The First World War (1914-18) was the first global conflict, the first mechanised conflict, and the first to involve civilians far from the fighting front. #History #Warfare #EasternFront #FirstWorldWar #GreatWar #ItalianFront #WesternFront #WorldWarI #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/9-316-en/

When German generals decided on a strategy of attrition to methodically wear down the French Army in the middle of the First World War (1914-18), the Battle of Verdun was the result, an engagement that spiralled out of control and cost both sides much more than they ever imagined. #History #BattleOfVerdun #FirstWorldWar #FrenchArmy #GermanArmy #Verdun #WesternFront #WorldWarI #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2878-en/

The First World War (1914-18) stimulated a great wave of literary output, not least in the field of poetry. #History #FirstWorldWar #Poem #Poetry #RobertGraves #RupertBrooke #SiegfriedSassoon #WarLiterature #WarPoetry #WilfredOwen #WorldWarI #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2874-en/

#396 - https://boxd.it/NpS #2025MovieMarathon #Cinemastodon #War #Drama #FirstWorldWar #Movies Quite good story and looks great on the screen.

There are, of course, many more – including the rise and fall of the Achaemenid Empire, the conquests of Alexander the Great, the Mughal Empire, the Protestant Reformation – but the following collection will only address aspects of the twelve above. #History #Writing #RomanEmpire #Religion #AmericanRevolution #Enlightenment #FirstWorldWar #Printing #Renaissance #SecondWorldWar #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/9-315-en/

Superior weapons can win wars, and during the First World War (1914-18) all sides attempted to gain an advantage over the enemy by producing more and more destructive devices that could be used effectively on land, at sea, and in the air. #History #U-Boat #Aircraft #Artillery #FirstWorldWar #GermanArmy #Germany #Luger #Machine-gun #Mauser #StickGrenade #Weapons #WorldWarI #WWI #Zeppelin #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2860-en/

The Battle of Jutland (31 May to 1 June 1916) was by far the largest naval battle of the First World War (1914-18). #History #BattleOfJutland #FirstWorldWar #NavalWarfare #RoyalNavy #Skagerrak #WorldWarI #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2853-en/

WWI saw the birth of an entirely new form of combat: lone men engaging the enemy in aerial dogfights. #History #AirWar #EdwardMannock #FighterPilot #FirstWorldWar #FrancescoBaracca #GodwinBrumowski #Pilot #ReneFonck #WorldWarI #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2848-en/

The First World War (1914-18) witnessed an arsenal of new weapons as all sides were desperate to gain an advantage, particularly in the static trench warfare of the Western Front. #History #BritishArmy #FirstWorldWar #RoyalFlyingCorps #RoyalNavy #Weapons #WorldWarI #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2847-en/

I'm old enough that I read the original Cadman stories in Victor when I was a kid. They were great fun then, and Andrew Knighton's new Cadman stories are just as enjoyable now.

I enjoy them enough that I re-subscribed to the digital version of Commando Comics just to read it (note - if you subscribe, digital versions can be downloaded as DRM-free PDFs).

The Armstrong Whitworth F.K.10 was a British First World War quadruplane fighter. Testing proved that the additional wings produced too much drag. Of the 50 ordered, only 8 were built. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/armstrong-whitworth-fk-10/ #ArmstrongWhitworthFK10 #aviation #FirstWorldWar #quadraplane #RFC #RNAS #RoyalFlyingCorps #RoyalNavalAirService #WorldWarOne

The Armstrong Whitworth F.K.10 was a British First World War quadruplane fighter developed as part of a brief period of experimental interest in multi-wing aircraft. Designed by the Dutch-born engineer Frederick Koolhoven, the F.K.10 aimed to improve lift and manoeuvrability by stacking four narrow-chord wings in a compact arrangement. Although the concept appeared promising on paper, it emerged late in 1916, just as biplane fighters were proving dominant in both performance and practicality.

The British government placed an order for 50 aircraft, but testing quickly revealed limitations. The additional wings produced more drag than anticipated, reducing performance, while the expected advantages in lift and agility did not materialise. As aviation understanding progressed, designers recognised that the aerodynamic penalties of four-wing layouts outweighed any theoretical benefits. Only five were built of the RFC order, with a further three built for the RNAS. They were not used operationally and the design was not developed further.

The #TraitorsGate at the #TowerOfLondon, adorned with red #poppies during the 2014 #artInstallation 𝘉𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘚𝘸𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘚𝘦𝘢𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘙𝘦𝘥, which commemorated the centenary of the outbreak of World War I. Each of the 888,246 ceramic red #poppies represented one British or Colonial serviceman killed in the Great War.

This year, a smaller installation of the original poppies was displayed until #ArmisticeDay last week. I had planned to share this #gate last #Doorsday but got sidetracked by that stunning Old World #doorway in Seattle I posted instead. 😅

A stone archway entrance to a historic building, framed by light-coloured brickwork. The arched wooden gate, reinforced with black metal, is partially open. The ground in front of the gate is covered in thousands of vibrant red ceramic poppies, spilling outwards in a striking display. The scene evokes a sense of remembrance and tribute.

Already subjected to constant bombardment by artillery, enemy sniper fire, and the awful living conditions, soldiers fighting in the muddy trenches of the First World War did not imagine their situation could get any worse. #History #Warfare #ChlorineGas #FirstWorldWar #GasAttack #MustardGas #PhosgeneGas #Weapon #WWI #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2839-en/
