    you'd rather fight in ww2 over this hell, because in ww2 they didn't full on fucking charge machine guns in entrenched positions with nothing but a prayer, modern tech met old-school warfare in ww1, which led to this being the war you had the least chance of surviving, ww2 killed a shitload more, but it had more soldiers, more fronts, and lasted 2 years longer, thew only exception could be the german soviet front, which was by far the highest death toll in the war

    Some extra information. This is still to this day considered the deadliest day in the history of the British armed forces. What is more is that during ww1 when units were formed young men from the same and neighbouring towns were placed in the same unit to improve coordination. Unfortunately that meant that when a unit suffered heavy casualties the youth of an entire town could be wiped. On that day many villages and small towns in Britain lost all or most of their young men. An entire generation wiped out in just a few hours. Motorhead has made a song about this battle which sabaton has recently remade called 1916. Personally I prefer the remake more, however I recommend listening to both. We should never forget these men and their sacrifices, regardless of their side during the war.

I plan on redoing this journey and include more personal stories from the people who lived in places like Terrace. Next time I'll have a device that allows me to text via satellite and send an SOS to local emergency services should something go seriously wrong.

    Just for your information about the time that they started building the transcontinental railroad, was when the shift began from iron rails (early locomotives were called iron horses) to steel rails. Also during this time, the railroad engines became heavier and therefore, they needed larger rails. Currently, most mainline railroads use a 130 pounds per yard rails . Though some sidings are as lite as a hundred pounds or less. Back then the rails were as light as sixty pounds per yard. Steel rails of course lasted far longer than the iron rails. I am mentioning this because you showed several cattle grates made with rails. Some rail road workers could look at those grates and tell you about when the rails were made and whether they were iron or steel. When they took up the old iron rails, they had to take them back and melt them. down and turn them into steel.
