I love this style of presentation, with each talking about one side. It gives the lecture an interesting dynamic. Both did wonderfully and I wish more presentations were like this.

Stunning reminder from Shawn about the deaths the French and German had to endure. That QnA was brutal but needed.

Camille does an amazing job giving the intro speech and is so charming. I was fortunate enough to hear her in person when I attended the screening of “Frantz” in that same auditorium back in April. <br><br>Although I’ll be out of town on September 14th, I may go ahead & buy a ticket to Night at The Tower and somehow try to make it back in time. Lastly, the content of tonight’s lecture was interesting.

Very Interesting perspective, I also really liked how the two presenters presented the two opposing sides perspective. <br>I typically read the British or Canadian perspective, where we tend to forge, to the German and French perspective the BEF was very small, portion of the overall picture. <br>The question I would have asked, the two presenters. <br>Why the difference in perspective between Bullow and Kluck, Was Bullow more realistic and better informed about the situation.<br>Kluck had already reported he had destroyed the BEF, yet his own Army had taken severe losses from thier encounters, more so than Bullow and his Army. <br>Both had very little information coming in from thier cavalry or air reconnaissance. <br><br>So was the Lt Cornel correctly assessing the situation and calling the operation off,

I knew this will be good when there is a beavis and butthead reference at the beginning.
