[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 967174, member: 5066"]Recently watched a 2005 documentary titled " The Somme" directed by Carl Hindmarch, absolutely brutal battle. " Never have so many soldiers been killed in one day's fighting: 25,000 dead, most in the first hour." Really nasty first day there but they kept on fighting till November. The body count on both sides was, One million casualties, dead, wounded or missing from July - Nov. 1916.[/QUOTE]
