Sabaton The Red Baron Reaction

I'd like to recommend something different that people don't seem to be suggesting, and that's their song "Hearts of Iron". It's one of the few songs about the Germans from the last parts of WWII that shows them doing something heroic.

Fun fact, The Red Baron's Squadron was called "The Flying Circus" which was was where Monty Pythons Flying Circus, got the last part of their name, more precise The title Monty Python's Flying Circus was partly the result of the group's reputation at the BBC. Michael Mills, the BBC's Head of Comedy, wanted their name to include the word "circus" because the BBC referred to the six members wandering around the building as a circus, The group added "flying" to make it sound less like an actual circus and more like something from World War I. The group was coming up with their name at a time when the 1966 Royal Guardsmen song Snoopy vs. the Red Baron had been at a peak. Freiherr Manfred von Richthofen, the World War I German flying ace known as The Red Baron, commanded the Jagdgeschwader 1 squadron of planes known as "The Flying Circus." The words "Monty Python" were added because they claimed it sounded like a really bad theatrical agent, the sort of person who would have brought them together, with John Cleese suggesting "Python" as something slimy and slithery, and Eric Idle suggesting "Monty". They later explained that the name Monty means Lord Montgomery, the great general of the Second World War".

I'd say this song may actually be my all time favourite Sabaton song in regards to lyrics. It all seems to flow so well. Just listen to 3:34. 'Der Rote Kampfflieger' is actually the title of a book written by Richthofen that literally translates to "The Red Fighter Pilot". And Sabaton managed to fit that into this song so that it rhymed!

Von Richthofen was actually born in Kleinburg, modern Borek, district of Wrocław (Breslau). He was an officer within 1st Uhlan (lancer) Regiment and first year of the war served at the Eastern Front, where cavalry still played important role, but transferred in 1915 to the West, he soon got bored, as there was no real deal for cavalry to perform. I really enjoy Your reaction videos, maybe try Sabaton`s "Uprising" next time ;-) (Polish bias confirmed! :))

One thing to note, Manfred likely downed more than 80 aircraft in his career. Germany had a strict requirement that a "kill" wouldn't be confirmed unless you brought back a piece of the target aircraft that could be verified as proof. The Allied forces had a different policy requiring only a second pilot confirm that the kill took place.

Much appreciated that you know the actual true outcome of The Red Baron fate.... ( After a pilot was incorrectly credited with it) the soldier was a Sergeant Cedric Popkin manning a Vickers .303 who fired the fatal shot, A lieutenant of the observer corps was first to approach the down ace to hear his last words It was Sergeant Cedric Popkin actual second attempt at firing that caused the hit..... his first attempt missed yet his particular Vickers was situated on a mount that allowed full rotation so he turned 180 and waited, the shot enter below right armpit and exited his left of his chest (the bullet was also recovered inside his flight suit) Coincidentally both the German formation and British formation had pilots flying their first mission.... these pilots were told to not engage in battle.... but apparently crossed paths with each other, British pilot Lieutenant May gained the advantage over the German pilot.....which the Red Baron then spotted and so the chase began, with Captain Roy Brown following....

Another thing that was unknown about the baron he used allies engines in his fighter from crashed fighters of theirs, he settled on a American engine design at the end since it was producing the most horse power of all the engines and he had a hand in designing several German Fighters since he knew what the draw backs of all their fighters were by making two of them the best in the circus of his squadron fast agile and tight turning the perfect fighter to use in dog fights.

I just realized that if Charles M. Schultz was still alive and were to draw more of the Peanut comics, I can see him learning about the new theories and research developments of Red Baron's death. Imagine him making a comic where Snoopy thinks he finally shot down the Baron and he starts celebrating, until someone in the background points out that it was the gunner on the ground that got the Red Baron, that gunner was actually Woodstock. Then it cuts to Snoopy now saying "Curse you, Woodstock" instead of "Curse you, Red Baron"

My great grandfather Arthur Roy Brown was credited with shooting him down for a while. He was an Ace pilot too leading a squadron. He started chasing the Red Baron after his childhood Friend was targeted By Richtoven. The story goes in my family he had no idea it was him he shot down until he landed. There was a history channel special trying to disprove that A Roy Brown shot him down but i found it to be heavily biased. My Great Grandad‘s time as a WW1 pilot is a interesting story, apparently he never lost a single man under his command which was almost unheard of at the time. A lot the credit goes to how he would introduce new pilots to dog fighting by having them study it by by initially flying above the battles when the brokE out.

how badass is he? Best pilot in WW1 (probably in comparatively extremely short airtime) buried with full honors by his enemies. has a trope named after him. made an entire archetype in anime that badasses have red color schemes Have Sabaton make a song about you.

For a decent show, if not a bit aged, on just who killed the Red Baron, Unsolved History did an episode in their first season. And with the technology they had, it was filled around 2001, they come to a conclusion that I think is pretty definitive.
