The Angels of Mons (WWI Legend)

He stands stands tall with the head of a star, and I know this to be true

Imagine spending all that time learning how to treat yourself from a bullet wound only to be killed by an arrow.

When you're a Level 95 player fighting a Level 100 player and your Level 25 friend tries to help you.

i tought it was angel of moms

WWI: The war with zombies, ghosts, a king in the sky, tanks, and a lord of the ring

sabaton fans finish it go

Bruh where were they in Ww2? 😭

Edit: I think they were like: „naahh too lazy“

LOTR vibes

I don’t remember this episode of South Park

Someone took a hallucination pill

British soldiers: “wh-“

Angels: ”Mad Jack sent us”

British soldiers: “Understandable have a nice day”

I think wonder woman 2017 no man's land scene was inspired by this

Wow the British found an easter egg

Fear in war ilusion or mass hysteria

Don´t let facts stand in the way of a good story

So these dudes arrived to help the brits, but the Old Guard of the French Empire didn't bother helping the french in WW2?

That's a pretty cool legend. Way better than most.

You all should find the true story of st.micheal the archangel directly intervening in the Vietnam war, the soldier who was rescued by him in heavy gunfire wrote the account in a letter to his mother, the letter is read to every graduating class of marines each year, it's amazing

Expectation: Angel come and help the soldiers

Reality

Angel: We are here, to help yo-
Hit by German shell

British soldier: Well that was lucky...

Sure and right after Autobots came and killed the rest of the germans

frickin time travellers...

The Enemy is Being Reinforced by Spectral Beings

More like Demons because Angels would never kill people

God damn hackers

When you play your first mission in a RTS game

This story pales, literally, with what happened hundreds of miles apart on the eastern, Italian, and western fronts on November, 14, 1915 when scores of witnesses saw intensely bright apparitions in the skies, momentarily mistaking them for flares.

<><

No one messes with the British, and lives to tell an entertaining story.
From an American 🍻

All they had to do was try to find an arrow.

I swear sabaton will make a song about this legend

I read "Angels of Joe Mama"

The Angels: ok, the norse are done. Who's next?

Scots and French: sweat profusely.

Civ iv at its finest

False

Now I remember this

I guess the wild hunt don't like people making war anymore lol

Imma be honest I thought it said angel of moms

This story gives me chills.

There is a good account of this in The Other Side of Death by Leadbeater.

Arthur Machen ....why an I surprised

To many from all sides of the war all swear they saw angels.. i believe them why lie about something like that...i cannot imagine anyone going through that event horrific as it was , would lie

Humans are easily manipulated

Love history-stories, good (and genuine) nnarration - detest cartoons and artificial speech.

The Angels of Mons is one of many stories of the reputed appearance of a variety of supernatural entities which protected the British Army from defeat by the invading forces of the German Empire at the beginning of World War I during the Battle of Mons in Belgium on 23 August 1914.

This Halloween we are exploring the spooky parts of History. The Angels of Mons is a famous legend from the First World War but where did this story come from?
