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.

This subreddit is for discussion of the Youtube series The Great War. This goes for:

  • the weekly episodes released every Thursday
  • Special episodes
  • the Biography format WHO DID WHAT IN WW1
  • the community format OUT OF THE TRENCHES

If you're new to the series, begin watching the playlist here.

British Scouts leaving their Aerodrome on Patrol, over the Asiago Plateau, Italy, 1918, by Sydney William Carline. He was shot down and wounded over the Somme but went on to pilot a Sopwith Camel fighter in late 1917. By the end of the war he and his brother both worked as war artists for the RAF.

Was the use of chemical weapons during the Great War really as lethal as we believe?

Hello everyone!

My name is Demes, and I’m working on my final research project for my last year of high school about the use of chemical weapons during the Great War. To complete the practical part of my project, I’ve created a Google Forms survey, and I would really appreciate your help. Since this is not a topic that can be easily discussed with just anyone, your input would be especially valuable if you have knowledge or interest in this historical subject.

Here is the link to the form: https://forms.gle/vjVSPQpVJRW3BLht5 .

Thank you very much for your collaboration! Any contribution will be a great help for my research.

Although this might not fully align with the rules of this Reddit, I would greatly appreciate the favor. I completely understand if you can’t or don’t want to take the survey.

Best regards,
Demes Duran

Watching the show in the car is scary

Sometimes when I'm driving somewhere I put the video on my bluetooth speakers and listen while I'm driving. And the sound effects for the guns and artillery always scare the shit out of me.

I am going to follow him all over the Western Front.

It was a little disorienting to read the book without grounding it in real geography.
