Kyle+McCrossen

1- Weapons and Equiptment. This is the Torpedo also known as the “Flying Pig”. It was used for Aerial attacks on defending soldiers. My reaction was surprised because I didn’t think they’d be this big. They must have been able to kill a lot of people at once, which stunned me.

2- Animals at War. These are Italian Red Cross dogs. They found wounded soldiers who were injured or dead from the war battle. I was surprised to see that they used animals like this in the war. I didn’t know that dogs could even help the rescue unit out.

3- Heads of State. These are daughters that were nurses in the war. They helped all of the wounded soldiers.I didn’t know that nuns could be nurses. I was surprised to see that they could handle that being so religious and dedicated to God.

4- War at Sea. This is a torpedo used in ships. It was being loaded onto the USS Oklahoma. I was again surprised about the size of a torpedo. I never thought it would really be this big especially on a ship.

5- Commanders. This is a picture of General Culcer and staff inspecting Romanian troops. They were getting ready to go into war. My reaction was that I thought it was cool to see how the inspected the soldiers. It was also cool to see them all lined up and prepared for battle.

6- Troops. This is a picture of French chasseurs. They were leading horses up snow-covered mountain in the Vosges. My reaction to this picture was that I didn’t know that they used and relied on horses this much in war back then. The conditions must’ve been rough in the snow.

7- Death and Destruction. This is a damaged mill in France. The damage was from war. My reaction was that it must have been a shame to have your business get shot down. It could have ruined the owner’s life.

8- War in the Skies. This is a British observation balloon. It was used to spy on the enemy at war. My reaction was surprised because I didn’t even know they had these things all the way back then. It must have been very useful because there weren’t a lot of them made.

9- Individuals. This is a picture of French Lt. Gen. Riquichot decorating Sgt. P.H. Knowles, USMC with Croix de Guerre and Star. He's decorating there uniforms with pins of significance. I found this picture interesting because i never new the Generals decorated their soldiers uniforms. I thought it was nice how they gave it to them formally rather than just handed it to them because it wouldnt mean as much.



10- Refugees. This is an old women and her cow. They were displaced due to the war. I found this picture interesting because it caught my eye how people were left homeless like this with nothing but their animals. Also, this women seems somewhat happy dispite the fact that she's homeless.



11- Auxiliaries.This is a Jewish Welfare bus. It was a bus for touring and sightseeing. I thought this one interest because the bus is only for Jew's and not to everyone in the public. Also, i didn't know that they had buses for touring all the way back in that era.



12- Units. This is a picture of a man named Jamal and other men. They use camel's as their bodygaurds. I found this interesting because they used camel's as protection. I also was interested by how they are assembled in the picture.



13- Locations. This is a picture of British trenches in the ruins of Samarra. They were dug underground. This picture caught my eye by the way it was taken. It lays out all the paths of the trenches and really shows you what they look like.



14- Miscellaneous. This is the Statue of Strasbourg. This picture interested me because of the many details it has. I thought it was unique how it almost looks like someone could walk into it.



15- Homefront. This is a picture of the recruiting for the Holy War. I thought this picture was interesting because it is almost an oxymoron by calling a war the "holy" war. The people also look very religious.

16- Transportation, Suppy, and Communications. This is a picture of a Belgian ammunition plant. I thought this picture was interesting because you really get to see how much ammunition they used. Also you see how powerful and how big everything in the guns really is.
