Murder Academy (Somme 1916)

Why this video doesn’t get more visits amazes me. It’s the best I’ve ever seen on any warfare subject.

Music: ‘Murder Academy’, from ‘Psycho Drama’ by ‘Ultraviolence’.

A quite amazing video, best I’ve seen on the Somme. The constant lines of marching men gives one just a very slight idea of the scale of the slaughter.

All those smiling faces, it’s sobering to look at them and wonder how many of them would be dead not long after.

Great video. RIP brave lads on all sides.

Whats the name of the Music please?

why did you add “fucking” in front of German? don’t you like them? you can’t blame them all for the war you know. or don’t you like the language? yeah maybe that’s it. wow you’re a friend of mine? 4 real? I never had a friend called steve. well once there was this guy called stef but he was gay so..
anyway, greetings from the crappiest country in the universe that will soon be split in 2 because of our great politicians. hope to hear from you soon. bye-bye friend.

Good job they did do some left right fingers otherwise you’d be speaking fucking German by now my Belgian “friend”

yea man it kicks ass!

you must have seen the real stuff

Left Right! thats right dudes!!!

Why is everyone so down on war? It has ots fun parts.

great video

Every war should be a lesson to all of us and that includes the leaders but it will never change, tribal warfare is the major occupation of the human race and always will be, the nature of the beast i’m afraid, slightly evolved apes. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but just maybe these guys paid the price that will click the Human races mind into shape sometime in the very distant future.Hopefully sooner but i don’t hold out much hope. Sad but true. Peace for fucks sake!!!

C vrai que tu as un prénom purement français!!!

vive le canada..Mon pays!

fuck me..those guns are HUGE…

cool music, and thanks for the vid, Dontwalkwalk.

That homosexual coward General Hague should have been dragged down to lead the men into battle.

marching to what glory?

por lads, thay payed the ultemat price. R.I.P

King and country, if you didn’t some bitch in town would send you white feathers basically calling you a chicken. I hope they felt pleased with thierselves sending another poor soul to end up with his bones sticking out of the mud.

Put those chests out? keep it in ,smaller target!. Lions led by Donkeys.

Vive la France, mon grand pays!

Nobody knew. Everyone thought that it was still like Napoleonic Warfare, which ended quickly and you died heroicly and fast with neat little bullet wounds or swordslashes. Both sides also faked videos of the front to nake it look more heroic (such as quite some Somme footage, the one with the soldiers charging over a mudhill is proven to be fake)

Can’t understand why anyone would volunteer for such horror.
