Got a gran-grandfather who died there:
After the long battle of Verdun(feb 21th to dec 18th 1916) French soldiers are taking a rest in a destroyed village. Around 300 000 lifes was lost. 163 000 on the French side.


The Germans capitulated with the Allies: Annonced to this soldiers at 11 am. 11th November 1918.

This war been a real butchery for every nations who was in it: Let's hope nobody forget that.
