Even during the most brutal war for a soldier in human history, Tommy and Jerry can agree on one thing: the French suck. If you like history there is a website run by Dan Carlin, google his name. He does history podcasts and he is doing a series on WW I. He like to use primary source material and the stories what these soldiers had to go through in the trenches is horrifying. His stuff is worth worth the buck a podcast he asks for.

What if the British didn’t intervene and let the Germans defeat France.

In hindsight, I think there’s a very good case that the world would have been much better off as a result.

The soldier in the middle was later promoted, and is seen below in his dress uniform.
