“Living in the trenches was hard work to. Corpses, mud that can swallow you whole, pools of poisonous water, rats, disease, the smell. It’s insane how millions of soldiers put on with these conditions, and commanders ordered them to do so for years.”

I’m surprised that poison gas only accounted for 90,000 deaths in a war that had millions. I always thought there were more.

[@vttir6181]

the chemicals that were used are not that lethal despite hollywood movies. sulfur mustard is primarily just blistering, burning, and mutagenic(mutation). i’m pretty sure it takes around a few grams for it to actually be lethal

[@jamiefagerstrom]

just Imagine producing a weapon, only for it to be so deadly, that it's regarded as being too deadly for use in battle.

[@oliverwells8011]

Some of those poison gasses were "accidentally" invented.. they were trying to make stronger pesticides for crops and when the guy who created one of the gasses saw how deadly it was notified the army of its potential and we all know the rest of the story

[@JonayPS]

Imagine banning poison gas but not nuclear weapons...

War was more simpler and straightforward in ancient days. Plus it was more worthy to fight back then compared to now.

In ww1 people literally died because Franz Ferdinand was shot by a serb, i think it was not really worthy to die because of that honestly.

during ww2 the 75mm field gun was used as a french anti-tank gun during the invasion of France, but after France fell to the germans, the Vichy French did use this field gun during ww2 including in Vichy french African colonies during ww2, but the french still used this gun as a saluting gun to this today.

The USA only bought a few Maxium guns its offical machine gun was a Browning design and the French used the Hotchkiss machine gun instead of the Maxium gun

Here mother. Here in the darkness. Pick me up. Rockabye baby. Now I lay me down to sleep. Oh mother hurry because I can't wake up. Over here mother. When the wind blows the cradle will rock. Hold me up high high. Mother you've gone away and forgotten me. Here I am. I can't wake up mother. Wake me up. I can't move. Hold me. I'm scared. Oh mother mother sing to me and rub me and bathe me and comb my hair and wash out my ears and play with my toes and clap my hands together and blow my nose and kiss my eyes and mouth like I've seen you do with Elizabeth like you must have done with me. Then I'll wake up and I'll be with you and I'll never leave or be afraid or dream again. Oh no. I can't. I can't stand it. Scream. Move. Shake something. Make a noise any noise. I can't stand it. Oh no no no. Please I can't. Please no. Somebody come. Help me. I can't lie here forever like this until maybe years from now I die. I can't. Nobody can. It isn't possible. I can't breathe but I'm breathing. I'm so scared I can't think but I'm thinking. Oh please please no. No no. It isn't me. Help me. It can't be me. Not me. No no no. Oh please oh oh please.
