F’ing horrible situation. And thank God we didn’t face this horror.
One of, if not my most, prized possessions is my great grandfather’s ring hand carved from a spent shell that had a simple engraving of “Ypres” upon the brass which he made in the trenches. He was in the Canadian forces (from Scotland)that got the first blast of German gas during the Ypres salient. Pictures to follow if requested.
I am also a bagpiper and play the tunes of the troops from “the great war” and can barely compose myself.
It doesn’t matter what side you were on in “the great war.” It was all f’in horrible.
PLEASE!!!
I’d love to see the pictures.
Thanks in advance.
