  • The Canucks got the raw end of the deal for the Dieppe Raid. They were sacrificed IMO nothing. Where was their support? Where were the boats meant to recover them? All they showed was it was stupidity to assault a well defended port. As for the film used in the movie, it was close to what my grandfather said the nightdrop was like on that long day. His began at 1:36am, plane number 36, I company, 502nd PIR, 101st Airborne division.

  • @discord13 and 3. no one landed at Omaha

  • Comment removed

  • Best iron maiden song ever and best band ever iron maiden rock!

  • Fucking awesome!

  • fuck the video I'm here for MAIDEN

  • @impowner666 if you join, the music of IRON MAIDEN, with the video you will see that they are relatted in some parts, its a music that speaks of war.

  • Great movie great song by Iron maiden!!

  • name of the movie??great video thanks....

  • @ntekempe it ain't a movie numptey. its Band of Brothers

  • @suffiest I thought it worked better with Band of Brothers, but I fricking love BoB anyway.

  • Good song, but I think Saving Private Ryan always went better with this song than Band of Brothers

  • @Suffiest and @ The3rdBellic98 - Either way they died before they got off the landing craft or before they jumped - All heroes and song does justice to all who took part on that day.

  • @Suffiest Hmm...I always felt the saving private Ryan, while certainly horrific in the unbelievable difficulties portrayed to the soldiers, it felt more of a narrative than Band of Brothers. Band of Brother, I feel, fits this song in the sense that it is really dedicated to the struggles of the soldiers. But I certainly agree with you in the sense that Saving Private Ryan actually had the beach assault!

  • @Suffiest I think the same, beacause the song is about Ranger's troops.

  • And if they have had me-262´s in operational use before, normandia invasion wold be just one bloody mistake

  • ...in to the city and take control of the whole country (as Warsaw is the capital of Poland) and after that he was killing our people and destroying our industrial system not for months, not for years but for f'kin decades! I'm not saying that hitler was better. I'm just saying that stalin was just as bad as hitler :P I really like Russian people cause they are like our brothers, but i f'kin hate Russian government. They were, are and probably will by layers :P

  • @marcinlozowski layers, do you mean liars? Sorry I just didn't get that part. What you must understand is that no government is perfect, and nearly all of them are just in power to make money from us. I take history as a GCSE and currently we are doing medical history and surgeory (I'd prefer to be doing about the wars) and, if I'm correct, what happened to Warsaw was German spies infiltrated and caused chaos, then with communication/ammo supply out, they would surround the city.

  • @angryboy2k9 it should be "liers" sorry, my mistake ;) I agree in 100% about what you've said about governments. And about situation in Warsaw unfortunately i can tell you only what i know from my parents and history channels and programs that i've recently seen ;) As far as I know, all that you've said about Germans it is true. Germans surrounded Warsaw and at the same time Russian forces were just across the river. They waited as Germans take over the city. (as I said: as far as I know ;) )

  • @marcinlozowski Yeah you got some good knowledge of this then. I didn't know about the Russians waiting but I did know that the Germans stopped ammo/ration supplies and stopped communications, each section would effectively be cut off from each other. Obviously, it turns into every man for himself at that point, there is no overall plan, just every battalion, fire-team (Whatever you happen to be in at the time) fighting for survival. I believe this was called Blitzkrieg althought I may be wrong.

  • @angryboy2k9 Thanks! I think that I should know this as a inhabitant of Poland ;) I'm pretty sure that in Russia they are learning that their army didn't make it on time to save Warsaw, but I'm also sure that they are mislead in many other historical facts that some of them was proven by United Nations and organizations like that. For example execution of Polish officers in '40 -Katyn massacre. But this is topic for another really big conversation ;) You also know much! Where are you from? :)

  • @marcinlozowski I'm from England but I study GCSE history and I have a real big interest in war and its history :) It may be possible that Germany sent in spies/assassins FROM Russia who worked for Hitler, a betrayer or Russia? It is possible to get people from an allied/own country to turn on you, since they would know the language and look as though they were from that country.

  • GO CANADA!!!! Big fan from Poland! ;) And about soviets and uncle stalin? As I'am from Poland I know even too good about how generous and helpful this motherf'ker was :P he was no better than hitler. He came and destroyed my country. Made us 50 or more years behind the western countries. He betrayed us like a scum! He let nazis to kill all of the defenders of Warsaw while his tanks were waiting just across the river and he made it on purpose! He made it because he wanted to just walk... tbc...

