TODAY

[Freenow54]

So Today is the day chosen for us to remember the Brave who chose to Protect our way of life that is always under attack by possibly Sacrificing , or Sacrificing their lives for Us and Future Generations. This is not Political It is a hard True Fact. For those who don't know it was chosen to signify the end of Hostilities at the end of the First World War. The 11th Month , The 11th Day, The 11th Hour. So please all that has been asked that you no matter where you are , or what you are doing is to stop , and reflect for 1 Minute what it meant to walk into Hell with your head up, and eyes open. Obviously their were

many Countries Involved . The Images are American, Canadian, and the UK

WW1 is sadly being forgotten as time passes. I hear fewer and fewer people talk about it, and we are reaching a point where the younger generation barely even knows what WW1 is. What is sad is that we are forgetting about the lives of those who fought for their countries over 100 years ago. Thank you for posting this, and to everyone who has served in any war, thank you for your service.

There were no rules on how to kill someone then. Chlorine gas was the thing , burning lungs out The Military now uses full metal jacket with the intent of the bullet passing through the body rather than blow parts off. How Civilized

I don't think many young people today even know what WW2 was, forget about Vietnam and Korea.

True. In Vietnam, the Communists used a bayonette that was long and thin. (I actually have one here hanging above my computer) It was not made to kill. It was made to wound and get you infected, as it has flutes on the sides that inject "poop" into you that they coated it in before the battle. This way, it takes another soldier to carry you out, so they take out two fighters for the price of one, and you stay out because of the infection.

Our US bayonets are approved by the Geneva Convention to kill you by having you bleed out fast.
I felt so much better after knowing that.

Yup in WW2 the ss used serated as well. If a prisoner had one on them they were executed on the spot
