I drove into the Verdun battlefield area one late and dark afternoon in December. The place was deserted. I actually walked into a trench and stood there in the silence. I’m not a spiritual guy, but the sadness was too much for me to bear. I won’t try to put it into words, but I’ll never ever forget that moment. So much sadness.

"We are guessing you are a fan of detailed military history documentaries." Yeah hard to deny 1 hour and 10 minutes into this gem!

A Serb shot an Austrian so an Indian had to fight a Turk in Iraq

You guys never really got a chance to dig into this subject a lot back in 2014 besides the prelude to war series so I am glad that you guys are getting a chance to really give it the attention it deserves.<br><br>Any other 2014/1914 vets out there?

I still like Captain Blackadder's assertion that "it was just too much trouble not to have a war."

The weirdest part of WW1 is that it was essentially a massive family feud that just happened to engulf the world, since all of the warring nations were cousins of each other and the descendants of British King George II.

The great war is the most interesting modern conflict in my mind!

The anecdote of Parisians looting a suspected German shop that ended up being Swiss at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOsjdlWRqIA&t=1690">28:10</a> mark gave me a slight chuck. Man, humans have not changed one bit in the last 110 years ago, have they?

I have to comment on your narration - the perfect speed, cadence, consistency and pronunciation. I hear every word that is being said, with enough time to take it in, and never need to rewind because something has been sped through. This is an amazing skill and I had to comment to commend it!<br><br>Thank you and the team for another great vid
