Slartibartfast Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-15671943 Found this interesting feature on the BBC... its about villages where all who went out to war returned... some from both wars. Quote

kaa Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 Not that it makes a difference, of course, but aren't the soldiers throwing their helmets in the air on the first picture doughboys ? Quote
Shiloh Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 That's amazing and lucky for these towns. I live in a small village of perhaps 2,500 people and men have been lost in every major engagement going back to the American Civil War in the 1860's. The village was around during the Revolutionary war (1770's) but I can't say for sure whether any were lost. Quote
