Gettysburg, The Kyber pass, Verdun, Bastone, Dein Ben Phu, Khe Sanh, Fallujah, it's a sad sad comment on the human race when we count the eras by battles fought and lives lost.


Sad indeed.

Sad indeed.

It is indeed!
It is said that by the time of passchendaele so many lives had been lost that neither side was prepared to give in.
It would have meant that all those lives would have been lost for nothing.
