    De foto is zeer waarschijnlijk genomen bij Aalsmeer, met de Ringvaart van de Haarlemmermeerpolder. Vlakbij het Fort bij Aalsmeer.

    We can assume that this man is a north African colonial troop of the French Army. It is a pity that more information is not presented with many of these photographs.

    Blimey! They're so young! I can't help but wonder how many (or rather few) of these young men returned to Britain alive.
  • Jaime said:
    Oh, that is the saddest picture I think I've ever seen. How many of those young men died?

    A vivid reminder that England sent it's upper crust to fight this war. How different things are now (especially in the US where the armed forces are comprised primarily of poorly educated kids from poor families).
  • Jason White/Big Lion Head said:
    Are these not the infamous 'The Eton Rifles' and is it not more likely that these were the ones who sent the 'oiks' over the top?

    Four metre Prussian Grenadier executed for sleeping while on guard duty.

    Now that does appear to be a staged scene. The fellow nearest the camera is on his own programme, seeming to have found a pheasant to shoot at.

    I think he had to have been taller than just 4 meters ! Besides think of the manpower necessary to dig a grave that big ?
