jhoak Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Loved the pictures. Thanks for the link. World War 1 was an abomination at every level. So SO many men were killed or maimed. In the millions. One would think that loss of life at that level would cause world leaders to rethink armed conflict. Sadly it didn't. World War 2 killed almost twice as many. As a species on this blue rock there is much that we need to learn. One of the things that we've learned all to well is how to exterminate each other in vast numbers. This is a lesson that I think we'd be better off forgeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallette Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Great pics, thanks. I wonder if they were colorized? “Although color photography was around prior to 1903, the Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, patented the process in 1903 and developed the first color film in 1907, the site notes, explaining the colored photos."
