Okay so a few days ago I had to watch this ww1 video for my history class that had color corrected photos of soldiers that were alive and were killed with actual footage of ww1 and in the background there were ww1 survivors explaining what they saw and thought during the war and uhhh… let’s just say the last story hit me the hardest… to the point I become a poet who was at the brink of tears.

2 мая 1892 года в Бреслау (тогда относился к Королевству Пруссии) родился Манфред Альбрехт фон Рихтгофен — легендарный (и один из самых известных) германский лётчик-истребитель, ставший лучшим лётчиком-асом Первой мировой войны с 82 сбитыми самолётами противника. Известен по прозвищу «Красный Барон» ( Der Rote Baron), которое получил за свой выкрашенный в ярко-красный цвет самолет-истребитель -Fokker.Dr.I

В начале войны Рихтгофен служил офицером кавалерии, но в мае 1915 года перешёл добровольно в авиацию, где стал пилотом-наблюдателем. Первый самолёт он сбил 17 сентября 1916 года в районе Камбре.

За свою карьеру «Красный барон» одержал более 80 боевых побед. Погиб Рихтгофен 21 апреля 1918 года от случайной пули, попавшей ему в грудь , которая пробила все жизненно важные органы. Знаменитому лётчику было всего 25 лет.

Воевал с выступившими против Советской власти уральскими казаками и чешскими легионерами.

Because one thing has become clear to me: you can cope with all the horror as long as you simply duck thinking about it – but it will kill you if you try to come to terms with it.

I'm still sitting here and you are still lying there, and there are so many things we should say to each other, but we shall never be able to.

The last death of WWI I can find information on was in 2014, although there could be a more recent one. 2 Belgian construction workers were killed by a shell around march of that year.

The problem with WWI in particular is that they sat for four years on roughly the same lines, the shells were often duds (1 in 4 to 1 in 3), and 1.5 billion were fired on the western front alone. In addition to that you have the possibility of gas shells which are still very dangerous if the gas gets released. There are some areas of France and Belgium where 99% of plants will die.

And then there are all the other conflicts and the later you go the worse it tends to get, with mines and cluster munitions.

So, uh, yeah. War is bad but you probably didn't need me to tell you that. Some estimates say it will take 300-700 years to clear out the WWI battlefields.
