THE GREAT WAR covers the events exactly 100 years ago. From 2014-2018 the YouTube channel covered the events of World War 1 week by week. At the moment, we are covering the events in the aftermath of WW1 – which wasn't the war to end all wars as people had hoped.

- the Biography format WHO DID WHAT IN WW1
- the community format OUT OF THE TRENCHES

Help with photo. The Ohio newspaper Democratic Banner on Jul 9 1915 prints this photo of what it calls a "German camp scene in Poland." NZ Northern Herald Jul 2 1915 says it is Kirghiz instructors teaching Russians how to use Yurts. Does anyone have any insight into the photo?

In which episode does Indy read "Dulcet et decorum est"?
As the title asks, in which episode of the week by week did Indy read the poem "Dulcet et decorum est" by Wilfred Owen. Also if anyone associated with the channels sees this, could you guys clip that recitation into its own video or short? Indy does a good reading imo.

Gustave Goes memoir on hartmannswillerkopf
Hello, I started reading this memoir because I had it or a while and I did visited the battle site a while ago so I thought it'd be interesting to read testimony. The memoire is from the german side and the soldier does mention how bad it could be with the death and the mutilated, it's also interesting to see how the author would describe the german action and the fighting.