  • nicko's awesome on a m o l a d so is bruce both pilots

  • do not forget about poland

  • I dont want to offtop but at 0:08

    This piano reminded me a map form Call of Duty 2  (where was a piano on the street). ! Gosh ! I need sauce on footage!

  • a single song makes me think more than thousands of documentaries

  • i like that they managed to make such a good song reflecting all the truths of WWII (not just D-day) without using any curse words--something not found in the soldiers of the time.

  • Comment removed

  • why is there a history lesson going on in the comments of this remarkable song?

  • @newianpaice Because you don't own the internets!

  • @CyanideSovereign PAH! my mum told me i can do anything

  • @newianpaice Why are you talking about your mum in the comments section ov this remarkable song?

  • what i hate about war is that young men and women are sent to the frontlines to apparntly defend there country by taking a bullet for the leader who sent them there the leader doesnt know them but the sloider knows the leader the leader always sits in a nice comfy chair while the soliders sit in there own feces and whatever shit waiting to kill or be killed

  • 0:00 rewind button

  • humankind is fucked up

    

  • Good video,but Maiden are British,2nd Airbourne division would have been more appropriate

  • This is an awesome video, but the song is supposed to show more of the naval assult, not the airborn.

  • @hansthekraut No it's not. It's about the invasion of normandy on D-day. Whether that be the navy, marines, airbourne, airforce, nurse, medic, it dosent matterr it's just about the normandy invasion in general.

  • whats with american soldiers and shooting german prisoners?

  • @n4120p you racist prick! We NEVER "discussed Hitler ideas" in America. We dont TOLERATE hitler views in America. We tolerate many things here, but hitlerisms are not one of them

  • @AZ094243 Totally Agrre with you!!!.... no Hitlerisms in America....

  • @AZ094243 HITLERISM? LOL. FAIL. AND WE DO ITS CALLED HISTORY BRO. THE GERMANS DIDNT TOLERATE IT BECAUSE THEY HAD A HORRIBLE GOVERNMENT. YOU LEARN THAT IN HISTORY WHICH U EITHER FAILED OR LIVE IN TEXAS.

  • @crox342 I resent that the first thing u think when u hear a racist comment is "American". But sadly, we are an insensitive lot. However, we fought long and hard and lost more men than most countries in WWII so please, show us some respect, even though we probably dont deserve it.

  • @AZ094243 WE DONT DESERVE IT ALL. WE BROKE AWAY FROM THE TYRANTS OF ENGLAND (THE PARLIMENT). NOT TO MENTION FRANCE AND ENGLAND HAVE DUKED IT OUT SINCE THE 1200'S.

  • @alphamale442 not to spit hairs here but we have been fighting the french since before then you forget 1066 a french duke invaided us and even before that normans raiders, and before the romans the French Guals we have been fighting france since before christ mt friend

  • @LordofMyOwnMind im talking about when england was unified, 'your people' have.

  • Takes time to change the way you think,, give 15 years of 50 % unemployment and poverty in America , and then only then we will discuss Hitler ideas once again..

  • @n4120p Ever heard of a collapse bro? Not going to have 15 years on unemployment the U.S. Dollar will collapse if there was 15 yrs of unemployment. Get educated while you still can.

  • fucken awesome

  • i agree with ryansiki

  • good video whit images from band of brothers! :D 

  • n4120p you fcking racist.you are probably american and perhaps you admire hitler but do you know you fcking 12 year old what "Master Race" did around in europe the consoquences are still felt today in many countries

    

  • The last great struggle of the white man, faithful to their jew masters Great Brittain and helpers crucified the White Race.

  • @n4120p Hate to tell you, but Hitler lost the war - so that sort of philosophy is done for. It never worked and never will.

  • @n4120p O yea. Hitler said he's having a fun time in Hell.

  • @Kamakize789 thats only if you believe in hell. which he didn't so your point is kind of flawed.

  • haha des watts des watts !!!!

  • i brought the game medal of honour 2 on psp... now i know what its about i kind of wanna take it back :(

  • This isn't English Soldiers! In the "american beachs" was easy

  • @astebeck Actually, the paratroopers attacking the area behind the beacheads were American, English and Canadian soldiers.

  • love the vid seen em live 6 times nd fk there good

  • Some people can make awesome videos! Thanks man!

  • Fantastic creation! Love this band and this song!

    Up The Irons!!!

