1914

 
It's now a hundred years since the First World War and this year will be full of expensive commemorations 'celebrating' and glorifying the event, at least here in Britain.
 
Here's a quote from a letter from that time, I'm not going to identify the nationality of the writer;
 
"My dear Mother!
We have gained a good bit; our cemetaries already stretch as far as the sea"
Neil Harris
(a don't stop till you drop production)
