To name a few: US-Filipino forces at Bataan WW2, British in Hong Kong WW2, 55 Days at Peking even though it wasn’t a last stand it was definitely a siege, Vorbeck in WW1 when he finally surrendered even though it also wasn’t a last stand his forces were the last Germans fighting the war.

"Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look upon them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death." -Sun Tzu, The Art of War (X - Terrain, 25)

The last stand of Capt. Ben Salomon. The regimental dental officer of the 2nd Battalion, 105th Infantry Regiment, 27th Infantry Division. He was in charge of the field hospital at the battle of Saipan as the regular surgeon had been injured. When the Japanese counter attacked and overran the position he ordered the wounded evacuated and stayed behind to hold back the enemy. After the four men manning the machine gun were killed he took it over single handed, after being shot at least once his blood trail shows that he repositioned it at least four times. He was found after the battle with quote "His body had 76 bullet wounds and many bayonet wounds, up to 24 of which may have been received while he was still alive." There were 98 enemy dead piled in front of his position. The battle of Saipan was his first active combat. He was initially passed over for the Medal of Honor due to a misunderstanding of the restrictions on medical personal, but near constant campaigning on his behalf later succeeded in an award in 2002. He remains to this day the only dentist to have earned the Medal of Honor.

There's a few other dudes who got the MoH in Saipan during that Yokzai. Forget his name but some Sgt or other had his stretcher bearers shot while carrying him. Not wanting others to get shot on his part, has asked to be sat up against a tree with a 1911 and a cigarette. They found him surrounded by 8 bodies and an empty gun that only had 8 bullets.

Another battle that would fit this episode perfectly is the battle of Zadwórze in 1920. A battalion of Polish volunteers from the nearby Lwów (now Ukrainian Lviv) stood there against the whole 1st Calvary Army of Semyon Budyonny, significantly contributing to preventing their city from being taken. Which was also important for the overall strategic situation and Polish victory in the whole war. Out of 330 soldiers, only twelve survived. The battle of Zadwórze very much rivals Wizna for the title of "Polish Thermopylae."

I knew that the Nightwish "we can make sh*t disappear too!" prank sounded familiar, and that's when I remembered that it was included in Nightwish's "We Were Here" book...page 211, in case anyone is curious. Great prank, haha! Edit: By the way, I'm gonna need pics of the Sabaton guys in drag hahaha

Fun fact! The original last name of Nikola's family was Šubić and that was the most prominent and the most important Croatian medieval noble family and they were originally from central Dalmatia. There estates were located in the triangle between modern cities of Zadar, Šibenik and Knin. They were a very rebelious family always trying to rule their estates without fulfilling their obligations to the king whose throne was in Budapest. One of the most prominent members in the 14th century was Pavao I Šubić who even managed to bring Carl I Anjou on the the throne of the Croatian-Hungarian Kingdom after the extinction of the Hungarian Arpad dynasty. Interestingly enough Carl's son Louis managed to break the power of the Šubić family even forcing them to relocate from central Dalmatia up north to the castle of Zrin thus the Šubić family becoming the Zrinski family or "Zrinyi" as the Hungarians love to call the family.

Actually, the Subic family distinguished themselves in the war against Venice in the mentioned 14th century, which is why they were gifted Zrin by king Louis I - as their original lands (the ones you mentioned) were at or near the coastline, so those were absolutely ravaged by the war as the Venetians were a very difficult enemy. (Of course, this also might have been a political game to gain their favor, difficult to ascertain from many hundred years past, but nevertheless Zrin was gifted to them.) The Hungarian version of his name is "Zrínyi" but it is not what "Hungarians love to call the family", it is what they called themselves when they were dealing with Hungarian affairs. At the time it was common practice to "translate" names when addressing them in foreign documents - and Zrinski wanted to be a prominent figure in Hungarian politics (besides of leading Croatian politics) in order to gain more support to quell the Ottoman attacks. Everybody did this, even kings "translated" their names. He even learned Hungarian to communicate with his subjects and troops (as he had quite a few Hungarian lands as well). He even arranged some marriages with Hungarian families to further gather support - as he knew he couldn't count on the Habsburg king with whom he was not on good terms. Nevertheless, in Hungary everybody knows he was Croatian, so no need for this kind of negative undertone, nobody is trying to "steal" your national hero. I believe it is a rather positive thing if somebody is so incredibly respected by others that they even think of said "outsider" as one of their own. This doesn't mean that these people are trying to erase who that person was. Also, for the people who stood their ground even in the face of certain death, nationality was not important (e.g. as far as I know there was no actual list how many of the soldiers at Szigetvár were Croatians or Hungarians - of course, it might be that it just didn't survive), they only cared about who is with them and who is against them. The unquestionable fact is that Zrinski had plenty of Croatian and plenty of Hungarian troops, just like he had both Croatian and Hungarian nobles who helped him (and also had nobles from both nationalities who didn't join him at Szigetvár - he was expecting at least double the army he had). They made the ultimate sacrifice regardless of nationality, therefore I think it is pretty much justified to celebrate them as heroes in both countries.

