A little known fact about the Warsaw uprising is, that at the time the Hungarian army's 1st cavalry was assinged as a reserve to the german 9th army with a force of around 25 000 under the command of gen. Béla Lengyel (lengyel in hungarian means polish). From the start of the uprising the hungarian forces refused to aid the germans to stop the uprising. The hungarian soldiers refused to fire on polish posts and they gave first aid to the wounded, free passage to supplies and provided information to the Polish Underground Army. They warned the polish that there will be a german counter offensive in the Sluzew - Wilanów area, as a result of this the polish reinforced their positions causing heavy losses to the germans. At the last days of the uprising with the annihilation of Kampinos group the hungarian army provided weapons, medicine and hungarian uniforms to the remainder of a polish batallion to escape to the direction ofJaktorow and Zyrardow. When the withdraval of axis forces began 500 wounded polish were evacuated with the hungarians in hungarian uniforms.

When I was a teenager I worked extra during summer in a nursing home and there was an elder woman there from Poland (this was in Sweden). She had some amazing stories to tell about her life and the life in Warzaw (during and just after the war). I could listen to her for hours. One thing that struck me, that I had not learned in history classes, was about the betrayal of the polish people. And she often mentioned she would never be able to forgive Churchill. Poles - you have my utmost respect and hope I get to visit your country somtime.

Even though neither of those countries fulfiled the pact in 1939, polish forces fought at their side all over the Europe. Including war of Great Britain, where polish squadron was the best of all. Churchill didn't even invite polish soldiers to victory parade. But the most important is, that he agreed to decisions made in Jałta. Result of Jałta was 50 years of communism in Poland, Russian occupation and terror of Stalinism.

Hunted and persecuted by communists, torutred and finally executed in 1948 for cooperation with nazis. Oh the irony and tragedy...

My Grandfather (92 this year) Told me alot of sad stories from that time , his father was taken in the middle of the night by SS never to be seen again , then they took him his mother and 2 brothers to concentration camp where his mother didn't even survive 1 month ( she was splitting the little food they gave them between her sons ) , sleeping conditions were terrible always cold and the bedbugs were everywhere... this is just a portion. Oh and about 8-9 years back Grandfather got to know what happend to his father ( the way he died , not his body unfortunately ) , while trying to find out where lies his father because he was trying to find him for a long time he met a guy who claimed he knew what happend because he was part of it , SS took a large group of people to a horse track or smth ( i dont know the exact name in english ) and told them to run , and the last few who are still running will survive. So the guy who told the story was one of those few , and as sad as it is the father of my grandfather didn't make it... There is much fun and epic songs and stories about the time of war , but when you hear things like that it puts all those ,,amazing'' things to a perspective. Best wishes from Poland

If anyone scrolls down enough then have some knowledge: 1. The "P" sign, with the bottom that looks like a fishing hook that was shown a couple times in the clips, is a combination of P and W and means "Polska walcząca" so in English "fighting Poland", during the whole war scouts and children too young to actually fight would paint it on walls and building to remind people to never give up hope 2. One more thing they would paint was "pPp" or a turtle for "pracuj Polaku powoli", which roughly translates to "Poles, work slowly", since a lot of Poles were forced to work in factories supplying Nazis people making the signs urged them to make the items as slowly as possible to inconvenience the oppressors

My grandfather was 14 during the invasion, he was Jewish and his father sacrificed himself to save the family, buying them critical time to escape when the Nazis showed up at their door. He never told me much about his time besides that, it wasn't until after he died that we discovered he had kept journals of what his life was like living in the polish wilderness. Near the end of his life he and I listened to this song and it was the only time I ever saw him cry. He wasn't physically in Warsaw for the uprising but his spirit was.

If you want a very good source of more detailed informations about the uprising of Warsaw I think the best thing is the book by Norman Davies "Rising '44". Norman Davies is a British historian that in this book has really deeply analized the history of the Warsaw uprising since the prodromes 'till the sad end of the story. Furthermore another thing I remember my grannies always used to tell me about this story is that the Russians not only stayed at the outskists of Warsaw waiting that the uprising would have been struck down but they killed everybody that was trying to escape throught the Vistula river to reach the eastern shore (where the Soviet army was) to escape the nazis. And that hurts. We had no allies for our fight for freedom and those who were closest to the city, strategically, have betrayed us. And the few supplies thate the allies (U.S and U.K.) have parachuted on the city for the rebelliants were so poorely protected in an adequate way that they could not be used for the fight once they reached the ground from the planes. Really a sad part of our history, but nevertheless a great proof of what does it mean fighting for your freedom, even in despair and whithout the help of anybody. Warszawo walcz!!! I'm not a nationalist, but just proud of my city and thankful to be born in a free place thanks to those heroes that gave their lives so that i could enjoy my beloved city free again. Cześć i chwała Bohaterom!

I'm afraid you are partially wrong about "Allies turned away". It's definitely beginning of the world war but it's also about Teheran conference (and later in Yalta) where allies agreed that Poland will become the area of stalin's influence. Churchil and Roosevel allowed Stalin to do absolutely terrible things in Poland and promised not to interfere with that. We lost freedom for next 50 years... after the war - Stalin enforced the law that made polish army heroes who fought agains germans in Poland and everywhere else (including battle of Britain) the renegades who were chased and killed (that includes my grandfather) I wish Sabaton would some day write a song about one of the killed heroes - Witold Pilecki. This guy went voluntarly to Auschwitz concentration camp and escaped from there to write the report on what is happening in Poland. Allies decided to bury this report and he was sentenced to death after the war by Stalin's lackeys.

