
"like everyone else did"
Well, actually, almost no one raised an eyebrow when Hitler came to power.
Besides, we should have raised way much more than an eyebrow.
May God rest those Souls of our troopers. there will never be another war like this one... this one was the great world war... i am proud to have my grandfather serve in this war...
We are people we all made mistakes, only Hitler made the biggest ofcourse. He thought he could qonquer da world :)...
He betrayd he's own Allies wich turned to the other side.
I live in The Netherlands and i still got ma grandparents who fought in the war against the germans. All i can say is, IF there is a another war then i surely will fight into it :)
Holland was betrayed be there own cabinet if holland would not be betrayed they could of hold of the germans for long enough so britian or france could attack right trough holland. they where good soldiers but betrayed
What kind of a real answer is that ? And who are you so-called "real leaders", hmm ? Another world domination/hidden world government conspiration theory we have here, huh ?
Was WW1 declared because of money ? Like hell, it was !
Same question for WW2 ? Same answer. No proof of that crappy cliche "money so dominates all of the world and ideals are absolutely naught"
@skidude777 why do we have war. because we need war. all things we achieved to this day this time and age are thanks to war. war gives us strenght and wisdom and reminds us why were here.
I still fail to see how people can justify the murder of thousands of people during times of war. If it's so wrong now, why is it any better during war? Great song.
wow, i love the music from this game, it fits so well with the WW2 theme. If anyone really liked this vid, please check out my WW2 video, it is very emotional like this one, great job!
@McBobthestickfigure my grandpa was in the army he told me about the wars and were it stands for. he also said that he had to go not becaus he wanted it for money or the experience. he did it becaus it had to be done
@McBobthestickfigure Eh that was only a fraction, its not exactly like you can just stick around at home when drafted... Though I do agree that many of those who fought believed in their cause :P
@McBobthestickfigure bravery? Ask them now if its worth it to die for some dictator, or for a f***g country. DO you think they "volunteered" to fight at war? omg ..
@McBobthestickfigure I wondered where the patriots had gone from my own country - it makes me happy beyond measure that there are more beyond my own borders, supporting their soldiers.
@McBobthestickfigure I have to disagree, They had no choice. They couldn't just have said "Nah, I don't feel like going." If you weren't on Death's Door, off to war you went.
@McBobthestickfigure "They could've stayed home, raised their families, and lived a normal life". If you actually bother to read history, which you and 26 others probably don't, you'll learn that there was this thing called a d-r-a-f-t. Therefore, NO. wrong. please try again.

Thats truth man i hope someday i could sacrifice myself for my country i didnt have much to live for anyway but when i die itll be with 20 of the cocksucking scum i take with me R.I.P. heroes of war
This makes me wonder why must we-as humans-waste so many lives in petty fighting? Just so we can have bragging rights? Or over some useless junk like "My country is better then yours".
Hardly. The main reason the war became a World war was that the European superpowers were divided into two main alliances, the Central powers (Germany/Austria-Hungary/Ottoman Empire/Bulgary) and the Triple Entente (UK/France/Russia). When Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia (due to the assassination of Franz-Ferdinand), Russia came to their aid and shit hit the fan.
first off russia did lose all those people but if it wernt for u.s.a they would have lossed becuase thay had the russians and the americans to worry about
Such a beautiful piece. I think it's awesome how Lennertz and other composers like Jeremy Soule have created such fantastic music for video games. It shows that it too can be a well-rounded genre comprising both art and entertainment.

I don't say war is beautiful. I just say that, sometimes, maybe more often that we are willing to admit, it's just "shoot and kill or be shot and killed", and not "shoot or don't shoot".

@Briselance One can understand why they did not defend Czechoslovakia. The Germans at the time had such a large and intimidating military; any single nation that simply stood up and said "no" would been the next on their list. You would need a reason to rally all nations to come in and help, and boy did Adolf do that. The entire world also reasoned that the Germans would stop; they didnt know that Hitler would be insane enough to pursue leadership over the whole world.

@ramsanta2 ok yes they did but didnt do much about it until it was to late when the Germans had a smaller force. And yes we basically sat back because we thought it wasnt a threat which was a great goverment at work.... somewhat at the time.

Well shit, since the Americans stepped up in the nick of time - four years after the war started and the atrocities commenced - I guess the world still owes them a favour for it.
Fuck off, retard. You're confusing 'football' with war again. If the United States had a scrap of honour it wouldn't have sat out the Great War, it would have raised an eyebrow the minute Hitler was coming to power like everyone else did, and it wouldn't be wading around in the Middle East for nothing now.

Just because some people sue for peace instead of measuring their cocks against everyone else doesn't make them less honourable or cowardly. I sometimes think that life under Germany would not be so different from living with the US of A at the helm now, the whole world is in your shadow.
Now the UK follows it around like a gelded dog. I suppose we should be proud of that instead?

Measuring their cocks against everyone ?
What is that silly cliche about the militaries ?
Besides, suing for peace doesn't make a coward, I agree with that without hesitation.
But suing for peace while you perfectly knows war is just a few years or months away, that makes you a perfect dishonored coward.

I think you're being a bit too harsh there, but you still score a point.
"like everyone else did"
Well, actually, almost no one raised an eyebrow when Hitler came to power.
Besides, we should have raised way much more than an eyebrow.

Hardly. The main reason the war became a World war was that the European superpowers were divided into two main alliances, the Central powers (Germany/Austria-Hungary/Ottoman Empire/Bulgary) and the Triple Entente (UK/France/Russia). When Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia (due to the assassination of Franz-Ferdinand), Russia came to their aid and shit hit the fan.