    \m/~~~

    if we want to hear that part of the song again we will just press "Play"

  • Valhalla waits, valkyries rise and fall

    The warrior tombs lie open for us all

    A ghostly hand reaches through the veil

    Blood and sand, WE WILL PREVAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Up the IRONS from your Mums knickers !!!!!! mmmmmmm.... ;]

  • UP THE IRONS from a mountain ridge, believe it or not.

    

  • to turn men from flesh and blood to steel

  • i love the part at 0:22. it suits the music so well

  • British-American-Canadian-Comm­onwealth WARRIORS and HEROES! We gave the Third Reich HELL and FIRE and GLORIOUS FURY!!!!!!

  • @Welshbluesman and the russia?

  • @Welshbluesman There is nothing glorious or heroic about war. Nothing at all. If you think so, you don't deserve to call yourself an Iron Maiden fan...

  • @mit7771 Where's the glory or heroism of being made a slave? Sometimes war is all you're left with, and you'd better be good at it or you'll watch yer babies be slaughtered and yer woman made a whore!

  • @mullah06 How does not fighting in war make you a slave? Ever hear of a guy names Gandhi? Look him up, bud, then talk to me about war... And the very fact that you said "Yer" implies you are an uneducated (Probably conservative and southern American) person whose opinions are probably grossly distorted by propaganda.

  • @mit7771 Oh please excuse me for using a contraction to ease my arthritic typing! I bow low to your awesome intellect! And I do know about Ghandi; fortunately for him, he faced a civilized foe: the British. Unfortunately for his decendants, they face the Mohammedans (as do the rest of us). You might want to do some research on them. It's convert or die soon, because once they have their caliphate back, dhimmitude will no longer be an option. I assume you know what dhimmitude is...

  • @Welshbluesman you forgot greek in that a gree

  • @Welshbluesman F**** NAZI

  • @Welshbluesman Now we old f'ers have gatta get ready to give it to the MUZZARDS!!! HOOAHHH

  • @Welshbluesman : You did nothing. 

  • @Welshbluesman I don't think Canadian military actually counts as a military. US forces and British forces did something, sure, but the Soviets actually won the war. They took the most territory, they took over Berlin, they were the baddest of asses.

  • @SilvahDot That's a pretty ignorant fucking comment dude. Don't forget Dieppe, you spit on all the fallen Canadian soldiers' graves by saying that. People assumed Canada had no military in WW1 either, then they took Vimy Ridge to everyone's surprise. Sure, the Canadian military has never been this huge powerhouse like other nations, but don't say they don't count. Sacrifices have been made on all levels for us to enjoy the freedom we have today. 

  • @ironmaiden99999 okay. still, your argument is generally invalid, russia still won by taking over the most territory.

  • @SilvahDot By "generally invalid" you mean??

  • @sk8terman494 i mean it's generally not right

  • @SilvahDot Naw, it is generally right

  • @SilvahDot I give a lot of credit to Russia's contribution, that is of the Russian people, but I will not give any to a mass murderer in Stalin.

  • @ironmaiden99999

    I agree with the sacrifice part, but don't really agree on the 'freedom' part. are we free today ?

    world nations, most of them

    world war one was about world economy, world war two.. maybe we will know what it was about in the next 100 years.. but I seriously doubt this is what freedom looks like. we are free to be slaves of the system, free to choose to accept the system and perpetuate suffering of others or free to die, that's the freedom of choice we have.

  • @irDreaming Considering the horrible state of the world, I totally see where you're coming from. But naturally absolute freedom would not work with imperfect creatures such as humans. Some kind of system has to be in place or there would be no civilization of any kind. Indeed, no system is perfect, but at least we can discuss it without the fear of our doors being busted down in the middle of the night.

  • @Welshbluesman 2 minutes to midnight quote"The napalm screams of human flames"

    sort of related

  • @Welshbluesman You forgot the Soviets, without them, the Third Reich would win the war. Never mind the ideology, the enemy of my enemy is my friend

  • In the gloom the gattering strom abates

    In the ships gimlet eyes await

    The call to arms to hammer all the gates

    To blow them wide throw evil to its fate

  • @djramos14 I KNOW!!!

  • ARROGANZ!!!

  • hail iron maiden :)

  • thumbs up if it gave you chills

  • I loves my maiden... But doesnt UP THE IRONS mean machester's football team slogan?

  • @cptspears04 nope it does not

  • @cptspears04

    No not Manchester, its West Ham United =P

  • @blackzoucko i did do i know you?

  • I really love this video and the music.Really good work.

