Germany’s famous unit of immortal soldiers pose with their heads in their hands, 1921. The Immortals, ordinary men resurrected from death by a process as yet unknown, served with honour in the First World War until they were liquidated (by being burned to death, the only way they could be killed) by the Weimar Republic in 1924.

What the fuck what the fuck
SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME

The description basically says it all. 

The man on the far left is Oberleutnant Hans von Pommen, the commander of the unit. In the last month of the Battle of Verdun he was stabbed 18 times, shot twice by French snipers and stepped on a land mine. The land mine was the hardest thing for him to recover from, but he eventually grew back his missing legs.

Third from the right is Feldwebel Ulrich Mannstein, who single-handedly (ie both by himself, and with only one arm) stopped a charge of Mk V Females on the Somme.

I’m sure there are some other famous ones there. The description doesn’t mention that the French eventually had dedicated flame units to deal with the Immortals. The unit was originally 150 strong.

some pertinent quotations regarding the Immortals:

“Coming back is like waking up from a deep sleep, a sleep that fills you like quicksand. When you wake up it’s like breaking the surface of a scummy pond. I’ve never felt as energized or strong as after I’ve come back.”– Oberleutenant Hans von Pommern, Belgium 1914

“I feel good. I feel fine. After a few times you don’t even notice the pain anymore.” – Gefreiter Georg Steinbrenner, after having his spine broken in three places and one arm severed by a shell impact. France 1916.

“We don’t need weapons anymore! We don’t need tools of any sort, we are invincible, we’re fucking gods on Earth!”– Unteroffizier Wilhelm Eichelberger, France 1915

“How did I do it? Focus, that’s all. Focus is really all you need.”– Feldwebel Ulrich Mannstein, on how he knocked out four Mark V Females with nothing but a sharpened shovel and grenades

“I can’t do this anymore, please don’t wake me up I’m not going back I’M NOT!”– unidentified Immortal, German aid station, 1917. The words were recorded in the war diaries of Hauptmann Friedrich Ritter von Sternberg, the attending surgeon, who later wrote that “such plaintive screams, coming from a man whose entire face was a wet and bloody pulp, cut me to my very core”

“Their demeanour was strange, almost cheery, as we started up the flamethrowers. Quite unsettling were their guttural cries as they burned, strange animal shouts of pleasure and joy. We had all heard the stories of how they became unhinged towards the end. I hope the government has the good sense not to re-start a project like this.”– unidentified Provisional Reichswehr officer who witnessed the burning, 1925

“The jerries walked right through our lines. Can’t have been more than a platoon. I saw only one of them fall, an FT had blasted him with its cannon and took the top half of his body off. If I hadn’t known better I’d say he kept crawling. It was then that I noticed the French were bringing up some guys who had the weirdest apparatus attached to their backs. Looked almost like they were wearing some sort of deep sea suit. Heavily armoured with two tanks on the back, carrying a pipe which had a cable streaming out from the tanks. I don’t know what was more terrible, the Germans who didn’t die, or the weapons the French used… I’m still haunted to this day.” – Corporal Alan Michael, American Expeditionary Force recounting an incident in 1918

I call bullshit. Theres no way that this is real.

look up “They Wouldn’t Die: Memoirs of An Investigation into Germany’s Most Secret Military Unit” published 1931 by CPT Jacob Klemenz, USMC. Klemenz came face-to-face with members of the Immortals during the Great War, and afterwards embarked on a decade-plus research project to find out why and how they existed. his account is for sure on Project Gutenberg, it’s a little dry but makes for fascinating reading

Wait… so zombie Nazis are real?

not zombies technically, and not nazis either (Reichswehr) but yes

To the Führer’s infamous Geisterbeschwörergruppe, the distinction between ‘zombie’ and ‘ghoul’ was academic; battlefield dominance was all that mattered.

I’m fairly certain that by 45 they were using haphazard mixtures of both; zombie combat units being led by ghoul officers. zombies were cheaper and easier to create, but impossible to control. Ryan mentions the horrific wounds sustained by the Fifteenth Army during the retreat from Belgium, wounds which he claimed had resulted from the zombie auxiliary units attacking their own

In the 1840s, Germans founded the Colonia Tovar in Venezuela, and it was in the waters of the Caribbean that they first encountered the dangerous Bull Shark (Carcharhinus leucas). Decades later, injury-resistant chondrocyte cells derived from shark cartilage were incorporated into a serum that some historians theorize was part of the “unknown process” that created the Unsterblichen. If these stories are to be believed, and if there’s any credence to the theories of “DNA memory”, it’s possible that the zombies’ unpredictable “cannibalistic” actions on the battlefield were what shark biologists would describe as a ‘feeding frenzy’.

This was it, this was the point of taking a knee

Remember this before they change it. Because they are already doing it.

You know what’s even more crazy about this is that initially he was sitting on the bench the first few times and no one noticed until a teammate, Eric Reid, asked if they could join in on the protest. Kaepernick received a letter by Nate Boyer, who is a Green Beret and previously played with the Seahawks. In it he explained that in the military, soldiers take a knee to show respect for the graves of fallen brothers. Kaepernick invited him to a game and Boyer accepted. Though Boyer didn’t take a knee, he stood next to Kaepernick in solidarity. Kaepernick changed his protest to best show how he felt about it and he still is getting backlash about “not respecting the flag.”
