It's a beautifully written story about an obscene, appalling deeply disturbing event in human history.<BR/>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Quiet_on_the_Western_Front<BR/><BR/>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Quiet_on_the_Western_Front_(1930_film)<BR/><BR/>Other info:<BR/>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/special_report/1998/10/98/world_war_i/198172.stm<BR/><BR/>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/special_report/1998/10/98/world_war_i/198172.stmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-18687646737109277482009-03-11T14:15:00.000-05:002009-03-11T14:15:00.000-05:00FYI and 2 years later, here's why you're an idiot....FYI and 2 years later, here's why you're an idiot.<BR/><BR/>"while aviators fought 15 and 30 minute fights in the sky only to land miles from the frontline and enjoy steaks and whiskey, retiring to soft matresses and French whores in "liberated" mansions."<BR/><BR/>The average lifespan of a combat pilot with the Royal Flying Corps was about 20 days.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you about Iraq, but people who make stupid asinine remarks without bothering to know what the hell they're talking about are part of the problem, not part of the solution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-320551077714969182007-11-12T22:07:00.000-06:002007-11-12T22:07:00.000-06:00Great bit of journalism here (really).

I don't remember learning a lot about it in school.<BR/><BR/>There's a song called Paschendale about a battle in WWI. It intrigued me so much that I had to go learn about it.<BR/><BR/>The whole thing was pretty amazing.Satyavati devi dasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13980257934310271457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-92042289964167520142007-11-12T08:41:00.000-06:002007-11-12T08:41:00.000-06:00Went the day it opened.