Probably one of the most well know stories of the polish fighting spirit is the Polish destoryer ORP Piorun. During the final encounter with the KMS Bismarck the Piorun closed into close enough range that every gun on the ship was firing at the Bismarck. The entire time it was using a spot light to singal in Morse Code "I am a Pole" to the Bismarck. Also can't forget the quote from First Sea Lord, Sir Dudley Pound when he was awarding a polish submarine crew "Last night I asked my Chief of Staff to give me a list of all Polish warships fighting alongside the Royal Navy. I was shocked to learn how few they are because in all despatches of naval operations and major engagements I almost always find a name of a Polish ship that distinguished itself."

Poland were fucked from every direction, but as Joakim said, "They never lost their faith". I really loved my time in Poland (Australian).

The polish were some hardcore fighters, never giving up despite the overwhelming force disparity arrayed against them at every turn, and being left high and dry by their allies multiple times. Gotta respect that no matter who you are. It's a shame that Poland's contribution to WWII is remembered (at least as far as American school/texts books are concerned) as "was invaded by the Germans, and lost very quickly, is the start of WWII", that is, if they are even mentioned at all.

my grandfather on my mothers side was a polish soldier during the war, he was smuggled to the uk with my other grandfather on my fathers side, and this other grandfather was a defecting storm trooper, they became close friends during there trip and when they both settled down and started a family, they lived next door to each other, to this day both those houses belong to me and my sisters, and we still find it funny that the houses are named "Oder" and "Neisse" after the main border between germany and poland

I hope you can do the sabaton history episode of this song, it's one of my favourite episodes As for how it's remembered in Poland, it bacame somewhat of a symbol of Polish resistance during WWII, 1st of August in now a national remembrance day, people go out into the streets and city centre and every year at 5pm on 1st of August the whole Warsaw and with it the whole country stops to remember what happened that day. We are not tought about WWII untill quite a late stage in our education (clearly a faulty education system) so what people know about it they tend to find out on their own and people tend to know a good amount, even those who did not go into higher education. We are tought about the Warsaw uprising though fairly early and those schools who are able to often wisit Auschwitz in the final year of high school (so at around 16yo)

I know you'll probably watch the history version of this song, but the actor they got to do the German general (I forgot his name, Stormare something) actually walked through the streets of Warsaw Poland in this get up (while the rest of the cast took trucks to the different scene). But I would highly reccomend the Woodstock version of this song. It sounds far more powerful and just hits difference seeing / hearing it live.

Polish insurgents waited impatiently for the day and hour of the uprising. Not paying attention to whether any of the allies will help. They even prepared themselves in small things, such as sewing the Polish emblem to a hat or sewing an armband with national colors. I am reminded of the story of our poet Krzysztof Kamil Baczyński, who at that time was 23 years old. He ran so fast to the uprising, because the appointed hour was approaching, that he almost lost his shoes on the stairs. He died in the uprising. One of the popular poems he wrote in March 1944 is "Elegy about a Polish boy": They separated you, my son, from dreams that tremble like a butterfly, they embroidered sad eyes with red blood, my son, they painted landscapes in yellow stitches of fires, they embroidered the flowing sea with hanging trees. They taught you, my son, your land by heart, when you cut her paths with iron tears. They raised you in darkness, they fed you with a loaf of fear, you have blindly traversed the most shameful of human ways. And you left, bright son, with a black gun into the night, and you felt it bristle in the sound of minutes - evil. Before you fell, you crossed the ground with your hand. Was it a bullet, sonny, was it a broken heart?

Uprising (Powstanie) of ´44, so inspiring, heroic and yet so inhumanly tragic chapter in the history of my Beloved City (where I was born...) After the oktober 2nd, germans went house to house burning and blowing buildings up, destroying I think 91% of the city. not a quater, 91%. Brits and americans did not come to help, there were no airdrops done by them, only airdrops were done by polish bomber squad which reluctantly got permission to do so by the allied HQ. Stalin gave permission for those planes to land on soviet airfields only in late september, when the fate of the Uprising was sealed. There were few drops done by russians, from about 1000 meters, the carnisters with supplies deliberately missing parachutes, which resulted in all supplies being destroyed upon hitting the ground. There is so much more, so much more, and so little space. Also, I live in Sweden for 30+ years so my deepest respect and gratitude to Sabaton for this song as well as to Peter Stormare for participating in the video.

There is a polish album that is about the warsaw uprising, and there are songs about our "allies". About England is fragment "Słuchaj Londyn, nam nie trzeba audycji, my żądamy amunicji" ("listen London, we don't need radio transmission, we need amunition"), or about the Soviets "Na prawym brzegu rzeki cupnęliście, skurwysyny nie przyszliście" ("the other side of river you sat down, motherfuckers you didn't come"). The album is called "Powstanie Warszawskie" and it's made by Lao Che

The Polish Paratroop brigade was raised and trained to be dropped into Poland when the AK (Home Army) rose. When the Poles rose the RAF refused to fly because of the distance and the lack of any expectation of survival. Polish pilots volunteered to fly the mission but the RAF still refused to allow it. Instead, the Polish Paratroops were dropped into Arnam in Market Garden. On the first of August every year the City of Warsaw comes to a complete halt and observes a minute of silence in memory of the rising. There are KZfaq videos of it.

As a Pole I can say that people in Poland are still unnecessarily and disrespectfully discussing whether the decision about Uprising was good or bad choice. If someone is interested how Warsaw looked like after the Uprising there is acctualy a reconstruction of the destroyed city from the airplane view. The short film is called "Miasto Ruin" ["City of Ruins"] but I don't think you can watch full version of it anywhere in the Internet. For even more fascinating stories and informations you can visit Musem of Warsaw Uprising in Warsaw it's worth it to come here. But if someone have questions about polish history or less famous stories of Uprising or you are just interested about something I can tell you some things or just can help to find some good sources to take from. Love from Poland and stay safe!
