The First World War

For me, the tragedy of the first world war just transfixes and fascinates me. It was one of the first historical events that i ever knew about. And it was because both my grandfathers were there. I believe in my heart that we've never recovered from the firstWorld War. The generations alive now are like the damaged children of born to damaged parents. We don't have anyone who is really there and can offer a real testimony. So with the passing of the last living witness, e foughten albert,  it made sense to end on this note.
