Anyone who has had the privelege of walking the cratered ground in the Verdun or Meuse-Argonne areas...seen the photos in the museums and looked at the bones of 300,000 unknowns under the Ossuary can get the first inkling of the scope.
But as we all know, any reflection or historical review will never approach the memories of those who walked the ground in real time.
Thank you Mr Buckles.
