  • Why is it that people think they are arm-chair historians, and proceed to 'educate' others on things they've probably read up on Wikipedia?

    Can't people just watch the video and remember those who gave their lives for us, and not feel the need to pretend to be military historians, and virtually end up arguing about who is best, the UK or the US?

  • 20,000 British men in a single day... really does make you thing, never forget these men.

    "France and Germany had exceptionally large populations than compared to britain or any of the dominion countries"

    Are you sure?????

    German population in 1914: 65 millions

    French population: 39 millions

    British population: 45 millions (British Empire: 450 millions)

  • awesome!!!

    

  • @nonameleft4m3 with which unit?

  • @rocketman8912 That's what happened. What's important is why this happened. Who sold who out. Who are the players behind the scenes that manipulate both sides for huge profits.

  • a battle that shows how the so called upperclass brit generals used men as cannon fodder,,and from my point of view so many irishmen died for the greed of the brit empire when at home the brits held ireland by force of arms and caused ireland nthn but trouble,,the brit called men to fight ww1 for small nations freedom,,yet where was eire freedom?and so many other nations under the brit empire yoke,,DOUBLE STANDERDS,,also why is it they germans are clased as the bad ones and the brits the heros?