The miracle of Empel in 1585 where the spanish troops stood in a hill against the duch army and navy (because they flooded the land). They discovered a painting of Mary of the immaculate Conception and the next day the river froze allowing the spanish to attack the ships and defeating the dutch. Since that Mary of the immaculate conception is the patroness of the spanish infantry

My favorite battle was the Battle of Myeongnyang. Where Admiral Yi had 13 ships vs 330 Japanese vessels and won!! The Koreans did a movie on it. Yi had only 2 dead and 3 wounded on his flagship. Would love a song about it!!!

​@@SabatonHistoryI've always wanted to get some Sabaton song about the war of the Pacific(also known as saltpeter war) there's plenty of sabaton worthy events and people from both sides of the war like the Peruvian admiral Miguel Grau known here on chile as the gentleman of the seas or the chilean captain Arturo Pratt that fought to the bitter end with his battered wooden frigate against the Peruvian ironclad. There's also of the first modern times amphibious landings at pisagua the daring assault of the Morro de Arica the brave Peruvian defense of their capital and them the continued resistance of Avelino Cáceres known as the wizard of La sierra(the name given to the highlands of Central Peru that) that dared the Chileans to come get him and dragged the war at least 2 extra years and that brings us the battle mentioned by OP where important to note Ignacio Carrera Pinto the chilean commander was a lieutenant (was promoted earlier but never got the notification) ans he also was the gran kid of one of our founding fathers ans he was also the nephew of the chilean president that was in office at the start of the war and along side the 77 soldiers (some of wich were sick with dysentery and other ailments) were 3 women that were cantineras (kinda like combat nurses) 2 little kids and one baby that was born during the battle and all of them were eventually murdered after all the soldiers died and just 6 hours later reinforcements would arrive and see the carnage that had befallen their brothers in arms. And the final twist of fates Caceras was finally defeated and survived only because luck was on his personal side at the battle of humachuco 1 year to the date of the battle of La concepcion

Thanks so much for mentioning Camerone ! I feel like I've been harassing the band for years now to make a song about this one. Small piece of trivia, every year, on April 30th, Camerone day, each Legion unit has a celebration, and the wooden hand of capitaine Danjou is marched around in a military parade at the Foreign Legion's home of Aubagne. This is a bit of a foundational event for the unit, which back then was about 30 years old, and although already an elite troop, really came into its own after that. Honouring the precursor heroes who fell over in mexico became one of the great rallying cries for the legionnaires of the following generations. These days, with the Legion itself being one of the most recognizable units in the world, and of course in France, Camerone is one of the staples that always comes to mind when you ask a Frenchman about last stands.

Remember the Alamo! A very famous last stand that Sabaton should make a song about. Also love the Last Stand of the Swiss Guard.

So cool hearing these stories, both the last stands and pranks, great work Indy, Pär and Joakim!

And here I am taking the homework seriously. 😂 I couldn't find the origin of last show band pranks, but honestly, it's a bunch of young dudes on the road, with zero supervision, zero impulse control, and senses of humor like their 10 year old selves. In other words, I'd be more surprised if pranks didn't happen. Best pranks I found were The Man In Black releasing 500 baby chicks in a hotel in Omaha, NE, where I live now. And Black Sabbath staying in a creepy castle writing Sabbath Bloody Sabbath in 1973 and scaring each other so badly with ghost pranks they had to leave the castle. Yes. The Prince of Darkness was scared away from a haunted castle by fake ghost stuff. 👻🦇

I really liked that they put in the "The Last battle" (which is my favorite song) for the first last stand story.. Amazing History lesson

Since you told about the battle of Camerone I would like to type about another last stand. One of the greatest Last Stand in the History of the FFL was the battle of Bir-Hakeim (26th may - 11th june 1942). Rommel and its Afrika Korps were winning against the Allies in North Africa. The british needs time to reinforce their lines at El-Alamein and asked the first free french division to gave them time, the french should stand at least 4-5 days, they held 15-16 days. At 3.700 against 37.000 axis soldiers, the french stood strong and managed to push back the attacks launched by Rommel. After succesfully stopping the Axis advance in North Africa, the french troops leaved their position. Rommel lost 15 days trying to get rid of these little lines, he said "I never had a toughiest fight than against the french in North Africa". The FFL wasn't alone, there was the Bataillon du Pacifique (Tahiti, French New Caledonia) and the Fusiliers Marins (troops from Britanny). Free France showed to the Allies that it was a reliable fighting force that is capable of fighting the Axis.