  • The best song about D-Day is SABATON's song called PRIMO VICTORIA!

  • Up the Irons from Arkansas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • q pedasos (muy exelentes y copados ) q tiene iron maiden q dicen toda la verda de la guerra aguante iron maideeeeeeeeeeeeen

  • Why hasn't anyone actually used footage from the D-day movie called "The longest Day"?

  • UP THE IRONS FROM HELL

  • Steve s lyrics +bruce s narration =goosebumps.This song s excellently written.

    "How long?, on this longest day,till we finally make it through".......pretty much sums up the fate of the men who died that day.

    Screw history classes,u might learn more listening to Maiden and may actually learn to enjoy and respect it,like I started to.

    Awesome vid,good effort.

  • @acidangelster Bruce wrote the lyrics for this song, check out 'the making of a matter of life and death' :)

  • ....this segment of band of brothers is about the 101st airbourne who was sent in on the 5th to protect cause ways of the french swamps, not to take part in the actual d day invasion, which the song is about. good video just wanted to clarify lol

  • @skymaster36 i liked band of brothers but everyone here must get the pacific more action and shows you more of what sloders go through

  • @metalrulesforrever

    Pacific is pointless it spends half the time of them on leave and less on action so I personally believe band of brothers is so much better

  • @ShadowAkaRandomHero whoa theres more action in the pacific 2 battles on guadal canal 1 on cape gloucster a bunch on peliu iwo jima and okinawa

    band of brothers first day of d day carentan market garden bastogne thats it

  • Comment removed

  • go joe.

  • Best song from A Matter of Life and Death, notice when he says "Day" on the chorus sounds like the echo of that word is going through everything, gives me goosebumps ( mby it sounded a bit

    nerdy but whats what i think / feel :G )

  • This isn't a movie (in the traditional sense), It's Band of Brothers, a TV miniseries that originally appeared on HBO.

  • easily stalingrad, but the song is based on the movie which was about D-Day

  • Which battle was more bloodier and momentum changer?

    Stalingrad 1943 or D-Day 1944

  • ya but they were already giving Britian weapons of every kind and lending money the didnt need to pay back

  • They were also selling equipment to germans americans really played for both sides. Their only purpose was to make money...

  • @826zaheer1993 neither, okinawa

  • that movie is called band of brothers . btw it isnt a movei its a serie with like 6 parts all af an hour.

  • This song made me watch Saving Private Ryan again, really, thi is an awesome song.

  • So this Movie is called "The Longest Day"?

    If yes- I am hella going to see it ASAP :D

  • Hi mate,

    The footage in this video is from a TV series "Band Of Brothers." It's on DVD etc, so should be easy to get hold of.

  • theres a film called the longest day,

    truely bad ass film,

    Up the irons from England!!!

  • i saw that movie. really makes a mockery of the truth. makes D Day look like a boy scouts walk.

  • @ bender0502 well yeah, but i enjoyed it....

  • Also it is based on the accountants of real people? Proably not exact but hey, I wouldn't want to fly into Anti-Aircraft fire :S

  • it is probably my favorite movie

  • To catch a bullet for those who send them here. AWESOME LINE! SO TRUE!

  • 0:23 this part of the video so suits the song. big up band of brothers

  • UP THE IRONS FROM MY LIVING ROOM!!!!

  • @dannyrulez149 UP THE IRONS FROM MY BEDROOM!!!!!

  • War is swollen with filth

  • theres a few videos for the longest day on youtube, but i personally think this one is the best.

  • thank you

  • @ryansiki you're absolutely right :)

  • AWESOME!!

  • Super!!!!

  • Most paratroopers ended up way off course or got captured by German patrols.

  • band of brothers

  • LOL 4:49 that soldier fucks up his grenade!! :)), good song btw

  • up the irons all over the world..........

  • every iron maiden song has so much meaning and tells a story and thats 1 of the reasons y i love them so much

  • um u know how d-day had 2 parts like the beach and the paratroopers------------------­-----------to be honest id rather be a paratrooper cus more people died on the beach before they got halfway up to the barb wire

  • @tigershot843

    I dont think you like it to sit in a wooden plane that gets shot from everywhere and then you have to jump out of it, while getting shot at by every fucking German soldier on the ground. Good luck not shitting your pants while trying to lay mines for incoming Kraut patrol. Lives a bitch when it comes to war.

  • @PerfectRock007 dude yes id would actully rather be un a wood plane

  • :0 very nice videoclip!
