Description
Der Kaiser hat beschlossen, zu ziehn in fremdes Land
Viel Krieger werden erschossen, getroffen von Feindes Hand
Das ist der Kriege Lauf, Regenten steigen auf –
Vieltausend von uns müssen ihr Leben geben drauf
Vieltausend von uns müssen ihr Leben geben drauf

I haven't a clue what all that means Shaun. I will have to get Jerry to translate for me! A very poignant image.
The Emperor decided to draw in foreign country Much warriors are shot, hit by enemy hand This is the wars Ascend running, Regent -. Much of thousands of us must give their life on it Much of thousands of us must give their life on it
... to end all wars. Such haughtiness and bombast. Better to never start a war! Well made image - from civilian to soldier. And how long will the fancy uniform be free of mud, blood, shit and piss (ever try going to the potty UP instead of down? Doesn't work - you get it back all over you). And your best friend's guts splatted in your face as he's torn apart by shrapnel. Who is it that touts the "glories" (gories) of war? Good job with the juxaposition. Keep up the good work! :-)
The picture is of Grandad John - who survived the war.
Yes if only it was true.... Nice photos of your grandad Shaun he would be glad he survived, guess you are too :-)
Its good to be reminded of the futility of war my friend !!!
Excellent !!!!!
Very beautiful tribute Shaun
A wonderful dedication, outstanding work!
Cool work!!
Well done!
Great reminder. And in August 2014 the war (economical only, I hope) starts again..
