    Ww1 photos

    Hope this is the right forum. Here's a link to some recently discovered photos of troops in France. Mods please move if need be.

    Thanks for these. Very interesting snapshot in time. Here's the accompanying article that's a good read as well

    nice pictures, maybe it is my PC or lack of some sort of software, but the page to me has to reload everytime to change to a new picture, kind of annoying, I wish you could just forward to the next pic without reloading the whole page.

    Wow. Some look clean but I see hardly a ray of hope in any eyes. Thanks for the link.

    The kilt photos from this story (along with the links to this story) were posted in the Show Us Your Vintage Kilt photo thread back in May. You can see the kilt photos here on pg 52 of the thread.

    (I mention this so duplicate photos don't get posted to the Vintage Kilts thread )

    Fantastic!

    I just downloaded the hi-res images from the links at the bottom of the page.

    They are big files mind, despite being zipped. Makes for easier and more detailed viewing though. I'd love to get hi-res copies of the first 400 if anyone stumbles across a link.

    Thanks for letting us know about this LondonPiper...

    Lest we forget.

    How old do you figure this 'Gent' to have been?



    They sure did make 'em young back then, the brave.
