Alexigail Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Wow, that is amazing. WWI was glossed over during my studies and I only came to appreciate it's importance as an adult. Thanks for sharing this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saw Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 If this interests you you may also be interested in the BBC's broadcast of a memorial service at Westminster Abbey to commemorate the outbreak of WWI. Not sure if you can get BBC2 in the US, but it will be broadcast at 10 p.m. London time on Monday 4 August. From what I know of the service, it should be worth watching if you can find it on TV.
