“We lost 116,000 men in WWI and we weren’t invited to the ceremonies????“

While I share your thoughts, just to put it in perspective, the French lost 1.3 million, the British 3/4 of a million and the Germans just north of 2 million.

Our deaths were but one battle for the major players. Heck I think on the first day of the first encounter between the French and Germans the French lost 27k killed.