I always love it when these History Videos come out. METAL!!🤘🤘Love from Korea!

Happy to see you guys talking about 1 of our croatian great soliders would be nice to get a song about šubić zrinjski and the siege of siget

I love whenever there is an additional info over a specific topic for which Sabaton have done songs! But speaking of pranks and jokes - is there any chance of you ever doing an episode of a song of another band (like you did with 1916 and other about Manowar etc) in which there is some participation from Sabaton? I am talking about Nanowar of Steel - Pasadena 1994 (featuring a D-Daily reporter from Sweden)

A one of my favorite last stands was during the battle of Chickamauga during the American Civil War in 1863 when General Thomas Henry and his men faced a massive confederate force, so the rest of the Union army could retreat. He became known as the Rock of Chickamauga.

Man I love this videos and Indy just tells the history so damn well! Great tour stories, too. ❤

Great episode, thanks.🙏

I've always found the French Foreign Legion's last stand in Mexico and the Battle of Pavlov's House to be fascinating (myths and inaccuracies aside)

My favourite last stand was the War in Tauranga During the first half of 1864 the focus of the New Zealand Wars shifted from Waikato to Tauranga. In this phase of the conflict the British suffered a catastrophic defeat at Pukehinahina - better known as the Gate Pā - before inflicting heavy losses on a Māori force at Te Ranga

It's a great day when there is more Sabaton History!

I'd humbly suggest that it's far past time for Sabaton to send in the gurkhas. Consider for a moment the VC citation for one Lachiman Gurung. "At Taungdaw, in Burma, on the west bank of the Irrawaddy, on the night of 12th / 13th May 1945, Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung was manning the most forward post of his platoon. At 0120 hours at least 200 enemy assaulted his Company position. The brunt of the attack was borne by Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung's section and by his own post in particular. This post dominated a jungle path leading up into his platoon locality. Before assaulting, the enemy hurled innumerable grenades at the position from close range. One grenade fell on the lip of Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung's trench: he at once grasped it and hurled it back at the enemy. Almost immediately another grenade fell directly inside the trench. Again this Rifleman snatched it up and threw it back. A third grenade then fell just in front of the trench. He attempted to throw it back, but it exploded in his hand, blowing off his fingers, shattering his right arm and severely wounding him in the face, body and right leg. His two comrades were also badly wounded and lay helpless in the bottom of the trench. The enemy, screaming and shouting, now formed up shoulder-to-shoulder and attempted to rush the position by sheer weight of numbers. Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung, regardless of his wounds, fired and loaded his rifle with his left hand, maintaining a continuous and steady rate of fire. Wave after wave of fanatical attacks were thrown in by the enemy and all were repulsed with heavy casualties. For four hours after being severely wounded Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung remained alone at his post, waiting with perfect calm for each attack, which he met with fire at point-blank range from his rifle, determined not to give one inch of ground. Of the 87 enemy dead counted in the immediate vicinity of the Company locality, 31 lay in front of this Rifleman's section, the key to the whole position. Had the enemy succeeded in over-running and occupying Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung's trench, the whole of the reverse slope position would have been completely dominated and turned. This Rifleman, by his magnificent example, so inspired his comrades to resist the enemy to the last, that, although surrounded and cut off for three days and two nights, they held and smashed every attack. His outstanding gallantry and extreme devotion to duty, in the face of almost overwhelming odds, were the main factors in the defeat of the enemy"

Hey Sabaton have you ever heard of "Wojtek" Poland's Soldier Bear of WWII. He was hands down the most unusual participant of WWII. Just imagine a 300 pound bear carrying cases of Artillery Shells to Polish Artillerymen. That kind of unusual. I hope this is noticed and turned into a song one day.

Majoor Landzaat, at the Grebbeberg 1940. He kept fighting in his commandpost after the lines were breached and he died after sending his soldiers away. After the war he was awarded the Militaire Willems Orde posthumous.

