100 years ago this August
 

August will mark the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the first World War. It was supposed to be the war to end all wars but didn't. Anyway, here are some interesting black and white photos from that turbulent era.

Exactly. I do like your signature line. Terrible times to say the least.