Camaron is an example of why I consider the Legion equal to the toughest and most determined of my country's troops, whom I hold in very high regard.

The last stand of Ottoman governor Abdurrahman Abdi Pasha the Albanian was so heroic that his enemies erected a memorial stone that says; "The last governor of the 145 year long occupation of Buda, Abdurrahman Abdi Pasha the Albanian fell at this place on September 2, 1686, when he was 70 years old.

As always teaching us very interesting facts about war History. Thank you. I would like to mention some more last stands and maybe offer some ideas about a future video, who knows? 1) The siege of the city of Messologi of 1825-1826 during the Greek war of independence 2) The battle of the Metaxas line in April 1941 (Greco-German conflict of the Second World War). Despite outnumbert and outgunned against the Wehrmacht (and while we had been at war against Italy for over five months) our forces stood their ground and fought bravely inflicting heavy casualties upon the enemy. Notably sergeant Dilitrios Itsios and two of his soldiers managed to kill nearly 200 Germans before running out of munition and forced to surrender. 3) The last stand of Gregory Auxentiou (Γρηγόρης Αυξεντίου) of March 1957. During the EOKA rebelion against British colonial rule (1955-1959), EOKA officer Gregory Auxentiou fought bravely alone against numerically superior British forces until he was eventually killed in battle but not before managing to inflict casualties among the enemy forces. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Hellas 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🙏🙏🙏☦️☦️☦️🇬🇷🇬🇷🙏🙏🎄🎄🇬🇷

With the siege of Szigetvár you left out, that (even though the Germans have given up on them) Hungary wasn't defeated and many soldiers still fought for their homeland. So Miklós (Nicholas) Zrínyi and Tamás (Thomas) Nádasdy with their 15.000 men who actually tried to save the city. This is the same Zrínyi, who defended Szigetvár exactly ten years later and after seeing, that they had no choice opened the gates and ran headfirs into the enemy. He and every single soldier under his command died that day. That could've been a cool song too.

I would have liked to have seen that Nightwish & Sabaton tour in Silver Spring. That was before I really got into either band though; that was the earliest I even discovered Sabaton, with Carolus Rex. I was at their show in 2019 when Silver Spring was again the last stop of the tour. Didn't notice any pranks on Hammerfall, but we did have Swedish Goats.

I loved the stories of the pranks.

My favorite last Battle is the Varus Battle. Ok, it's not a real last Battle because the romans wanted revenge for their 3 Legions. But Tiberius decided the border is the Rhine and so the German fought finally fought for their freedom

The defence of Snipe.

Do I smell another EP coming? (I stopped the video on 15:04)

Is this a hint that another last stand album is coming?

Great episode, as always. Unfortunately at 00:00-00:13 and 14:47-24:44 it sounds bad, like you have an echo or similar activated, or that your microphones are not active. Perhaps the sound bounces of the walls or maybe all three. Is the above something you can please look into ?

The first time I saw Sabaton was on the 2006 tour opening for Dragonforce in Vosselaar. That was also a last show of the tour if I remember correctly. Was quite funny to see the guys join Dragonforce on stage wearing barely anything.

Sabaton music led me into the history. So I started to do some research from my side . I am a South African and I did find that some South African s did took part in the Delville battle where a South African received the Victoria cross for bravery.

Best band ever. Sabaton really needs to do a song about Pavlov's house.

i always wonder if Sabaton can make a song about the 332th fighter squadron, better know as the red tails....the black pilots that fight against the luftwaffe....or about Erich Hartmann, the most deadly pilot of WW2.

I have to mention two Examples of last stands one the charge of the First Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment as well as the defense of Wake inland

Hey Sabaton, would you make song about Czechoslovakian legionaries in Russia after WW1 please?

The Battle of Bataan can certainly be considered a last stand. A minor battle compared to Midway or Stalingrad, but it had the benefit of messing up the Japanese invasion timetable. And it also rendered an entire Area Army combat-ineffective, at least for a time.

Fuck, I seem to be out-growing Sabaton's music and antics... SIGH

I really the liked Stalingrad (1949) scene. The cinematography was masterfully done and the action depicted was cruel and cold, probably just as it was back in 42-43. Edit: I'm still waiting for Sabaton to release a song about Purple Heart Lane. A game called Brothers in Arms even had the After Action Report (AAR) of the actions taken that day, as well as accounts from other screaming eagles during Cole's Charge.
